Joblogic vs Jobber
Jobber is excellent software for North American home-service businesses, which is exactly why it tops US-weighted review charts. It prices in US dollars, supports from North America, and has no UK compliance capability. If you run a UK service business, the comparison looks very different from the league tables.
The short answer
Jobber is home-service software built for the North American market: pricing is in USD only, automatic payments and ACH exclude the UK, and there is no support for UK requirements like CP12 gas certificates, F-Gas compliance, CIS or Sage integration. It also has no contract or SLA management, no PPM schedules and no asset management, and plans cap at 15 included users. Joblogic is UK-built for service contractors, with GBP pricing, 24/7 support, native gas and F-Gas compliance, SFG20, and full contract, asset and subcontractor management. For UK home-service businesses that mainly want marketing tools, Jobber can still appeal. For UK service contractors, it is the wrong continent and the wrong kind of work. And only one of the two is building toward an agentic operating system for service contractors.

What it actually costs
Jobber's self-serve pricing is admirably transparent, in dollars. The UK buyer's question is what the sticker becomes after FX, add-ons and per-user fees, and what it still doesn't include.
Joblogic: priced in pounds, built for contract work
Published pricing from £45 per licence per month. We don't do monthly contracts; most customers stay for years, and some for decades.
- Job management, scheduling, quoting, invoicing
- Contracts, SLAs and 52-week PPM planning
- Asset registers with QR tagging
- Gas certificates, F-Gas (REFCOM), SFG20
- Customer and subcontractor portals
- Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, KashFlow, FreeAgent
- Built-in AI assistant, included as standard
One currency, one country's compliance, one licence.
Jobber: the stack builds in dollars
Core $49, Connect $139, Grow $199, Plus $699 per month (list, USD). Annual discounts available.
- Booking, quotes, invoices, scheduling
- Extra users: $29 per user per month, every plan
- Job costing, two-way SMS, automations: Grow tier and up
- Marketing Suite $79, AI Receptionist $99, Pipeline $49 monthly add-ons
- Card processing 2.9% + 30c

Reviewers describe bills passing $500-600 a month once the stack assembles.
Before you sign anything, ask any vendor for a three-year total cost in your currency: licences, users, add-ons, processing fees. We will give you ours in pounds as part of onboarding.
What the league tables say, and what they leave out
Jobber runs no comparison page against Joblogic; it does not need to, because US-weighted review charts do the work. If you found Jobber through a "best field service software" list, here is the context the list skipped.
Where Jobber is genuinely strong
Credit where due. Jobber's product is polished and its brand deservedly strong: clean UX, fast onboarding, transparent self-serve pricing, and a marketing suite (booking, review management, AI receptionist) that genuinely helps consumer-facing businesses win work. For North American home services it is a fine choice. None of that is the job UK service contractors need done, and the rest of this page is the part the league tables skip.
Everyone is adding AI. The more useful question is what it's built on.
For thirty years, field service software has organised itself around the job. The coordination between jobs, contracts, compliance and cash has been carried by people: in spreadsheets, in inboxes, in someone's head. That is the gap the industry is now pointed at. The difference is the architecture underneath.
Intelligence inside the workflow, not beside it
Joblogic's built-in AI assistant catches missed actions and flags overdue jobs before they become failures. No third-party software, no separate licence, nothing new to manage. It works where your team already works, which is why people use it.
An agentic operating system for service contractors
Joblogic is building toward an agentic operating system for service contractors: a system that reads the contract, the compliance and the SLA tier as live rules, and absorbs the coordination the team used to carry. Less reconciliation after the fact. Earlier sight of delivery risk, while it is in flight. Fewer gaps between the office, the field and finance.
Your Joblogic platform continues exactly as it is. The agentic operating system is new and optional.
Four reasons UK contractors choose Joblogic over Jobber
Built where you work
Joblogic prices in pounds, supports from the UK around the clock with a 2-minute average response, and integrates with Sage as well as Xero and QuickBooks. Jobber prices in dollars, publishes no UK support presence, and its automatic payment features stop at the Canadian border.
Compliance Jobber has never heard of
CP12 gas certificates, F-Gas tracking built with REFCOM, SFG20 maintenance specifications: none of these exist in Jobber, because its market never asks. In Joblogic they are native, because ours always does. You cannot run compliant gas or refrigeration work on software that does not know the regulations exist.
Commercial work, not just home visits
Jobber's feature set ends where commercial contracting begins: no contracts, no SLAs, no PPM, no asset registers, no subcontractor management, and a 15-included-user ceiling. Joblogic runs multi-site maintenance contracts as standard; East West Connect runs £20m of maintenance turnover on it.
The price you see is the price you plan
Jobber's review base increasingly describes stacking costs: per-user fees, add-on modules and processing charges pushing bills well past the sticker. Joblogic's pricing is published in GBP with the operational features included.
What the comparison means for your role
Software decisions are made by three people with three different fears. Here is the Joblogic vs Jobber question through each pair of eyes.
Operations that match UK reality
The structural question: can the platform run the work your contracts actually describe, in the country they are signed in?
- SLAs, PPM and asset registers as core product; Jobber has none of the three
- No 15-user ceiling as the team grows
- Support in your working hours, and outside them
One currency, no surprises
USD billing means FX exposure on every invoice and a forecast that moves with the exchange rate. Then the add-ons arrive.
- From £45 per licence per month, published
- Sage integration; Jobber has none
- Job costing with P&L per job and per contract, included rather than tier-gated
The paperwork your clients demand
UK commercial clients ask for certificates, compliance records and SLA evidence. The platform either produces them or you build a parallel system in spreadsheets.
- CP12s, F-Gas logs and custom forms attached to assets and sites
- +25% first-time fix rates (William Austin Services)
- Missed actions flagged by built-in AI before the client notices
Where the gap is unbridgeable
For some UK sectors, Jobber is not a weaker option; it is not an option. These are the three clearest.
HVAC and refrigeration
F-Gas obligations make software without refrigerant tracking a non-starter. Joblogic's F-Gas module is native, built with REFCOM; Jobber has no equivalent and no UK compliance content anywhere on its site.
97% customer retention in our HVAC niche
Facilities management
Multi-site contracts need PPM discipline, SFG20 alignment and SLA evidence. Jobber has recurring scheduling for home visits; it has no PPM planner, no SFG20 and no contract management at any tier.
+25% job logging efficiency (Parr FM)
Gas and heating
A CP12 is not optional paperwork; it is the law of the landlord market. Jobber has no UK certificate capability. Joblogic includes gas certificates alongside a form builder for everything else your work demands.
Invoicing per job cut from 15 minutes to about 1 minute (Parr FM)

What Joblogic customers say
Named customers, on the record. Not composites, not "a leading contractor".

Sam Allen, Director of Maintenance, East West Connect"We can drill down on jobs and quotes, and the accounting integration removes manual input."
Julie Pickin, Office Manager, Vigil Fire & SecuritySwitching from Jobber: the honest version
UK businesses that started on Jobber usually move when compliance or contract work arrives. Jobber's plans are month to month on monthly billing, so timing is usually yours.
