This comparison reflects Tradify's publicly described product and pricing as of 8 July 2026. Features and prices change, so check their current details before you decide. Manifold is a workflow and record-keeping tool, not a regulator; gas safety work must be carried out by an appropriately Gas Safe registered engineer, and camera capture suggests values you confirm.

Why gas engineers pick Manifold.

Everything below is live in Manifold today, the reasons a gas engineer chooses a purpose-built tool over a simple all-trade one.

  • Purpose-built for Gas Safe

    CP12s and every UK gas record are the product, with the check flow, appliance registers and defects an engineer actually works through, not a generic job with a certificate attached.

  • Camera capture on site

    FlueScan reads the analyser and PlateScan reads the data plate; you confirm the values. Built for no-signal lofts, basements and vans.

  • The renewal lifecycle, included

    60, 30 and 7-day reminders then overdue, plus a compliance worklist, so renewals chase themselves rather than living on a spreadsheet.

  • A lower entry price

    From £15 per engineer per month, with a 30-day free trial and no card, so you can try it on real jobs before you commit.

  • Open, not locked in

    A read-only API and signed webhooks come as standard, with a Power BI / OData connector on Growth and up, so your data stays yours.

Tradify vs Manifold: common questions.

Is Manifold a good Tradify alternative?

For gas and heating engineers, yes. Tradify is a simple, popular all-trade job manager; Manifold is purpose-built for the UK Gas Safe workflow, with offline camera capture, the full renewal lifecycle and an entry price of £15 per engineer per month. If most of your work is gas, the gas-specific tool removes the parts you'd never use.

Can I move my data from Tradify to Manifold?

Yes. Export your customers and properties from Tradify as a CSV and import them into Manifold, with a dry-run preview, duplicate handling and one-click undo. For a large book, ask us about a concierge migration.

How does the pricing compare?

Tradify publishes a flat fee of around £34 per user per month. Manifold publishes from £15 per engineer per month with a 30-day free trial and no card. Check the current figures on each site before deciding, as pricing changes.

Does Tradify do more than Manifold in some areas?

It can, for breadth. Tradify serves every trade and, for example, submits Gas Safe notifications from the app. Manifold trades that breadth for gas-specific depth: the CP12 engine, offline capture and the compliance lifecycle. The right pick depends on whether you want an all-trade tool or a gas one.

Can I trial Manifold alongside Tradify?

Yes. Start the free trial, run both on real jobs, and switch over only once you're happy nothing is missing.
