Key Differences
Win the lead before you schedule the job
Swyft is built to manage jobs after they're booked. FollowFire is built to get the booking in the first place. When a homeowner submits a contact form at 9 PM, FollowFire texts them within 60 seconds — before any competitor even wakes up to call in the morning. You can't schedule a job you never won.
First responder wins 78% of service jobs
Studies show the first contractor to respond to an online lead wins 78% of the time. FollowFire ensures you're always first — whether you're on a job, driving, or asleep. Every new lead gets an instant, personalized text. No lead sits unanswered.
Stack them for a complete field ops workflow
The smartest operators use FollowFire to win the lead and Swyft to manage the job. FollowFire handles the 60-second window after a lead comes in; Swyft handles everything from booking confirmation through job completion.

I've been on Swyft for scheduling for a while and it works great for that. But I kept losing leads before I ever got to schedule them. FollowFire fixed that — now every lead gets a text instantly and I book way more jobs.
