What is general contractor management software?

General contractor software like Jobber helps project managers send estimates, organize job details, schedule technicians and specialty contractors, and provide a better customer experience—from the office or the job site. 

Plus, Jobber integrates with QuickBooks Online accounting software, to easily track time on the job and manage customer, invoice, and payment information in one place.

Here’s how Jobber helps your general contracting business run smoothly for you and your customers:

  • Create a job and assign it to contractors with only a few clicks
  • Track employee’s time and materials used on jobs with custom job forms
  • Keep customers informed with automated updates, while you stay focused on the work
  • Organize all client and job details in one place—without the paperwork and administrative headaches

Making general contracting run smoothly for your business

As a general contractor, you’re used to staying on top of every job detail. But as jobs scale, so do the hours you spend doing paperwork. Jobber’s contractor software saves businesses 7 hours per week on administrative work like creating bids, organizing crews, and invoicing projects.

Jobber is built for general contracting businesses plus HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors.
