Transparent Pricing for Every Need

Implementation is surprisingly fast because we designed the platform so you can start generating value from day one. For small and medium companies on the Starter or Professional plan, you can be fully operational in under twenty-four hours. The process works like this: first you create your account in five minutes, then add your crane fleet using our guided wizard which takes fifteen to thirty minutes depending on fleet size, then invite your operators who receive an automatic email with clear instructions to activate their profiles, and finally our system immediately begins tracking GPS locations and real-time availability. For Enterprise clients with fleets of more than thirty cranes or legacy system integration needs, we include personalized onboarding with a dedicated account manager who accompanies you during the first thirty days. You don't need to stop current operations to migrate — you can transition gradually, starting with part of your fleet and expanding when comfortable.

Absolutely not, and this is something we're particularly proud of. We designed pLim-LiftGrid with the philosophy that technology should be invisible to the end user. If you know how to use WhatsApp or browse basic websites, you already have all the knowledge needed to operate our platform. The mobile app has large buttons, three-step maximum workflows, and clear messages explaining exactly what to do at every moment. For fleet managers, the desktop dashboard shows all critical information on a single screen. We also include two-minute video tutorials and our support team is available via chat, email, and phone. Most clients tell us their teams fully adopted the platform in the first week without any formal training.

The pricing model is transparent and scalable so you only pay for what you actually use. Each B2B plan has a monthly base price that includes a set number of cranes in your active fleet, plus core platform features. For example, Starter is €199/month including up to 8 cranes, while Professional is €499/month for up to 15 cranes. When your fleet grows, you simply pay an additional fee per extra crane: €29/crane on Starter, €39 on Professional, or €49 on Enterprise. Adding or removing cranes is instant from your admin panel, and billing adjusts automatically on a prorated basis.

Yes, you have full control over your subscription with no lock-ins or penalties. You can upgrade your plan anytime with a single click and the change takes effect immediately with automatic proration. Downgrades apply on your next billing cycle. There's no minimum commitment period on any plan — cancel anytime and service continues until the end of your paid period. We even keep your account and data saved for ninety days in case you change your mind.

No, we are radically transparent with pricing. The price you see is exactly what you'll pay, with no hidden asterisks or surprise charges. The only additional cost beyond the base price is if you add more cranes than included in your tier. We include at no extra cost: unlimited data storage, unlimited team users, regular updates and new features, email and chat support during business hours, and automatic daily backups. There are no implementation costs, setup fees, or activation fees whatsoever. We also charge zero commissions on marketplace transactions.

We accept all major credit and debit cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Maestro. In Europe we also accept SEPA Direct Debit for companies preferring bank transfers, especially convenient for annual plans as it eliminates manual renewals. Payment processing is handled by Stripe, the world's most secure and trusted payment provider, PCI DSS Level 1 compliant — the highest security standard in the payments industry. Your payment data never passes through our servers directly. Enterprise clients with monthly billing over €5,000 can opt for monthly invoice with 30-day net SEPA/SWIFT bank transfer. Annual plan clients receive a 16% discount equivalent to 2 months free. All transactions in EUR (Eurozone) with GBP support for the UK market.

Yes, the larger your operation, the more favorable the pricing. Volume discounts apply automatically on Enterprise plans based on total cranes managed. For 31-50 cranes, the per-crane additional price drops 15% from standard rate. For 51-100 cranes, 25% discount. For 100+ cranes or corporate groups with multiple subsidiaries, we offer fully custom pricing negotiated with our commercial team, typically resulting in 30-45% discounts off list prices. Annual contracts include an additional 16% base discount on top of any volume discount. Corporate groups managing multiple subsidiary companies under one account can reduce effective cost per individual company by up to 60% versus separate contracts.

No, the 14-day free trial requires no credit card or any payment method. Simply create your account with your company email, configure your fleet, and use all features of your chosen plan without restrictions for two full weeks. There are no automatic charges at the end of the trial, ever. If you decide to continue, you choose your plan and add a payment method at that point. If you don't continue, your account stays inactive and data is preserved for 90 days. We believe you should be able to evaluate real platform value without financial pressure. Our numbers back this up: 73% of companies completing the 14-day trial convert to paying customers, meaning the platform generates enough value that the decision is obvious without artificial lock-ins.

Data security is our top priority and we rigorously comply with all European data protection regulations including GDPR. Our infrastructure is hosted on servers physically located in Germany, meaning your data never leaves European territory. We implement multiple security layers: all data encrypted in transit with TLS 1.3 and at rest with AES-256, passwords hashed with bcrypt, automatic daily backups with geo-separated copies. For GDPR: right of access (JSON export), right to be forgotten (48h deletion), data minimization, and full transparency. We never sell data to third parties.

