FloristWare vs. Jobber

FloristWare is well suited for every aspect of the florist business and is adaptable to any size florist company.

When you have a lot of techs out in the field, Jobber helps to keep track of who is assigned to which job. This lessens the likelihood of miscommunication or having jobs "fall through the cracks." Techs do not need to physically come to the office for their assignments each day which saves time and money since they can access their Jobber assignments through their phones.

• The reporting tool is powerful - provided the product categories and sales accounts have been well thought through. The fixed reports have been intuitively created; but the export feature makes them even more powerful, so as to be tailor made for the individual business.
• The marketing tools campaign builders, fundraisers, advertising analyzers, etc. are effective and have brought us business we would otherwise not have seen, and saved us money we would otherwise have thrown at the wrong advertisers. Customer data can be pulled and sorted in a multitude of ways, depending on the purpose. We use the marketing tools routinely.
• The financial tools make my life easier. Need to file and pay sales tax? A Sales Report Summary for any date range instantly gives gross sales, taxable sales, sales tax due. Need a current inventory report? A push-button report is generated, by product category. Need to know how this month's sales compare to the same month last year? Not a problem.

• The recurring job feature was key to our decision in selecting Jobber. There's a lot of flexibility in how you schedule recurring work. I especially like that you can select the frequency (weekly, monthly) coupled with either a specific date or day of the week/month.
• Client email reminders help our clients know when we're coming and provide an important point of contact. Customizing the email was easy.
• Client overview. It's extremely helpful to be able to view a client's record and see the upcoming visits along with the completed work.

• I would like to see the ability to save work and continue later (as in pause order entering).
• I would like to see in the future a more advanced routing module.

• Pricey. They should consider some more affordable options.
• Design. As we ramped up our visual identity we were looking for a more modern design.
• To include visible discounting options on quotes, for example.

I am anxious to replace it but there will be effort to learn and switch.

I give FloristWare a rating of 10 for usability because I have never had an ounce if difficulty with any of its functions or features.

It is usable in multiple settings, but in my opinion preferably for small to medium-sized organizations. It covers the process as a whole and can be used in any segment (from creating a quote to client communication). The mobile app is very usable, intuitive, and especially useful for people working in the field

Support is outstanding, Mark wouldn't allow anything less!

There is hardly an app that covers it all while staying simple and wrapping up the process. From the filing of the request, everything goes smoothly following a natural progression. Reports are insightful, give you an instant overview and easy to understand. In addition, you can easily track any information from those on clients to expense tracking.

I have never felt the need to seek out an alternative to Floristware.

Jobber was the best for us by offering the right amount of professional features while not being overwhelming for a small company to use.

• Has kept us on top of account billing, so positive

• This has helped us keep costs down by routing our jobs more efficiently. Specifically, it saves tons of time in routing the jobs, but also saves time/fuel for our drivers.
