ServiceHub vs Jobber
A simpler way to run your service business — with built-in pricing, recurring billing, and booking recovery on all plans.
Jobber is a powerful tool — but it can feel heavy. LeadDuo ServiceHub is built for teams who want simplicity without sacrificing what matters: booking, pricing, jobs, invoicing, getting paid, and recovering bookings that would otherwise be lost.
What a 10-person service team actually pays each month
LeadDuo ServiceHub Team stays flat at $116/mo billed annually ($129 monthly). Jobber Grow reaches $299/mo billed annually for up to 10 users.

ServiceHub does not lose the booking when the customer drops off
Most booking tools optimize only for getting the booking started. ServiceHub also handles what happens when a customer abandons the flow halfway through.
SMS drop-off recovery
Capture contact details early in the conversational widget and recover abandoned bookings by SMS or secure web resume. Two-way SMS can be enabled when it fits the business.
Resume the exact session for 48 hours
Customers return to the same in-progress conversation with their prior answers still in place. They do not get pushed back to a blank form.
Included on every plan
Conversational booking, recurring billing, AI follow-up, and recovery are included from day one. The only difference between plans is usage limits.

Jobber tries to do everything. ServiceHub focuses on what actually moves your business forward.

Why Dedicated SMS Numbers Matter
On Team and Business plans, you get your own dedicated phone number for SMS messaging.
Professional Branding
Customers always see the same number when you text them. Build trust and recognition.
Two-Way Conversations
Customers can reply directly to your messages. AI auto-responds when you're busy.
Better Deliverability
Dedicated numbers have better carrier reputation than shared numbers.
No Routing Confusion
Every reply goes directly to your business — no mix-ups with other accounts.
When to Choose Jobber
We believe in being honest. Jobber might be better if:
- •You have 10+ field technicians needing route optimization
- •You need complex quoting with multiple line items
- •You want GPS tracking of your team
- •You need detailed job costing and profitability reports
But if you want simplicity, speed, and a tool that doesn't overwhelm — ServiceHub is built for you.
Why Teams Switch to ServiceHub
Faster Setup
No training required. Add your services, set availability, share your booking link. Done.
Cleaner Workflow
Booking → Job → Invoice → Paid. No extra steps, no confusion.
Pricing Engine
Turn a few customer answers into a fast, consistent quote. Price by beds/baths, sq ft, hours, add-ons — same pricing from booking to invoice.
Recurring Revenue Built-In
Run subscription billing for repeat services without extra add-ons. Create once, auto-invoice every cycle.
No Per-Seat Fee Math
Solo includes up to 50 users, Team up to 75, and Business up to 200. You are not forced into separate seat pricing just to add office staff or techs.
Recover Booking Drop-Offs
ServiceHub's conversational widget captures contact details early and resumes the exact booking session by SMS or web for 48 hours instead of sending customers back to a blank form.
AI That Helps
AI FrontDesk responds to inquiries when you're busy. Jobber doesn't have this.
Pricing Engine: Quotes That Don't Slow You Down
Most service businesses lose jobs before the first appointment — because quoting takes too long or feels inconsistent.
ServiceHub includes a Pricing Engine that turns a few customer answers into a fast, consistent quote:
If you price jobs based on "a few key inputs," this is one of the fastest ways to convert more leads into booked work.
🎯 Perfect for cleaning, landscaping, HVAC diagnostics, photography packages — any service where price depends on inputs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I migrate from Jobber to ServiceHub?
Yes. You can export your customer list from Jobber and we're building import tools. Most teams set up fresh since ServiceHub is so quick to configure.
Does ServiceHub have all the features Jobber has?
No — and that's intentional. We focus on the core workflow: booking, jobs, invoicing, and payments. However, we DO include Smart Availability (travel time optimization) on all plans, unlike Jobber which gates it.
Does ServiceHub help recover abandoned bookings?
Yes. ServiceHub includes a conversational booking widget with SMS drop-off recovery and secure web resume links. Customers can come back to the same in-progress booking for 48 hours instead of starting over.
Is ServiceHub good for larger teams?
ServiceHub is a strong fit for growing service businesses that want simpler operations, recurring billing, AI follow-up, and booking recovery without enterprise complexity. If you need highly specialized enterprise features, a heavier platform may be a better fit.
What about customer support?
We offer email support with fast response times. Jobber has phone support on higher tiers. For most issues, our help docs and email support are sufficient.
