What Workiz costs, what it does better, when to stay, and what moves if you go.
Workiz does not publish a regular price. All three plans (Standard, Pro, Ultimate) say "Request pricing". Get the price in writing. Nexa is $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, tasks and accounting in one suite, so it comes out cheaper as soon as Workiz has cost you more than $279 in total. What Nexa is not: software someone hosts for you with a support desk, and it does not run payroll. If Workiz's strengths below are why you pay for it, stay.
Nexa is $279 once, about $23 a month over its first year. Its Drain Guard reads your expenses (from a linked bank, an imported statement, or ones you type in), finds the charges that repeat, and adds them up by the month. Keep or Cut then walks you through them one at a time. Cancel $23 a month of charges you'd forgotten about and Nexa has paid for itself inside the first year.
It depends on what you find and what you cancel, so we don't promise a number. In our demo data, Drain Guard finds 5 subscriptions adding up to $110.13 a month. That is sample data, not a customer's.

Workiz does not publish a regular price on its pricing page (checked October 2026). All three plans (Standard, Pro, Ultimate) say "Request pricing". Nexa: $279 once, or $458.64 over 3 years with Cloud Sync on all your devices. Ask Workiz for its price in writing and put 3 years of it next to those numbers.
These import into Nexa by file: clients and leads (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); services and price list (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); jobs (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); open invoices (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); open tasks (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); time entries (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); expenses (CSV or Excel (.xlsx)); bank and card transactions (CSV, OFX, QFX, QBO); personal contacts (CSV or vCard (.vcf) — the exports from Google Contacts, Outlook and iCloud); calendar events (.ics — the export from Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, Calendly and most booking tools). Client addresses go in the Notes column for now. You re-enter once: recurring work, online booking. Past invoices and job history stay in Workiz's export as your record.

Workiz does not publish a regular price. All three plans (Standard, Pro, Ultimate) say "Request pricing". Ask for the price in writing and multiply it out over 3 years. Nexa is $279 once.
Your team is large enough that Workiz's plans for bigger teams buy you more than owning the software outright. You want software someone else hosts, with a support desk and a roadmap you can ask for features on. Nexa is software you own and run yourself. You run payroll, with taxes and pay stubs, inside the same tool. Nexa stops at the edge of payroll: it hands your payroll app each person's hours, overtime and pay rate — keep a payroll service.
Partly. Your client list (CSV), expenses (CSV), bank and card history (CSV, OFX, QFX, QBO), contacts and calendar (.ics) import by file. Invoices, jobs and services do not — re-enter the open ones and keep Workiz's export as your record.
It does not run payroll. It stops at the edge: each person's hours, overtime and pay rate per pay period, as a sheet to type from or a CSV for your payroll app. Taxes, pay stubs and paying people stay there. It is not hosted for you: your data lives on your device. Syncing across devices is optional Cloud Sync, $4.99/month. Automated emails (drip sequences, booking reminders, review requests) send only while Nexa is open on one of your devices. There is no server sending them overnight. No Google Calendar or QuickBooks sync. Calendars move by .ics file. Invoices, jobs and your services list do not import. Clients, expenses, bank history, contacts and calendar do; the rest you re-enter once. No vendor support desk or roadmap to lobby — you buy it once and own it.
