UpKeep review

UpKeep ranks third on clear pricing and a broad feature set, with one catch for PM-focused buyers. Essential costs $24 per user a month and covers unlimited work orders, unlimited locations and Nova AI with 250 credits a month, but the comparison table shows preventive maintenance on Premium, not Essential. Premium, at $55 per user a month, adds UpKeep Studio, PM scheduling, custom checklists, parts and inventory with costing, time and labor tracking and 30 days of analytics history. Professional and Enterprise are quoted and add mobile offline mode, an external request portal, full analytics history, multi-site modules, workflow automation, reliability tracking, purchase orders, API access, SSO and custom roles. AI features include a smart scheduler, voice fill, a smart checklist builder and work order closeout notes. UpKeep also lists paid onboarding, including a $1,500 Quickstart implementation and training package. Both self-serve plans offer a free trial without a credit card.
