Are ArrivePing and Arrivy the same company?

No. ArrivePing (one word) is field service software made by NVC360, a software company in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Arrivy is a separate product from Arrivy Inc. The names are similar because both products are about arrivals; the companies, apps, accounts and support teams are unrelated.

If you're comparing them, the practical differences are in the table above: ArrivePing is priced per driver from $49 a month and assigns jobs automatically; Arrivy is priced per user with a three-user minimum and adds route planning and logistics workflows.

What does your customer see with ArrivePing?

When the technician taps Start Driving, the customer gets a text with a link to a live page: who's coming, an ETA that updates as they drive, and one-tap text or call. The location appears only after the technician marks the job on the way and disappears when they arrive.

See on-my-way text software for the messages and their timing, and all features for the rest of the job.

The customer's live tracking page in a phone browser: 3 min estimated arrival, 0.9 km away, destination 214 Waverley St, and a job timeline showing the request received, the technician assigned and the technician on the way.
