SafetyCulture alternatives: where to go after the Mitti rename
Six destinations, one for each reason to leave, and a seven-step plan that starts with the export.
The short answer: GoAudits if you want the same kind of audit app for less per seat, Kizeo Forms if the 5-template cap is the problem and you work in Europe, MaintainX if inspections lead to repairs, Jotform for a handful of simple reports, Fulcrum for map-based field data, Lumiform if you want a look-alike and don't mind a quote. One thing before you choose: Mitti Exporter, the bulk export tool, is Premium and Enterprise only. Export first, downgrade after. We compared the six destinations and checked their prices for 2026.
The ranking is editorial: a sponsored placement is always flagged on its card, and no affiliate link changes a rating.
Why teams leave SafetyCulture, now called Mitti
SafetyCulture earned its place: inspections that work offline on a phone, and a free plan that covers 10 people. Users rate the mobile app well. They leave over the template cap, the per-seat price, and a few things they only discover on the way out. Six reasons, checked for 2026.
A free plan capped at 5 templates
The free plan is generous on seats (up to 10) but allows only 5 active inspection templates. A team with one checklist per site, per shift or per regulation hits that wall fast. Everything beyond it means Premium for every seat.
$24 a seat, and the price went up
Premium costs $24 per seat per month billed yearly, $29 month to month, before tax. Mitti's own FAQ explains that annual Premium moved to $24 from the first annual renewal from 2024 onward. For 10 seats that's $2,880 a year, and users say there's no multi-seat discount.
The rename to Mitti
In 2026 SafetyCulture became Mitti. The pricing page and help center redirect to mitti.com and help.mitti.com. Nothing changes in your account, but teams who search for the app or the help articles under the old name now land elsewhere, and the switch is a natural moment to review the contract.
Bulk export is a paid feature
Mitti Exporter, the tool that pulls out all your inspections, templates, schedules and actions, works only on Premium and Enterprise. Drop to the free plan before exporting and you lose the easy way out.
Sync and schedules frustrate users
Field users praise the offline inspections but report slow sync when several inspections upload on a weak network. Others mention features that changed without notice, and the lack of a tool to migrate schedules.
Support and account closure
Recent reviews on Trustpilot are few (4 over 12 months) but all 1 star: trouble closing an account or deleting an organization, back-and-forth with support, all licenses paid upfront. One reviewer sums it up: "The software itself is great but the customer service is extremely lacking." A thin sample, but a consistent one.

SafetyCulture alternatives, tool by tool
For each tool: why switch to it, who it's for, its catch, how to migrate from SafetyCulture, and what it costs. Prices are the ones on each vendor's pricing page in 2026, in US dollars except Kizeo Forms, which only publishes euro prices. We left out Xenia, Clappia, Connecteam and Auditus: we couldn't confirm their prices on an official page.
GoAudits: the cheaper per-seat audit app
Lowest price per seatWhy switch to GoAudits. It does the same core job as SafetyCulture: checklists on a phone, photos, scoring, instant reports and action plans. The difference is the bill. Starter costs $10 per user per month and Enterprise $30, both billed yearly (the yearly price is 20% below monthly, which GoAudits doesn't display). A team paying $24 a seat at Mitti cuts the line by more than half on Starter.
Who it's for. Multi-site operations that audit the same things every week: retail, restaurants, hotels. Teams that want a familiar audit app, not a new way of working.
Who it's not for. An account with dozens of active templates. Starter stops at 10 checklist templates and one entity.
The catch. Starter also caps you at 25 sites and 2 photos per question. Roles, audit scheduling, Word and Excel exports and the API all sit on Enterprise. SSO is on quote. So a team that needs scheduling lands on $30 a seat, more than Mitti Premium.
How to migrate. GoAudits doesn't document an import from SafetyCulture. Rebuild your 10 most used templates during the 14-day trial (no card, all features), audit one site with them, and compare reports side by side. There's also a 60-day money-back guarantee.
- Starter
- $10/user/mo, yearly
- Enterprise
- $30/user/mo, yearly
- Trial
- 14 days, no card
- Catch
- 10 templates on Starter
Kizeo Forms: unlimited forms for European field teams
Unlimited formsWhy switch to Kizeo Forms. It's a French mobile forms app used for field reports, inspections and maintenance rounds. Its Smart plan includes unlimited forms and data, and offline mode is included on Smart, so the template cap that pushes many teams off the free Mitti plan disappears. The vendor says the data is encrypted and stored in Europe.
