Jobber is designed primarily for North American field service teams, focusing on scheduling, quoting, and invoicing. While it’s easy to use, it lacks native tools for inventory management, workflow customization, and true multi-location control. Managing more than one location requires separate accounts with disconnected data, making it harder to scale.
RO App gives you more value for money if you need a comprehensive solution for managing services, inventory, and teams across multiple locations. RO App offers a more regionally focused solution for businesses operating within the EU or the Middle East.

Boost your business operations with customisable workflows that match how you work — whether handling in-shop repairs, dispatching field techs, or managing both under one roof. You can create job statuses, automate routine tasks, assign technicians, and track every step from intake to delivery.
With built-in tools for job scheduling, approvals, messaging, and technician time tracking (even across multiple locations), service work order software helps your team stay organised, efficient, and accountable — no matter how complex your service process is.
Gain real-time visibility into every part, product, and tool — whether at your main shop, field team van, or a second location. You can easily track stock levels, movement, and usage across locations, link parts to specific jobs, set reorder thresholds, and manage serialised items.
With full stock history and versatile units of measurements, the built-in inventory management system helps you reduce losses, improve turnaround times, and ensure your team always has the right parts at the right time.
“Each caulker can manage their own inventory, as items can be assigned to work orders or transferred to other employees. This feature of RO App has significantly enhanced our business management processes.”
Keep your field crew connected, efficient, and accountable — wherever the job takes them. Your team can clock in and out, view and update job statuses in real time, capture client signatures, add photos, manage parts used on-site, and issue invoices — all from their smartphones.

Managing multiple locations is simple and efficient with multi-shop management software. Unlike other platforms that require separate accounts for each site, RO App lets you oversee all your shops from a single dashboard with fully connected data.

This centralised control helps growing businesses maintain consistency, improve communication, and scale operations effortlessly.

Jobber vs. RO App: FAQs
Jobber and RO App differ in both pricing structure and value for growing teams.
Jobber charges per user on all plans, which can quickly increase costs as your team grows. Many features like automated client communication and route optimisation are only available on higher-tier plans, making it more expensive for businesses that need advanced functionality or multiple users. Additionally, if you operate multiple locations, you’ll need separate accounts for each, with no shared data, which can quickly increase your total cost and administrative overhead.
RO App, in contrast, offers tiered subscription plans that include 2-3 employee accounts by default, with additional users available for a small extra fee. This makes it cost-effective for small to mid-sized teams, and still scalable for larger businesses. The plans are designed around feature access and business needs — not just headcount — and include powerful tools for inventory and job workflows at every level. You also get built-in support for multi-location management without needing separate accounts, which keeps costs and operations streamlined.
In summary, RO App offers more operational depth per plan, while Jobber may suit smaller, field-only teams that don’t require complex workflows or multi-location management.
RO App is designed with EMEA-region businesses in mind, offering:
Unlike Jobber, which is heavily North America-focused, RO App adapts to the diverse needs of EMEA businesses.
RO App is designed for businesses with multiple branches — two shops or a full network. You get:
In contrast, Jobber requires separate accounts per location, which means no data syncing, separate billing, and limited oversight across your business.
