That&#8217;s serious enterprise infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>SalesOn isn&#8217;t trying to out-enterprise that.

SalesOn fits SME and mid-size distributors who want to start selling within days at a published price. FieldAssist fits large enterprise FMCG operations that need offline-first execution and the FAi analytics suite, with the time and budget for a bigger implementation.<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\"><div class=\"faq-q\">Why is FieldAssist&#8217;s pricing not public?<\/div><div class=\"faq-a\">FieldAssist sells primarily to large enterprise clients, where pricing typically depends on user count, modules and rollout scale, so it&#8217;s quoted rather than published. Some smaller-business reviewers have flagged the pricing as steep for their size \u2014 worth weighing if you&#8217;re a smaller operation.<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\"><div class=\"faq-q\">How long does setup actually take with each one?<\/div><div class=\"faq-a\">SalesOn includes a 30-day onboarding window with basic training and data import help, with no setup fee. FieldAssist&#8217;s enterprise timeline isn&#8217;t published, so confirm it directly \u2014 offline sync and large hierarchies usually mean a longer rollout.<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\"><div class=\"faq-q\">Does offline mode matter for field reps?<\/div><div class=\"faq-a\">If your reps work routes with patchy or no network, offline capture prevents lost orders. If your team mostly operates with steady connectivity, it matters less in daily practice.<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"source-box\" id=\"sources\"><h3>Where this came from<\/h3><p>Last checked June 2026.