Who it's for. Construction, maintenance and QHSE teams with operations in Europe, who want a European vendor and many different forms.
Who it's not for. A US team that wants dollar billing. Kizeo publishes its prices in euros only.
The catch. Smart costs €15 per user per month billed yearly (€22 month to month), Business €25 (€37 month to month), before VAT. Every user on an account has to be on the same plan, so you can't mix cheap seats and power seats.
How to migrate. Kizeo doesn't mention any form import. Use the 15-day trial (full features, no card, up to 10 users) to rebuild your main templates, then send two technicians out with both apps. After the trial, the account goes on pause rather than being deleted.
- Smart
- €15/user/mo, yearly
- Business
- €25/user/mo, yearly
- Trial
- 15 days, up to 10 users
- Catch
- one plan for all users
MaintainX: when inspections feed maintenance work
Inspections plus CMMSWhy switch to MaintainX. In SafetyCulture, a failed check becomes an action. In MaintainX, it becomes a work order in a maintenance system. Procedures carry inspection points and signatures, and a failed item can trigger a corrective action on its own. If your inspections mostly exist to catch broken equipment, that loop saves the copy-paste between two tools.
Who it's for. Plants, facilities and fleets where the inspector and the maintenance team work on the same assets.
Who it's not for. Pure audit work (food safety, store standards) with no equipment behind it. You'd pay for a CMMS you don't use.
The catch. Basic is free forever but allows only 2 work orders with procedures and 2 active recurring work orders. Essential costs $20 per user per month billed yearly ($25 month to month), Premium $65 ($75). Enterprise is on quote. Requester accounts, for people who only report problems, are free. Essential only allows 3 work orders with attached procedures; unlimited procedures start on Premium ($65).
How to migrate. Turn each SafetyCulture template into a procedure, then attach it to the asset it inspects. Rebuild your schedules as recurring work orders: they won't come across from SafetyCulture anyway.
- Free
- Basic, 2 procedure work orders
- Essential
- $20/user/mo, yearly
- Best for
- inspections tied to assets
- Catch
- 3 procedure work orders on Essential
Jotform: for simple inspection forms and PDF reports
Simplest formsWhy switch to Jotform. Some teams use SafetyCulture as an expensive form tool: a checklist, a photo, a signature, a PDF sent by email. Jotform does that well and has a free plan. Its PDF output turns each submission into a clean report without extra work. We rate it 4.0/5 in our Jotform review.
Who it's for. A small team, or one person, filing a few inspection reports a week.
Who it's not for. A real audit program. Jotform has no audit scoring and action follow-up like SafetyCulture's.
The catch. Plans are capped by submissions, and up to the Gold plan an account has a single user. Bronze is $34 a month billed yearly ($39 month to month) for 1,000 submissions a month; Gold is $99 a month billed yearly. A team of 10 inspectors doesn't fit the model.
How to migrate. Rebuild each checklist as a form, add a PDF template, and share the form link with the field. Nothing to import: past inspections stay in your SafetyCulture export. Our Jotform alternatives page helps if it feels too narrow.
- Free
- $0, low quotas
- Bronze
- $34/mo, yearly
- Our rating
- 4.0/5
- Catch
- one user up to Gold
Fulcrum: for geolocated field data
Maps and field dataWhy switch to Fulcrum. When the location matters as much as the answer, Fulcrum fits better than an audit app. It's built for field data collection on maps: utility networks, environmental surveys, public works. The Elite plan adds AI features, ArcGIS Enterprise, the API, SSO, SCIM and webhooks.
Who it's for. GIS-heavy teams, utilities, environmental consultants and local governments.
Who it's not for. A small team that just wants to replace a checklist app. It costs too much for that.
The catch. Professional is $43 per license per month and Elite $55, Enterprise on quote. Billing is yearly only, with a 5-user minimum: at least $2,580 a year on Professional. Storage is 100 GB or 500 GB depending on the plan. And Fulcrum deletes your data when you cancel, so the export discipline you apply to SafetyCulture applies here too.
How to migrate. Rebuild your templates as Fulcrum apps with location fields, then pilot on one network or one area. A free trial exists; Fulcrum doesn't state its length.
