Swept

Workforce management software for commercial cleaning businesses

What Swept does

Swept is a specialized workforce management and operations platform built specifically for commercial cleaning and janitorial businesses. It focuses on connecting office staff with distributed field cleaners through scheduling, time tracking, multilingual messaging, and on-site inspection tools.

Where Swept falls short

Swept is almost entirely focused on post-sale operations and workforce management. It does not provide public-facing marketing tools, CRM capabilities, or embeddable website forms for capturing new commercial cleaning leads or generating instant quotes.

How we set Swept up

For a commercial cleaning company using Swept, the marketing website and the operational software remain completely separate. When a property manager visits the cleaning company's website and requests a quote, they fill out a website form. That form submission goes to the sales team's email or CRM. The sales team nurtures the lead, conducts a walk-through, and wins the contract. Only at that point does the operations manager log into Swept to manually create the new Client, set up the Location, define the cleaning schedule, and assign the cleaners. Swept handles everything after the sale, but nothing before it.

Integration patterns that make sense

Native First

Limited

Not applicable, as Swept does not provide native website forms.

Lead capture must be handled entirely outside of the Swept platform.

Api First

Limited

Not applicable, as Swept does not offer an open developer API.

Because there is no API, developers cannot programmatically create new locations, clients, or schedules directly from a custom web application.

Hybrid

Fit

When a commercial cleaning company needs to capture leads online and manage the sales process before handing the won contract over to operations.

The marketing website uses a standard website form to capture quote requests. This data is routed to a dedicated CRM to manage the sales pipeline. Once the contract is won, the client and location details are manually entered into Swept for operational management.

Data objects your stack has to preserve

Who usually fits a Swept-centered website rebuild

Use this section to decide whether Swept should stay behind the website before you narrow into an industry route.

Best fit

  • - Teams already running Swept as the system of record
  • - Operators who need stronger qualification before data reaches Swept
  • - Businesses that need a public site and intake flow shaped around industrial demand

What operators complain about

  • We struggle with the lack of an open API, as it forces our administrative team to manually double-enter data from our sales CRM into Swept once a contract is won.
  • Our team gets frustrated that there is no native automation connector, making it impossible to automate basic tasks like creating a new client from an accepted proposal.
  • I am frustrated by the limited reporting features; we often have to export data to Excel to calculate accurate payroll or job costing.
  • We lose time trying to manage complex scheduling scenarios, as the scheduling interface can sometimes be clunky for large, multi-location accounts.
  • Our cleaners sometimes complain that the mobile app drains their battery quickly or has glitches when they try to clock in from areas with poor cell service.
  • We are frustrated that Swept is stronger in operations than in website conversion.

Technical trust before you connect the stack

Native path

Custom intake required

The website should only promise the Swept handoff paths that are publicly documented.

Auth model

No public auth flow

If a custom handoff is needed, authorization into Swept has to stay explicit and documented.

API surface

No public API

Swept still has to compete with CleanTelligent, Janitorial Manager, Aspire (formerly FieldRoutes) while keeping the website handoff cleaner.

Auth: Swept does not expose an open developer API, so there is no standard OAuth or API key authentication available for third-party web integrations.

Data flow: Data does not flow between the public marketing website and Swept. Swept acts as a closed, post-sale operational silo. Any data transfer from a CRM or website must be done manually by the operations team.

Security: Because the marketing website does not connect to Swept, there is no risk of exposing internal operational data, cleaner schedules, or client security codes through front-end vulnerabilities.

Also in the evaluation set

If Swept is on the table, these adjacent systems usually come up too. Use the CRM Scorecard to decide whether you need a horizontal CRM, a vertical operating system, or a cleaner connection between both.
