How to Switch from Jobber to GreenSpace

The complete step-by-step migration guide. Export your data, import everything into GreenSpace, and go live — all in the same day. No data loss, no downtime.

Why Lawn Care Companies Are Leaving Jobber

Jobber is a great general-purpose field service tool. But "general-purpose" is the problem. It was designed for HVAC technicians, plumbers, cleaners, electricians, and lawn care companies all at once. That means lawn care-specific features are either missing or shoehorned in.

Here's what lawn care companies tell us after switching:

  • 1. "We were paying $400+/month" — Jobber Grow ($349) plus QuickBooks ($30) plus RingCentral ($30) plus Slack ($40). GreenSpace includes all of that for $99.
  • 2. "No AI, no voice, no dialer" — Three entire product categories that Jobber doesn't offer. GreenSpace has an AI assistant, 24/7 voice AI agents, and a TCPA-compliant power dialer.
  • 3. "Per-user fees killed us" — Every new hire increased the Jobber bill. GreenSpace is unlimited users at a flat rate.
  • 4. "No prepay wallets" — Customers who prepay for the season had no clean tracking. GreenSpace handles prepay wallets natively.

Step-by-Step Migration Guide

1

Export Your Data from Jobber

5 minutes

Log into Jobber and navigate to Settings → Data Export. Jobber lets you export:

  • Clients (customers with contact info, addresses, notes)
  • Jobs and visits (service history)
  • Invoices and payments
  • Quotes

Download all CSVs and save them in a folder. This is your safety net — even after you switch, you'll always have your raw data.

2

Create Your GreenSpace Account

2 minutes

Go to greenspacecrm.com and sign up. No credit card required. You'll start on the free Starter plan, which gives you full access to the import tools. Upgrade to Pro ($99/month) when you're ready to go live.

3

Import Your Customer Data

10 minutes

In GreenSpace, go to Settings → Import and upload your Jobber CSV files. The import tool:

  • Auto-detects Jobber field names and maps them to GreenSpace fields
  • Handles duplicates intelligently (merge or skip)
  • Imports customer notes, phone numbers, emails, and addresses
  • Preserves service history and payment records
4

Set Up Your Services and Pricing

10 minutes

Configure your service catalog in GreenSpace:

  • Create your services (Mowing, Fertilization, Aeration, etc.)
  • Set pricing tiers and lot-size-based pricing
  • Configure recurring schedules (weekly, bi-weekly, seasonal)
  • Assign crews and service areas

If you used price tables in Jobber, GreenSpace supports CSV import of price tables too.

5

Go Live

Same day

You're ready. Start using GreenSpace for:

  • Scheduling and route optimization
  • Customer communication (email, SMS, voice AI)
  • Invoicing and payment collection
  • Sales calls with the power dialer
  • Let Oz (AI) handle routine operations

Pro tip: Run both systems in parallel for 1-2 weeks if you want extra safety. Cancel Jobber when you're fully confident.