- Professional
- $43/license/mo
- Elite
- $55/license/mo
- Minimum
- 5 users, yearly
- Catch
- data deleted on cancel
Lumiform: unlimited templates, price on quote
Quote onlyWhy switch to Lumiform. Lumiform is the closest look-alike to SafetyCulture in this list: a mobile inspection and audit app. Its Professional plan includes unlimited templates, it doesn't charge for onboarding, and it offers a private data server option for teams with strict data rules.
Who it's for. Teams that want a SafetyCulture-style app, many templates, and a vendor willing to talk price.
Who it's not for. Anyone who wants to compare prices on a spreadsheet. Professional and Enterprise are both on quote, with no number on the pricing page.
The catch. No public price, and no refunds. Lumiform also publishes its own comparison of SafetyCulture alternatives, in which it ranks itself first: it's the vendor's own ranking, so weigh it accordingly. Billing is possible in euros, pounds or dollars.
How to migrate. Ask during the sales call whether they help rebuild templates, and get it in writing. We found no documented SafetyCulture import on their site.

The 6 alternatives side by side
Our default pick: GoAudits if you want a SafetyCulture-like app for less, MaintainX if inspections feed maintenance. To compare like with like, take a team of 10 people billed yearly, per month: Mitti Free $0 (5 templates), Mitti Premium $240, GoAudits Starter $100, GoAudits Enterprise $300, MaintainX Essential $200 (3 procedure work orders; $650 on Premium), Fulcrum Professional $430, Kizeo Forms Smart €150 before VAT. Jotform doesn't fit a 10-inspector team below Gold, and Lumiform is on quote.

Migrate from SafetyCulture in seven steps
Order matters more than speed. The export comes before any downgrade, the pilot before the rollout, the cancellation last. Each step protects your audit history.
List everything you'd lose
Day 1Count your active templates, archived templates, schedules, open actions, users, sites and integrations. Note which reports go to clients or auditors, and in what format.
This list decides the rest. A handful of templates moves in days; dozens of templates and schedules, plus an auditor who expects the same report layout, take weeks.
- Time
- half a day
- Output
- one sheet, one row per item
Run Mitti Exporter while Premium is still active
Before any downgradeThis is the step that can't wait. Mitti Exporter (formerly SafetyCulture Exporter) only works on Premium and Enterprise. Downgrade first and you lose it, and you're left with manual exports from the web app.
The tool needs the web app, a full seat and an API token. It exports inspections, templates, schedules and actions to CSV with media, to a database, or as PDF and Word reports. Watch the defaults: it takes completed and active inspections from the last 12 months only. Widen the date range and tick archived and incomplete inspections.
- Needs
- Premium or Enterprise
- Default range
- last 12 months
Keep the PDF and Word reports as your audit trail
ComplianceCSV holds the data. PDF and Word hold the proof: what the inspector saw, signed and photographed, in the layout the auditor accepted. Export both.
None of the tools in this guide re-imports past inspections. Your history lives in that archive from now on, so store it somewhere your team and your auditors can reach (a shared drive with a clear folder per site and year works).
- Formats
- CSV + PDF or Word
- Why
- no tool re-imports history
Export schedules and open actions
Easy to forgetUsers report that SafetyCulture has no tool to migrate schedules. Mitti Exporter can export them as data, so export them and rebuild them by hand in the new tool.
Do the same with open actions: close what you can before the switch, and carry the rest over as a short list rather than a bulk import.
- Risk if skipped
- missed recurring inspections
Rebuild your templates in the new tool
Week 1No vendor we compared documents an import of SafetyCulture templates, so you rebuild. Start with the 5 to 10 templates that cover most of your inspections, not with the whole library.
Use it to clean up: merge duplicates, drop questions nobody answers, fix the scoring. A rebuilt template is often shorter than the original.
- Start with
- your top 5 to 10
Run both tools side by side on one site
Weeks 2 and 3Pick one site, ideally the one with the worst mobile signal, and run both apps for two weeks. Compare the reports, the sync, the time spent per inspection.
Fix the templates during the pilot, not after the rollout. Then roll out site by site.
- Length
- about two weeks
- Test
- offline sync on a weak signal
Downgrade or cancel last
LastOnly once the new tool runs every scheduled inspection, and your exports are checked, do you touch the Mitti plan. Dropping to the free plan may keep the account accessible within the free limits (10 seats, 5 active templates) without the Premium bill.
Watch the renewal date: Premium seats are paid upfront for the year on annual billing. Some users report that closing an account takes several exchanges with support, so start early.

