ServiceHub vs Jobber
A simpler way to run your service business — with built-in pricing that turns inquiries into booked jobs.
Jobber is a powerful tool — but it can feel heavy. ServiceHub is built for teams who want simplicity without sacrificing what matters: booking, pricing, jobs, invoicing, and getting paid.
Different Philosophy
Jobber tries to do everything. ServiceHub focuses on what actually moves your business forward.

- Pay only for what you need
Jobber's Approach
- Feature-rich but steep learning curve

- Many features you may never touch

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.
Same Starting Price, More Value
Same $49/mo starting price as Jobber, but with AI FrontDesk included.
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.
Is ServiceHub good for larger teams?
ServiceHub works great for teams up to 10 people. If you have 20+ technicians and need enterprise features, Jobber or ServiceTitan might be better fits.
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.
