Short version
- CompanyCam is a photo app first: unlimited photos organised by project, timelines, galleries you share with homeowners, before-and-after pages and marketing tools. It is excellent at that.
- Daily Site Log is a daily report tool: photos are one section of a dated record that also covers crew, weather, work done, deliveries and delays, sealed as a PDF for the client.
The question is what the photos are for. Marketing and customer updates: CompanyCam. Evidence that a day's work, delay or condition happened: Daily Site Log.
We make Daily Site Log. CompanyCam's prices below are from its own pricing page and third-party reviews, labelled.

Where CompanyCam is better
- Customer-facing photos. Shareable galleries, timelines, showcases and review requests.
- Photo volume and organisation across many small jobs, which suits roofing, remodeling, solar and home services.
- Integrations with CRMs and estimating tools that home-service companies already use.
Where Daily Site Log is better
- The whole day, not only the photos. Crew by trade with hours, equipment, deliveries, weather and delays sit next to the photos, in one dated report.
- Evidence that holds up. Photos taken in the app are stamped with time and GPS and hashed, and the report is sealed with a fingerprint anyone can verify at dailysitelog.com/verify.
- Price. A free plan that includes the PDF, and one flat price for up to 5 people.
Which one should you pick?
- Residential, home services, photos for the homeowner: CompanyCam.
- Commercial or subcontract work where the GC or owner wants a daily report: Daily Site Log.
- You need to win a delay or back-charge dispute: Daily Site Log, because the photos come with the day's record around them.

Frequently asked questions
Is Daily Site Log cheaper than CompanyCam?
Usually. CompanyCam plans run about $63–$199 a month billed annually, plus about $29 a month for each extra user. Daily Site Log is free for one project and 10 reports a month, $19 a month for Pro, and $79 a month for Business with 5 seats.
Does CompanyCam do daily reports?
CompanyCam has report and checklist tools built around photos. It does not structure a daily report the way a daily log does: crew by trade with hours, equipment, deliveries and delays with start, end and impact. Daily Site Log is built around that record.
Which is better for proving what happened on site?
Both timestamp photos. Daily Site Log also records GPS and a SHA-256 hash for each photo taken in the app, puts the photos inside a dated daily report, and seals the PDF with a fingerprint anyone can check at dailysitelog.com/verify.
Which is better for marketing my work to homeowners?
CompanyCam. Its galleries, project timelines, showcases and review requests are built for customer-facing use, which Daily Site Log does not try to do.
