Inventory Management Apps w/ Integration?
Hello all, My name is Kyle, and I'm the Office Manager with my company. Recently, we've made some moves to further improve the list of products that we sell, and services we provide. With this being said, our current method of keeping track of our inventory will have to improve with this. Does anyone know of any inventory management apps that integrate with Jobber that they'd recommend? I've looked into adding Ply into our Jobber, but I'm not entirely sure that it will solve all of our issues. I'm looking for some other routes we could take that could potentially work better for us. Thank you all for any and all recommendations! KyleBest Jobber Automations
I just wanted to get a post going for these. They can be super powerful in your business and I feel like they don't get talked about enough sometimes. What are your best Jobber automations you have set up?? I really enjoy dashboards myself that give more custom information about my business. I like to use Airtable / Asana / Zapier. Cheers !Curious ... do most teams back up job files from Jobber?
Hey all, just wondering if this is something others have run into. A few of our clients have been talking about how they handle long-term storage of job photos and documents, especially when staff leave, or when they want to organize files outside of Jobber. Some mentioned wanting to move things to Google Drive or DropBox automatically, but I’m not sure how common that need really is. Just curious, have you or your team thought about this? Is keeping a backup of Jobber media files part of your process, or not really a concern? Appreciate any thoughts! JoshYou Don’t Need More Hours — You Need the Right People
Everyone says they want to grow — but few are willing to let go. The inbox, the content, the sales follow-ups, the backend bugs — they hang onto it all, thinking it’s the only way to keep control. I get it. I used to do the same. But over the last 9+ years, I’ve built and scaled businesses by doing the opposite: building a remote team I trust, and getting out of their way. Not just “virtual assistants” — real professionals. People who run content, sales outreach, client communication, systems, software, and everything in between. They don’t just lighten the load. They raise the bar. This approach has been a game changer — not just for saving time, but for building momentum that actually lasts. It’s what I’ve been doing successfully for nearly a decade. If you’re wondering where to find this kind of talent, how to train them, or how to make it actually work long-term — drop your questions. Lets talk!What Features Would Be Helpful for Dealing with Subcontractors on Your Team?
Subcontractors can be a powerful way to grow your service business—but managing them smoothly takes the right tools. From scheduling to paperwork to payments, things can get complicated fast if you're relying on spreadsheets or text threads. Here are a few key ideas to kick off the conversation: Insurance Certificate Tracking + Expiration Reminders Making sure your subcontractors are insured is a no-brainer—but keeping track of their certificates and renewal dates can be a hassle. A built-in feature that stores insurance docs and sends automatic reminders before they expire would help keep your business protected and organized. Built-in Payment Processing for Subcontractors Paying subs quickly and clearly is essential for maintaining good relationships. Imagine being able to approve their invoices and process payments right through Jobber—no more chasing emails or juggling payment apps. Subcontractor Availability Scheduling Knowing when your subs are available is half the battle. A shared calendar where subcontractors can input their availability would make job assignment way easier and help avoid scheduling conflicts before they happen. What would you like to see added to help manage subcontractors better? Drop your ideas in the comments—👇
veterans connect
Hello everybody, I am mostly reaching out to my veteran/ active military crowd here. would like to get a thread started to get the conversation going about resources for veteran owned businesses. what resources have you guys used to further your business, i just started the warrior rising program and it is very informative.Clocking in/out
Hi everyone! My company is new to Jobber and we are working on getting all the details set up within the portal. So far so good, but there is one hurdle we are trying to overcome - technicians' capability to clock in and out for the day. I do not want it to be possible for them to do so on their phone because, as everyone can imagine, time theft could occur. Though I understand that there are features for automatic location timers and way points, it seems like that would be more work involved for us to monitor accuracy and make edits on time punches on a daily basis. I also know that we can set up a tablet in the office for our techs to clock in/out when they are physically on site to start and end their day, but using their email to log into Jobber to do so would pose the issues - most of our techs are not English speaking and do not use email so it would take time for them to log in/out each day. Our previous program had the capability for our techs to clock in/out using a tablet in office with a 4-digit code (the last digits of their phone number). We liked this because of the ease, speed, and simplicity it took for everyone. Sorry for my long-winded post, but all in all, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on ways we can make the daily clocking in/out the most efficient and uncomplicated for EVERYONE involved, meaning techs AND office personnel. I appreciate the help and advice!
Technician Performance Report
I am just coming over from service titan.. One report that is really important to me is technician performance report we had. We could see their avg ticket, their daily avg, month to date sales ect... a report that I can see how much a tech has invoiced for is imperative. Any chance this is coming? How are you other business owners tracking how your tech's are doing? I don't want to pay the guy who is doing bare min. the same as the guys who are taking their job seriously well organised and hustling.Best Work Flow for Ordering
Hi everyone! Does anyone currently use Jobber in their work flow specifically for when making orders. For example if you place an order for equipment how do you let the team know? Do you set up a task in Jobber with the tracking number? Looking to optimize our current workflow and didn’t know if Jobber was a good one for it or if I need to look into another system. Thank you in advance!How Are You Building Your Systems & Processes?
I’ve been diving into ways to build better systems and processes lately, and I’m curious to learn from the community. Whether it's managing workflows, tracking progress, or using flowcharts, there are so many tools and methods out there to explore. What are you using to stay organized, efficient, and productive? Are you a fan of tools like Lucidchart, Trello, or Asana? What’s the biggest challenge you’ve faced in building systems that actually work for you or your team? Personally, I’ve been experimenting with Chatgpt and Lucidchart, but I’m always looking for fresh ideas to improve. Let’s share what’s working (or not!) and inspire each other to level up our workflows. Looking forward to hearing about your tools, processes, and insights!
