TL;DR
JobNimbus publishes the shape of all four plans and none of the prices. Essentials covers up to 3 users, Pro up to 10, Premium up to 19, then Enterprise at 20 and above, with every button reading "Request pricing". That is more useful than it sounds: the caps are specific enough that you can work out your tier before the call, so the only open variable is the number. The gate that actually moves people up is active automations, capped at 10, 30 and 100, rather than the user count. Third parties report a base around $225 to $550 a month plus $25 to $75 per user and a texting add-on from $49, but those figures use plan names JobNimbus no longer displays. Price the automation cap, and get the 20th-user cliff in writing.
Same disclosure as the rest of our software pricing posts: Skill Mammoth builds websites and runs SEO for the trades. We do not sell roofing CRMs and we have no affiliate arrangement with JobNimbus. Plan structure below is read straight off their live pricing page this week. Dollar figures come from third-party compilations, clearly marked, because JobNimbus does not publish any.
The four plans, as published
| Plan | Users | Project boards | Active automations | Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | Up to 3 | 3 max | 10 max | Standard |
| Pro | Up to 10 | 5 max | 30 max | Standard |
| Premium | Up to 19 | Unlimited | 100 max | Premium plus SLAs |
| Enterprise | 20+ | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited locations and integrations |
| Verdict | Contacts, estimates, documents, eSign, reports, invoices, and QuickBooks are unlimited on every tier. The caps that differ are users, boards, and automations. | |||
The automation cap is the real tier gate
Read the plan cards by user count and you will size yourself wrong. A six-person roofing company looks at Pro because it covers up to 10 users, which is correct arithmetic and the wrong question.
The limit that bites is active automations: 10 on Essentials, 30 on Pro, 100 on Premium. An automation is any triggered workflow, and a roofing company that runs its pipeline properly burns through them fast. Status-change notifications to the homeowner, a task for the production manager when a job hits "sold", supplier order triggers, review requests after final inspection, and a follow-up sequence for unsold estimates will each take one or several. Thirty sounds generous until you map the lifecycle of a single insurance job.
The same applies to project boards: 3 on Essentials, 5 on Pro, unlimited on Premium. If you run separate pipelines for retail, insurance, commercial and service work, five is a ceiling you meet in the first month.
The 20th user cliff
Premium stops at 19 users. The 20th hire moves you to Enterprise, which is a "contact sales" conversation rather than a published step. A specific ceiling like that is usually a real billing boundary, so if you are at 16 or 17 people and hiring, ask what happens at 20 before you sign anything. Get the Enterprise figure quoted at the same time as the Premium one.
What it reportedly costs
JobNimbus publishes nothing, so this section is third-party compilation and should be treated as a range to test rather than a rate card. Reported figures put the base subscription between $225 and $550 a month, with per-user rates of $25 to $75 depending on role and billing period. One operator running solo reports $349 a month. A five-person roofing team is reported in the $475 to $625 range before messaging costs.
Those reports use plan names, Growing and Established, that do not appear anywhere on the current pricing page. That mismatch tells you the numbers predate the Essentials, Pro, Premium and Enterprise structure now published. Useful as an order of magnitude. Not useful as a quote.
Engage, the texting and communication layer, is a paid add-on rather than part of the base plan, reported between $49 and $249 a month depending on volume. If two-way texting with homeowners is central to how you sell, price it as part of the subscription rather than a nice-to-have, because that is how the bill will read.

How it compares to the rest of the roofing shelf
JobNimbus sits in the middle of a category where pricing transparency varies wildly. Roofr publishes live tiers at $0, $109, $249, and $349 with unlimited users. RoofLink publishes $400 per user plus a $1,500 setup fee. AccuLynx is quote-only like JobNimbus. We put all four side by side in the roofing CRM guide, and the short version is that the price you can see is worth something on its own when you are comparing four vendors in a week.
What JobNimbus does better than most is the unlimited list: contacts, estimates, documents, eSign, reports, invoices, financing options, supplier integrations, and QuickBooks sync are included at every tier. Plenty of competitors meter those. If your objection to a cheaper tool was a contact cap or a document limit, that objection does not apply here.
Questions to ask on the pricing call
Five, in this order. What is the monthly price at my user count on Pro and on Premium, quoted together so I can see the step. Is that per user or per company, and what does user 11 cost on Pro. What is the annual-billing discount as a dollar figure. What does Engage cost at my message volume. And what is the contract term plus the notice period to cancel.
Ask for the answers in the written proposal. A quote-only vendor is not doing anything wrong by quoting, and the same discipline applies as with any quote-only platform: the number you hear on a call is not a number you can hold anyone to.
Fix the pipeline before you upgrade the plan
Most roofers we meet do not have a CRM problem. They have a volume problem the CRM makes visible.
Frequently asked questions
How much does JobNimbus cost per month?
JobNimbus does not publish pricing. Every plan card links to a "Request pricing" form. Third-party compilations report a base subscription of roughly $225 to $550 a month plus $25 to $75 per user, with one solo operator reporting $349 and a five-person team reported between $475 and $625 before messaging add-ons. Those figures reference older plan names, so verify in a quote.
What are the JobNimbus plans?
Four: Essentials for up to 3 users with 3 project boards and 10 automations, Pro for up to 10 users with 5 boards and 30 automations, Premium for up to 19 users with unlimited boards, 100 automations and premium support with SLAs, and Enterprise for 20 or more users with unlimited locations, automations and integrations.
Does JobNimbus charge per user?
The published plans bundle users in bands rather than pricing them individually, so Essentials covers up to 3 and Pro up to 10. Third-party reports describe per-user charges of $25 to $75 on top of a base, which suggests the quote blends both. Ask directly what the eleventh user costs on Pro.
Does JobNimbus include texting?
Not in the base subscription. Engage, the communication and texting layer, is sold as an add-on and is reported between $49 and $249 a month depending on volume. Budget it as part of the platform if two-way texting is part of your sales process.
Is JobNimbus good for roofing companies?
It is one of the two most widely used roofing CRMs alongside AccuLynx. Unlimited contacts, estimates, documents, eSign and QuickBooks sync at every tier compare well against metered competitors. The trade-off is opacity on price and an automation cap that pushes growing companies up a tier faster than the user count suggests.
