Jobber pricing for electrical contractors comes down to three numbers: your crew size, the tier you need, and what the price does after the first 12 months. This guide lays out all three for a 6-10 person shop, using Jobber's own pricing page as read on October 19, 2026.
It also covers the question the pricing page can't answer for you. When the invoice lands, will your customer understand what they paid for?
Prices change. Jobber's page was running a "Save up to 40%" promotion that it says ends October 30th. Every number below is dated October 19, 2026. Recheck getjobber.com/pricing before you sign anything.
The Situation Behind the Search
A common trigger: a customer looks at a T&M invoice, sees "Labor: 16.5 hrs," and asks what that was for. The foreman remembers. The invoice doesn't.
The work was real. The charge was fair. What was missing was the explanation. Keep that in mind while reading the price tables, because it's the test any tool has to pass.
What Does Jobber Cost for a 6-10 Person Electrical Crew?
As of October 19, 2026, on annual prepaid billing for 6-10 people, Jobber listed Connect at $161/mo, Grow at $210/mo, and Plus at $315/mo for the first 12 months. After that the prices step up to $229, $299, and $449 per month. Each of those tiers says "Includes 10 users."
| Tier (6-10 people view) | First 12 months | After 12 months | Users included | What the tier adds (per Jobber's page) |
|---|
| Connect | $161/mo | $229/mo | 10 | Sync with QuickBooks Online; track time and expenses |
| Grow | $210/mo | $299/mo | 10 | Track time automatically; track profitability with job costing; two-way SMS; custom workflow automations |
| Plus | $315/mo | $449/mo | 10 | Crew scheduling; custom reports; Premium Support (Contact Sales) |
All three figures are billed annually. The page also showed struck-through prices next to them: Connect $299, Grow $399, Plus $599. The page didn't say which billing option those belong to, so ask Jobber before you compare.
Core is a one-person plan. In the "Just me" view it was $21/mo for 12 months, then $29/mo, billed annually. It does not appear in the 6-10 view, so it isn't an option for a crew.What If Your Crew Is Smaller or Larger?
Jobber's price changes at each step of its team-size picker (Just me, 2-5, 6-10, 11-15, and 16 or more), so set it to your real headcount, office included, before comparing tiers.
Here is the 2-5 view for comparison, as of October 19, 2026:
| Tier (2-5 people view) | First 12 months | After 12 months | Users included |
|---|
| Connect | $105/mo | $149/mo | 5 |
| Grow | $161/mo | $229/mo | 5 |
| Plus | $280/mo | $399/mo | 5 |
This guide covers the 2-5 and 6-10 views only. If you run 11-15 people, set the picker to that step and write down all six numbers (intro and after-intro for each tier) before you talk to sales.
Also ask how an 11th user is counted if you're on a 6-10 plan, and get the answer in writing.
Which Jobber Tier First Includes QuickBooks Online Sync and Time Tracking?
For a crew, Connect is the first tier that lists both "Sync with QuickBooks Online" and "Track time and expenses." Grow is the first tier that lists "Track time automatically" and job costing.
That split matters for an electrical shop:
- If you need the crew's hours recorded and moved into QuickBooks, Connect is where those features start.
- If you want Jobber's job-costing view inside Jobber itself, that starts at Grow.
- Crew scheduling as a listed feature starts at Plus.
How the 12-Month Intro Price Changes Year Two
Every tier in the 6-10 view jumps after month 12. Budget for year two, not year one.
Example arithmetic, annual prepaid, 6-10 people view, prices as of October 19, 2026. Year one is the intro monthly price × 12. Year two is the after-intro price × 12.| Tier | Year 1 (intro × 12) | Year 2 (after-intro × 12) | Two-year total | Year-two increase |
|---|
| Connect | $161 × 12 = $1,932 | $229 × 12 = $2,748 | $4,680 | +$816 |
| Grow | $210 × 12 = $2,520 | $299 × 12 = $3,588 | $6,108 | +$1,068 |
| Plus | $315 × 12 = $3,780 | $449 × 12 = $5,388 | $9,168 | +$1,608 |
Add-ons sit on top of these. Jobber listed Marketing Suite at $99/mo, AI Receptionist at $29/mo, and Pipeline at $49/mo. Example: Grow plus Pipeline in year two is ($299 + $49) × 12 = $4,176. Run it with the add-ons you would actually use.
