Quotefy vs Jobber

Jobber is broad field-service software for many trades. Quotefy is purpose-built for house cleaners.

TL;DR — our verdict

Jobber is genuinely a great product. It's also $49/mo minimum and built for plumbers, electricians, landscapers, AND cleaners — so the cleaning-specific UX is generic. For a solo cleaner, Quotefy gets you more cleaning-specific tooling (calculator, recurring discounts, BLS-anchored state pricing) at a third of the entry cost.

Where Jobber wins

  • Best-in-class field service operations: scheduling, routing, customer portal, mobile apps
  • Robust integrations (QuickBooks, Stripe, Google Calendar)
  • Native iOS + Android apps
  • Mature reporting and team management

Where Jobber falls short

  • $49/mo entry tier is steep for a solo cleaner just starting out
  • Multi-trade UX means the cleaning workflow is generic, not opinionated
  • No cleaning-specific pricing calculator with per-state defaults
  • Setup is 30+ minutes of configuration vs Quotefy's 3-minute onboarding

Pick Quotefy when

You're a solo cleaner or running a 1–2 person operation. You don't need scheduling-for-many. You want a tool that already knows what "deep clean" and "move-out clean" mean.

Pick Jobber when

You're a multi-trade contractor (cleaning + handyman + landscaping), or your cleaning operation has 5+ employees and you need full FSM (field service management) with route optimization.

Common questions

Why is Jobber so much more expensive?

+

Jobber is built for the whole field-service category — plumbers, HVAC, landscapers, cleaners. The $49 entry tier reflects that breadth, and a mature product with a support org behind it. Quotefy is narrower (cleaning only) and new enough that it's free while it finds its feet — compare the feature lists, not the price tags.

Does Jobber have a cleaning-specific calculator?

+

No. Jobber has line-item estimates and a generic 'job costing' feature, but nothing that takes cleaning-specific inputs (sqft, bedrooms, bathrooms, job type) and produces a price. Quotefy's calculator is purpose-built for that workflow.

Can I run Quotefy and Jobber together?

+

Possible but redundant. Both handle invoicing and payments. If you're already on Jobber and it works, stay. If you're considering Jobber and you're a solo cleaner, try Quotefy first — you may find you don't need the rest of what Jobber sells.
