This page compares ClickHome and HomebuilderONE across the same feature set. The table is easy to scan and shows where each platform fits, especially for Australian builders weighing a Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP against a system built around residential workflows.
Quick note about HomebuilderONE: it is an enterprise ERP for residential builders from sa.global, built entirely on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the wider Microsoft cloud (Power Platform, Power BI, Azure). It covers the lifecycle from land acquisition to warranty and is aimed mainly at North American builders running larger, multi-division operations. Sources include the HomebuilderONE product pages, Microsoft's commercial marketplace and independent software directories.
| Feature area | ClickHome | HomebuilderONE | Notes & evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sales & Marketing / Leads | ★★★★★ Specialist lead capture for display homes, lead scoring and a dedicated leads app. | ★★★★☆ Enterprise CRM through Dynamics 365 Sales, with lead and contact management baked into the platform. | HomebuilderONE handles sales and CRM through Dynamics 365 Sales, which is powerful and highly configurable. It is built around North American sales processes, so display-home rostering and Australian lead-scoring workflows are not packaged the way they are in ClickHome. |
| Tenders, Quoting & Selections | ★★★★★ Rapid tendering, selections linked to contracts and online customer selections via MyHome. | ★★★★☆ Estimating, bidding and option management built into the ERP, with trade pricing tied to the budget. | HomebuilderONE includes estimating, bidding and options, with selections managed inside the core platform. ClickHome handles selections-to-contract automation and buyer-facing online selections as a packaged residential module rather than a configured ERP process. |
| Contracts & Pre-construction administration | ★★★★★ Custom workflows, auto-filled contracts and approval routing. | ★★★★★ Robust contract, commitment and approval handling as you would expect from a full Dynamics 365 ERP. | As a Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations ERP, HomebuilderONE manages contracts, commitments and approvals well, with deep configurability. That depth usually means a partner-led setup and longer configuration time than ClickHome's residential workflows. |
| Construction / Field | ★★★★★ Offline field app, call-sheets, drawings and inspections on site. | ★★★★☆ Scheduling and field updates run through Dynamics 365 Field Service and Power Apps. | Because scheduling and site updates run through Field Service and Power Apps, the field experience depends on how it is configured. ClickHome leans into offline capability and richer on-site document packs for supervisors. |
| Supplier / trade portal | ★★★★★ Two-way supplier portal, JobFile apps and compliance features. | ★★★★☆ Centralised trade contracts, schedules, compliance and purchase orders within the ERP. | HomebuilderONE centralises trade and supplier management, including contracts, compliance and purchasing. Supplier collaboration happens inside the Microsoft stack rather than through a dedicated two-way portal like ClickHome's JobFile. |
| Finance control | ★★★★★ Budgeting, forecasting, POs, progress claims and full audit trails. | ★★★★★ Built on Dynamics 365 Finance, with enterprise-grade GL, budgeting, job costing and real-time margin visibility. | Finance is HomebuilderONE's strongest area. Sitting on Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations gives it deep general-ledger, budgeting and commitment controls that suit large, multi-division builders. ClickHome covers budgeting, forecasting and progress claims well, but a full ERP ledger is a different class of tool. |
| Warranty & maintenance (after-care) | ★★★★★ Customer self-service, trade assignment and trend analysis for repeat issues. | ★★★☆☆ Warranty tracking is part of the lifecycle, tied to the customer and job records. | HomebuilderONE tracks warranty as part of its end-to-end coverage. ClickHome adds customer self-service for warranty requests and trend analysis that flags repeat defects, which is more specialised after-care than HomebuilderONE provides out of the box. |
| Customer portal - MyHome | ★★★★★ Branded portal for selections, timelines and warranty requests. | ★★★☆☆ A homeowner portal can be built on the Microsoft Power Platform rather than shipped ready-made. | A buyer or homeowner portal is achievable on the Power Platform, but it is something you build and maintain. ClickHome ships MyHome as a branded portal for selections, build timelines and warranty requests, so the customer experience is ready on day one. |
| Integrations, API & technical | ★★★★★ CHPlus hub with webhooks, Zapier, DocuSign, Mailchimp, HubSpot and partner integrations. | ★★★★★ Native to the Microsoft cloud: Power Platform, Azure, Dataverse, Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, Excel and DocuSign. | If your business already runs on Microsoft, HomebuilderONE fits in cleanly through Power Platform connectors and Azure. The trade-off is that it ties you closely to the Microsoft ecosystem; connecting tools outside that stack leans on Power Platform. ClickHome's CHPlus hub is built for mixed toolchains with webhooks and connectors to Zapier, HubSpot, Mailchimp and more. |
| Admin, security & governance | ★★★★★ Role-based permissions, AD logins, SSO and full audit trails. | ★★★★★ Inherits Microsoft Entra ID for SSO and MFA, plus enterprise governance across the Microsoft cloud. | HomebuilderONE inherits Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) for single sign-on, MFA and enterprise governance, which is a strong fit for large IT teams already standardised on Azure. ClickHome offers role-based permissions, AD logins, SSO and audit trails without requiring the wider Microsoft stack. |
| Reporting, dashboards & analytics | ★★★★★ Financial dashboards, forecasting and deep cross-project metrics. | ★★★★★ Power BI is built in, giving rich cross-project and financial analytics. | Reporting is another HomebuilderONE strength thanks to Power BI. The analytics are rich, though getting full value usually needs Power BI skills in-house or ongoing partner support. ClickHome provides financial dashboards and forecasting that builder teams can run themselves. |
| Mobile & field features | ★★★★★ iPad supervisor app, mobile capture of photos, signatures and defect evidence. | ★★★★☆ Mobile access on web, iOS and Android through Power Apps and Field Service. | HomebuilderONE delivers mobile access via Power Apps and Field Service on iOS and Android, with the field experience shaped by configuration. ClickHome ships a dedicated iPad supervisor app built for capturing photos, signatures and defect evidence on site. |
