Comparison
CleanFlow vs WhatsApp
WhatsApp works for two cleaners. Past that, it becomes a chaotic, unsearchable audit-trail nightmare.
Almost every cleaning team starts by allocating jobs over WhatsApp. It's fast, everyone has it and it feels free.
But WhatsApp was never designed to run a business. Here's where the wheels start to come off, and where a proper cleaning app takes over.
In one line
WhatsApp is fine for a two-person operation. Beyond that, you need real job allocation, real accountability and real audit trails.
