What tradies say about Joblogic

JoblogicClunky reporting / export to Excel needed
“The reporting module took a bit to figure out, it's not super intuitive at first glance. Building custom reports can be kind of annoying, and I often have to export data to Excel to get what I really need”

JoblogicSteep learning curve / onboarding gaps
“The learning curve is quite steep at the start. It takes a while to figure out where everything is and how the different parts connect... A more guided setup or better onboarding would make a big difference for anyone coming in fresh”

What tradies say about simPRO

simPROMobile app glitches / poor field UX
“Simpro sucks as an employee on a phone. So many weird glitches and bugs, complicated and not intuitive. There’s an old version of the app that they stopped supporting years ago that is a lot better, still works but I don’t think you can download it anymore”

simPROPlatform crashes / outages
“Aroflo is owned by simPRO FYI. Never used Aroflo, but will pile on and confirm simPRO is total garbage from both the field and the office. They (simPRO) also have a habit of crashing for several hours at a time every few months”
