  1. Comprehensive Sub-contractor Management

    An independent contractor/sub section with settings (similar to existing contacts, but specific to contractors). What this could entail....

    Enter all contractor contacts through this process. Allow you to add data fields specific to contractors without conflating this information with customer data fields.

    A multi-selection drop down notating all fields of work and/or roof types they offer services for.

    A document tracking mechanism where an expiration date can be notated on the document and a notification is sent when the document is about to expire (i.e. when COI is about to expire, work comp, a new W9 is required).

  2. Creating Multiple Categories for Job Fields

    We have alot of commercial and residential clients and we use the Job Feilds as a template of questions for our receptionists ask during job creation. These question normally only apply to residential full replacement customers so we just have to type a note for commercial clients. It would be great to be able to create entirely different templates in Job Fields for each different job type.

  3. Create "Work Order" Automations

    Automate "Work Order" Creations. For Ex: When the "Status" is moved to a specific department / Status, a work order is automatically created. We currently have to manually create thousands of work orders a year for every department to view on their work flow boards. If you can currently automate creating tasks when the job status is moved, why can you not create a work order the same way? The work order specifics will be set up like the task specifics when setting the "action". For Ex: *Design template *Saved work order *Work order Type *Assigned to.

  4. All Automated Engage Activity Displays under Contact

    When utilizing an automation to send an Engage message, the information will only log on the primary contact when the trigger record is a Task, Job, or Contact trigger.
    This feature is absent when utilizing an automation that triggers from an Invoice, Estimate, Material Order, or Work Order and can only fully be viewed when reviewing the Engage conversation.

    I would like the ability to see all my Engage activity on the primary contact record as this is the source of the phone number and the activity is logged here when an Email communication is sent.

  5. Custom fields for specific contact or work order types

    Custom fields for specific contact, job, or work order types. Custom fields are not a one size fits all for all work order, job, or contact workflows. We require a seperate set of custom fields for each type of workflow for contacts, jobs, and workorder.

  6. Change names for signing documents

    Having the ability to change the name on agreements/documents that require a signature without having to go and change the primary contact. This would save so much time when dealing with PM or CM companies that require owner signature but have the PM as the main point of contact. Especially after creating the document, if we didn't remember to change it before creating the document we have to create another of which we aren't even able to duplicate which is a whole sperate issue, wasting so much time for such an easy fix.

  7. Limit access on work orders to change status but not edit or create.

    We really need our subcontractors inside of jobnumbus to have access to change the status of a work order to complete, but for obvious reasons they need to not be able to edit or create work orders.

  8. Add Contacts Button in Top Toolbar & Search In Contacts

    Add a navigation button to the toolbar for opening the contacts page. Add a search feature on the contacts list that filters the contacts list in a larger area than the top search bar. The top search bar search is not a good way to see a list of contacts that comes up in the search for a name or address. Search filters in general need to be better.
    I have had a Contacts button in the tool bar a time or two and it has always disappeared soon after appearing. My sales people also find this annoying because they…

  9. Create "trades", under jobs, that are able to be tracked in a Gantt chart.

    Things right now are split between contacts and jobs. If you added a "trades" section that ties into the parent job, that ties into the parent contact, that would be ideal. A person calls, we add them as a client. We create a job to provide an estimate for what the client is looking for, and for the sales team to see where that lead goes. At some point the estimate is approved and "trades" are created. If the estimate was for roofing, siding, windows, and gutters then four trades are created for the production team to follow. The production…

  10. Allow Signature page not attached to an estimate

    Sometimes estimates are sent before you have earned the job, when that happens the estimate is signed reflecting the dollar amount, but you have not had the conversation yet about the smaller details like colors. I would like a way to send over those selections for signature. Kind of a "order confirmation" page where they are signing off on product, color, ventilation, etc.

  11. Be able to set any field as 'required' and not just the custom ones

    Be able to set any field as required and not just custom fields. For example email address or lead source should be able to be made required. This will assist in pulling more accurate reports.

  14. Automating the quoting experience from signing a SumoQuote...to generating a material order...and work order with the click of a button

    We came over from Rooflink and were able to completely customize and automate the process from signed contract, to measurement report, material order and work order. All with a couple clicks. Of course we needed to confirm quantities and make some adjustments but the process was simple and repeatable for all reps. So easy that a new hire could complete it with little training. The current process is not well thought out with Job Nimbus. Since we now link with Suppliers this should be a possibility to create these type of automations. Automations are key for CRM's to help create…

  15. Set appointment reminders in calendar

    The current calendar does not allow setting appointment reminders even thought it merges with Google Calendar. Being able to set reminders 30 min, 1 hour, 2 hours, 1 day, etc before a meeting is important.

  16. Can we add a photo to the contact from the job files - I would like to be able to add a photo of the front of the house to each job

    I would love to be able to add a photo to the job contact file right from the job photos- I think being able to add a photo of the front of the house as an extra layer of protection to get the crew to the right house. the first photo we take of the house from the road always gets buried at the bottom.

  17. When searching, allow keyboard arrows for scrolling through populated results...

    During our time using JobNimbus (since 2018), our office personnel has been able to use the search field to look up customers or addresses and scroll through the results using the arrows on our keyboard. As of Friday 8/26/24, that feature no longer works. Since that feature assisted greatly with efficiency while on customer phone calls, I'm sure forgetting to turn it back on with the latest update was simply an oversight. Please reinstate that feature as my team and I have have used that function for years. Thank you for your help with this :)

  18. filter for automations

    Search/Filter bar for automations within the automations page. We have 68 automations. I'm having to manually scroll down each page visually searching for automations by title. I will soon need to duplicate many of them for 2 new locations.

  20. Canvassing Features

    Nimbus already uses a map feature with geo-tracking. What our company needs is a way to track, tag, and document any addresses that we have canvassed in the past that are not necessarily customers yet. We need this feature so we can coordinate our canvassing efforts within a given area, and to know which properties we need to revisit, what happened when the sales rep was at the door, etc.

    Ideally, we would be able to change the "status" of these location pins based upon the interaction, e.g. if they weren't interested, or if they are a warm lead, or…
