We’ve been putting a lot of time into some significant changes and improvements to Jobber’s Calendar and Scheduling functionality, and we’re really excited today to announce the release of Jobber Calendar 2.0!

This blog post will cover the main changes you need to be aware of if you’re already using Jobber, and showcase just some of the many reasons you should be with us if you’re not already.

Why did we make these changes? Our goal is to continue with our ongoing efforts to make Jobber’s scheduling and organization functionality the best in the industry. In this update we’ve simplified the existing functionality, added new features, and unified all date and time based information under a single comprehensive Calendar section.

Jobber Calendar 2.0 will help pave the way for lots of exciting feature we have planned for the future. We also think this just makes a lot more sense, and makes Jobber easier and faster to use. We hope you think so too!

Whether we like it or not, winter is here in full force. Many local field service businesses are out using Jobber from their mobile devices to manage clearing the many parking lots and roadways in the area and beyond.

We’ve reviewed single stage snow blowers in the past but this time around we’re going to cover the more commercially focused dual stage blowers.

Congratulations to Josh at Interstate Alarm of Missoula, Montana on winning Jobber’s draw for a Google Nexus 7 Tablet and Free 1 Year Subscription to Jobber!

In celebration of officially turning a year old as Jobber, we decided to give one lucky user a free ride for a year, and a fancy new tablet that works great for managing your business using Jobber in the field.

The Google Nexus 7 is an awesome new device, but any tablet (or modern smart phone) works equally well to access Jobber from in the field.

Don’t take our word for it though — Sign up for free and give it a try for yourself!

Interstate Alarm

Interstate Alarm is Montana’s oldest alarm company, established in the early 1970′s by “Spike” McQuiston and his partners, providing high quality alarm, answering, and locksmithing service. Passed down in the family, Interstate Alarm can boast that they still have customers that started with them originally in 1972! That’s a testament to the kind of customer service we try our best to provide here at Jobber.

There’s a great full history of the company on their website, and if you’re in the Missoula or Kalispell areas we highly recommend you get in touch with Interstate if you’re in the market for alarm/security services. We’re really happy to be giving away this Nexus 7 Tablet and Free Jobber Subscription to such a great company! Keep up the good work Interstate!

If you have questions about modern software options for your alarm service company, or any other field service company for that matter, please get in touch — we’re happy to chat and show you how Jobber can help you better manage your business!

Sincerely,
The Jobber Team

Let’s face it — while we all take pride in our work and strive to be the best at what we do, if your business isn’t making money, then it isn’t going to last very long. This is true for every company — we understand this reality here at Jobber just the same way you do with your field service business, whether you’re in landscaping, cleaning services, alarm installation or pest control.

If you’ve got customers and you’re making money that’s great! You’ve got about half the battle figured out. The other half is making sure that you’re keeping tabs on it all. The last thing you want is to miss collecting a customer payment, or embarrass yourself by trying to collect twice because you’ve lost track track of things.

Tracking money and payments in Jobber is easy, and this post aims to show you how it’s done.

This weekend we made a few changes to Jobber’s navigation that we want to tell you about.

You’ll notice that the navigation bar at the top of Jobber is nicer looking and better communicates where you are in the application. We’ve also taken the opportunity to shuffle a few sections of the application around in preparation for some changes and additions we’ll be making in the coming months.

Read on for all the details!
