Key take-away

Fintrano

Fintrano focuses on keeping job management simple for small and growing service businesses, with straighforward pricing and an emphasis on customer communication and an easy-to-use workflow.

Jobber

Jobber is a broader field service management platform, combining scheduling and job management with quoting, invoicing, payments, online booking, client communications and a customer portal. It's a good option for businesses looking for more tools to manage the wider customer and business journey in one system.

 

What is Jobber?

Jobber is cloud-based field service management software designed for home and commercial service businesses. It brings together job scheduling, quoting, invoicing, payments, customer communication and other tools for managing day-to-day operations.

What
Jobber
does:

 

  • Manages scheduling, dispatching and job workflows for home and commercial service businesses.
  • Handles quotes, invoices, payments and customer communications from one platform.
  • Includes customer-facing tools such as online booking and a client portal, alongside reporting and business management features.

What to
consider

  • Breadth of features: Jobber combines job management with a wide range of functionality. consider whether you need this or would prefer a more focussed system.
  • Customer experience: Jobber includes tools such as online booking and a client portal. Consider if it is useful for your customers to interact with your business digitally.
  • Simplicity and growth: Do you need a platform that can support more areas of your business as you grow, or a straightforwards system focussed primarily on managing jobs and customer communication.

When Fintrano
makes sense

Fintrano is often the better choice for small or growing business because of how it charges for its software. Jobber makes you pay a fixed monthly fee for every single worker you add to its system, which can get very expensive as you hire more people. Fintrano pricing is per job, so adding more users to your system won't cost you any extra in monthly fees. Fintrano is very good for customer service as it includes four automatic text alerts for every single job, and it gives you instant live-location tracking so your clients can watch your arrival on a map.

Fintrano's philosophy

We believe software should adapt to the way that small businesses work, rather than expect you to adapt to the software. That's why we prioritise clarity and simplicity over unnecessary complexity.

  • Platform freedom – Your team can use Android, iPhone, or a laptop; whatever they already have.
  • Clear customer communication with 4 automated texts per job to confirm, remind, track and request feedback.
  • Zero learning curve – If you can use a calendar, you can use Fintrano. No templates to configure, no modules to learn.
  • Customer experience focus – Automatic confirmations, reminders, live location tracking, and review requests are built in. Your customers get a premium experience without you lifting a finger.
  • Review generation – Fintrano actively helps you build your online reputation by requesting revies after every job.
  • Genuinely simple pricing – 80p per job (or 70p on Pro). No surprises, scales with your business.

When Fintrano
isn't right:

  • You want a broader all-in-one platform covering job management alongside online booking, invoicing, payments and customer self-service tools.
  • You want customers to be able to interact with your business through features such as online booking and a dedicated client portal.
  • You need a wider range of business management features and are happy to use a more comprehensive platform as your business grows.

Fintrano has changed the way we work. It saves us time, keeps customers happy, and makes every job run smoothly.

Jack McWilliam, McWilliam Electrical Services

For us, it was the perceived quality. Quality companies do stuff like this. Quality companies tell you exactly when they're going to be there.

Gav, Coffee Central

It keeps that repeat custom with our existing customers. And I'm not spending hundreds of pounds on advertising when my customers' word of mouth is our advertising.

Ben, Made4Pressure

That’s what I love about it. I’m getting so many more reviews because I never ever asked before. I still don’t ask for reviews — but we just get them.

If you take Fintrano away, our customer experience would be a little bit less. And I don't want it to be a little bit less.

Gav, Coffee Central

It’s made us more efficient, more professional, and it gives customers confidence in who we are. I wouldn’t want to be without it. It’s an invaluable part of our business.
