Where Jobber is better
- Dispatch and routing: a calendar plus map-based route generation and nearest-teammate assignment for a crew's day
- Client-facing tools: online booking, and a client hub where customers approve quotes and pay
- QuickBooks Online sync, and Jobber Payments for card and recurring billing
- An AI Receptionist that answers calls and texts around the clock, and a marketing suite for reviews and campaigns
Where Rillo is better
- Built for the selling side: follow-ups, quotes, coaching debriefs (in beta) and a book of people, not only jobs and invoices
- Every seat is the full CRM at one price. Jobber holds its automation builder, two-way texting and job costing for Grow and above
- AI drafting is part of the seat, and Rillo asks before it sends what it writes for you
- Nine industries with their own presets, not one trade-shaped template
Questions people ask
Is Rillo a Jobber replacement?
Not for everything. If your day is dispatching crews and invoicing jobs, Jobber is built for that. If the trouble is remembering what was said and following up, that is what Rillo is for.
Can I use both?
Yes. They are separate tools, and starting Rillo does not ask you to leave Jobber.
Which costs less?
For one person on yearly billing, Jobber's Core plan ($29 a month) costs less than a Rillo seat ($39). Month to month, Core is $49 and a Rillo seat is $49. For a team, compare seat by seat: every Rillo seat is the same price, while Jobber's price rises in steps.
