Pool Service Software

Jobber

Quote, schedule, invoice, and get paid—all in one place

Facts on this page checked on

Published 14 days

Jobber is general field-service management software for scheduling, quoting, invoicing, payments, and customer communication — not a pool-specific product. The company markets it across more than 50 trades (cleaning, construction, electrical, HVAC, landscaping, plumbing, pool service, and more) and states more than 400,000 home service professionals use it. A dedicated pool-service industry page positions Jobber for scheduling recurring pool routes, quoting, invoicing, and payments, and describes recording pool measurements and chemical usage in its generic job forms and custom fields — Jobber has no purpose-built water-chemistry or dosing calculator the way some pool-specific vendors do.

Jobber against the pool service checklist Jobber's own pages
Feature Support Checked
Recurring route scheduling Yes [src]
Pool-industry FAQ: "Jobber's pool service software makes it easy to schedule weekly recurring pool cleaning or maintenance jobs with just a couple clicks." Scheduling is on every plan, Core included.
 August 22, 2026
Route optimization Yes [src]
Pricing page's plan-comparison table: "Routing — Optimize daily or weekly routes for your whole team in seconds" is included on Connect, Grow, and Plus; not available on Core, the cheapest tier.
 August 22, 2026

iOS and Android app, included on every plan; also available in Spanish for field team members.
 August 22, 2026
Offline mode Partial [src]
Help article: notes and attachments can be added while offline — "the note (including the attachment) saves locally to your device and will sync to the server once the internet connection returns" — but logging out, deleting, or force-closing the app before it syncs loses the unsynced entry. Other team members can't see it until it syncs. No claim found that scheduling, dispatch, or other team members' updates work offline.
 August 22, 2026
Chemical readings and dosing Partial [src]
The pool-industry page says Jobber lets you "record pool measurements, and track chemical usage in one place," via generic job notes and custom fields (custom fields are on Connect and up, not Core) rather than a purpose-built water-chemistry or dosing calculator.
 August 22, 2026
Service verification photos Yes [src]
Plan-comparison table: "Job details and attachments — Track job details, and update from the field with notes, photos, and attachments." Included on every plan.
 August 22, 2026
Work orders and repairs Yes [src]
Jobber's "Jobs" are the general work unit for both recurring service and one-off repair/install work — there's no separate "work order" object. Requests, job details/forms/checklists, and on-my-way texts are all part of Job management.
 August 22, 2026
Estimates and proposals Yes [src]
