TeamProof vs CompanyCam: photos of the job, or proof of the visit?

CompanyCam and TeamProof both put photos on a worker's phone, which is why they end up in the same search. They're aimed at different work. CompanyCam is a photo documentation app built mostly for contractors: roofers, remodelers and trades who need a clean, organized gallery for each project. TeamProof is built for recurring scheduled visits, where the client's question is less "what did it look like?" and more "did anyone come?"

If you're specifically looking to move off CompanyCam, our CompanyCam alternative page goes deeper. This page is the head-to-head.

The core difference

A photo app records what someone captured when they opened the app. It doesn't know a visit was supposed to happen. If nobody shows up at 10 PM, there's no photo, and nothing tells you so.

TeamProof starts from the schedule. It knows who is due at which property and when, so it can notice the absence: one hour after a scheduled start with no check-in, the visit gets a Missed tag and you get an email.

Side by side

CompanyCam is a trademark of its owner; TeamProof isn't affiliated. Check CompanyCam's site for its current features and prices.

Where CompanyCam is stronger

For construction and renovation, CompanyCam's photo tools go much further than ours: project timelines, annotations, photo reports built for insurance and sales. If your work is one-off projects where the photo gallery is the deliverable, CompanyCam is the better fit, and TeamProof doesn't try to match it.

Where TeamProof is stronger

It catches what didn't happen. Because TeamProof knows the schedule, it can tell you about the visit that never started. See missed visit alerts.

It proves presence, not just pictures. Check-in and check-out are checked against the pin of the property, and you get the time on site. GPS is only checked at those two moments, which is easier on worker privacy.

It's priced for big, part-time crews. One plan (see current pricing) covers unlimited workers. Putting every part-time cleaner or seasonal plow operator on a per-seat app adds up quickly.

It protects your team. Clients and subs never see your workers' names, phone numbers or pay.

A night at a commercial building

Here's how a typical night looks in TeamProof. The 9 PM office clean is on the schedule. The cleaner logs in with phone and PIN, taps Check in at the building, and the location matches the pin. They take before photos of the lobby and washrooms, work the checklist, take after photos and check out. The property manager can open the client visit report link the next morning. If no check-in had come by 10 PM, the owner would have had a Missed email and could reassign the visit.

Using both

Some trades companies use CompanyCam for project galleries and TeamProof for recurring maintenance contracts. TeamProof's own homepage says it plainly: already use one? Keep it. TeamProof adds the proof.
