Force Fleet Tracking and Ply both integrate directly with Jobber, but they serve two distinct operational functions.
Force Fleet Tracking integrates with Jobber on Connect and Grow plans in the US. It uses plug-and-play OBD-II tracking devices that connect to vehicle diagnostic ports. Once connected, it displays live vehicle locations, speed, fuel levels, and battery health directly on your Jobber dispatch map and schedule. It also syncs with Jobber’s "On My Way" text notifications, sending clients a live tracking link to see arrival progress. The hardware tracks OBD-equipped motor vehicles rather than unpowered equipment, trailers, or handheld tools.
Ply integrates with Jobber on Core, Connect, and Grow plans using real-time webhooks. When a job is scheduled in Jobber, job details, client information, and custom fields automatically sync to Ply. You can view material details, pricing, and stock levels inside Jobber and reserve inventory when booking a job. Ply's dedicated platform manages mobile barcode scanning, truck stock tracking, automated supplier purchase orders, and min/max reorder thresholds. Material usage and purchasing records logged in Ply feed back into Jobber jobs for job costing.
Choosing between them depends on whether your immediate focus is fleet location tracking and arrival notifications, or managing inventory stock and material purchasing across your jobs.
