Jobber is a polished, popular generalist - and like most big platforms, its pricing scales per user and its best features live in the top tiers. Boardman takes the opposite bet: everything included, one flat price, built for crews of 1–20.
| Boardman | Jobber | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Flat monthly - from $99, unlimited techs on top tier | Tiered + per-user costs as the team grows |
| Job costing / margin per job | Included on every plan | Reserved for top-tier plans |
| Automatic review requests | Included | Gated to higher tiers |
| Photo required to close a job | Built-in rule | Photos optional |
| Dispatch board & scheduling | Included | Included - genuinely good |
| Invoicing & card payments | Included (Stripe) | Included (Jobber Payments) |
| Feature requests | Text the founder; shipped in days | Feature request forum |
If you strip the marketing, the difference is philosophy. Jobber charges more as you grow and meters its best tools by tier. Boardman includes the whole system - booking page, leads, dispatch, routes, tech app with photo proof, invoices, payments, review automation, job costing - for one price that doesn't punish you for hiring your fourth tech.
Jobber's ecosystem is mature: deep QuickBooks sync, a large app marketplace, years of polish. If you want the safest big-brand choice and the per-user pricing doesn't bother you, it's a good product. If you want everything included and a direct line to the person who builds it, that's us.
