The short version

  • Each has a real cost: FaciliWorks the interface is dated by cloud CMMS standards, which matters most for occasional users such as production supervisors raising a request, who will need training that a modern mobile-first tool would not require.; Jobber core and Connect include a single user, so a two person crew needs the $199 Grow plan or a $29 per month extra seat

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

FaciliWorks

  • The interface is dated by cloud CMMS standards, which matters most for occasional users such as production supervisors raising a request, who will need training that a modern mobile-first tool would not require.
  • A perpetual licence still carries an annual maintenance and support fee, so the one-off purchase framing does not hold; without that fee you lose updates and support while keeping the right to run old code.
  • Integration options are thin, with a limited API and few prebuilt connectors, so linking FaciliWorks to an ERP or a condition monitoring platform usually means custom database-level work.
  • No pricing is published for any edition despite this being a mid-market product, so buyers cannot compare it against published per-user rivals without entering a sales process.
  • CyberMetrics is a small independent vendor, which means responsive support but also a thin partner ecosystem and no realistic second-source implementation help if the relationship goes wrong.

Jobber

  • Core and Connect include a single user, so a two person crew needs the $199 Grow plan or a $29 per month extra seat
  • The advertised entry price of $21 per month requires annual prepayment; paying monthly costs $49
  • Extra seats cost $29 per month on every plan, including the tiers that already bundle 5 or 15 users

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

FaciliWorks: Can I still buy FaciliWorks outright?

Yes. Perpetual on-premise licensing is still offered alongside subscription, which is unusual in CMMS today.

Jobber: How much does Jobber cost?

Jobber publishes four plans. Paying monthly they are Core at $49, Connect at $139, Grow at $199 and Plus at $499 per month. Prepaying annually brings those to $21, $70, $105 and $280 per month.

FaciliWorks: Does a perpetual licence mean no recurring cost?

No. Annual maintenance and support is a separate ongoing fee, and dropping it costs you updates and support.

Jobber: How many users does Jobber include?

Core and Connect include one user, Grow includes five and Plus includes fifteen. Additional seats are $29 per month on any plan.

Source
FaciliWorks: Is there concurrent licensing?

Yes. Concurrent seats let a large pool of occasional users share fewer licences, which is often cheaper than named seats.

Jobber: Does Jobber have a free trial?

Yes. Jobber offers a 14 day free trial with full access to Grow plan features and states that no credit card is required to start it.

Source
FaciliWorks: Is pricing published?

No. All editions are quoted, so you must engage sales to get a comparable number.
