Electrician Software to Estimate, Dispatch, and Get Paid Faster
Electrical work isn't a flat-rate appliance call. You're juggling $4,000 panel upgrades, multi-day rough-ins, permit inspections, and a service van that has to be three places at once. Most "field service" tools were built for one-and-done jobs and choke the moment a ticket gets complicated. JobField is electrician software built around how your shop actually runs: detailed estimates that win bigger jobs, a board and dispatch map that show whose day is near the emergency call, and on-site invoicing that gets the deposit collected before you leave the driveway.
It's one app for the whole business: scheduling each day of a multi-day install and, on Pro and Platform, estimate follow-up texts that go out on their own and reports that show revenue and per-tech profit as payments come in. We're onboarding founding electrical contractors now. Your number and your customer data stay yours — no lock-in. Start a 14-day free trial — no credit card.

Win bigger jobs with estimates that look like a $5K proposal, not a napkin
A panel swap, a service upgrade, or a whole-home rewire is a real sale, and a hand-written number on a business card loses it. JobField lets you build a line-itemed estimate from your price book, and an owner or dispatcher can do it on a phone at the panel. Send a second or third version at a higher tier (surge protection, EV charger prep, generator interlock) by text or email before you pull out of the driveway. The customer approves the one they want from their phone with a typed signature, and one press in the office moves the approved lines onto the job and its invoice. No re-keying, no version confusion, no 'I never got that quote.'
- Good, better and best as separate estimates the customer chooses between
- Photos of the panel, the violation, or the finished work kept on the job
- Approved estimates move onto the job and its invoice in one press
A dispatch map that shows where every job is
A tripped main, a dead panel, a burning-smell call at 4 PM, those don't wait. JobField shows the day's jobs as pins on one map, ringed in each electrician's color, and the board shows each electrician's day. When an urgent call lands, you see whose jobs are already near Lakewood and who has a gap, and you send it with one drag instead of the daily phone tree. Drive time goes down, more service calls fit in a day, and you can promise the customer a tighter arrival window.
- The day's jobs on one map, in each electrician's color
- See who's already nearby and send the job with one drag
- Confirmation and reminder texts with the arrival window on Pro and Platform
Schedule crews across multi-day installs and permit inspections
Electrical jobs don't fit in an hour slot. A rough-in waits on the GC, the rough inspection waits on the county, and the trim-out can't start until the inspector signs off. On JobField's drag-and-drop board each phase goes on as its own visit, the inspection date gets its own slot, and when a job slips you drag it to a new day or another electrician without a chain of texts. Each electrician sees the jobs assigned to them on their phone, so nobody sits in the truck wondering where to go.
- Drag-and-drop board across all techs and trucks
- Block time for rough-in, inspection, and trim-out phases
- Reassign jobs instantly when a permit or GC pushes the date
Invoice the larger ticket and get paid before you leave the site
The faster gap to close in electrical isn't the job, it's the cash. One press turns the approved estimate into the job's invoice on the spot, the customer can pay a deposit on a phased install and the balance when it's done, and the tech runs the card with Tap to Pay on iPhone, no clunky reader. JobField Pay is built in, so the invoice gets paid on-site and the payout lands in your bank account. Same-day payment on a $3,000 ticket beats net-30 and a stack of statements every time.
- Approved estimates become the job's invoice in one press
- Tap to Pay on iPhone, with a deposit up front and the balance at the end
- JobField Pay built in — cards and Tap to Pay on iPhone
The tech app, business calls, and profit reports
Your electricians live in the field, so the app has to work there. The JobField app for iPhone shows each electrician the day's stops in order, rings business calls when you have phone service, opens directions in Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze, and keeps photos and notes on the job. An electrician on Android runs the same jobs in the phone's browser. Back at the office, reports on Pro and Platform show revenue, profit, and per-tech numbers from the payments as they clear, so you know which crews and which job types actually make money, not at month-end, but right now.
- Business calls ring the app with phone service
- Photos and notes kept on the job, from the phone
- Revenue, profit, and per-tech reports on Pro and Platform, from money that actually cleared
Frequently asked questions.
What is electrician software and what should it do?
Electrician software is one platform to run a service or contracting electrical business: estimating, dispatching, scheduling, invoicing, and payments. The right one handles big-ticket and multi-day jobs, shows the dispatcher where every job is when an emergency comes in, keeps permit and inspection phases on the schedule, and lets you collect payment on-site instead of chasing net-30 invoices.
Can it handle large estimates and multi-phase jobs like panel upgrades and rewires?
Yes. JobField is built for high-ticket electrical work. Build line-itemed estimates from your price book, on a phone on-site too if you're the owner or a dispatcher, and send good, better and best as separate estimates. The customer approves the one they want from their phone, one press moves the approved lines onto the job, and each phase, from rough-in to inspection, goes on the board as its own visit. You can collect a deposit up front and the balance when the work is done.
How does the AI Receptionist work for an electrical shop?
The AI Receptionist answers the calls your team doesn't pick up, nights and weekends included. It asks what an electrician needs to know, such as whether anything is sparking or smells like burning, or whether the breaker holds, offers the caller an open arrival window, and files the request in Bookings with the address and the fault written in. On Pro and Platform the call is also transcribed and summarized. Dispatch stays yours: the map shows where the day's jobs are, and you send it with one drag on the board.
What does it cost, and what stays mine?
Plans start at $49/mo (Starter), with Pro at $149 and Platform at $299; the dispatch map, the Bookings inbox, automatic texts and reports come with Pro and Platform, and calls and texts need the phone service add-on. What's yours stays yours: your business number (keep it by forwarding it to JobField, or ask the team about moving it over) and your customer data. There's no lock-in — leave anytime and your number and data leave with you.
