Before you decide

Important caveats

Job costing is available on Jobber's Grow and Plus plans, not every plan.1
Recurring-job costing uses a rolling 30-day calculation and Jobber does not provide recurring-job cost reporting.1
Material costs can be double counted when both quote line-item costs and synced or uploaded expenses represent the same purchase.1
Jobber is positioned primarily around service jobs; buyers running complex commercial construction should assess its project controls separately from this verified costing capability.2

Does Jobber support mobile payment collection?

Jobber supports collecting quote deposits and invoice payments in the field through its mobile app. With Jobber Payments enabled, a technician can use Tap to Pay, manually enter card details, charge a saved card, or use Jobber's card reader.

Does Jobber support multi-option estimates?

Jobber can present multiple packages or add-ons inside one quote using optional line items. Clients select the items they want and the quote total updates before approval, but the reviewed documentation does not establish separately priced, mutually exclusive proposal alternatives.

Does Jobber support commission tracking?

Could not verify native technician commission calculation in the reviewed Jobber documentation. Team productivity and revenue reporting do not establish commission rules, splits, spiffs, or payroll-ready commission calculations.

Does Jobber support multi-location business management?

Jobber can link separate accounts as a franchise and export aggregate report data, while Jobber Central adds selected multi-location dashboard insights; operational records such as client work history remain isolated between accounts.

Does Jobber support purchasing and purchase orders?

Could not verify a native Jobber purchase-order workflow in the reviewed first-party documentation. Jobber documents job expenses and a third-party Ply integration for purchasing and inventory, but that is not evidence of native purchase orders.

Does Jobber support reporting dashboards?

Jobber provides more than 20 built-in reports with report-specific filters, selectable columns, CSV export, and an email scheduler app, but the reviewed documentation does not establish a general report builder that joins arbitrary operational datasets.
