Map and Routing
Brief: Is there a way to see all client properties (active and inactive) overlaid with active work properties? Context: It would be nice to have the ability to see all properties (including inactive jobs or just customers in the area) in the vicinity of an active job when scheduling. This could create opportunities for inspections, follow-ups, upsells, and general efficiency for our business. Does anyone have a workaround for this? Ideally, it would be similar to the toggle for "unscheduled jobs" so there is still the ability to have a clean view of what work is pressing. Preferably color coded and available on the mobile app. Any advice would be appreciated! Alternatively, is there a way to see all clients (active and inactive) by a geographic scope (county, municipality, by tag, etc.)? *I am aware that this view exists in part under route optimization under settings but without the ability to see active jobs.56Views1like3CommentsScheduling For Lawn Care -UK
Hi - I signed up for Jobber a while ago when I was working for another company. I've now gone independent and I'm trying to streamline the diary/schedule. The majority of customer's are on a programme so I've set recurring visits up for approx. 10 week intervals. The last software I used focused on routes, you added a customer to a particular route and any alteration, if the day needed to be rescheduled for instance, was done to the route and subsequently all customers would move to the new date. I'm finding with jobber that you have to edit each individual customer which is time consuming. Also is there a quick way to change a customers job from one off to recurring? ~Any feed back would be appreciated18Views0likes1CommentHow do you deliver a great customer experience?

Hi everyone, I wanted to start a discussion around how home service teams capture job notes, follow-ups, and action items during busy workdays, especially while on-site, on calls, or moving between jobs in Jobber. In many service workflows, essential details come up verbally: - Notes after a customer conversation - Follow-ups discussed on the phone - Reminders during travel between jobs These often get entered into the system later, which can lead to missed context or extra admin work at the end of the day. One approach we’ve been exploring is using AI-powered voice input through tools like Gennie, where teams can speak notes or tasks and have them synced back into their existing systems while Jobber remains the system of record. I’m interested to hear from others here: - How do you currently capture job notes or follow-ups when typing isn’t convenient? - Do you update everything in real time or batch it later? - Would voice-based input be helpful in field operations, or does it create more overhead? Looking forward to learning how others approach AI and operations in real-world home service workflows.81Views0likes3CommentsSwitching from Spreadsheets to Fleet Management Software: What Changed for You?
If you have moved from spreadsheets or whiteboards to a fleet management tool, what changed the most for you day to day? Did it save time, reduce mistakes, or improve visibility across your vehicles? Is the switch actually worth it? I personally used to keep my schedule in Excel until one day I missed an appointment. This is where Jobber came in for me, but what is your story?23Views0likes0CommentsHow do service businesses track service contracts and manage multi-day or multi-visit jobs?
Hello! How are you entering and keeping track of service contracts? We sell, install and service generators and want to make sure we are properly tracking these and ensuring renewals don't slip through the cracks. Some are once a year visit, some need 2 visits, some need 4. How do you guys do this? What about jobs that require multiple visits? Our installs take time from the moment we get the project approved, to then getting the permit approved, and the individual days of work, inspections, etc. Looking for tips on this. Thanks!113Views1like2CommentsJob Forms (Checklists) Not Good Enough For Tracking Job Status
Jobber advertises being able to track the progress/completion of Jobs using the Forms (checklist) function. Where it is attached to the Job when creating it. But it seems very deficient and does not really work as advertised or implied. If you have multiple visits or follow-ups to a Job, especially if its because something wasn't complete on an initial visit, that the checklist form wouldn't have been completed... but when you schedule a new visit for crew to go back to that Job to complete the prior visit, you are presented with a whole new Form attached to that visit... the form is blank. Filling out a whole new version of the same form already partially filled out makes no sense to me, we would want the Form/Checklist to show the items that were already completed. Then we easily know what we have left to do on this follow-up visit. And, the only place to view the Job Form status info is either directly in the form, or in Reports. Reports is a great view, and feels like actual Project Management, you can view the status of the Job essentially based on Form data... but again, you end up with multiples of the same form showing up on that screen, one for every time there is a new visit. This makes that view messy, hard to track the true status, making the Report faulty data, and again makes no sense. This in no way is a Job form to me, its a Visit form. And that is NOT the same thing. All of this data input across all Forms should be collective, and ideally we should see the Completion Status of that form on the JOB level view and pop-ups, this would give all users the ability to see the status of the Job and whats left to do at a glance. In short, you should only ever have 1 instance of the specific Form, or Forms, associated with the Job (or atleast the option to make it so) and it follows every subsequent visit showing the prior checked off items. We often have multiple checklists associated with a single Job, as each form is needed for 1 of multiple phases of that Job, which is completed over months. We are already lacking 'Project' level management for handling large multi-phase Jobs, if the Forms function was linked properly it would make it feel less lacking overall, as these Forms could act more like project management and status tracking. Or, am I missing something? Or could we get tight integration with an App/3rd Party service that could fill that Project Management gap?Solved55Views0likes2CommentsHow do you manage different level Service Contracts in Jobber?
We are currently offering one service contract; however, we are looking to create three tiers. We would have a Silver, Gold, and Platinum package. Each package/membership would offer something different. How could we effectively manage this in Jobber to keep track of which clients are on which level package? How many visits they have/have used? Payments? Etc.84Views0likes2CommentsFinding out when a client profile was created?
So I took a call from a customer on a Friday afternoon after a busy day, he wanted service for the next week so I put in his name and address in a job booking, but forgot to take down his number! It is in my call log on my phone, but I had so many calls that day and I don't remember which number was his. I was wondering if there was a way to see what day/time a client/job was entered in Jobber so I can cross reference my call log?40Views0likes2Comments
