CleanManager

What CleanManager does

CleanManager is a Denmark-based SaaS company that provides a cloud-based, all-in-one management platform for professional cleaning businesses and municipal cleaning departments. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Odense, the platform automates scheduling, time tracking, invoicing, wage calculation, quality audits and client communications in a single integrated system accessible from any device, with a mobile app and NFC-tag-based check-in for field workers. The company serves commercial cleaning service providers ranging from small businesses to larger contractors, Danish municipal cleaning departments, and commercial cleaning contractors bidding on government and private cleaning contracts across Denmark, the UK, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

The product is built on a modular architecture. The base subscription bundles intelligent scheduling, standardized cleaning plans, centralized storage management and a client portal. Six paid add-on modules extend functionality: App with Time Tracking (€67/month) with NFC location verification, Invoice Calculation (€40/month), Wage Calculation (€40/month), Audits (€53/month), Text Messaging (€13/month plus €0.07 per SMS) and CleanCalculator/Quote Calculation (€120/month). Native integrations connect CleanManager to six major accounting platforms — Microsoft Business Central, FreeAgent, QuickBooks, Sage, Uniconta and Xero — to enable one-click invoice and payroll data transfer. The platform is GDPR-compliant and supported by ISAE 3000 annual assurance statements. In August 2025, CleanManager was acquired by Germany-based zvoove and now operates as a subsidiary brand within the zvoove group, with continued focus on Scandinavia and the UK.

CleanManager generates revenue through per-seat recurring subscriptions billed quarterly, with seat prices ranging from €1.50/month for client-portal users to €40/month for administrators, plus the six monthly add-on module fees. The go-to-market combines product-led growth (self-serve 14-day free trial with no credit card required, a custom subscription builder on the website) with sales-assisted onboarding via dedicated personal advisors, online setup sessions and 15-minute introductory calls. Distribution is primarily direct via localized websites for each served market, with no disclosed reseller or channel-partner network.

Direct peers

• Jobber: Canadian field-service management SaaS serving cleaning, landscaping, and home-service SMBs with scheduling, invoicing, and mobile time tracking. Closely comparable to CleanManager in target customer (small cleaning/service businesses) and core feature set (scheduling, mobile app, accounting integrations).
• Housecall Pro: US-based field-service management SaaS for home-service businesses including cleaning, plumbing, and HVAC. Comparable in modular pricing, mobile field-worker app, and SMB self-serve onboarding motion targeting the same operational pain points (scheduling, dispatch, invoicing).
• ServiceM8: Australian field-service management SaaS targeting small trade and cleaning businesses with mobile job management, quoting, and invoicing. Comparable in vertical focus on cleaning/trades SMBs, mobile-first design, and recurring per-user subscription model.

Broad incumbents

• Deputy: Larger workforce-management SaaS covering scheduling, time tracking, and shift management across multiple industries including cleaning and hospitality. Comparable on the scheduling and mobile time-tracking features but operates as a horizontal platform rather than a cleaning-specialized vertical.
• ServiceTitan: Large US field-service management platform primarily serving residential trades but expanding into janitorial and commercial cleaning. Comparable end-customer use cases (scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, payroll) but at a much larger scale and price point than CleanManager.
• WorkWave: Established field-service and last-mile SaaS provider offering scheduling, routing, and CRM for service businesses including cleaning and janitorial. Comparable in serving cleaning-industry customers with route-and-schedule optimization, though at higher complexity and price tier.

Emerging players

• Connecteam: Mobile-first employee management and workforce app covering scheduling, time clock, checklists, and internal communication. Overlaps with CleanManager's mobile app, time tracking, and cleaning-plan checklist features for cleaning and facility-services SMBs.
• CleanCloud: Vertical SaaS for laundry, dry-cleaning, and garment-care businesses offering POS, route management, and customer notifications. Comparable as a cleaning-industry vertical SaaS but addresses a different sub-segment (laundry shops vs. contract cleaners).
• OptimoRoute: Route planning and field-ervice optimization SaaS used by cleaning and maintenance companies to schedule visits and dispatch mobile crews. Comparable in solving cleaning-company scheduling and field-dispatch workflows, though focused on routing rather than full business management.
• Zuper: Field-service management SaaS targeting cleaning, janitorial, and facility-maintenance businesses with scheduling, mobile app, and customer portals. Comparable in vertical focus and feature set (mobile workforce, client portal, job scheduling) for cleaning-industry customers.
