Comparison · Jobber
Looking at Jobber? Read this first.
Jobber is a capable, well-supported field-service platform, and a strong choice if you run a growing crew. But its pricing ladder and feature gating are built for teams, not for a solo operator or a two-person shop.
Texting is locked behind the Grow plan
Two-way text messaging only unlocks on Grow, at $149/mo billed yearly or $199 monthly. On Meep, texting is in Starter at $29/mo.
No built-in calling
Jobber's dedicated number handles texts only; inbound calls forward to a separate line you supply. Meep gives you a real business number for calls and texts in-app.
You buy a team-sized plan to get useful features
Connect and Grow bundle five to ten user seats a solo shop will never use, and every extra user adds $29/mo. Meep includes unlimited team members at every tier.

What you get on Meep
What you get on Meep
The features a small shop actually needs, in the first tier, at one price.

Booking, invoicing, quotes, e-sign, routing, leads and pipeline, and a website are all in. No Marketing Suite or Pipeline add-ons to tack on.
A real website with your domain
Starter includes a template site on your own custom domain, not a basic profile page.
Priced for a small shop

Compared against Jobber Grow ($149/mo billed yearly), the tier that includes two-way texting; Meep includes texting in Starter at $29/mo. Jobber Core is cheaper but has no two-way texting. Both plans include enough users for a four-person crew, so neither climbs in this range. Meep's Growth tier ($79/mo) is an optional marketing upgrade. Totals sum the monthly cost above over 60 months.
Frequently asked
Can I move my data off Jobber? +
Yes. Jobber lets admins export clients as CSV from settings, so your customer list isn't locked in. Import it into Meep when you switch.
What does Jobber do better? +
Deeper job-costing and reporting, native QuickBooks sync, and a larger onboarding and support organization. If you run a 15+ person crew that lives in those reports, Jobber is a serious tool.
Is Jobber's $29/mo price real? +
It's a 3-month introductory rate for new annual customers. After that the Core plan steps up, and Core doesn't include two-way texting, which starts on Grow.
Do I need a sales call to start either one? +
No. Both Jobber and Meep are self-serve with a 14-day trial. The difference is what's in the box and what you pay per user.
