JobNimbus

The customizable contractor CRM with one of the largest installed bases in roofing.

$330M control investment from Sumeru Equity Partners, Nov 2024

JobNimbus is a residential contractor CRM with deep workflow customization, drag-and-drop Kanban pipelines, and a strong mobile app that averages around 4.8 stars. It does not measure roofs itself — contractors order EagleView or Hover reports separately and feed them in. Pricing is sales-gated, and total cost commonly lands two to three times the headline once add-ons stack. In November 2024, Sumeru Equity Partners took a $330M control investment in the company.

How it compares to Artemis (#1)

JobNimbus is a CRM, not a roof measurement tool. It integrates with EagleView and Hover for measurements you order separately (and pay for separately). Artemis generates the measurement and the proposal in one flow — no second tool, no second invoice, no second login.

Overall score
Weighted across 5 axes
7.2/ 10
Speed to Quote
7.4

How fast a contractor can go from initial measurement to a polished, sendable proposal in front of the homeowner.

Mobile UX
8.6

Usability of the mobile experience in the field — measuring, quoting, photo capture, and customer signature on a phone or tablet.

Pricing Transparency
5.5

How clearly the vendor publishes its pricing. Per-proposal, flat, or seat-based pricing all score higher than hidden, sales-gated pricing.

Ease of Setup
6.8

How quickly a new contractor can go from sign-up to first proposal sent — measured in minutes, hours, or days.

Customer Support
7.6

Quality and responsiveness of human support — measured through published response-time SLAs, support channels, and customer-reported experience.

What stood out.

Strengths
  • Customizable workflows and drag-and-drop pipelines — the most consistently cited strength across 550+ G2 and Capterra reviews
  • Mobile app averages around 4.8 stars; GPS-tagged photos with timestamps are repeatedly cited for insurance documentation
  • Deep integration ecosystem covering EagleView, Hover, Beacon, ABC Supply, and QuickBooks
  • One of the largest installed bases in the roofing CRM category, with a deep template library and active user community
  • Mature feature breadth covering leads, estimating, work orders, invoicing, payments, and reporting in one platform
Tradeoffs
  • Pricing is fully sales-gated; reviewers consistently report total cost lands 2–3x initial expectation once seats, texting, and payments fees stack
  • Email system is widely criticized — formatting, delivery, and tracking issues; vendor has publicly committed to an overhaul on the 2026 roadmap
  • Photo storage caps with weak recovery — one Capterra reviewer reported losing ~2,000 job photos with no recovery path
  • Inconsistent support quality; multiple reviewers describe tickets closed before issues resolve
  • Light on commercial features — no vendor portals, customer portals, or true job costing
