What's included
built for your business
Clients with many locations, each with its own contacts, access notes, documents and history.
Recurring service visits every month, quarter, six months or year.
Your own service checklist with Done or N/A per item, notes and photos, issued from the visit.
Reactive callouts on the same calendar, with job requests from clients through the portal.
Motors, sensors and control boards as stock items, with purchase orders and low-stock alerts.
Client order (PO) numbers carried from the job onto the invoice.
Automated gates, barriers and doors need regular servicing, fast repairs and clear records for the client. HiveSuite keeps every site, service visit, callout and invoice together, from the first contract to the hundredth visit.
Each client can have any number of locations, each with its own contacts, access notes and warnings, documents, history and site logs. Add an optional case handler, such as the facilities manager, and choose who receives job messages.
Set up recurring service visits monthly, every six months, annually or on a custom interval (for example every three months), with recurring invoices to match. Job types can require a service record before a visit can be completed.
HiveSuite does not include a ready-made gate or barrier service template, and its templates are not certified against any safety standard. Build your own in Certificate Studio, with checklist items marked Done or N/A, notes, up to six photos per item and signatures, issued from the visit and emailed to the client.
Book reactive callouts alongside planned work on HivePlanner. Clients can raise job requests through the Customer Portal, with photos. Quote bigger repairs with interactive quotes accepted online.
Track parts as stock with low-stock alerts and supplier purchase orders, and log parts used on each job. Record the client's order (PO) number on the job so it carries onto the invoice.
Engineers use HiveCrew on their phone to see their own jobs, site notes and photos, tap On my way and Arrived, log time, record materials and add photos and notes as they work. They see only what you allow. The native Android app works offline and syncs each change when it reconnects. On iPhone, HiveSuite runs as an installable web app that needs a connection while the native iOS app awaits App Store approval.
Working on powered gates and barriers on live sites usually needs RAMS. Generate RAMS (risk assessments and method statements) from the job using HiveSuite's templates, pre-filled with the customer and site, or build your own in Certificate Studio. Store documents you reuse in the document library, attach them to jobs so your team sees them in HiveCrew, and share them with clients through the Customer Portal. See RAMS software.
HiveSuite is UK-built, priced in GBP including VAT, and every plan includes every feature. Plans start at £34.99 per month, with a 30-day free trial and no credit card required. See pricing.

"I can literally ask 'who hasn't paid me yet' and get the answer in seconds."
Typos? Doesn't matter. If you're running everything from your phone, this just works.
"HiveSuite is by far the easiest management tool I've used for a small business."
Working directly with the developers to shape new features has made a real difference to how I run things.
