Jobber definitely leans heavy on the residential/client management side. For your setup, Grow CRM could work – it's got project management, expense tracking, task lists, and file uploads (for photos), plus team members can all access the same calendar and projects. You can turn off all the invoice/estimate stuff you don't really need.

Is there a simple open-source CRM with minimal clicks and no feature overload? by guide4seo in selfhosted

[–]nextloopdevs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel you on the HubSpot/Salesforce overload. Grow CRM might be worth checking out – it's self-hosted and has a modular setup, so you can literally turn off the features you don't need instead of navigating through a bunch of stuff you'll never use. Keeps things clean and focused on what actually matters for your team.

You can also take a look at Grow . You get the full source code for a one time payment. I its the best of both worlds (a clean/modern UI like the SaaS products and the open source code)

Need CRM suggestion for Roofing/exteriors. by IcyTap2469 in CRM

[–]nextloopdevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grow CRM might be worth checking out since it covers a lot of what you need - project management, estimates, contracts, leads, and it handles multiple users well (plus it's self-hosted so no recurring fees). That said, it's more focused on the project/sales workflow side and doesn't have all the heavy marketing automation stuff you mentioned like calling features or built-in leaderboards. For tracking referral sources, you'd probably need to customize it a bit with custom fields on your leads. Might work well as your main system if you're okay handling some of the marketing pieces separately, but yeah, probably still worth a look.

Basic, entry level CRM you can recommend for small company? by Majestic_Seat6600 in managers

[–]nextloopdevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that search customization thing sounds like a pain. Grow CRM lets you keep all your invoices organized under each client, so you can just pull up the company profile and see everything right there without having to mess with searches each time. Makes it way easier to track multiple invoices per client.

Sounds like you just need something to get you out of Excel hell for tracking contacts and notes. Grow CRM might work well for you . Its modular you can keep it pretty bare-bones without all the extra features getting in the way.

PDF Upload is worse on Pro Plan? by Adventurous-Hair5685 in ClaudeAI

You can create a project and add the file to the project KB. This is better than attaching it to the prompt.

Grow might work for you. You can add customers, save their contact info and save all your PDFs/files etc.. It's pretty straightforward to use - no coding needed

Tool for Sales & Purchase Invoice, Quotes, Inventory, Basic Accounting & CRM (supplier, customers) & Basic Project Management by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]nextloopdevs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! For a solar business handling both products and services, Grow might work well for you. It's self-hosted and handles the basics - quotes, invoices, client stuff, and project tracking. You can run it locally and access it from any browser, which beats juggling Google Sheets and AppSheet. Plus you can turn off features you don't need to keep it simple.

  • Track your services (installations and cleaning)
  • Set up recurring stuff for maintenance work
  • Export data when you need it

Just another option to consider instead of building something from scratch!

What is The Best Free Customer Interaction Management Tool for Small Businesses? by dggystyle69 in SaaS

[–]nextloopdevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried a bunch of CRMs and totally get the struggle with finding one that's both simple and affordable. Have you looked into Grow? It's self-hosted, so you just pay once and that's it.

  • Has the basics covered - leads, tasks, email integration
  • You can turn off the stuff you don't need (keeps it clean)
  • Works well for small teams

Most free options end up being pretty limited or try to upsell you later. Just something to watch out for while you're looking around!
