Where Logged wins
Price
$9.99/mo vs Jobber Core at $39/mo per jobber.com as of 2026-05-23. For a solo trades contractor, that's 75% less for a workflow that fits your actual day.
Time to first invoice
Logged: install, add a job, tap invoice — done in under 90 seconds. Jobber has an onboarding wizard built for teams; for solo use the setup feels heavier than the workflow warrants.
Native apps on both platforms
Logged is native Swift on iOS and Kotlin on Android. The camera integration, offline behavior, and push delivery match platform conventions. Jobber's mobile experience is good but its deepest workflows still prefer a desktop.
Offline-first, no asterisks
Every Logged screen works without network. Jobber has an offline mode but it's more limited.
Predictable, flat pricing
Logged is two tiers: Free (limited) and Pro ($9.99/mo). Jobber has Core, Connect, and Grow tiers, each with feature gates and an upgrade motion that solo contractors often feel but don't need.
Where Jobber wins
Scheduling and dispatch
Calendar view, drag-and-drop job assignment, route optimization. Logged has none of this; it's not on the v1 roadmap.
Multi-crew / team mode
Multiple employees, time tracking, per-tech job assignment. Logged is solo-only by design.
Client hub
Jobber provides a persistent customer portal where clients can view their full service history. Logged sends per-document links.
QuickBooks Online sync
Bidirectional. Logged does not have this.
Integrations
Jobber connects to Google Calendar, Mailchimp, Zapier, and more. Logged is a standalone tool.
