Short answer: Powered Now is a UK job management app for trades, priced from £28 a month for one user, or £32 to £40 per user a month on its bigger plans, with Making Tax Digital and certificates built in. Unavoidable CRM is priced per business, from £29 a month, and focuses on winning the work: an AI receptionist that answers and books calls, missed-call text back, quote follow-ups and payment chasing. Teams of three or more often pay less with per-business pricing.
