Comparison
Looking for a YourTradebase alternative?
Short answer: if you want one app to quote, schedule and invoice, YourTradebase is a solid choice at £29 a month. If what you actually want is the follow-up handled, quotes chased, invoices reminded, reviews asked for, next year's service booked, that's Tradechase.

The two apps at a glance
YourTradebase is UK software for trade businesses built around creating work: quotes, scheduling, invoicing and taking payment. It includes automatic email follow-ups on quotes and payment reminders on overdue invoices.
Tradechase starts from the other end. It assumes you already have a way to quote and invoice, and does the part most tradespeople never get round to: the follow-up. Quotes that went quiet, invoices that are due, the review ask after the job, and the reminder when next year's service comes around. By email and SMS.

Where YourTradebase is strong
No spin: it's a well-established app with a proper quote builder, scheduling, team features and online card payments, and its automatic quote follow-ups are a genuinely good feature that most job apps still lack. If your problem is "I need one system to run quoting and invoicing", it deserves a look.
Where Tradechase is different
- Follow-up is the whole product, not a feature. Quotes, invoices, reviews and service reminders in one place. See quote follow-ups.
- SMS as well as email. Texts get read on site, in the van, same day.
- Nothing to migrate. You don't move your quoting or accounts. Log what you sent, from any tool or none, and Tradechase chases it. See how "works alongside" works.
- Payment reminders wait for you. Tradechase lines them up; you send with one tap. A money message never goes out without your say-so.
- The after-job loop. Review requests and next-year reminders keep your name in the customer's head between jobs.
Common questions
Is Tradechase a replacement for YourTradebase?
Only if follow-up is what you are buying. YourTradebase is a full quoting, scheduling and invoicing app. Tradechase focuses on follow-ups: quotes, payment reminders, review requests and service reminders. Many people keep their existing quoting tool and use Tradechase alongside it.
Can Tradechase follow up quotes I sent from YourTradebase?
Yes. Log the customer, amount and date in about 20 seconds and Tradechase runs the follow-up. There is no integration between the two apps; you enter the details yourself.
Does YourTradebase send SMS follow-ups?
SMS sending is not mentioned on the YourTradebase website as of July 2026. Their quote follow-ups and payment reminders are described as email messages. Tradechase sends follow-ups by both email and SMS.
