A Jobber alternative for Quebec? ORYX Console or Jobber for a service business in Quebec
In short
Jobber is Canadian management software for service businesses: prices in US dollars on its website and in Canadian dollars on the Canadian App Store, a 14-day trial, iOS and Android apps, and a help center that documents English and Spanish. A French interface is not published by the vendor.
ORYX Console is management software built in Quebec, in French, in Canadian dollars, with GST and QST calculated on every quote and every invoice, and an iPhone app for the field team. The table below compares the two, criterion by criterion, with the source of each fact.

Jobber in short
Jobber describes itself as field service management software for home and commercial service businesses, from solo operators to multi-crew operations.[1] It is a Canadian private company founded in 2011; it lists offices in Boston, Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton and Kitchener.[1] On its website, its prices are published in US dollars, in four plans: Core, Connect, Grow and Plus.[2] Its Canadian App Store listing also lists monthly subscriptions bought in the app, in Canadian dollars.[7] The trial lasts 14 days, with the Grow plan's features, and no credit card.[2] Its help center documents English and Spanish. A French interface is not published by the vendor.[3][7]
Jobber and ORYX Console, criterion by criterion
Each vendor in its own currency and pricing unit, with no conversion. The bracketed references lead to the source.
| Criterion | Jobber | ORYX Console |
|---|---|---|
| Documented languages | English. Spanish documented on the web for every team member, and in the mobile app for non-admin users. French interface: not published by the vendor. Crew voice notes: Jobber says they can be dictated “in any language”, with instant translation (Jobber AI Voice for Field Workers, Plus plan). Canadian App Store listing: declared language, English.[2][3][7] | French: the console, the app and the emails, and support too. Canadian App Store listing: English and French.[8] |
| Currency | On its website: US dollars (“All prices in USD”), sales tax extra. Canadian App Store listing: monthly in-app subscriptions, in Canadian dollars.[2][7] | Canadian dollars, taxes extra.[9] |
| Entry price and unit | Core, 1 user: US$49 a month with no commitment, or US$29 a month billed yearly. Additional users: US$29 a month each. Other plans: Connect, Grow and Plus.[2] | $127 a month, or $1,164 a year, for up to 5 employees: one price per plan, not per user. Every plan has the same features.[9][11] |
| Free trial | 14 days, with the Grow plan's features, no credit card.[2] | 30 days, no credit card at sign-up: it is requested toward the end of the trial, and nothing is charged before day 30.[9] |
| GST and QST | Tax rates and tax groups created by the user: a group adds up its rates and shows them separately for the client, and the tax ID name and number (the article gives “GST” as an example) print on invoices. The help article names neither QST nor Quebec.[5] | GST at 5% and QST at 9.975%, calculated for you. |
| Employee app and platforms | iOS and Android apps, for owners, managers and crews.[1] | iPhone app for the field team, on the App Store; the office console opens in your browser.[8] |
| Accounting | QuickBooks Online sync from the Connect plan up (not in the Core plan's list). With the new integration, the one a first-time connection gets: clients, products, invoices, payments and timesheets go one way, from Jobber to QuickBooks, after a one-time import of clients and products from QuickBooks. Xero is also named, with no plan specified.[2][4] | ORYX isn't accounting software: your books stay in your own software.[12]
|
| Data and Law 25 (what the vendor publishes) | Its privacy policy says information may be processed outside the jurisdiction where it was collected, including in Canada (outside Quebec, for individuals in Quebec) and in the United States, and gives an Edmonton address to reach its privacy officer.[6] | A privacy officer named in the privacy policy; subprocessors published with their country, several outside Quebec; an incident register; 30 days after the contract ends to export your data.[9][10] |

Frequently asked questions
A French interface is not published by the vendor. Jobber's help center documents Spanish on the web for every team member, and in the mobile app for non-admin users (article updated September 24, 2026). Its Canadian App Store listing declares English. Its pricing page says crews can dictate notes “in any language”, with instant translation (Jobber AI Voice for Field Workers, Plus plan only), but we didn't find a French interface there, in its llms.txt or in that article. ORYX Console is in French: the console, the app and the emails, and support too.
Jobber publishes its prices in US dollars on its website, sales tax extra. The Core plan, for 1 user, is US$49 a month with no commitment, or US$29 a month billed yearly; each additional user costs US$29 a month. The Connect, Grow and Plus plans cost more. Its Canadian App Store listing also lists monthly subscriptions bought in the app, in Canadian dollars: “Core Monthly” is $89.99 a month there. ORYX Console is in Canadian dollars: $127 a month for up to 5 employees, taxes extra. Prices gathered on October 20, 2026: check them with each vendor.
Yes, once you create the two rates yourself (5% and 9.975%) and combine them into a tax group: Jobber adds up the rates in a group and shows them separately for the client, and the tax ID name and number (the article gives “GST” as an example) print on invoices (help article “Tax Settings”, updated June 5, 2026). That article names neither QST nor Quebec. In ORYX Console, GST at 5% and QST at 9.975% are calculated for you on every quote and every invoice, and your RBQ, GST and QST numbers print on your documents.
Both publish it. At Jobber, the QuickBooks Online sync appears from the Connect plan up. With its new integration, the one a first-time connection gets, clients, products, invoices, payments and timesheets go one way, from Jobber to QuickBooks, after a one-time import of clients and products from QuickBooks. ORYX Console has a push to QuickBooks Online, and Acomba and Avantage exports. ORYX isn't accounting software: your books stay in your own software.
Your client list comes into ORYX Console from an Acomba, Sage 50 or Excel file. You start with new jobs, the old ones finish in your old system, and the 30-minute setup is included during the 30-day trial.
