Reviewers frequently utilize a range of supplementary software alongside Jobber to manage various business operations, demonstrating a preference for specialized tools to address distinct functional needs. Accounting and payroll solutions are the most commonly mentioned, with 3 of 16 reviewers citing their use of QuickBooks Online products. This indicates a strong reliance on established financial management tools to handle essential back-office functions such as bookkeeping and wage processing. Beyond financial management, a smaller number of reviewers also noted the integration of communication and document management tools into their daily workflows. Specifically, 2 of 16 reviewers each identified dedicated communication platforms and document handling software as essential for their operations. These additional tools appear to complement Jobber by addressing specific needs in areas such as team coordination and secure document processing, suggesting a preference for specialized solutions to optimize different aspects of business management. The consistent positive sentiment across all mentioned categories implies that these tools are generally well-regarded and effectively support business activities.

Reporting and Data

Further changes were made to the actual reports on Jobber's end that were (very minorly helpful for us and not worth the cost or the effort put into the upgrade that I could tell, in the fact that) we have to pay the developer to rework our calculation tool due to simple changes in the order of the columns

Jobber Improves our Quote to Booked Job Conversion Rate with their Options feature

Rating: 8 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a residential home cleaning service. We use Jobber to manage quotes, scheduling clients, manage team scheduling, and invoicing for services. We use reporting data to monitor our business growth/health, identify trends and create projections that help us chart our course ahead.

Pros

  • Quotes/Estimates - this is the major winner for us and an area where we haven't found worthy competition. The features we rely on the most are include the "options" feature (reducing back and forth with clients and allowing them to make a decision as soon as they open the quote) and automatic deposit collection. These features help us to have, for our industry, a high conversion rate with the way we utilize them.
  • Client reminder emails/texts - consistent, reliable, no text limits
  • Visual Interface - we appreciate the modern looking interface.

Cons

  • When I open Jobber for daily use, we frequently need to clear advertisements - specifically regarding referring Jobber to others. If it were related to product updates, it may be more relevant, but consistent referral promotions or online web-events are not what I want to clear when I just want to get to work in my expensive crm software
  • Reports are frustratingly bulky and inconsistently formatted - the report generator doesn't include all reports, most notably missing is timesheets. An extra step to view the list of available reports was recently added after additions to paid, optional service offerings were placed higher on the menu, requiring scrolling to reach the reports.
  • A web developer was hired by us to streamline some of our necessary reports into a calculation / report upload tool. Further changes were made to the actual reports on Jobber's end that were (very minorly helpful for us and not worth the cost or the effort put into the upgrade that I could tell, in the fact that) we have to pay the developer to rework our calculation tool due to simple changes in the order of the columns
  • Scheduling - we were optimistic about the beta schedule but the absence of dispatch view is a glaring gap. Additional page realestate is used in the beta mode that makes less of the schedule visible. Changes were made to "complete" job's next steps that add work for us.

Likelihood to Recommend

The cost of Jobber is not suitable for a startup - even our company size is hard pressed to squeeze in other areas of business to afford the cost. Zenmaid or other maid-forward services may be better suited since Jobber seems to focus it's offerings on one-off as opposed to recurring services like ours.

For business who do in-person estimates like ours, the streamlined estimate feature which causes increased conversion rates makes it worth the cost - as we anecdotally gain more business this way. However, if we switch to an online booking / instant booking model as opposed to in-person estimates, we may not require this feature. Zenmaid has a "gamified" residential booking page that was extremely high converting for us - we received sometimes 30+ inquiries per day due to the ease of use - MANY more completed inquiries than we receive now - but they didn't have a quoting and deposit collection tool - so here we are. If we used their instant booking feature we would have stayed due to the scheduling tool, gap finder, prevention of double booking employees, and cleaning service focus, as well as significantly reduced pricing.

Jobber is well suited for running my lawn care service. Love the simplicity of quoting, scheduling, invoicing and collecting payments. I feel Jobber is lacking in training new customers. I have had Jobber for a year and still feel like I am stumbling through it. I know it does a lot more that I just don’t know how to make it do.

