5.0

Nichole F.: My name is Nichole. I'm the owner and operator of My 3 Daughters, LLC. It's a cleaning and home service company. And I give Jobber a five-star review. I was using Google Workspace and FieldPulse. It just weren't integrating as well for my day-to-day process as I would like. I chose Jobber because I liked all the additional bonuses it has. I like the photographs. I like the designated phone number. I like that I can chat back and forth in the app with the customers through text message or a phone call. I like that I can let my employees see what I want them to see. I don't have to give them all the information. There's so many things that I like actually. There's not one thing that I dislike about the app. I like that there has the GPS location for when they clock in and out. And I like that the clients can also, as well, see that my employees are at the place of work at when they say they are. It was very easy to onboard Jobber. There is a import and export feature, which made it very simple. Pretty much just click the button, and everything is there. I recommend starting out with the Core plan because you can always downgrade if you don't need any of the features, but it's nice to see what it actually can do from the start. I started off a little lower, and then worked my way up, and I regret it. The Core plan has a lot of really good, cool features that you don't really want to miss out on.
