Jobber alternative
You're paying for seats. You have three guys.
Jobber is good software. It's also priced for companies with an office manager, and it charges you by the head. If you're a crew of one to five, here's the arithmetic, and here's where each one actually wins.
What a three-person crew pays.
Same crew, same month. Both prices checked July 2026.
Jobber
$169/ month
Connect, 5 users — the plan that covers a 3-man crew
A website is a separate bill, somewhere else
Nine Yards
$69/ month
Crew — you and up to four more, no per-user fee
Website included
You keep $100 a month. That's $1,200 a year — and you get the website.
Jobber's cheapest plan is $39, but that's one person only. The moment you put a second person on it, you're on a bigger plan.
Where Jobber is the better buy.
I'm not going to pretend otherwise. Pick Jobber if:
You're past five people
Nine Yards is built for one to five. Above that, you want their crew and dispatch tooling, and you'll feel the ceiling here fast.
You need it to talk to QuickBooks
Their accounting integrations are years ahead. If your bookkeeper already lives in QuickBooks, that's a real cost to give up.
You want a support line
They have a support department. You get me on the phone. Some weeks that's better and some weeks it isn't.
Where this one wins.
The website is in the price
Not a template you rent on top. Your prices, your photos, your booking form, on your own address — and it's the same $69.
The number doesn't move
No setup fee, no per-user fee, no annual contract. Add a fourth guy in March and the bill in April is still $69.
Your crew doesn't need logins
The day sheet is a link. English and Spanish. Nobody downloads anything, nobody remembers a password, nobody costs you another seat.
There are no investors here
Nobody needs this price to go up next year to hit a number. That's not a feature, but after a few years of software bills it starts to feel like one.
So which one?
Under five people, and you want a website without a second bill — this one. Over five, or your books run through QuickBooks — Jobber, honestly.
