Why Well Drillers Leave Jobber

✗Per-user pricing scales expensively ($29/user/month)
✗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.
Well Drillers are leaving Jobber every week.

You're not the only one who's had enough.

Why This Matters for Well Drillers

You're drilling a residential well — per-foot pricing at $15/foot with a $3,000 minimum. At 180 feet you haven't hit adequate water flow. Customer is anxious. Your rig maintenance is $500/month average. Casing and screen for this well is $800 in materials. You have 3 more wells scheduled this month and 2 pump replacement service calls. Equipment depreciation on your $150K rig is your biggest hidden cost.

Well Drillers face unique challenges: Per-foot pricing with unknown total depth. Equipment maintenance on rigs worth $100K+. Permit requirements and lead times. Customer expectations when drilling hits rock or poor water. On top of all that, Jobber charges $69/month ($828/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median well driller earns $55,000/year. Software at $828/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Drilling rig is yours. You bought it once. Helix 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.

FAQ

Is Helix really a Jobber replacement for well drillers?

For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Helix 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, Helix is also available as 3 payments of $99.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. Helix 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 Helix 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 Helix in about 5 minutes.

"Jobber raised prices again and I was done. Found Helix — $279 once. I own it. No more 'we're updating our pricing' emails. Best business decision this year."
