How the Index Is Measured.

  • Source. Every price was read on 2026-10-04from the vendor's own public pricing page, in a browser, from an Edmonton, Alberta connection — so the page shown is the one an Alberta buyer sees. Where a page has a team-size, billing or currency selector, each setting was read separately. The page text was saved word for word, and every number in the index is checked against that saved text before publishing.
  • Currency. Where the vendor publishes Canadian-dollar prices (Pipedrive, Zoho CRM, monday CRM, Fieldwire, ServiceM8, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage, FreshBooks), those are used as published. US-dollar prices are converted at the Bank of Canada daily average rate of 1.4246 for 2026-10-02, the last rate published before capture. Where a page shows “$” without naming a currency, the note under that table says how it was read.
  • Billing basis. The tables use the monthly equivalent of annual billing where the vendor offers it, because almost every vendor publishes that figure; otherwise the month-to-month price. The CSV carries the month-to-month figures too.
  • What is left out. Introductory discounts and limited-time offers, sales tax, payment-processing fees, one-time onboarding fees (named in the notes where the page states them) and optional add-ons. Where a vendor publishes no price for a size, the index says so and does not estimate one.
  • Team size. Columns count the people who need a login (or, for property management, rental units, and for fleet software, vehicles). Not every tool needs every employee — the worked example states the login count it assumes for each job.
  • Not included this edition. CoConstruct — Being retired into Buildertrend; no plan is on sale. Listing a product is not a statement that it is sold in Canada or suits a given business; check with the vendor.
  • Updates. The index is re-read every quarter; the next edition is due January 2027. Earlier editions stay published so changes can be tracked over time. A vendor or reader who spots an error can reach us through the contact page.
