ServiceTitan

Does the pick change with team size?
This is a scale story: at the small and growing end Jobber's price is tempting and the missing flat-rate book is survivable, but by established size (31-100 techs) Jobber is out of its depth and ServiceTitan's reporting and trade tooling decisively win — this pair is the classic migration point.

How to Decide
Choose Jobber when:
When your HVAC business wants low, predictable cost and can live without a flat-rate book.
Choose ServiceTitan when:
When your HVAC business sells from a flat-rate book, tracks inventory, and is scaling past ~20 technicians.
Critical question to ask yourself:
“Will you cross ~20 techs within 18 months? That is roughly where ServiceTitan's per-tech cost pays back.”
