Mastiff vs Contractor Foreman
Contractor Foreman is aggressively-priced construction management — RFIs, submittals, AIA-style billing, daily logs — with a real $49/mo entry point (one user, billed annually). It's construction paperwork software: the stages follow a build, not a clearing job, and the cheap headline number climbs quickly once you need more seats or don't want to prepay a year.

The gaps
What Contractor Foreman is missing for land clearing companies
Construction-project paperwork — RFIs, submittals, schedule-of-values billing — not acreage bids and machine-days.
The $49/mo headline is one user, billed annually; quarterly billing runs roughly 25% higher per month, and Basic isn't offered on it at all.
Seat caps ladder the price: 3 users at $105/mo, 8 at $166/mo, 15 at $221/mo, unlimited at $332/mo (annual basis).
No acre-based quoting and no vegetation density classes.
No consumer directory bringing you leads — demand generation stays a separate bill.
