Honest Assessment

What Jobber does that ServiceKit doesn't.

By design (not planned):

  • No pre-built integrations beyond core stack
  • No 24/7 phone support team
  • No native iOS/Android app (PWA instead)
  • No VoIP or caller ID integration
  • No payroll integration
  • No multi-location management
  • Updates are pull-based — you decide when to update

Coming in future releases:

  • Customer-facing portal
  • Accounting sync (QuickBooks/Xero)
  • Parts and inventory tracking

What ServiceKit Does That Jobber Never Will

The things no SaaS can offer.

Deploy in 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Own it forever.

Fork the repo, follow the guide, and your field service app is live on your own server. No waiting for a sales call. No onboarding queue. You are live and in control immediately.

Full source code. Yours to modify.

Jobber gives you a login. ServiceKit gives you the code. Every line. Customize any feature, add new workflows, build new integrations. No vendor permission required.

$349 once. No monthly fees, ever.

Jobber charges $49+/month for as long as you use it. After 5 years that is $2,940+. ServiceKit is $349 total. You break even before the end of your first year.

AI quoting built in.

Jobber has no AI quoting. ServiceKit has it built in. Photo upload, Claude AI analysis, instant quote generation. Included in the $349.

19 lessons teaching you how it works.

The full build course is included. You understand every piece of your app. When something needs changing, you change it yourself instead of waiting on Jobber support.
