How we grade them
| 2.2GPAHouzz ProFair | 2.6GPAJobNimbusGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DPro, the plan with the schedule and daily logs, is $199 a month for 1 user plus $50 for each extra, so three of you pay $299 a month on a yearly subscription. That's more than any listed rival with a published price charges three people, and near the top of this category. | CNo prices are published: every plan is quoted by users and add-ons, so there's no figure for a crew of three. Its smallest plan caps users at 3, which fits a crew that size. No published price is a C by our rule. |
| Free plan and trial | CThere's a free plan, but it's a basic one for trying the floor planner, estimates and invoicing. Watch the 30-day trial: the yearly subscription starts when it ends unless you cancel. | CA 14-day free trial with no card needed. No free plan. |
| Features | C3D floor plans and room scans, selections, estimates, takeoffs, bids, change orders, a project schedule and daily logs. Strong next to the builder tools it's listed with, but the listing names the gap: no dispatch or route planning for service calls. | CSales boards, automations, unlimited estimates and e-signatures, roof measurements, supplier ordering, a profit tracker, invoicing, payments and financing. Strong for exterior jobs, but the listing says dispatching and recurring visits aren't its focus. |
| Ease of use | B4.6 from 4,997 App Store ratings. The phone apps cover projects, files and time on site, and you can scan a room with your phone to start a floor plan. | A4.79 from 12,805 App Store ratings, one of the best in this category. The phone app handles jobs, photos and teams out on site. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone, Android and a Chrome extension that adds leads from Gmail, plus QuickBooks Online, Gusto, Google Calendar and Drive, and Zapier. No desktop app. | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with QuickBooks, SumoQuote and Snowflake, plus an API with webhooks. Only three integrations are listed, and there's no desktop app. |
| Best for | remodelers and designers who sell with 3D plans | roofing and exterior contractors with a sales team |
