What Jobber does well
Jobber is a fast, simple platform for a general services business. Landscapers, cleaners, small handyman shops, painters. If your average ticket is a couple hundred bucks and your bottleneck is keeping the schedule tidy, Jobber does that well.
It does not pretend to be a sales engine for high ticket trade work. That is not what it was built for.
Where sewer and drain shops outgrow Jobber
A sewer replacement or pipe lining job is not a lawn mow. It is a homeowner staring at a five figure quote for something they cannot see. You do not win that job with a clean schedule. You win it with proof, a proposal that respects the homeowner, and a price you can defend.
- ·Camera footage that rides with the proposal so the homeowner sees the damage.
- ·Good, better, best options priced from a flat rate book, not typed in fresh every time.
- ·Signed agreement, timestamps, and photos captured by the job flow itself.
- ·Axel™ answering every call so a booked lead never leaks to the next name on the list.
Cost and fit for a small residential shop
Jobber charges by seat and tier. FieldMetrx™ is priced for the small residential sewer and drain owner operator, and every feature on this page is included, not an add on.
If you are 2 to 15 techs on residential sewer, drain, or trenchless work, this is what you move to when Jobber starts feeling like a schedule with nothing behind it.
When to stay on Jobber
If drain work is a small piece of a broader services business, Jobber is fine. If your average ticket is under a thousand dollars and you rarely quote a repair off a camera, you do not need what FieldMetrx™ does.
If you close five figure repairs and your best tech feels like a salesman with no support, this is the tool that supports him.
Frequently asked
Can I switch from Jobber to FieldMetrx without losing my history?
Yes. Export from Jobber and we import your customers and job history during setup.
Does FieldMetrx handle invoicing and payments?
Yes. Invoicing, card payments, and dispute proof are all built into the same flow.
Is FieldMetrx overkill if I only run one truck?
No. One truck is where a missed call or a low quote hurts most, so the payback is fastest.
