SecureCrews vs. Jobber
Jobber is a good product. But if you're paying transaction fees on every payment, getting charged per user, and missing features you need. There's a better option built specifically for how contractors actually work.

Why contractors leave Jobber
The complaints we hear most from teams that switched, and what changes when you move.
Transaction fees eat into every job
Jobber charges 2.9% + $0.30 on every credit card payment. On a $15,000 job, that's $435 gone. On $50,000/month in collections, that's over $1,450/month, more than most software subscriptions.
$0 in transaction fees. One flat monthly subscription. You keep every dollar your clients pay you.
Per-user fees punish you for growing your team
Jobber charges $29/month for every user beyond your plan's cap. A 15-person team on Grow pays $349 + (5 × $29) = $494/month, before transaction fees.
Unlimited users on every plan. Add crew members, office staff, and subcontractors without ever paying more.
QuickBooks integration constantly breaks
The most common complaint across every review platform. Users report line items dropping during sync, auto-sync breaking, and needing regular manual reconciliation.
Invoicing and payment tracking handled internally. No sync issues because your financial data lives in one system.
No way to prove your crew showed up and did the work
Jobber has basic GPS but no geofenced clock-in that verifies your crew is physically at the job site. No automatic client notification. No photo-verified milestones.
Crews must be within 300 feet to clock in. Client gets an auto-text. Each billing milestone requires a photo before the invoice unlocks.
If a client disputes the job, you have nothing
No timestamped evidence trail, no court-ready export. You're relying on memory and screenshots to defend a $40,000 job.
An immutable record for every job: GPS logs, signed docs, milestone photos, payments. One click generates a court-ready PDF.
Google Calendar only syncs every 24 hours
If you rely on Google Calendar for your personal schedule, Jobber's sync delay means you're always a day behind. Missed appointments happen.
A dedicated dispatch board with real-time scheduling and conflict detection built in.
