Jobber is $49. FixyFlow is $0. Same text-the-customer-when-it’s-ready. Minus the $49.
If your shop is you, a bench, and a phone — you don’t need Jobber. You need the thing Jobber’s customers use Jobber for: a live tracking page that stops the “is it ready?” calls. That’s FixyFlow. Free on 5 jobs a month. $15 when you outgrow it.

The honest answer
Jobber is great. It’s also $49/mo.
Jobber is built for shops with 5, 10, 20 crews. It schedules them, quotes them, invoices them, tracks inventory, connects to QuickBooks. If you have a team and an accountant, Jobber is probably worth $49 to you. If your shop is one bench and a phone — keep reading.

The 1–5 person shop
What you actually need at 1–5 people.
You need the customer to know their phone is ready without calling.
You need a photo they can see. You need a Google review after pickup. That’s it.
Jobber does those things. But so does FixyFlow, for free on 5 jobs a month and $15 on 20.
Jobber’s best features are scheduling 8 crews, routing them through a city, invoicing them on NET-30 terms, and syncing into a chart of accounts. If that’s not you, you’re paying $49 for the one feature you actually use: the customer SMS.
FixyFlow gives you that feature, in a more polished form (live tracking page, photo timeline, estimate approval), for free.

How to switch1 2 3
The switch takes an afternoon. Really.
You keep your existing tools for invoicing if you want. Most shops find they don’t need to keep anything else once Free is running.
Log your next job
Type the customer name, phone, and device. Hit Received. The tracking link is already on its way to their phone.
Cancel Jobber at month-end
Most shops wait a week to confirm FixyFlow is covering what they need, then cancel at month-end. No migration tool needed — new jobs go in FixyFlow; Jobber finishes the open ones.

Side-by-side — the numbers

What shop owners say
Three operators who already stopped answering the phone.
★★★★★
“If this cuts my complaint calls in half, it’s worth every penny. The automatic SMS means I actually get to work on the car instead of explaining the car.”

Honest answers — about you, us, and Jobber
Answered straight.
Should I stay on Jobber?+
If you have 6+ crews, you need route dispatch, you run recurring service contracts with payment plans, or you need QuickBooks inventory sync — yes. Jobber is the right tool. FixyFlow isn’t trying to replace it for your scale.
Is FixyFlow really free, or a limited trial?+
Free forever on 5 jobs a month and 20 SMS. No credit card, no expiry. Most 1-person shops stay on it for months before upgrading.
What about scheduling?+
FixyFlow doesn’t schedule. If scheduling is your bottleneck, stay on Jobber or use Google Calendar. What FixyFlow replaces is the customer communication — the texts, the tracking, the review asks.
Can I export my data if I leave?+
Yes. CSV export of everything, any time. No lock-in. If FixyFlow isn’t for you, your data comes with you.
How do I move my customers from Jobber?+
CSV import. Export your customer list from Jobber, upload to FixyFlow. Your open jobs stay in Jobber; new ones start in FixyFlow. Most shops clean-cut at month-end.
Will my customers use it?+
They get a link via SMS. They tap it. They see the tracker in their browser. No app, no login. If they can read a text, they can read this.
What about white-label?+
On the Business plan ($149/mo). If brand control is critical for your shop, that’s the tier.
