Jobber alternatives for cleaning companies

Jobber is built for many trades. Cleaning companies sometimes want a tool built around how cleaning actually runs: recurring visits, online booking for homeowners, night crews in empty buildings, and clients who want proof the clean happened. This guide sorts the main alternatives by the kind of cleaning business you run. We make TeamProof, so weigh that accordingly, and check every vendor's own site for current features and prices.

First: do you need an alternative, or an add-on?

If Jobber's quoting, invoicing and payments work for you, switching may cost more than it saves. Many owners keep Jobber for billing and add a proof-of-visit tool for the sites where clients ask "did anyone come?". See TeamProof + Jobber for how that works today.

Alternatives by type of cleaning business

Residential maid services (online booking first)

Booking-first maid service tools focus on homeowner booking forms, recurring residential schedules and card-on-file payments. Look here if most of your work is booked online by homeowners.

Janitorial and commercial cleaning

Janitorial-focused tools are built around commercial sites, cleaner communication and site inspections. Look here if you run nightly contracts for offices and buildings. We also have a detailed page: Jobber alternative for commercial cleaning.

General field service platforms

General field service platforms cover quotes, scheduling, invoicing and payments, much like Jobber. They suit owners who want one tool for the whole job lifecycle.

Proof-of-visit apps (TeamProof)

TeamProof doesn't try to replace your billing. It proves each visit happened, including visits done by subcontractors.

Questions to ask before you switch

• Do your clients ask for proof a clean happened?
• Do subcontractors do some of your sites?
• Is the price per user, or flat? Part-time cleaners add up fast on per-user plans.
• Can your cleaners use the app in their own language?
• Do you need quotes, invoices and payments in the same tool?

What TeamProof records on every visit

• Check-in and check-out times, recorded when the cleaner taps Check in and Check out
• GPS at check-in and check-out, checked against the pin you set for the site
• Before and after photos, saved to the visit
• The checklist for that site
• A Missed tag and an email if nobody checks in within one hour of the scheduled start

Clients can open a private client visit report link, no login needed, without seeing worker names, phones or pay.

Honest limits

• No quotes, invoices or payments yet. These are listed as coming soon.
• GPS is checked at check-in and check-out only. TeamProof does not track cleaners during the shift.
• No homeowner online booking form. Residential maid services that rely on online booking may prefer a booking-first tool.

Where TeamProof came from

TeamProof was built and is used every day at Sweepy Maids, a cleaning company in Metro Vancouver. Read the Sweepy Maids case study.
