Liveforce alternative
Liveforce is established workforce management software for events, agencies and venues, built around recruiting, scheduling, communicating with and paying crew. ForgeCrew is early-access staffing software being planned for agencies that also need to prove the work to clients, with branded recaps and white-label client portals. If you need a live crew system today, evaluate Liveforce directly; if client reporting is how you sell, talk to ForgeCrew.
Early access
Tell the team about your agency and the workflow you want to improve. This is an early-access inquiry; it does not create a live portal or confirm a pilot start date.
What they do
Liveforce says it offers one platform to recruit, schedule, communicate with and pay an event workforce. Its site describes an applicant tracking system, multiple schedules with a private job board, a crew app for mobile or browser, check-in with location and photo, timesheets and payroll-ready reports, and a white-label crew app.
Pricing: Liveforce publishes its plans on its pricing page. Confirm current plans and terms with the provider.
Planned ForgeCrew approach
ForgeCrew is planning a focused workspace for event agencies and field teams: roster, shifts, mobile check-in, field content and client-ready recaps, with white-label client portals for larger accounts. It is in early access, and pricing is scoped per agency; see how ForgeCrew pricing works.