Monthly, Committed, or Prepaid: Which Billing Option Fits?
Monthly with no commitment fits while you're still deciding, the monthly 1-year commitment fits once you're sure you'll stay a year, and annual prepaid fits only after the trial shows your crew actually using it. Jobber's FAQ lists three ways to pay; the difference is mostly how hard it is to leave.
| Option | How it bills | If you cancel |
|---|
| Monthly, no commitment | Month to month | Cancel any time; service ends at the end of the billing period |
| Monthly, 1-year commitment | Billed monthly, 12-month minimum | Billing continues to the end of the term |
| Annual prepaid | Billed once a year | Ask Jobber about refunds before you pay |
The dollar figures in this guide are the annual prepaid view. The page didn't give a monthly no-commitment dollar figure on this read, so ask for it. It is the number that tells you what flexibility costs.
For a T&M electrical shop, the commitment question is tied to the work schedule. If most of your T&M hours ride on one GC's project and that job wraps in month 5, a 12-month commitment keeps billing for seven more months. Sign in March, stop using it in July, and you pay through the following February.
When an All-in-One Field Service Platform Fits an Electrical Shop
Jobber is a field-service business platform. It covers scheduling, quotes, invoices, payments, and customer records, not only a time clock. It lists Electrical among the industries it serves.
That shape fits some electrical shops well:
- Service calls and small residential jobs. Panel upgrades, EV-charger installs, service changes, and troubleshooting calls that are quoted, permitted, done, and invoiced inside a week.
- Homeowner customers. People who expect a quote by text before you pull the permit and a way to pay online after inspection.
- Shops without a settled invoicing process. If you price some calls flat-rate and bill troubleshooting as T&M, and both invoices are built in Word or by hand today, one system for quote-to-payment may replace several steps.
When a Separate Time Clock Plus QuickBooks Invoicing Fits
A different electrical shop already invoices from QuickBooks Online and is happy with it. Think commercial T&M subs billing a GC, with pay apps, change orders, and retainage.
For that shop, the gap usually isn't quoting or scheduling. It's the backup behind the labor line. The GC's PM wants to know what 42 hours on the third floor actually bought.
If that's you, price the pieces separately: a time clock that records hours plus a note, and the QuickBooks invoicing you already use. You may not need to move your quotes, customers, and invoices into a new system to fix the one thing that's broken.
The Mechanism Either Way: The Crew's Note Is the Customer's Explanation
Whatever you buy, the invoice is only as good as what the crew wrote down. Compare two records of the same day:
| What the record says | What the customer can do with it |
|---|
| 8.77 hrs | Asks what it was for. Nobody remembers exactly. The office knocks off an hour to keep the peace. |
| Thu 7:02a–3:48p: pulled and terminated circuits 12–18, second-floor east wing | Can match the line to circuits 12–18 on the second-floor east wing panel schedule or on a walk-through, so the question has an answer before anyone calls. |
Clean hours from the crew and invoices customers don't fight are the same job. The note does both.
The Real Obstacle: Getting the Crew to Write Anything
No software price fixes a blank note field. A crew roughing in a floor sets boxes and pulls home runs for days in a row, so the note has to be fast to write and easy to repeat.
What works, with or without any app:
- Ask one question at clock-out: "What did you work on?" One line. Not a form.
- Give them the pattern: what + where + how much. "Set 14 boxes, 2nd floor corridor." "Pulled feeders panel LP-3 to RP-2."
- Let them reuse yesterday's note and edit it. During rough-in, yesterday's "Set 14 boxes, 2nd floor corridor" usually needs only the count and location changed.
- Tell them why. The note protects their work. It's what stops a customer from cutting hours they actually put in.
- Read the notes weekly and thank the person whose note settled a question.
Jobber Trial Checklist for an Electrical Contractor
Jobber's free trial is 14 days, with full access to Grow plan features and no credit card required. Note that the trial runs on Grow, so check which features you'd lose on Connect.
Use the trial on a real job, with real crew, not a demo. Work through this list:
Pricing and terms- Set the picker to your real headcount. Write down intro and after-intro prices for every tier.
- Ask how an 11th user is counted on a 6-10 plan, in writing.
