Jobber vs ServiceTitan: which one do you need?
Jobber is the right tool for most home service companies up to 15 users: published prices from $29 a month, route optimization, online payments and a 14-day free trial. ServiceTitan is built for large HVAC, plumbing and electrical companies that need call booking, memberships and configurable payroll, and it quotes per technician on request. Move up only when you have the call volume and the staff to use what ServiceTitan adds. Facts checked on both companies' pages November 12, 2026; third-party figures are labelled.
By the Birdy team · Facts checked
We make Birdy, which competes with both, so this is not an independent review. Every fact about Jobber and ServiceTitan comes from their own websites, help centers and app store listings, linked under Sources and checked November 12, 2026. Third-party figures are labelled.
Where Birdy fits
For an owner-run company where several people in the office answer leads and speed to lead matters, we recommend Birdy. It is closer in size to Jobber than to ServiceTitan, and built for something both handle less directly: knowing who owns each lead and how long it has waited. Birdy does not publish prices yet: pricing is set when your account is opened.
A good fit when
- Several people answer customers and you want each thread assigned to one person, with a Mine tab and Mark done.
- You want each lead's age on the board and speed to lead and close rate by rep in Reports.
- You run a few trucks with set crews and want a dispatch board by truck with booked versus available hours.
- You sell good, better and best quotes and service plans with rotations.
Look elsewhere when
- You need card payments or texting today: both are coming in Birdy.
- You need automatic route optimization, QuickBooks sync, a phone system or a native App Store app.
- You are a large trades company with call takers and memberships: ServiceTitan fits better.

Which to choose
Jobber is the better choice if
- You have up to 15 users and want to know your price before you talk to sales.
- You run recurring routes and want route optimization from the second plan.
- You want customers to approve quotes and pay through a client hub, with published card fees.
- You want to be working in it this week.
ServiceTitan is the better choice if
- You have a call center or several call takers booking jobs all day.
- You sell memberships on equipment and need configurable payroll and commission tracking.
- You have more than 15 technicians and the staff to run a long setup.
When should a company move from Jobber to ServiceTitan?
When the phone, not the schedule, is the bottleneck. ServiceTitan's packages start with call booking and add memberships, payroll and advanced reporting; its Pro products cover marketing, contact centers, dispatch and fleets. If you have call takers, memberships on equipment and more than 15 technicians, those earn their cost. If your work is routes and repeat visits, Jobber's route optimization and client hub usually cover it for far less.
