Pricing transparency
RoofHQ puts its price on the page before a sales call. JobNimbus routes pricing through a sales quote based on your team size and add-ons.
JobNimbus alternative
RoofHQ vs. JobNimbus: see the price, keep the workflow lean.
JobNimbus is a powerful multi-trade CRM at scale. RoofHQ is the focused option for small teams that want published, flat pricing and an estimate-to-deposit workflow without per-seat quotes or a heavyweight system.
The honest measurement distinction
RoofHQ's instant aerial output is a preliminary estimating aid from available Google data, included in the plan. JobNimbus orders detailed reports through integrations like EagleView and HOVER, billed by those providers. A contractor should verify the roof on site before bidding or ordering materials.
At a glance
RoofHQ vs. JobNimbus, point by point
The products overlap in estimating and proposals, but they differ on pricing transparency, how measurements are delivered, and overall scope.
Decision point
RoofHQ
JobNimbus
Published pricing
RoofHQ lets you see the price before talking to anyone. With JobNimbus you request a quote, so compare the published RoofHQ price against the explicit sales quote you receive.
- RoofHQ
Silver is $149/month and Gold is $249/month, published on the pricing page. Both start with a 7-day trial without a credit card.
- JobNimbus
Pricing is not listed publicly. JobNimbus uses a quote model based on the plan, the number of users, and add-ons; its pricing FAQ says no required setup or onboarding fees.
Roof measurements
These outputs are not equivalent. RoofHQ is a fast, flat-price preliminary takeoff; JobNimbus hands off to third-party measurement providers with their own pricing and turnaround.
- RoofHQ
Instant preliminary aerial takeoffs where supported by available Google data: 100 per month on Silver and 500 on Gold. Field verification is still required.
- JobNimbus
Measurement is delivered through integrations with apps like EagleView and HOVER, which you order separately and hook into the job folder.
Estimate to close
Both close jobs online. RoofHQ keeps the three-tier guided close front and center; JobNimbus wraps estimating inside a broader sales and operations system.
- RoofHQ
Branded good-better-best proposals, optional add-ons, e-signatures, margin protection, and deposit checkout in one focused flow.
- JobNimbus
Smart estimating plus one-click estimate-to-invoice conversion, sales pipelines, proposals, and payment options built around per-role access.
Users and seats
If your crew grows, RoofHQ's flat price does not rise with headcount, while a JobNimbus quote grows with the number of users and role licenses.
- RoofHQ
Plans are not billed per seat; the flat plan price covers the workflow without per-user multipliers.
- JobNimbus
Access is role-based (e.g. Admin, Sales, Field) with the number of users and seats contributing to the quoted price.
Product focus
Choose based on scope: a lean sales workflow with RoofHQ, or a company-wide operating system with deeper production and reporting with JobNimbus.
- RoofHQ
A focused estimate-to-deposit workflow for solo roofers and small teams.
- JobNimbus
A broader multi-trade CRM covering estimates, jobs, production, profit tracking, and reporting, marketed as the #1 all-in-one platform for roofing contractors.
Integrations
Pick JobNimbus if you depend on a specific integration catalog. Pick RoofHQ if manual cost control and a single sign-and-collect flow are enough.
- RoofHQ
Editable material catalogs and manifests using contractor-maintained costs; Stripe-powered deposits. Direct supplier ordering and QuickBooks are not advertised in RoofHQ's public plans.
- JobNimbus
Native integrations include EagleView and HOVER for measurements, QuickBooks two-way sync, QXO material pricing, and CompanyCam.

Questions contractors ask
JobNimbus alternative FAQ
Is RoofHQ the same type of product as JobNimbus?
Not exactly. Both help contractors estimate, propose, and get paid. JobNimbus is a broader multi-trade CRM with production, profit tracking, integrations, and reporting. RoofHQ is a focused estimate-to-deposit workflow for small teams that want published pricing and fewer moving parts.
Does RoofHQ replace an EagleView or HOVER measurement report?
No. RoofHQ uses available aerial data to create a preliminary takeoff for early-stage pricing and requires contractor field verification. JobNimbus orders detailed reports through EagleView or HOVER, which you pay for per report. Use the output that matches the accuracy and documentation your job requires.
Is RoofHQ cheaper than JobNimbus?
RoofHQ publishes its prices: Silver is $149/month and Gold is $249/month. JobNimbus does not publish list prices and quotes per plan, users, and add-ons, so the practical comparison depends on the quote you receive and the report volume you actually use.
Will I pay setup fees with either product?
RoofHQ starts with a 7-day free trial and no setup fee. JobNimbus's pricing FAQ states there are no required setup or onboarding fees, though paid professional services are available for accelerated or customized rollouts.
