JobNimbus’s three-layer pricing model charges roofing teams $550/mo base + $20–$75 per user + $49–$249/mo for texting. QuoteIQ Elite gives you every feature—satellite roof measurement, AI estimating, photo documentation, route optimization, CRM pipelines—at a flat $249.99/mo with no per-user fees.
JobNimbus built a solid CRM for roofing sales pipelines. Their workflow boards, SumoQuote integration, and material ordering from Beacon PRO+ and SRS are genuinely useful for residential roofers running storm restoration work. But the three-layer pricing model—base fee plus per-user fees plus texting subscriptions—means a 7-person roofing crew pays $1,182+/mo before adding EagleView measurement reports. QuoteIQ delivers satellite roof measurement, AI photo-based estimating, automated review collection, route optimization, inventory tracking, CRM pipelines, and a dedicated business phone—all at a flat $249.99/mo for up to 7 users.

JobNimbus does not publish pricing on their website—you have to request a quote through a sales form. Based on verified user reports and competitor research (March 2026), here is what a 7-person roofing operation actually pays on the Established plan to match what QuoteIQ Elite includes natively.

Every row shows what roofing contractors actually need. Where JobNimbus requires a paid integration, we name it and price it. Where a feature is genuinely unavailable at any price, we mark it clearly.

Honest note: JobNimbus has genuine advantages in direct material ordering from Beacon PRO+, SRS, and ABC Supply—critical for storm restoration workflows. Their Sunlight Financial integration for homeowner financing is also valuable for high-ticket roofing jobs. QuoteIQ does not replicate these integrations. Every other feature listed above is either unavailable on JobNimbus or requires paid third-party tools.
The material ordering and financing integrations are real product advantages for storm restoration roofers. Brand recognition and community size are marketing wins. Everything else—measurement, AI, photo documentation, route optimization, texting, review automation, self-scheduling—QuoteIQ delivers natively at a fraction of the cost.
Watch how QuoteIQ works for roofing contractors—from satellite measurement to payment collection—in under 3 minutes.
Most roofing contractors complete the switch in under 48 hours. Here is the exact process.
Pick Elite or any plan. 14 days free on every tier. A credit or debit card is required to start. You will not be charged until day 15.
Export your customer list from JobNimbus as a CSV. Mass-import contacts into QuoteIQ in one step. Customer names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses transfer directly.
Set up your services: full roof replacements, repairs, inspections, gutter installations, ridge vent replacements, flashing repairs, skylight installations, and emergency tarp services. Add your materials, markups, and per-square pricing.
Open a customer record, launch MapMeasure Pro, measure the roof area from satellite imagery, and generate an estimate in under 60 seconds. No EagleView report fees. No site visit required for initial scoping.
Once your team is comfortable, cancel your JobNimbus subscription, Engage texting add-on, CompanyCam subscription, and any other third-party tools QuoteIQ replaces. That is $932+ back in your pocket every month.
These are verified reviews from Capterra and GetApp. We did not cherry-pick or fabricate these quotes—they represent common themes in JobNimbus user feedback.
“At the end of the day, JobNimbus just didn’t have enough features to justify the continued expense.”
— Verified Reviewer · GetApp · Construction Industry
“I have to use JobNimbus for residential and another product for commercial as Nimbus doesn’t do any job costing or vendor portals, or customer portals.”
— Jennifer R., CEO · Capterra · Verified Review
“The integrations are often finicky at best. Nothing flows easily if you don’t have the team to properly onboard the software and manually enter information into each subset.”