- Ask for the monthly no-commitment price for your tier.
- Ask which billing option the struck-through list prices apply to.
- Confirm the intro price end date and what happens if you switch tiers mid-term.
- Have two crew members clock a full day on their own phones. Time how long clock-out takes.
- Check whether a time entry can carry a written note about the work, and where that note shows up later.
- Check whether that note can appear on, or attach to, the customer's invoice or backup.
- Clock one worker on base-contract work in the morning and a GC-authorized extra (change order or T&M ticket) in the afternoon. Confirm they come out as separate lines you can bill separately.
- Write a note that names a panel, circuit range, and floor (for example, "terminated circuits 12–18, LP-2E, 2nd fl east"). Confirm it shows up in full, not cut off, wherever the GC's PM would see it.
- If you're on Connect, confirm what "Track time and expenses" does without Grow's "Track time automatically."
- Connect your real QuickBooks Online company (or a copy) and sync one week.
- Look at what arrives in QuickBooks: hours, employee, customer, service item, notes. Write down what's missing.
- Confirm the hours land against the right customer and job, so a GC's T&M backup and your QuickBooks invoice show the same total.
- Check whether anything in QuickBooks gets duplicated or overwritten.
- Build one real invoice from the trial week.
- Hand it to someone who wasn't on the job. Can they tell what each labor line paid for?
- If not, find out whether the fix is in the software or in what the crew wrote.
Other Options to Price Alongside Jobber
If you're comparing, price at least one time-clock-only option (QuickBooks Time, ClockShark, or similar) against an all-in-one platform. Write down each one's per-user price at your headcount and whether a time entry can carry a written note that reaches the invoice.
One more option: FieldTimesheet is a time clock only, with no scheduling, quoting, or invoicing. It runs $99/mo for up to 10 workers (+$8 per worker after that), and an admin pushes finished hours one way into QuickBooks Online by hand (pricing).
Whatever you price, run the same customer test on each one.
Quick Decision Guide
| Your shop looks like | Price first | Why |
|---|
| Residential and service work (panel upgrades, EV chargers, troubleshooting calls), no settled invoicing process | Jobber Connect or Grow | Quote, schedule, invoice, and payment in one place |
| Need Jobber's job-costing view | Jobber Grow or above | Job costing is listed starting at Grow |
| Need crew scheduling as a listed feature | Jobber Plus | Crew scheduling is listed at Plus |
| Commercial T&M sub, already invoicing GCs from QuickBooks Online | A standalone time clock + your existing QuickBooks | The gap is labor backup, not quoting or scheduling |
| Any of the above | A one-line note at clock-out | It's free, and it gives every labor line a what and where a customer can check against the work |
FAQ
How much does Jobber cost for an electrical contractor with 6-10 employees?
As of October 19, 2026, on annual prepaid billing in the 6-10 people view, Jobber listed Connect at $161/mo, Grow at $210/mo, and Plus at $315/mo for the first 12 months, then $229, $299, and $449 per month. A promotion was running, so recheck the pricing page.
Which Jobber plan includes QuickBooks Online sync?
For a crew, Connect is the first tier that lists "Sync with QuickBooks Online." It also lists "Track time and expenses." Grow and Plus include it as well.
Does Jobber's price go up after the first year?
Yes. In the 6-10 view, every tier showed an intro price for 12 months and a higher price after that. Example: Connect at $161 × 12 = $1,932 in year one and $229 × 12 = $2,748 in year two.
Does Jobber have a free trial?
Yes. Jobber's FAQ lists a 14-day free trial with full access to Grow plan features and no credit card required.
Can I cancel Jobber any time?
Only on the monthly no-commitment option, where service ends at the end of the billing period. On the monthly 1-year commitment, billing continues to the end of the 12-month term if you cancel.
Is Jobber a good fit for commercial electrical subcontractors?
It depends on what's broken. Jobber is built around quoting, scheduling, invoicing, and payments. A commercial T&M sub that already invoices GCs from QuickBooks may only need better labor backup: hours plus a clear note about the work.
What should the crew write so a customer doesn't dispute the invoice?
What + where + how much, in one line. For example: "Pulled and terminated circuits 12–18, second-floor east wing." A note like that ties the hours to circuits and a location the customer can check.
