What It Is

Мои Бригады is a vertical CRM for Russian construction, repair, renovation, and contractor crews. It is not positioned as a general-purpose sales CRM; instead, it brings “crews, job sites, estimates, and payments” into a single workspace. It runs in the browser, on phones, and on tablets, and can also be installed as a PWA. Its goal is to replace fragmented management across Excel, paper notes, and chat apps.

Core Features and Collaboration

The product is built around seven everyday screens: crew scheduling, customer pipeline, job-site cards, estimates, new customers, catalogs, and crew management. Scheduling supports weekly and monthly views, with colors used to distinguish different crews, making it easier to see who is available, who is booked, and whether there are date conflicts. The pipeline covers stages such as measurement, confirmation, and construction, and supports search by name, address, or crew. Job-site cards consolidate customer contact details, address, crew, dates, quote, payments, and outstanding balance, with options to call directly or open the location on a map. The estimate module manages labor and materials in separate tables and automatically totals them, making it suitable for showing customers an estimate on-site from a phone.

For team collaboration, the service supports inviting an unlimited number of members, each with an individual account. Roles include “editor” and “viewer”: editors can modify job sites and estimates, while viewers have read-only access. The product also states that members can see one another’s changes without refreshing, which is useful for collaboration among foremen, estimators, accountants, and crew leads.

Pricing, Security, and Integrations

The product is currently in beta, and core features are free. If paid plans are introduced in the future, users will be notified at least 30 days in advance. On the data side, the official materials state that data is stored on Russian servers, complies with Russia’s 152-FZ requirements, uses HTTPS for transmission, and stores passwords as hashes. Third-party integrations appear limited: the only clearly stated capability is opening addresses in Yandex Maps or Google Maps. There is no visible support for payments, accounting tools, messaging apps, APIs, or webhooks.

Pros, Cons, and Who It’s For

Its strengths are a focused use case, a low learning curve, and a mobile-friendly experience, making it especially suitable for small renovation teams, foremen, contractors, and self-employed tradespeople. The drawbacks are that the product is still in beta, and its commercialization model, support, API availability, reporting, complex finance features, and local ecosystem integrations remain unclear.

Access from China and Alternatives

Access from mainland China is unknown. Even if it is accessible, the product is clearly built for the Russian language and Russian compliance environment, so Chinese teams would still need to consider language, local maps, payments, and regulatory adaptation. In China, similar workflows could be built using DingTalk Yida, Mingdao Cloud, or local construction project management software.
