OneBookPlus vs Jobber
The Australian-built Jobber alternative

Jobber users in Australia typically run a three-tool stack: Jobber for job management, Xero for accounting, and something like Mailchimp or no marketing tool at all. OneBookPlus replaces all three. When a potential client finds you — through Google, word of mouth, or your shareable online booking page — they land in your CRM as a contact. You create a quote with line items, GST automatically calculated at 10%, and your ABN displayed. The client receives a professional quote via email and can accept it with a single click, triggering a job card that slots into your calendar.

On the job, the OneBookPlus mobile app lets you log time, track materials, and snap receipt photos for expense claims. When the work is done, you convert the job into a GST-compliant invoice and send it from your phone before you've even left the site. Payment reminders go out automatically if the client doesn't pay within your set terms — 7, 14, or 30 days, your choice. Stripe and bank transfer payments are supported, and every payment is recorded against the invoice automatically.

Here's where the Jobber comparison falls apart: accounting. Jobber has none. Every Jobber user in Australia also pays for Xero or MYOB, manually reconciling invoices between two systems. OneBookPlus handles this natively. Every invoice, expense, and payment feeds into your profit and loss statement, your expense categorisation (with AI-powered suggestions that learn over time), and your BAS summary. When your quarterly BAS is due, OneBookPlus generates the GST collected, GST paid, and net obligation figures your accountant needs — or that you can lodge directly through the ATO portal.

After the job, OneBookPlus keeps working. Automated Google review requests go out to clients who've paid, building your online reputation one five-star review at a time. You can segment your client list and send targeted email campaigns — seasonal maintenance reminders, referral incentives, or promotions for quiet periods. Jobber offers none of this. Most Jobber users in Australia are leaving money on the table because they don't have the tools to follow up effectively.
