Switching

Moving to Trimsy from Jobber

For Australian pest control, cleaning and home-service businesses that like Jobber's workflow but don't want USD billing, FX costs, or per-tier pricing that jumps sharply as the team grows.

What comes across, and how

You do the import yourself, in this order. Nothing is switched on until you say so.

1

Your client list

Export your clients as a CSV, then upload it. You map the columns yourself — name, phone, email, notes — so a file laid out any way still lands correctly. Nothing is guessed.

2

Your services and prices

Same again: upload the list, map the columns, adjust durations and prices before anything is saved.

3

Your staff

Add the team and their roles. Small enough to do by hand for most businesses, and importable if it is not.

4

Your appointments

Upcoming bookings import too, matched to the clients, services and staff already brought across — which is why those three go first. Past appointments come in as completed history.

  • Nothing is emailed to your clients when a booking imports — no confirmation goes out for an appointment they made weeks ago somewhere else.
  • Imported future bookings DO get the normal reminders. Turn reminders off in your old system on the day you import, or a client gets told twice.
  • A booking that would double-book a staff member is skipped and listed for you, never written. If two systems disagree about a slot, you see it rather than discovering it when both clients arrive.

Be realistic

What does not come across

Worth knowing before you start, rather than after.

  • Past invoices and payment records. They stay in your old system, which you should keep read-only access to for your own records regardless.
  • Photos, files and message history attached to clients in the other platform.
  • Anything your old system will not export. We can only import what you can get out — if their export is thin, that is the ceiling.

A changeover that does not need a closed day

  1. Day 1Import clients, then services, then staff. Set your hours and booking rules. Nothing is live yet — your existing system keeps running exactly as it is.
  2. Day 1Import your upcoming appointments. Anything that clashes is reported rather than written, so you can settle it before it matters.
  3. Day 2Check the imported diary against your old one, and take a test booking end to end: confirmation, reminder, the customer view.
  4. Switch dayTurn reminders off in the old system, then point your booking link at Trimsy. New bookings land here from that moment.
  5. After thatCancel the old subscription once you are satisfied. Export a copy of your records first — you own that data and you should keep it.

Questions

What people ask before they move.

Is Trimsy cheaper than Jobber?

For Australian teams, usually — once you factor in FX and count users. Jobber's tiers are Core US$49, Connect US$139 and Grow US$199 a month on monthly billing (checked September 2026), each for a single user, with additional users charged on top. Trimsy is $24.99 AUD/mo with 1 staff member or $49.99 with 3, and each extra person is a $7 seat rather than a jump to the next tier — a five-person team is $63.99 AUD a month, billed in Australian dollars.

Does Jobber bill in Australian dollars?

No — Jobber bills in USD, so Australian customers carry the exchange-rate cost every month on top of the subscription. Trimsy is priced and billed in AUD.

Can I migrate from Jobber to Trimsy?

Yes. Jobber exports clients, properties and job history as CSV; Trimsy imports the standard fields. We can help map and load your data during a free onboarding call.

Is Jobber better for a large field team?

If you need GPS routing, a mature client hub and hundreds of integrations, Jobber's depth may justify the price. For a lean Australian crew that wants simple AUD pricing and a self-serve booking page, Trimsy is the leaner, cheaper fit.
