Jobber alternative
InstaQuote vs Jobber.Said fairly.
Quotes, scheduling, invoicing, payments, online booking and a website, built for North America and priced in US dollars. Here's where it's good, and where InstaQuote does the job differently.
Where Jobber is good
- A big, polished app with a lot of features.
- Online booking and a website builder.
- AI tools for calls and texts.
Where InstaQuote is different
- Priced in US dollars, and its site doesn't mention UK VAT or CIS; InstaQuote is UK-built and prices in pounds.
- A customer can book, but moving their own date wasn't found on their site; with InstaQuote they can.
- The books go to QuickBooks Online; InstaQuote keeps them on its Accounts plan.

Nothing taken on the quiet.
No card to start. At the end you pick a plan, or the account pauses with nothing deleted. The only thing we take in the free week is 2.9% of card payments you collect through the app.
No call to see a price.
Every price is on this page, in pounds. No demo to sit through first.
One price, not a price per head.
Accounts covers up to 10 crew logins for the same monthly price. Taking someone on doesn't put your bill up.
