FAQ
For one person, yes: Jobber Core is $49/mo month to month or $29/mo billed annually, against $79 or $59 for Housecall Pro Basic. At 3 users, Jobber Connect ($199/mo) and Housecall Pro Essentials ($189/mo) are close. At 8 users, Jobber Connect is $299/mo and Grow $399/mo, against $329/mo for MAX. At 20 users, Jobber is about $544 to $644 a month (an estimate; Jobber asks teams over 15 to contact sales) and Housecall Pro MAX is $749/mo.
Yes: 14 days, no credit card. Jobber’s trial runs on its Grow plan, without add-ons or two-way texting. Housecall Pro’s trial gives you MAX features. Both say your data is kept if the trial ends before you pay. ECHOPS also gives 14 days with no credit card.
It depends on how clients pay. Jobber charges 2.9% + 30¢ per card payment (2.7% + 30¢ with Tap to Pay) and 1% for US bank payments. Housecall Pro charges 2.59% in person, 2.99% on online invoices and 3.49% for keyed-in cards, cards on file and American Express; bank payments are 1%. On a $1,000 invoice paid online by card, that’s $29.30 with Jobber and $29.90 with Housecall Pro.
Both sync with QuickBooks Online from their second plan up: Jobber Connect and higher, Housecall Pro Essentials and MAX. Jobber’s info page names QuickBooks Online, not Desktop. ECHOPS syncs with QuickBooks Online on every plan.
Both are built mainly for home service work. Jobber schedules jobs and visits; we didn’t find project stages or named change orders on its pages. Housecall Pro lists change orders and multi-day jobs, and its info page says it’s “optimized for home-service businesses, not enterprise project environments.” For remodels, see ECHOPS vs Jobber and ECHOPS vs Housecall Pro.
Card payments, yes: clients pay invoice links by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or ACH through your own Stripe account. A native app, not yet: it runs in the browser on any phone and can be added to your home screen, and an iPhone app is on the way. Jobber and Housecall Pro both take card payments and have native iPhone and Android apps.
Mostly on price and how you start. Jobber and Housecall Pro publish prices and let you start a 14-day trial with no card; ServiceTitan doesn’t publish prices, charges per technician and starts with a demo (checked October 16, 2026). ServiceTitan is built for residential and commercial trades up to enterprise, with call booking, memberships and payroll. ECHOPS publishes prices too, with 3, 8 or 20 users. See ServiceTitan pricing.
Neither wins outright: both do progress invoicing and take card and ACH payments online. Jobber adds batch invoicing and automated invoice follow-ups from Connect up; Housecall Pro adds automatic reminders and cards on file, with card fees from 2.59% in person to 3.49% keyed in, against Jobber’s 2.9% + 30¢ (checked October 16, 2026). ECHOPS bills from the payment plan and takes card and ACH payments on invoice links through your own Stripe account, with reminders. See contractor invoicing software.
Only if the numbers and tools fit your team. Jobber costs less for one person (Core $49/mo vs Basic $79/mo, month to month) and offers 1-year and annual billing; Housecall Pro includes 8 users on MAX and puts job costing and review management on every plan (checked October 16, 2026). If you run remodels, ECHOPS is a third option. Export customers, jobs and your price book first; see leaving Housecall Pro.
