MotionOpsConoce primero MotionOps

CompanyCam is the gold standard for job site photo documentation.
MotionOps includes the same GPS-tagged, annotated photo workflows - plus everything CompanyCam can't do: scheduling, invoicing, change orders, payroll prep, and HR management.
One tool instead of two bills.

The Core Difference

One is a photo app. One runs your entire operation.

CompanyCam does one thing exceptionally well: capturing,
organising, and sharing job site photos.
MotionOps does that - and also runs your scheduling,
invoicing, change orders, payroll, and HR.
Most contractors using CompanyCam are already paying
for a second tool to do the rest.
MotionOps makes that second tool unnecessary.

MotionOps

Full operations - including photo documentation

  • GPS-tagged, timestamped photos with drawing and annotation tools built in
  • Scheduling, dispatch, change orders, invoicing, and payroll - all in the same platform
  • Before/during/after photo workflows with guided job-closing to prevent unbilled items
  • HR tools: employee documents, skills tracking, days-off management
  • Timesheet QA, overtime tracking, and payroll-ready exports
  • One subscription - no need to pay separately for a photo app and an FSM tool

CompanyCam

The best photo app in the business - nothing more

  • Industry-leading photo and video capture with GPS tags, timestamps, and project organisation
  • Outstanding AI tools: auto-generated reports, captions, and social posts from job photos
  • No scheduling, no dispatching, no invoicing, no CRM, no change orders
  • No time tracking, no payroll prep, no HR document management
  • Most users pay for CompanyCam plus a separate FSM - two subscriptions, two logins
  • Pro plan requires a 3-user minimum - solo operators pay for seats they don't use

Where MotionOps Goes Further

Everything CompanyCam does - and the platform it can't be

CompanyCam is excellent at visual documentation.
But running a contracting business requires more than photos -
and every feature CompanyCam lacks is something MotionOps has already built.

HR management - not just photo access

CompanyCam manages users for photo access. MotionOps manages employees - storing documents, tracking skills, handling days-off approvals, and running performance leaderboards. Your team is more than just who has login credentials.

Change orders & full paperwork

CompanyCam has no estimating, no change orders, and no contracts. MotionOps captures every scope change with a customer-signed change order, manages version-tracked contracts, and includes liability waivers - so your photo evidence of the job sits alongside the legal paperwork for it.

Stop paying for two tools

Most contractors using CompanyCam also pay for a separate FSM for scheduling and invoicing. MotionOps includes both - GPS-tagged annotated photo workflows alongside scheduling, invoicing, change orders, and payroll. One subscription, one login, one place for everything.

Scheduling, dispatch & crew management

CompanyCam has no scheduling capability at all. MotionOps gives you color-coded multi-crew dispatch, skills-based assignment, GPS clock-in/out, and days-off integration - so your photos live inside the same workflow that manages your entire day.

Timesheet QA & payroll prep workflow

CompanyCam has no time tracking whatsoever. MotionOps geo-stamps every clock in and out, runs manager timesheet approval, tracks overtime, and exports payroll-ready CSVs - while your before/after photos document exactly what work was done during those hours.

Photos connected to the full job lifecycle

In CompanyCam, photos are organised by project - but they live separately from your proposals, invoices, and change orders. In MotionOps, every photo is part of the job record that includes the estimate, the signed contract, the change orders, and the final invoice.

Pricing

One bill - not two

CompanyCam Pro costs $79/mo minimum for 3 users - and that only covers photos.
Add a mid-tier FSM for scheduling and invoicing (at least $100 more)
and you're already past what MotionOps Go costs, with fewer features and two separate systems to manage.

Most CompanyCam users still need a separate FSM for scheduling, invoicing, and CRM - doubling their software cost and adding a second login.

You want one login, one support team, and one platform that does everything

FAQ

Yes - especially if you're paying for CompanyCam plus a separate field service tool. CompanyCam is the gold standard for job site photo documentation, and MotionOps includes the same GPS-tagged, annotated photo workflows. The difference is everything around them: scheduling, invoicing, change orders, payroll prep, and HR - all in one platform, so one subscription replaces two.

Yes - that's the main reason contractors switch. Most CompanyCam users also pay for a separate FSM to handle scheduling, invoicing, and CRM. MotionOps does both: GPS-tagged, annotated before/during/after photo workflows alongside dispatch, proposals, change orders, and payroll. One login, one bill, one place where your photos live inside the actual job record.

Most switch to stop paying for and managing two tools. The pull toward MotionOps is consolidation: photo documentation, scheduling, invoicing, change orders, time tracking, and HR in a single platform. Instead of photos sitting in one app and the job's paperwork in another, every photo is attached to the estimate, contract, change orders, and invoice for that job.

Yes. MotionOps includes GPS-tagged, timestamped photo and video capture, draw-and-annotate tools, before/during/after organization, project galleries, tags, descriptions, and unlimited storage - the core documentation workflow CompanyCam is known for. It then connects those photos directly to proposals, invoices, and change orders, which a standalone photo app can't do.

For most teams, the combined cost is lower. CompanyCam Pro starts at $79/mo with a 3-user minimum and covers photos only. Add a mid-tier FSM for scheduling and invoicing - usually $100+/mo - and you're past what MotionOps Go costs, with fewer features and two systems to manage. MotionOps puts it all in one plan.

No - that's the point of the move. MotionOps replicates the core photo documentation workflow (GPS tags, timestamps, annotations, before/after organization, galleries) and adds the operational tools around it. The trade-off to weigh is CompanyCam's photo-marketing and AI report features; for many contractors, having photos tied to the full job record outweighs those extras.

Yes - a 14-day free trial. A credit card is required to start, but you can cancel within 14 days without being charged. Monthly subscriptions can be canceled anytime; the discounted annual plan is billed upfront and is non-refundable if canceled before the year ends.

UPGRADE - You can upgrade anytime. For monthly plans, the new price starts right away. If you choose annual plans, the total amount is charged upfront upon signing up as a client and is non-refundable if you cancel before the year is complete.

DOWNGRADE - For monthly plans, downgrades start with your next billing cycle. For example, if you signed up on the 1st of the month and requested a downgrade on the 15th, the new pricing will apply beginning on the 1st of the following month.

Yes, MotionOps has a mobile app with no additional charge. This app has a variety of features that allow you to manage your MotionOps account through your smartphone or tablet. With the app, you can monitor your workers' activities, keep track of their progress, and stay up-to-date on your project management tasks. The mobile app is designed to be user-friendly, intuitive, and easy to use, making it an excellent tool for managing your business even while you're on the go.
