2 ServiceM8
$29/moA low-cost, job-volume-priced platform with unlimited users on every paid plan and an iOS-first field experience.
Serves this tradePublishes real pricingStrengths
- Unlimited users on paid plans makes it unusually friendly to teams with several office or part-time users.
- The $29 entry plan is tied with Jobber Core for the lowest verified paid starting price in this catalog, and a Free plan (1 user, 30 new jobs a month) sits below it for a solo operator.
Limitations
- Plan limits are based on new jobs per month, so a busy shop can outgrow a tier without adding staff.
- The full field app is optimized for Apple devices; Android users get the narrower ServiceM8 Lite app.
Plan Price Notes Starter $29/mo Unlimited users; 50 new jobs per month. Growing $79/mo Unlimited users; 150 new jobs per month. Premium $149/mo Unlimited users; 500 new jobs per month. Premium Plus $349/mo Unlimited users; 1,500+ new jobs per month. 14-day free trial.
