This is not an isolated incident. SaaS prices increase an average of 11.4% annually — five times general inflation. Jobber users have seen repeated price hikes, feature paywalls, and forced migrations. The pattern is always the same: get users dependent on the platform, then extract more money. You never own anything. Stop paying, lose access to everything you built inside the tool.
This event is actively impacting users right now. If you are affected, Helix offers a $279 one-time alternative with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

These are not isolated voices. This pattern repeats every time Jobber announces pricing changes.
This price change is part of a broader pattern. Jobber users consistently report:
And Jobber still does not include: Per-user fees add up quickly, Basic plan missing key features, No permit tracking or compliance docs. You would pay additional subscriptions for those — on top of the price increase.
Jobber at $69/month is $828/year. With 11.4% annual inflation, that becomes $2,782 over 3 years and $4,910 over 5 years. Every price increase makes the gap wider. Every new "premium tier" moves features you already had behind a higher paywall.
Helix is $279 once. The price today is the price forever. No annual increases. No feature paywalls. No "we are updating our pricing" emails. You own it.
You do not have to keep paying more every year for tools you do not own. Helix includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full QuickBooks-style accounting for $279 one-time. Export your data from Jobber, import into Helix, and run both in parallel until you are confident. The 30-day money-back guarantee means zero risk.
Every month you stay on Jobber is another month of paying a price that only goes up. The break-even math is simple: at $69/month, Helix pays for itself in 5 months. After that, you keep every dollar they would have charged.
30-day money-back guarantee. No price increases. Ever.
No. Helix is a one-time purchase. The price you pay today is the price. There are no subscriptions, no annual renewals, no "updated pricing" surprises. $279 once. Own it forever.
Yes. Export your data from Jobber as CSV. Import into Helix in about 15 minutes. Run both in parallel for 1-2 weeks. Cancel Jobber when you are ready. Most people switch in a weekend.
30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund, no questions. If Helix does not save you money in year one, you get every penny back.
