Why Teams Choose FacilityLane
Facility and maintenance teams choose FacilityLane over Jobber for these key reasons:
Purpose-Built CMMS, Not Field Service
Jobber is a field service management tool designed for home service businesses. FacilityLane is a purpose-built CMMS and EAM platform with asset lifecycle management, preventive maintenance, and predictive analytics that Jobber simply wasn't designed to handle.
Complete Asset Management
Jobber doesn't offer asset tracking, maintenance history, or equipment lifecycle management. FacilityLane provides full asset hierarchy management, QR/barcode identification, MTBF/MTTR analytics, and depreciation tracking.
Offline-First Mobile for Technicians
FacilityLane's mobile app is built for facility technicians with full offline support, barcode scanning, photo documentation, and digital signatures—designed for the realities of maintenance work in large facilities.
Preventive Maintenance Engine
While Jobber handles scheduling for customer visits, FacilityLane offers time-based, meter-based, and condition-based preventive maintenance with automatic work order generation and compliance tracking.
IoT & Sensor Integration
FacilityLane connects directly to building systems and IoT sensors via MQTT, Modbus, BACnet, and OPC-UA protocols. Monitor equipment in real-time and automatically generate work orders when thresholds are exceeded.
Enterprise-Ready Security
FacilityLane includes SSO/SAML, granular role-based access control, audit logs, and multi-tenant architecture—enterprise security features that Jobber doesn't offer for facility management operations.
What Our Customers Say
"Jobber worked when we were doing HVAC service calls, but when we moved to facility maintenance, we needed real asset management. FacilityLane is purpose-built for our needs."
"We were trying to force Jobber to do preventive maintenance and asset tracking—it wasn't designed for that. FacilityLane handles everything we need natively."
"The IoT integration in FacilityLane connects directly to our building systems. Jobber couldn't even come close to this level of automation and monitoring."