We have redundant, 24/7 monitored architecture designed for maximum availability. Our historical average uptime is 99.7% over the last twelve months, with 99.9% SLA guarantee for Enterprise clients. We use Prometheus and Grafana monitoring checking service health every thirty seconds. During incidents, we activate a public status page with real-time updates every fifteen minutes and publish detailed postmortems. Starter/Professional clients get email support with <4h response time plus live chat. Enterprise clients get 24/7 priority support with <30min response time.

We designed the mobile app with partial offline functionality so your operators can continue working even without signal. When an operator loses connection, they can still view current day information: assigned jobs, schedules, destination addresses, client notes and safety checklists. They can also mark jobs as started/completed, take equipment photos, log hours, and add notes — all while offline. These actions sync automatically when the phone recovers connection. The only feature requiring active connection is real-time GPS tracking, but the device GPS still records routes locally for later sync.

Yes, this is one of the most value-generating features for both you and your clients, dramatically reducing "where is my crane?" calls. We have a customer portal system where you can give limited access to specific clients. When you create a booking, a unique tracking link is automatically generated that you can share via email or WhatsApp. It opens a public page showing the crane location on a map with 60-second auto-refresh, operator name, equipment photo, and estimated arrival time based on current traffic — similar to Uber but for cranes. Some clients report a 70% reduction in status inquiry calls.

This is what differentiates pLim-LiftGrid from basic tracking solutions — we predict when cranes will need maintenance before they fail. The system uses machine learning analyzing multiple real-time variables: actual operating hours via GPS, IoT engine telemetry (temperature, oil pressure, vibration, fuel consumption), historical usage patterns, and past maintenance records. Our AI algorithm predicts with 85% accuracy when critical components will need service in the next 7-14 days. You receive color-coded automatic alerts: green for plannable preventive maintenance, yellow for attention needed soon, red for immediate action. Clients estimate 20-35% annual savings in total maintenance costs.

We are currently operational across the entire European Union with particularly strong presence in Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, and Germany. The platform technically works in any country worldwide since we use global maps and GPS is universal, but our support and documentation are optimized for Europe. In Spain we have the strongest market penetration with deep understanding of local heavy machinery rental regulations. We're expanding to the UK and Nordic countries by end of 2026. Contact us if you're interested in using pLim-LiftGrid in a country where we don't have official presence yet.

The platform is fully translated in seven languages: Spanish, English, Portuguese, French, German, Dutch, and Danish, covering our main operating markets. "Fully translated" means not just buttons and menus, but all documentation, help videos, error messages, email notifications, and support communication. You can switch languages with a single click. We work with professional translators who know heavy machinery industry terminology specifically. Each team member can set their preferred language independently.

pLim-LiftGrid typically pays for itself in the first two to three months. Based on real client data: administrative time savings of 10-15 hours/week (~€1,500/month), fleet utilization increase of 12-20% in billable hours per crane (~€7,600-12,800/month for a 10-crane fleet at €80/hour), and 20-35% reduction in annual maintenance costs via AI prediction. Conservatively summing just the first two benefits gives ~€9,000/month savings versus ~€900/month total cost. That's over 900% ROI.

Yes, we offer multiple integration options. For Professional and Enterprise clients: native integrations with Sage, Contaplus, A3, SAP Business One, and Odoo via bidirectional connectors configured in a 30-minute video call. For proprietary systems: our fully documented RESTful API exposes all main resources (cranes, operators, bookings, invoices, real-time GPS, usage stats). Custom integration projects typically cost €2,000-8,000 and take 4-8 weeks. We also support Zapier and Make for no-code integrations with 3,000+ applications.

Our marketplace connects qualified operators with hiring companies through: intelligent matching algorithm that sends you instant push notifications for fitting jobs (30min-2h head start), ranking and reputation system where 4.5+ star operators get a "Verified Operator" gold badge, digital portfolio (complete profiles get 340% more hiring requests), highlighted search placement and priority notifications on Professional/Premium plans, proactive recommendation when previous clients post similar jobs, and free online training courses on Premium plans. Operators report 40-70% increases in jobs found during the first three months.

It depends on your plan. Basic (€29/month): zero commission, 100% of your billing is yours. Professional (€59/month): also zero commission. Premium (€99/month + 5% commission): the percentage comes with significant benefits including top-10 search placement, access to higher-value premium jobs, included €50,000 liability insurance, and the commission only applies to new marketplace jobs — not recurring work with existing clients. The 5% is dramatically lower than generalist platforms like Freelancer/Upwork (15-20%). If Premium visibility gets you 2 extra €300 jobs per month, that's +€471 net positive.
