Both are good. Both were built for a shop bigger than one truck. Here is where each one wins, what the same crew pays on each, and the flat-price option nobody's comparison page lists.

Jobber's cheapest way to seat everyone, tier plus extra seats. Housecall Pro publishes an entry price and quotes the rest, so only the entry price can be shown without guessing.

Jobber as published on their pricing page, checked 2026-09-04. Housecall Pro as published on theirs, checked 2026-09-04. Prices move. Check both before you decide anything.
One case where Jobber is the better answer, so you do not have to find it yourself: if their marketing tools or their app store are what you are paying for, none of the arithmetic below matters. On price alone it is not close. Two people cost $29 here against $68 for Core plus one extra seat, and the gap keeps opening from there.
Switching from Jobber: the full pageIf most of your work arrives through their consumer booking and marketing tools, that is a real advantage and this page is not going to talk you out of it.
Switching from Housecall Pro: the full pageBoth bring work in through consumer booking and marketing tools we do not have. Both import your customers. And both were priced for a team rather than a truck: Jobber by charging per seat above each tier's limit, Housecall Pro by quoting the tiers above entry and asking for a year up front. If you are choosing between them, you are choosing which of those two shapes you would rather grow into.
One flat price for the business. Crew logins come with the plan instead of per head, the margin is on the quote while you build it, and there is no annual commitment. It is field service management sized for one to five trucks, which is a smaller thing than either of them and, for a smaller shop, the right size.
At the entry price, Jobber: $39 a month for one person against Housecall Pro from $79. At two people Jobber is $68 with one extra seat. Above that Jobber prices per seat and Housecall Pro quotes its tiers rather than publishing them, so the honest answer past two people is to ask them, and to read the table above for what can be modelled.
Neither was built for one. Both price for a team and both carry tooling a solo operator never opens. If you are one truck, or one truck planning to become three, the flat-price option on this page is the comparison worth running before either of them.
Yes. Export your customers from either as a CSV and upload it; their column names are ones we already know, so there is usually nothing to match by hand. Quotes, jobs and invoices do not come across from either, which is true of every product in this category, but open balances arrive as unpaid invoices.
No. Both have consumer booking and marketing tools that bring in work, and we have nothing like that. Both import more than customers. What is different here is price: crew logins come with the plan instead of per head, and the margin is on the quote while you build it, not in a report afterwards.
