Open Platform vs Locked-In Competitors

Not all trade software is created equal. See how WorkSkedge's open approach compares to platforms that trap your data.

Two Different Philosophies

Closed platforms want to lock you in. Open platforms want to work with your existing tools.

Closed/Locked-In Platforms

  • API access costs extra ($100+/month)
  • Limited export capabilities
  • Must use their marketplace apps only
  • Data migration nightmares when leaving
  • Forced upgrades to use certain features

WorkSkedge Open Platform

  • Full API access on all plans (even free trial)
  • CSV export on every page
  • Use any app or build your own integrations
  • Complete data export if you ever leave
  • All features available at every tier

Why Open Matters for Your Business

Data freedom means business flexibility.

Never Trapped

If WorkSkedge stops working for you, take your data and go. No negotiation. No fees.

Use Your Existing Tools
