anyone else struggling with Jobber for scheduling painting crews

been using Jobber for about 6 months now to schedule my painting jobs, but man it's a pain when you've got multiple crews out spraying exteriors or doing trim work. the routing feature keeps glitching if i try to assign a Graco sprayer setup to one team and rollers for the interior guys, ends up double booking half the time. saw a thread on r/paintingbusiness where someone mentioned switching to Housecall Pro, but i dont wanna deal with importing all my client lists again. anyone got tips for making Jobber work better for painting gigs? or is it just me being dumb with the setup. TBH, id kill for something that handles material tracking too, like when we run low on Benjamin Moore Aura.

Jobber's fine for small jobs but sucks for coordinating multiple crews, just go with FieldEdge if you're serious about painting.

What kind of painting jobs are you running that needs all that? Residential interiors?

How do you handle change orders in Jobber? Mine always messes up the schedule when a client adds another room.

screw these software companies, they all charge too much and deliver crap for trades like us painters.

Same here, been fighting Jobber all season.

the painters i know all hate these apps, just use google calendar like the old days.

Yup, Jobber let me down on a deadline last week, client was pissed.

I feel your pain, switching apps every year is exhausting.

Totally get it, the learning curve is brutal for us hands-on guys.

damn these software glitches making my blood boil every time.

yeah, solidarity brother, Jobber's not built for real painting work.

I hear ya, been there with the scheduling headaches.

all these apps are a racket, preying on small painting outfits like ours.

Switch to Housecall Pro, it's way better for tracking paint jobs specifically.

SharkBite for plumbing maybe, but for painting scheduling? Jobber is overrated, fight me.

client called mid-job because app said i was late, even though i was on time. hilarious.

Try integrating it with QuickBooks, fixed half my issues.

every painter i talk to bitches about software, it's universal.

How many guys are on your crew? Might need something custom.

these big software firms don't give a damn about us little painting contractors.

PE is buying up all the good ones, prices jacked and features cut.

Insurance companies are bad, but software screwing schedules is next level.

woke up to a overlapped schedule again, what a joke.

guy in Painters Lounge FB group said the same, total crap-show.

don't trust Jobber for big jobs, had a crew show up to the wrong house once.

LOL, my apprentice thought we were doing trim but it was full exterior.

Just stick to paper schedules, tech always fails us painters.

watched Idaho Painter's video on his setup, uses a simple app that actually works.

Homeowners demanding perfect timing while our software lags, unreal.

PSA: backup your schedules manually, Jobber crashed on me during peak season.
