Roofing Software: What It Costs and Who Hides the Price
Three of the biggest roofing platforms publish no pricing at all. Here is what everyone actually charges, from vendor pricing pages, and why measurement tools are the only honest part of the market.

AccuLynx, JobNimbus and ServiceTitan publish no pricing at all. Jobber, Roofr and Housecall Pro publish real numbers you can read in thirty seconds. That split is the most useful thing to know before you start shopping, because the three that hide pricing are also the three most oriented to roofing and enterprise work.
Every figure below comes from the vendor own pricing page, checked in July 2026. Where a vendor does not publish a price, this says so rather than repeating a number from a comparison site. Software pricing moves, so treat these as a starting point and confirm before you sign.
The platforms that publish pricing
Jobber
The most transparent pricing in the category. Core runs 49 dollars a month for one user, Connect 139, Grow 199, and Plus 499, with lower annual-prepaid rates and additional users at 29 dollars a month across all tiers.
Two details worth catching: the annual prepaid rate is an introductory rate for twelve months that then steps up, and annual prepaid is explicitly non-refundable. Jobber is a general home-services tool rather than a roofing one, so there is no measurement and no supplementing workflow.
Roofr
The outlier on seat pricing, and it matters more than anything else on their page: Roofr does not charge per seat. Unlimited users on every tier, including the free one.
The free Starter tier gets you measurement reports at 19 dollars each with no subscription. Paid tiers move up through Measure Plus, Essentials and Scale, with QuickBooks, job costing and crew management arriving at the top tier. There are no setup or onboarding fees.
One caveat: their pricing page labels monthly and annual figures inconsistently, so confirm which direction the discount runs before you commit.
Basic 79 dollars a month, Essentials 189, MAX 329, with lower annual rates and extra users at 35 dollars a month on the top tier. Card processing starts at 2.59 percent.
Notable in this category: they state plainly that there are no contracts and you can cancel anytime. Like Jobber, it is a generalist tool, weak on roofing-specific measurement and supplementing.
Leap
Partially public. Essential is 79 dollars a month for a single user, Team starts at 298 including the first user with additional users at 99 a month, and SalesPro Premium starts at 750 for six users.
Read the billing terms carefully. Leap bills monthly but on an annual contract, which is lock-in wearing monthly clothing. That 99 dollars per additional user is also the highest per-seat price in this comparison.
These three require a sales conversation to learn what they cost. That is a legitimate business model, but it is worth understanding what it means for you as a buyer.
AccuLynx publishes no pricing. The pricing page is a lead capture form. It is the deepest roofing-specific tool in this list, with production tracking, a supplementing workflow and material ordering, but you cannot price it without entering a sales cycle.
JobNimbus publishes no dollar amounts. It does publish tier structure and seat bands: Essentials up to 3 users, Pro up to 10, Premium up to 19, Enterprise above that. It claims no setup fees and no long-term contract required. Two add-on bundles are priced separately, so the quoted price and the real price will differ.
ServiceTitan publishes no pricing, and confirms on its own page that pricing is per technician. This is enterprise software for multi-trade operations with dozens of techs. If you run one to five crews, you are not the buyer.
Opaque pricing is not automatically a bad deal, but it does mean the price is negotiated individually, which means it is negotiated against what the vendor thinks you will pay and what leaving would cost you later.
“The three platforms that publish no pricing are the three most oriented to roofing. That is not a coincidence, it is how per-seat annual deals get negotiated one contractor at a time.”
The Hommy Team
Measurement reports: the one honest market
This is the commoditized, transparently priced part of the stack, and the prices are lower than most contractors assume.
Roofr: 19 dollars a report on the free tier with 24-hour delivery, 13 dollars on any paid tier with faster turnaround. The cheapest per-report price here, and you can order with no subscription at all.
GAF QuickMeasure: 18 dollars per single-family parcel for Master Elite contractors, 20 for everyone else, under an hour turnaround. You do not need GAF certification to order, the certification just saves you two dollars. A ten dollar add-on gets local building codes plus ten years of hail and wind history.
Hover: pay as you go on Starter with the first three projects free, or 999 dollars a year for Pro which takes 20 dollars off every project. Roof-only reports run 29 to 69 on Starter and 9 to 49 on Pro. The Pro membership breaks even somewhere around 50 roof-only reports a year, so do that math before subscribing.
