ResponseFi vs. Unanet

Both are built for contractors who live inside cost codes and periods of performance. ResponseFi is the operational layer that feeds that back office rather than replacing it.

Where each starts

Different first screens, different first questions

UnanetProject-based ERP

Project-based ERP — time, expense, project accounting, and compliance reporting for a growing contractor's back office.

ResponseFiDeployment-first

Deployment operations — the transactions, contractors, and task orders created in the field, scored against the award's rules before they reach finance.

Questions

Choosing between the two

Do I have to replace my accounting system?

No. ResponseFi is an operational finance and documentation layer. It does not replace a complete accounting system or ERP.

Can we run both?

Yes — that is the usual setup. Field and deployment detail is captured in ResponseFi and exported or synced to your accounting system for the ledger.

What does ResponseFi cost?

Starter is $19.99 and Growth is $499 per organization per month, both with a 14-day free trial and no credit card required. Enterprise and Government are scoped with our team.
