Ivy vs Jobber for Solo Contractors & Home-Service Pros

Jobber's solo plans run $29-$149/month and it's built for field service. Where Jobber's depth matters, and where a $8.99/week all-in-one covers a one-truck business.

Jobber is the reference tool for home services - and if you're running crews, its dispatching, routing, and job costing justify the price tag. The solo operator question is narrower: what does a one-truck business actually use?

Jobber's public pricing starts at $29/mo for the solo core plan, rising to $99-$149/mo as features like automations and advanced quoting unlock, with team plans beyond that. Card processing runs about 2.9% + 30¢.

Competitor pricing reflects publicly listed plans as of mid-2026 and changes often - always verify on the vendor's own pricing page before deciding.

Choose Jobber if…

You have (or will soon have) a crew. Scheduling multiple techs, routing, and job costing are Jobber's core and worth paying for. No honest all-in-one for solos should pretend to replace that.

Choose Ivy if…

It's you and the truck. Your actual workflow - quote it, book it, do it, invoice it, get reviewed, get rebooked - fits Ivy's flat price, including the marketing layer (website, campaigns, review automation) that Jobber gates behind higher tiers. The change-order signature and the "did they pay?" nudge are built in too.

Quotes, invoices, and follow-ups in one place

Ivy handles quotes, scheduling, invoicing with pay links, review requests, and client messaging - for one flat price.