Rating: 9 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Jobber's ease of use and exceptional feature for organizing our business is amazing. Our customers love the online portal for their organization and ability to make requests as well. we currently run 15 crews with Jobber and love what it does for our commercial grounds maintenance contracts.

Pros

  • routing
  • recurring jobs
  • organizing jobs

Cons

  • we use yeti for snow and like their mandatory features like uploading jobs and geo fences when on sites
  • would like to see better way to organize our contracts from start to finish with reminders when contracts are expiring

Likelihood to Recommend

Jobber is the easiest way to organize a smaller scale company. we have made internal tweaks and using our own ways to organize with property details for scheduling but there's room for improvement once you hit the 3 mil mark with more users.

Very good

Rating: 8 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It creates a smooth progress from request to closing the sale to scheduling and invoicing. This used to be our biggest pain point, and now it is clear in one system for both clients and employees. Instead of multiple programs, we now use one program which makes it super easy

Pros

  • Full process from sale to invoicing
  • Time tracking
  • Scheduling

Cons

  • Turning off notifications for a job instead of client
  • Easier view of tips
  • Lower cc charge

Likelihood to Recommend

For employees who are on the roads it is an ideal system. It can be accessed anywhere at any time which makes things extremely clear. It would be less suited if the business only has employees in an office with everyone being at the same location all the time every day

Pros

  • Scheduling

  • QuickBooks sync

Cons

  • Ability to adjust visits for the jobs in consistent changes from day today put on a continual rotation for times differing from day to day

Jobber Review

Rating: 9 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Jobber helps us by organizing invoices and quotes. One issue that Jobber addresses is scheduling jobs, as it features an easy-to-use scheduling system within its software. Additionally, Jobber has simplified the payment process for both business owners and clients, making it easier to settle invoices. I appreciate that clients have a user-friendly dashboard. where they can request work and review their past invoices.

Pros

  • Getting paying faster and easier
  • Nice looking Invoices and Quotes
  • Nice dashboard for business owners and clients

Cons

  • Making Invoices and Quotes more customizable for business

Likelihood to Recommend

Jobber was a great fit for me when I was using Google Sheets for creating invoices and quotes. It transformed the way I manage these tasks. The software is well-organized for handling invoices and quotes, making the scheduling of jobs much easier. I also appreciate the text and email features that notify me about upcoming work and invoices that need to be paid. I highly recommend Jobber to anyone!

The key to scaling

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

When I first started my landscaping company, I wore every hat — CEO, CFO, janitor, laborer, you name it. I was using QuickBooks at the time, and while it worked for some things, it quickly became a huge headache. As a small business owner without the time to dive into every detail of bookkeeping, it just wasn’t cutting it. That’s when I made the switch to Jobber in the middle of last year — and it’s been a total game changer. Jobber gave me the tools to manage my business efficiently without getting bogged down in the admin work. From scheduling to invoicing to client management, everything became easier, faster, and more organized. As a landscaper, Jobber didn’t just help me keep up — it helped me grow. It freed up time so I could focus on scaling my business instead of being a slave to it. It’s been one of the best moves I’ve made so far.

Pros

  • Scheduling Jobs
  • Organizing Leads
  • Invoice Reminder

Cons

  • Customization when it comes to scheduling
  • As a landscape business weather determines our schedule so maybe some room to move things around without having to rewrite everything

Likelihood to Recommend

As a small business owner, having to run around and do all these different things, Jobber helps a lot with scheduling and being able to remind myself on the things that I need to schedule.

Jobber is great software at an affordable value for small businesses

Rating: 8 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Jobber for multiple functions for my business; customer database, sending estimates, invoices, and card payment processing. It's easy to navigate and software has been reliable with little issues. It automatically syncs with QuickBooks online, as well as many other apps. The support staff is quick to respond when I have questions.

Pros

  • Invoicing
  • Payment processing
  • Customer database

Cons

  • Pricebook templates
  • Detailed receipts
  • QuickBook syncing errors

Likelihood to Recommend

Jobber does a great job at performing the same tasks as larger companies with more expensive software
