The Verdict

OrangeQC is the better pure inspection tool: if your job is auditing quality for clients and you already run scheduling and billing elsewhere, $250/month is a fair price for it. If you are a cleaning company that needs inspections as part of running the accounts — visits, proof, portal, invoices — FacilityCare IQ covers all of it from a free plan.

What Is OrangeQC?

OrangeQC is a janitorial inspection app built for quality-assurance programmes: inspectors score areas on a phone using APPA-style weighted scoring, attach photos, and share reports with clients. As of September 2026 it is priced per inspector: Starter is $250/month including 2 inspectors, Standard is $500/month including 10, and each additional inspector is $50/month, with a 30-day free trial and no setup fee.