- your exports, checked
- Check
- your annual renewal date

What makes a SafetyCulture migration go wrong
Most failed migrations aren't technical. They come from doing the steps in the wrong order, or from treating years of inspections as a spreadsheet. Six mistakes to avoid.
Downgrading before exporting
The classic. Someone cancels Premium to save the next invoice, and Mitti Exporter goes with it. Manual exports from the web app remain, with limits: the CSV export fails on templates that were edited, and the Analytics drill-down stops at 1,000 inspections per CSV.
Trusting the default export range
Mitti Exporter takes the last 12 months of completed and active inspections by default. An auditor asking for a 3-year-old report won't find it in your archive. Set the range to cover your full history.
Keeping only the CSV
A spreadsheet of answers isn't an audit report. Keep the PDF or Word version of each inspection, with photos and signatures, as long as your regulations require.
Forgetting the schedules
Schedules don't migrate on their own. If nobody rebuilds them, the first sign is a missed monthly inspection. Rebuild them before the pilot ends.
Picking on price alone
GoAudits Starter looks cheap until you need scheduling, which sits on Enterprise at $30 a seat. Price the plan you'll actually need. If your checklists are office processes, not field audits, Process Street (rated 3.9/5, price on quote) is a better match, and our approval workflow ranking lists others.
Choosing a tool that deletes on exit
Fulcrum deletes your data when you cancel. Leaving SafetyCulture is the moment to plan your next exit too: check how each vendor exports before you sign.
SafetyCulture alternatives: frequently asked questions
Are SafetyCulture and Mitti the same tool?
Yes. SafetyCulture, the app many teams still call iAuditor, took the name Mitti in 2026. The old pricing page and the help center now redirect to mitti.com and help.mitti.com, and the plans page reads "Mitti by SafetyCulture". Your account, templates and inspections are unchanged: only the name and the web addresses moved.
Is there a free alternative to SafetyCulture?
MaintainX has a Basic plan that stays at $0, but it only allows 2 work orders with procedures and 2 active recurring ones, so it's a trial more than a tool. Jotform has a free plan for simple forms. The most generous free plan in this space is still Mitti's own: up to 10 seats and 5 active inspection templates. If those 5 templates are enough, staying put costs nothing.
What's the cheapest SafetyCulture alternative for a team?
GoAudits Starter, at $10 per user per month billed yearly. For 10 people that's $100 a month, against $240 for Mitti Premium on annual billing. The trade-off: Starter caps you at 10 checklist templates and one entity. Our QHSE software ranking covers the broader options.
How much does SafetyCulture cost for 10 people?
On the free plan, $0, as long as 5 active templates are enough. On Premium, $24 per seat per month billed yearly, so $240 a month or $2,880 a year for 10 seats. Month to month it's $29 per seat, so $290 a month. Prices are in US dollars and exclude tax. A per-site plan with unlimited users also exists, on quote.
How do I export all my SafetyCulture inspections before I leave?
Use Mitti Exporter (formerly SafetyCulture Exporter). It needs a Premium or Enterprise plan, the web app, a full seat and an API token. It exports inspections, templates, schedules and actions to CSV with media, to a database, or as PDF and Word reports. By default it only takes completed and active inspections from the last 12 months, so widen the date range and tick archived and incomplete inspections.
Can I import my SafetyCulture templates into another tool?
Not that we found. None of the vendors we compared documents an import of SafetyCulture templates. Plan to rebuild them by hand. It's also a good moment to merge near-duplicates: many accounts carry near-duplicates per site.
What do I lose if I downgrade SafetyCulture to the free plan?
Three things matter for a migration. You drop back to 5 active templates. You lose the advanced analytics, permissions and integrations. And you lose Mitti Exporter, the bulk export tool, which is Premium and Enterprise only. Run your exports first, then downgrade.
Which SafetyCulture alternative works offline?
Offline work is the reason most field teams picked SafetyCulture in the first place, so check it first. GoAudits lists offline mode on its Starter plan. Kizeo Forms includes offline mode from Smart, and Fulcrum is built for field data collection. Whatever you pick, run a pilot on a site with a weak signal before you commit.
Which alternative handles inspections and maintenance together?
MaintainX. Its procedures carry inspection points and signatures, and a failed check can open a corrective work order on its own. Essential costs $20 per user per month billed yearly but only allows 3 work orders with attached procedures; unlimited procedures start on Premium at $65 ($75 month to month). Our CMMS ranking compares it with other maintenance tools.
