MarginTap vs Jobber — for the solo van, not the dispatch board.

Jobber runs crews: scheduling, dispatch, CRM, routing, team chat — priced per user, in dollars. MarginTap is the opposite end of the market: one trader, quotes and invoices, three languages on one job, offline-first. Flat €9.99/month, no per-seat tax. If you're solo, Jobber is overbuilt for you.

3 reasons MarginTap fits where Jobber doesn't.

Solo-trader pricing, not per-seat pricing

Jobber's lowest tier covers one user; their team plans scale per user in dollars and add up fast. MarginTap is flat €9.99/month or €79/year, one trader, unlimited quotes and invoices — because most CE/Western-European tradesmen are sole traders, not crew bosses. No seat math, no upgrade because you crossed a quote limit.

Cross-border multilingual on one VAT number

Polish plumber, UK base, German rental — quote in PL, deliver in DE, invoice in EN, all on the same job and the same VAT number. Jobber is built for English-speaking North American FSM operators; it doesn't render the same document per recipient language. MarginTap was built for the Polish-diaspora tradesman first.

From the van, in 60 seconds

MarginTap opens, picks the line items from a trade library, signs with a finger, sends the PDF by WhatsApp — done before the toolbox is back in the van. Jobber's strength is the operations layer (scheduling, dispatch, route, CRM); if you don't have a team, that layer is friction, not feature.

MarginTap vs Jobber — your questions

Can I import/export from Jobber?
MarginTap exports CSV of clients, quotes and invoices on every tier; you can pull a client list out of Jobber and into MarginTap manually, or send the CSV to your accountant either way. There is no native Jobber sync — they're built for different shapes of business (crews vs solo), so a deep integration would imply you should run both, which you usually shouldn't.
What does MarginTap do that Jobber doesn't?
Render the same job in PL, DE and EN under one VAT number, for the cross-border tradesman with a Polish customer, a German bill-payer and a UK accountant. Stay flat-priced at €9.99/month no matter how many quotes you send. Stay offline in a cellar boiler room and sync when reception returns. Jobber wasn't designed for any of these — it's a crew tool, not a sole-trader tool.
What does Jobber do that MarginTap doesn't?
A lot, honestly — if you have a team. Scheduling and dispatch, route optimisation, time tracking, team chat, customer hub with self-service booking, recurring contract jobs, a deeper CRM. If you run a 5-van crew with a dispatcher, Jobber is the right call. MarginTap doesn't do any of that and won't pretend to.
How does the pricing compare?
Jobber starts around $49/month USD for a single-user Core tier, with Connect and Grow tiers stepping up materially from there; team seats add on top. MarginTap is €9.99/month or €79/year — flat, one trader, unlimited quotes and invoices. For a solo van, that's an order of magnitude less. For a crew, Jobber earns its price; MarginTap isn't trying to replace it.
Should I switch if I'm already paying for Jobber?
Only if you're solo and using Jobber mostly to write quotes and invoices — in which case you're paying for scheduling and dispatch you don't use. Switch, save the difference. If you actively run the schedule board, the team chat and the customer hub, stay on Jobber; MarginTap doesn't replace those, and it would be a downgrade for you.
Can I run MarginTap alongside Jobber?
Technically yes, but it usually means you're paying twice for the invoicing layer. The clean split is: one tradesman, no crew → MarginTap; team and dispatch board → Jobber. If you're in transition (just hired your first apprentice, not ready for full FSM), keep MarginTap on the quoting side and add a basic scheduler when you actually need it.
