Jobber Software

Posted by Steve Deas on June 10, 2018 at 1:29pm in Business

Hi All,

 

I know a few are using Jobber, so a couple of questions

 

If you set up say five teams and then a load of sites jobber seems to think a team can be in two places at once or even three places is this correct.

Does it not know teams can not do this.

 

Also does not appear to be able to alocate an asset like a tractor to a site, so when working on scheduling work , no way for it to work out tractor can not 

on two sites at once,

 

Scheduling work, squads ,assets is a major part of my work was hoping this soft ware would help but I think it lacking is this area.

 

Anyone fould a better bit of software.

    In Jobber you can add custome notes and fields etc to say what is needed at a specific site but it won't let you allocate machinery to jobs and it yes it does let you allocate a team to different places at the same time.  All our guys are colour coded so it's visuallly obviuos but it depends on how many teams you are trying to schedule. 

    It's good but it's not perfect.  They are always updating and improving though.

    We create an asset as a ‘user’ and include our vans in this. That way you can schedule the asset into a particular job and check with a quick glance. 

    Nor perfect but it works well for us and overall we rate Jobber highly.
