The same all-in-one breadth, shaped for AS 1851 from day one.
AroFlo is a powerful, feature-rich Australian platform, but reviewers note a real learning curve and setup complexity, and pricing is per user across tiers. traqR delivers comparable breadth already shaped for fire protection (AS 1851 routine servicing, fire asset registers, AFSS readiness and a portal for building owners) with simpler onboarding and one flat, all-inclusive price.

AroFlo’s periodic maintenance is generic and configured to your trade. traqR ships with the AS 1851-2012 service tables, fire asset types, pump, hydrant and emergency-lighting test reports, site audits and AFSS readiness already in place.
AroFlo reviewers cite a learning curve and setup complexity. traqR is built to get a fire contractor’s team productive quickly.
AroFlo tiers features and doesn’t advertise a client portal. traqR includes a branded portal where owners and facility managers see compliance documents, AFSS status, service history and defects. It’s on every plan, alongside flat pricing rather than per-user tiers.
Export the register from your current system as a spreadsheet and import it from Excel or CSV, including workbooks with several sheets. Columns are matched automatically, and anything that does not match is kept as custom fields or notes.
Clients come in from CSV, Excel, Numbers or ODS with a preview of every row before anything is added. Staff and stock lists import from spreadsheets too.
Build each contract in the guided service contract quote: sites, AS 1851 services and frequencies, pricing and renewal terms. On approval every visit for the term is planned and the invoices are scheduled.
Print QR tags in your branding, and technicians test against the register in the field app from the first visit.
Yes. traqR offers comparable all-in-one coverage (jobs, scheduling, POs, assets and reporting) pre-shaped for fire with AS 1851 routine servicing, AFSS readiness and test reports, at a simpler setup and flat, all-inclusive pricing rather than per-user tiers.
AroFlo is powerful but reviewers note a learning curve and setup complexity. traqR is designed to be set up and run by a busy fire protection team without specialist training.
No. AroFlo bills per user per month. traqR uses flat tiers by team size, so your price doesn’t rise with every seat.
Every feature, free for 14 days. No credit card required. Run traqR against your current tool on a real AS 1851 contract and decide for yourself.
