Field Stash vs Jobber

Jobber is a mature, broad field-service platform for many trades, with a big integration marketplace and a low $29 entry price. But it's a generalist, its cost climbs with every user and add-on, and the tools that win painting jobs are either extra or missing. Field Stash is painting-specific and includes what Jobber charges for or doesn't offer: an AI phone attendant, painting production rates, unlimited users, plus self-serve quoting, drive-time booking, and a color visualizer.

Where Jobber has the edge

  • A lower entry price ($29/mo Core) and a large, established user base.
  • A much bigger integration marketplace and ecosystem, including consumer financing and GPS tracking.
  • More generalist field-service breadth - route optimization, expense tracking, and more - across 50+ trades.

The pricing difference

Field Stash
One flat plan, unlimited users, everything included (founder pricing available).
Jobber
Core $29 up to Plus $399/mo, but users are capped per tier and each additional user is +$29/mo - a 10-person shop is already on Grow ($149) or Plus ($399). The AI Receptionist, Marketing Suite (+$79/mo), and Pipeline (+$49/mo) are paid add-ons on top. Cost climbs with your team and the tools you turn on.

Jobber pricing verified from getjobber.com/pricing on 2026-07-05. Prices can change - check their current page. Jobber's own pages showed the AI Receptionist add-on price inconsistently, so it's described as an add-on without a specific figure.

Questions

Yes - Jobber offers an AI Receptionist, but it's a paid add-on, included only on the $399/mo Plus plan. Field Stash's AI phone attendant is included, and it books against your real drive-time availability.
