Where IssuesId differs

  • Offline-first capture as a core promise, not an add-on
Which should you choose?

An honest recommendation

Choose PlanRadar if…
If you need a single platform that also covers document management, a BIM model viewer and post-handover facility management — and a strong European support footprint matters — PlanRadar’s breadth is a genuine advantage.
Choose IssuesId if…
If your core need is fast on-site defect and QA capture through to a signed compliance handover, you want trades and inspectors included rather than per-seat, and you’re working on Australian projects.
Frequently asked
Is IssuesId an alternative to PlanRadar?
Yes. Both handle construction defects and inspections. PlanRadar is a broader documentation platform that also covers BIM viewing and facility management; IssuesId is focused specifically on the defect-and-QA workflow from on-site capture to signed compliance handover, with per-site pricing that includes trades and inspectors.
How does pricing compare?
PlanRadar prices per paid user across tiers (with free sub-contractor and watcher seats). IssuesId prices per active site, so every inspector, builder and sub-contractor is included without per-seat fees. Which is cheaper depends on how many users touch each job — check both vendors for current numbers.
Do both work offline on site?
Both offer offline use. IssuesId is offline-first by design — capturing defects, photos and voice notes with no signal is a core part of the product, syncing automatically on reconnect.
