Software

[Michelle Myers]

I recognize that any software solution will require a certain amount of work to make it functional for our particular business. Does Jobber have an "interface" already in place for tree services that can be modified to our specific needs? Or do we have to start from scratch to modify Jobber to make it useful for tree service?

We need a desktop (microsoft) and mobile platform (IOS) that can gather data/estimates when there's no wifi or cell signal then process it when we're connected again. A functional CRM is the first requirement with the ability to do estimates and scheduling. QuickBooks connectivity is not required by us, but can be arranged if the software requires it. We've been looking into different solutions for over a year and we're still drowning in paperwork and details. I'm wondering if we are under valuing the power of Jobber after seeing so many recommendations for it by members here.

Comments?

Thanks,

Iris,
ALL cloud based CRM's with mobile apps need connectivity to work. This is the price we pay for instant upkeep to the server(s) and instant access to our data on the fly. I'm sure happy to walk you thru Arborgold and it's features if that is of interest. Just reach out to me on any of the avenues below or by private message here!
Thanks!!

Michelle.

I spoke with jobber when we were in the market and they confirmed it is not a CRM. It is essentially a module you would work within a suite of apps. It is not specific to us and needs some work to utilize. If you're not tech savvy then it may not be the best choice.

However, it was the simplicity of it that I liked.(And I am not tech-savvy, I cut trees for a living.)

It may not be tailored to the tree industry, but it is tailored to the service industry and everything is there to easily customize it to your needs.

I have been impressed with how quickly the Jobber team responds to questions, no matter how dumb they might be.

If you don't have internet service that is a problem, and I will say that their desktop mode is far superior to the app. With that being said, for job and client lookups the app is fine.

Michelle- last I checked arborgold was like $700,000 to get set up and you had to fly in a specialist from out of state.

Is that the case?

I always hated that there was no way to demo arborgold. It was a wing and a prayer commitment.

Jobber was free to try then a pittance of a monthly payment to maintain.

We pay $4548 annually for automated customer followup, automated appointments, unlimited customers, Dynamic proposals that replace a folder with sell sheets, about 3-4 office users and 4 mobile users. Pretty far from 700,oook.
