Another way to look at a Skimmer alternative

Leaving Skimmer starts with the week you already drive.

A price sheet takes five minutes. Drive time takes your actual stops. Start there. The Skimmer math is further down, and it will still be there after you see the week.

6hours

31%.

We cut 6 hours of weekly drive time out of a real 139-pool route. 31 percent, measured on road time against the operator's own hand-built routes.

That was one route. 139 pools. Road time, against hand-built routes the operator already used. Your map is different. The audit is how you get your own number, without a sales call and without a card.

What we need from a Skimmer route.

Bring the export you already download. Then tell us three plain things:

  • Which days you service.
  • Which pools cannot move off their day.
  • How many techs are actually on the road.

We rebuild the week from addresses and visit frequency, then lock the pools that cannot move. You get one page: the week today, the week reassigned, and a short list of easy moves. It takes us a day or two.

You do not have to switch to read that page.

That one 139-pool route, counted by day. 31 + 34 + 22 + 29 + 23 = 139.

Then look at the bill, with their page open.

Skimmer Scaling Up is published at $2 per serviced location per month. At 300 pools that is $600 a month. EZPool is $39 a month, flat, any size, unlimited users.

Both can be true at once: the week has slack, and the software bill climbs when you sign pools. The audit does not require you to care about the second one.

Skimmer Scaling Up is listed at $2 per serviced location per month, starting at $98 a month. That minimum includes 49 locations, so 300 serviced locations is 300 × $2 = $600 a month. Getting Started is $1 per serviced location and is described for companies up to 49 pools a month. Checked November 11, 2026 on Skimmer's pricing page. Skimmer can change these prices.

Staying on Skimmer is a fine outcome.

Read the page. Move a few pools inside the software you have, or move none. If you want EZPool after that, signup is a separate step. The first 5 companies pay $0 a month, then it is $39. If you do not want it, you still keep the audit.

First 5 companies: $0/mo.

Then $39/mo. Flat. Any size. Unlimited users.

Five companies. After those 5, the price is $39 a month. That is the whole offer.

Payments run through EZPool.