EagleView: tiered by prepay volume. Residential roof reports run roughly 32.75 down to 24.25 for a small roof depending on tier, with larger roofs costing more and the top tier priced on request. The prepay plans are a soft form of lock-in if your volume is lumpy.
The practical read: Roofr and GAF undercut EagleView substantially on standard residential. EagleView premium is largely reputation and insurance carrier familiarity, which is worth something on claim work and nothing on retail work.
One vendor to note: RoofScope does not publish per-report pricing, and you have to start an order to see rates.
Xactimate is the property claims estimating standard, owned by Verisk. It produces line-item estimates from regionally updated price lists that carriers recognise. Editions run from single-platform up to a cross-platform Pro version and a version with rules-based quality checking.
Who needs it: contractors doing insurance restoration and storm work, who need to write supplements in the language the adjuster uses. If you are retail-only, where the homeowner pays cash or finances, you do not need it.
On pricing, we are going to be honest rather than helpful: Verisk does not maintain a stable, reachable public pricing page. Figures appear inconsistently and the dedicated pricing URLs return errors. We are not publishing a number we could not confirm twice.
The option the software vendors will never suggest: many small roofers outsource supplementing to a third-party service on a percentage-of-recovery basis rather than buying a seat and learning the software. If you write a handful of supplements a year, that is very often the right call.
The integration exists on every platform here, but the tier gating is where it gets you. On Roofr, QuickBooks arrives only at the top tier. On Housecall Pro, QuickBooks Online sync starts at Essentials rather than Basic. AccuLynx documents a bidirectional sync covering job financials rather than your whole books.
Budget for the tier above the one you first priced, because accounting integration is usually one step up from where you thought you were landing.
Payment processing is where the real margin is
Subscription pricing is the number you compare. Processing is the number that costs you.
Housecall Pro publishes card processing starting at 2.59 percent. Most others do not publish rates at all. Run the math on your own volume: if you put 150,000 dollars a month through a platform, a half-point difference in processing is 750 dollars a month, which dwarfs any tier upgrade discussed above.
Ask for the processing rate in writing before you agree the subscription price, and ask whether you are permitted to bring your own processor.
Two questions before any demo
What is the renewal price after the first term, and what is the payment processing rate? Both are usually absent from the pricing page, and both will cost you more over three years than the subscription tier you are agonising over.
What switching actually costs
The subscription is the small number. The real cost of moving platforms is:
Data migration. Vendors offer free migration, but it typically covers contacts and open jobs, not five years of job photos and signed contracts.
Retraining every estimator, admin and crew lead, during which throughput drops for a month or two.
Parallel running, because you usually pay both platforms during the transition.
Whatever remains on the contract you are leaving.
For a five-crew shop that realistically means several thousand dollars of overlapping subscription plus a quarter of degraded productivity. This is precisely why vendors with opaque pricing can raise renewal prices: they know what leaving costs you.
Lock-in, in the vendors own words
Jobber: annual prepaid is non-refundable, and annual rates are introductory rates that step up after twelve months.
Leap: monthly billing on an annual contract.
Housecall Pro: states no contracts, cancel anytime.
JobNimbus: claims no long-term contract required.
AccuLynx and ServiceTitan: publish nothing, so your terms are whatever you negotiate.
Get the renewal price, the auto-renewal notice window, and the cancellation procedure in writing before you sign. Missing a 30 or 60 day notice window is the single most common way a contractor gets stuck for another year.
Do you actually need any of this?
Honestly, if you are running one or two crews, often no.
A spreadsheet, a shared calendar, QuickBooks and a measurement service at 13 to 20 dollars a report covers a small operation with one estimator. The point where a CRM starts genuinely paying for itself is roughly when more than one person is selling, when you have more than about fifteen active jobs at once, or when you are losing leads because nobody followed up. Below that you are buying software to feel organised.
The cheapest sensible starting point in this whole list is a free measurement tier with per-report pricing. It gets you the one thing that is unambiguously worth paying for, accurate measurements without climbing, and commits you to nothing.
A note on review scores
We are not quoting G2 or Capterra ratings, and you should be careful with them too.
Both platforms monetise through vendor lead generation, so category rankings are not neutral. Both are also gameable in an ordinary way: incentivised review campaigns, gift cards for reviews, which skew volume and recency toward whichever vendor is currently spending.
Better signal, and it costs you three phone calls: ask three roofers in your market who left a platform why they left. Then search the platform name alongside the words cancel and renewal in contractor groups. The complaints cluster around exactly the terms nobody reads before signing.