Read Justin’s insights →The material ordering and financing integrations are real product advantages for storm restoration-heavy operations. JobNimbus’s brand recognition in the roofing space and their 6,000+ contractor user base are marketing wins, not product wins. For every roofing contractor who does not depend on in-app supply house ordering or point-of-sale financing, QuoteIQ delivers significantly more capability at a fraction of the cost.
JobNimbus uses a three-layer pricing model: a base CRM fee ($225/mo for Growing, $550/mo for Established), plus per-user fees ($20–$75/user/mo depending on role), plus Engage texting ($49–$249/mo). A 7-person roofing team on the Established plan with standard texting pays approximately $1,049/mo before adding CompanyCam or EagleView. QuoteIQ Elite at $249.99/mo includes everything—no per-user fees, no texting add-ons, no third-party integrations required.
Yes. MapMeasure Pro is QuoteIQ’s built-in satellite measurement tool, available on Beginner ($74.99/mo) and above. It measures roof segments, calculates square footage, and exports measurements directly to an estimate—all from satellite imagery. Unlike EagleView, there are no per-report charges. You can measure unlimited roofs per month at no additional cost. MapMeasure Pro also uses Google’s Solar API to detect and measure roof segments with color-coded pitch visualization.
Yes. QuoteIQ Cam replaces CompanyCam entirely. It includes 4K photo and video uploads, before/after comparison editing, custom inspection forms, and unlimited cloud storage—all built into the CRM. Every photo links directly to the customer’s job record. No separate subscription, no per-user charges. CompanyCam costs $19–$29/user/mo on top of JobNimbus. A 7-person crew saves $133–$203/mo by using QuoteIQ Cam instead.
No. As of March 2026, JobNimbus has no AI tools at any price on any plan. QuoteIQ includes AI Autopilot (35-tool natural language CRM control), AI Estimator (photo-based roof pricing), Virtual Call Team (24/7 AI call answering and outbound calling), and Before/After AI Image Generator on every plan starting at $29.99/mo.
JobNimbus workflow boards are well-designed for tracking roofing jobs through production stages. QuoteIQ’s Pipelines & Deals CRM provides a visual Kanban-style pipeline with an added advantage: probability-weighted revenue forecasting. You can see not just where each job sits, but how much potential revenue is at each stage of your funnel—which helps roofing contractors forecast cash flow more accurately.
No. QuoteIQ does not integrate with Beacon PRO+, SRS Distribution, or ABC Supply for in-app material ordering. This is a genuine advantage that JobNimbus has for storm restoration roofing workflows. If your team orders materials directly from the CRM multiple times per week, this is worth considering. However, most roofing contractors order materials through existing supply house relationships regardless of CRM software.
JobNimbus has no native route optimization and no verified third-party integration for route planning. Roofing crews running multiple inspections or repairs per day have no way to optimize their driving routes inside JobNimbus. QuoteIQ Elite includes Route Optimization and Route Density Zones, which auto-sequence daily jobs to minimize drive time and help you see geographic clusters where you can book more work efficiently.
Yes. QuoteIQ offers a 14-day free trial on every plan, including Elite and Max. The trial gives you full access to all features on whichever plan you select. You can test MapMeasure Pro, QuoteIQ Cam, AI Autopilot, and every other feature before committing.
QuoteIQ has no integration limits on any plan because most features that require third-party integrations on other platforms are built natively into QuoteIQ. JobNimbus limits the Growing plan to 5 integrations—and given that roofing contractors typically need EagleView, CompanyCam, QuickBooks, a payment processor, and texting, you hit that 5-integration cap immediately, forcing an upgrade to the $550/mo Established plan.
Yes. InstaSchedule lets homeowners book roof inspections 24/7 directly against your live calendar. They see available time slots, pick a date, and receive automatic confirmation—no phone call needed. JobNimbus has no native or third-party self-scheduling capability. InstaSchedule is included on QuoteIQ Elite and above.
QuoteIQ is a field service CRM built for all home service industries, including roofing. Co-founder Mike Vidan II has 20+ years of experience running home service businesses, including exterior and roofing operations. The platform’s satellite roof measurement (MapMeasure Pro with Solar API), photo documentation (QuoteIQ Cam), and route optimization are specifically designed for the workflows roofing contractors use every day. While JobNimbus positions itself as roofing-only, QuoteIQ’s all-in-one approach means you get roofing-grade tools plus AI capabilities and pricing transparency that roofing-specific platforms do not offer.
A solo roofer on JobNimbus Growing pays $225/mo base + ~$50/user + $49–$149/mo texting = $324–$424/mo before EagleView or CompanyCam. A solo roofer on QuoteIQ Beginner pays $74.99/mo and gets MapMeasure Pro, QuoteIQ Cam, Review Multiplier, and AI tools included. That is a savings of $249–$349/mo, or $2,988–$4,188/year.
QuoteIQ Elite: satellite roof measurement, AI estimating, photo documentation, route optimization, CRM pipelines, automated reviews, customer self-scheduling, inventory tracking, and a dedicated business phone—$249.99/mo flat. No per-user fees. No texting subscriptions. No integration limits.
