All-in-one CRM and scheduling built for service businesses
Thryv is a US-listed (NASDAQ: THRY) small-business platform built around the service economy: home services, salons, clinics, professional services. It bundles CRM, online scheduling, payments, marketing automation, reputation management, websites and a centralised messaging inbox. We picked it because it is one of the few platforms shaped specifically for the owner-operator who books appointments, sends invoices and answers reviews from a single dashboard.
You set up your services, calendar, payment processor and marketing assets, then wire up the Command Center inbox to consolidate messages from email, SMS, Facebook, Instagram, Google Business Profile and your website chat. Clients self-serve through a portal: book, pay, sign documents, message you back. Marketing automation runs reactivation campaigns, review requests, and birthday offers. Reputation tools push for reviews and respond to them centrally.
Thryv has been investing heavily in AI assistants for messaging, content and customer service.
Thryv has reshaped pricing toward a free Command Center inbox plus paid bundles. The full Business Center / Marketing Center tiers are quoted via sales; widely reported figures place Plus around $228/month for 5 users, Professional and Unlimited materially higher, often with annual contracts. SMS and marketing-message volume can be billed separately. Get the quote in writing and clarify contract length before signing.
