Landscape, cleaning, HVAC, and general home service businesses that want solid scheduling basics at a mid-range price.
Local service businesses (HVAC, plumbing, cleaning, landscaping, auto repair, and more) with 1–20 employees who want a single unified platform for scheduling, CRM, invoicing, and customer marketing — without paying for 5 separate tools.
Ops-Deck founding members get 6 months completely free, then $49/month locked forever — no per-user fees, no add-on costs. Jobber's full-featured plan (Grow) is $249/month plus you still need separate marketing tools. Founding members save $2,400+/year vs Jobber Grow.
Jobber has a contact database, but it's not a true CRM. There's no lead pipeline, no deal stages, and no marketing automation. Ops-Deck includes a full CRM with pipelines, follow-up automation, and lead tracking out of the box.
Both work for HVAC. Jobber is solid for scheduling and dispatch. Ops-Deck adds built-in CRM, customer marketing automation, and a booking website — meaning you don't need to pay for separate tools like Mailchimp or Calendly.
Yes. We offer free migration assistance. Export your Jobber customer list as CSV and we'll help you import it in under an hour. Most businesses are fully migrated within a week.
