Your Jobber subscription has cost you $0.00 since you opened this page.
✗Marketing Suite is extra $79/month on lower tiers
✗Job costing only on Grow plan
✗Expense tracking locked to higher tiers
✗Real cost often $300-600/month for small teams
✗I recently canceled two subscriptions. HouseCall Pro is far superior. This company held me hostage for $8,250 for seven days claiming it was my first
✗Jobber is an overengineered platform that still lacks basic functionality. Confirmation emails cannot include a clear list of services being provided.
✗Their pricing could use some help. Features locked to higher tier should be included as default.
Pest Control Operators are leaving Jobber every week.
You're not the only one who's had enough.
Why This Matters for Pest Control Operators
You have 10 stops today — eight recurring quarterly treatments and two emergency callbacks for roaches. State requires you to log every chemical application with amounts and EPA numbers. You're doing this on paper forms in the truck and transferring to a spreadsheet at night. One customer wants to upgrade to monthly service. Another is 60 days past due. PestPac wants $150/month and it's built for companies with 10 trucks, not one guy with a sprayer.
Pest Control Operators face unique challenges: Tracking chemical application records for state compliance. Managing recurring quarterly and monthly treatment schedules. PestPac is expensive and built for large operations. Customers calling with pest emergencies between scheduled treatments. On top of all that, Jobber charges $69/month ($828/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median pest control operator earns $38,000/year. Software at $828/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Backpack sprayer and power sprayer is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

A day in the life of a pest control operator
You have 10 stops today — eight recurring quarterly treatments and two emergency callbacks for roaches. State requires you to log every chemical application with amounts and EPA numbers. You're doing this on paper forms in the truck and transferring to a spreadsheet at night. One customer wants to upgrade to monthly service. Another is 60 days past due.

Why pest control operators leave the big platforms
pestpac: $150+/month designed for enterprise pest control. Solo operators get the same bloated, expensive software.
jobber: Generic service software. No chemical tracking, no EPA compliance logging, no recurring treatment scheduling built-in.
housecall-pro: No pest-specific features. I need to track what I sprayed, where, and when — for the state inspector, not marketing.
Is Nexa really a Jobber replacement for pest control operators?
For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Nexa includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. Jobber may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.
$279 seems like a lot.
It's $7.75/month over 3 years. Jobber is $69/month — that's $2,778 over 3 years. Which is more? And if you'd rather split it, Nexa is also available as 3 payments of $99.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Nexa is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.
What if I don't like it?
30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund. If Nexa doesn't save you $500 in year one, you get every penny back.
Can I import my Jobber data?
Export your data from Jobber as CSV, import into Nexa in about 5 minutes.
