Honest comparison
Fieldora vs Jobber
Same starting price. Half the complexity. Built for the trades — not for sales demos.
Jobber is one of the most established names in field service software, and for good reason — it does a lot. But that's also the problem. Most contractors only use 20% of Jobber's features, while paying for 100% of them. Fieldora strips it back to the workflow that actually moves money: inspection → estimate → invoice → paid. Same starting price, but you'll never hit a per-user paywall.

Which one is right for you?
Best for
Solo operators and small crews (1–15 techs) who want one tool that handles inspections, estimates, scheduling, and invoicing — without a per-seat tax or a 2-day onboarding.
Not for
Large multi-location franchises that need deep accounting integrations, complex commission structures, or a built-in marketing/CRM suite.
Best for
Established mid-sized businesses already using QuickBooks Online who want a mature client portal and online booking, and don't mind paying per user.
Not for
Teams growing past 5 users who don't want their software bill to triple every time they hire.
Switching from Jobber?

Cancel Jobber, invite your team

Common questions
Will I lose features by switching from Jobber?
Honestly, yes — a few. Jobber has online booking widgets, a marketing automation suite, and deeper QuickBooks sync. If those are core to your business, stay on Jobber. If you mostly use Jobber for quoting, scheduling, and invoicing, you'll find Fieldora faster and significantly cheaper.
How does pricing compare for a 5-person team?
Jobber Connect (the most common plan for 5 users) runs around $169/mo. Fieldora's Pro plan is $79/mo flat for unlimited users. That's roughly $1,080/year saved — and the gap widens as your team grows.
Can my customers still pay online?
Yes. Fieldora includes Stripe-powered online payments out of the box. Customers can pay invoices by card or ACH from any device, no app needed.
Is there a free trial?
14 days, no credit card required. You can import your Jobber data, run real jobs, and decide before you ever pay a cent.
