Hunter vs Jobber

The Jobber alternative for Australian pest control operators

Jobber is popular with North American home-service businesses. Hunter is built around Australian pesticide records, licensing and food-safety from day one.

Best for: US and Canadian home-service businesses

The short version

Jobber is one of the most polished home-service platforms around — but it’s built for the North American market. For an Australian pest control business, the compliance model, terminology and support hours never quite line up. Hunter is built here, for here.

Where Jobber falls short

Jobber has no concept of Australian pesticide registers, chemical SDS handling or state technician licensing — you’re bending a US product to fit AS 3660 and 4349.3.

Support runs on North American time zones, and pricing is billed in USD, so your costs move with the exchange rate.

  • Compliance packs mapped to Australian state rules

  • Prices in AUD with local, same-timezone support
