AccuLynx vs JobNimbus vs Roofr splits on price transparency and measurement: Roofr publishes flat plans from $0 to $349 a month with unlimited users and sells its own roof reports at $13, while AccuLynx and JobNimbus price by quote and order measurements from partners such as EagleView ($18 to $87 per residential report on its published price sheet) and Hover. This comparison is compiled from each vendor’s pricing pages, integration directories, help-center articles and dated product announcements, checked October 2026. We did not run hands-on tests.
By The Roofing Brief Team. Last reviewed: October 2026.
The short version
- Roofr is the only one of the three with published prices: Starter $0, Measure+ $109 to $169, Essentials $249 and Scale $349 per month billed monthly, all with unlimited users, per Roofr’s pricing page.
- AccuLynx’s pricing page is a quote form with no dollar figures (October 2026); a third-party tracker, PricingSaaS, logged the removal of its $250 a month Essential plan on August 24, 2026.
- JobNimbus also prices by quote; ITQlick figures from June 2026, cited in an analysis by Projul (a competing software vendor), put it at a $225 or $550 a month base plus $20 to $75 per user.
- All three connect to ABC Supply, SRS and QXO (formerly Beacon) for material orders: AccuLynx lists all three on its integrations page, and Roofr launched ABC Supply ordering on February 3, 2025 and SRS in July 2025.
- Roofr’s $13 report undercuts an EagleView Premium report ordered through AccuLynx or JobNimbus by $11.25 to $74, which is $3,375 to $22,200 a year at 300 reports.
- None of the three is built for $5M+ commercial work with AIA billing and bonded multi-phase jobs; look at Buildertrend or a commercial platform.
The Short Answer: 3-Way Verdict by Operator Profile
Pick Roofr if you want to see the full price before a demo, run under 10 users and pull 300 or more measurement reports a year, where its $13 report saves $3,375 or more against EagleView. Pick AccuLynx if you want EagleView, Hover, GAF QuickMeasure, RoofSnap, QXO, ABC Supply, SRS, QuickBooks, CallRail and Roofle all inside one system. Pick JobNimbus if you run separate storm, retail and service pipelines and want a two-way QuickBooks Online sync.
| If your shop | Start with | Threshold behind the call |
|---|---|---|
| Has 1 or 2 users and orders fewer than 10 reports a month | Roofr Starter | $0 a month; $19 reports delivered in 24 hours or less |
| Orders 10 or more reports a month but does not need a full CRM | Roofr Measure+ | $109 to $169 a month cuts reports to $13 with 2 or 6 hour delivery |
| Needs QuickBooks sync on Roofr | Roofr Scale | QuickBooks integration is listed on Scale ($349 a month, $299 billed yearly), not Essentials |
| Pulls 300+ reports a year and is weighing AccuLynx or JobNimbus | Price Roofr first | $13 versus $24.25 to $87 for EagleView Premium: $3,375 to $22,200 a year |
| Wants measurement, photos and distributor ordering from one integrations list | AccuLynx | EagleView, Hover, GAF QuickMeasure, RoofSnap, Geospan, CompanyCam, ABC, SRS and QXO all listed |
| Runs more than one pipeline (storm, retail, service) | JobNimbus | Admin-built workflows per job type; QuickBooks Online two-way or one-way sync |
| Does $5M+ commercial with AIA billing | None of the three | Buildertrend or a commercial platform |
How We Compared Them
We compared the three on published pricing pages (roofr.com/pricing, acculynx.com/pricing), integration directories (AccuLynx, Hover, EagleView and Roofr’s supplier pages), help-center articles such as JobNimbus’s QuickBooks Online guide, and dated vendor product announcements. Ownership and review sources are listed in our 2026 roofing CRM software showdown.
Disclosure: The Roofing Brief did not run these platforms in a roofing business, time quotes, or survey reps or homeowners. AccuLynx and JobNimbus prices below are third-party estimates labeled as such; the multi-year totals are our arithmetic on those inputs, so expect your quote to differ.
Pricing: 3-Way Comparison (2026)
| Cost Item | AccuLynx | JobNimbus | Roofr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Published price | No; quote form only (acculynx.com/pricing, October 2026) | No; request pricing | Yes (roofr.com/pricing) |
| Free tier | No | No | Starter, $0 a month |
| Plans | Pro and Elite by quote; $250 Essential removed August 24, 2026, per PricingSaaS | Tiered by user count, by quote | Measure+ $109 to $169; Essentials $249 ($209 yearly); Scale $349 ($299 yearly) |
| Per-user cost | Third-party estimates $55 to $120 per user a month | Third-party estimate (ITQlick, June 2026): $225 or $550 base plus $20 to $75 per user | $0; unlimited users on every plan |
| Native roof reports | No; orders EagleView, Hover, GAF QuickMeasure, RoofSnap or Geospan | No; orders EagleView or Hover | Yes, $13 on paid plans, $19 on Starter |
| ESX file for Xactimate | Through the measurement vendor | Through the measurement vendor | $12 per report on Starter, $10 on Measure+ |
| QuickBooks | Two-way sync, per AccuLynx | QuickBooks Online two-way or one-way sync | Scale plan only |
Roofr’s Starter plan includes $19 reports, 10 trial proposals, invoices and work orders, 5 automated actions and supplier integrations at $0. Unlimited proposals and e-signatures start on Essentials at $249 a month.
The per-report gap is where the money moves. EagleView’s published Premium residential price runs from $24.25 (Small, Gold tier) to $87 (Large, Bronze), so Roofr’s $13 report is $11.25 to $74 cheaper each time; at 300 reports a year that is $3,375 to $22,200. AccuLynx shops can narrow it with EagleView Bid Perfect at $18 or other aerial reports.
CRM and Customer Pipeline
All three give you contacts, jobs, pipeline stages and follow-up; the differences are in pipeline count and automation limits.
Roofr publishes its limits by plan: Starter has 1 basic job board and 5 automated actions, Essentials 1 flexible job board and 10 automated actions, and Scale 7 customizable job boards, custom job tags and 25+ automated actions.
AccuLynx and JobNimbus do not publish board or automation counts by tier. Ask each for the number of pipelines, automation rules and user roles included in the tier you are quoted, and compare against Roofr Scale’s 7 boards and 25+ automated actions.
Sales and Quoting Workflow
In Roofr the report is ordered inside the platform and arrives in 2 hours on Essentials and Scale, or 24 hours or less on Starter. AccuLynx orders EagleView from desktop or mobile and drops the measurements into the estimate, and GAF QuickMeasure delivers select reports in under an hour, per AccuLynx’s integrations page. Time two or three of your own recent jobs in each trial before you decide.
Roof Measurement Integration
AccuLynx lists five measurement integrations: EagleView, GAF QuickMeasure, Geospan, Hover and RoofSnap. JobNimbus appears on both Hover’s integrations page and EagleView’s partner directory. Roofr sells its own report and an ESX file for Xactimate at $10 to $12 depending on plan.
Only EagleView publishes a LiDAR comparison: 98.77 percent on roof lines in a CompassData study EagleView commissioned (June 4, 2025). Roofr publishes none, so check a few $13 Roofr reports against roofs you have measured before using them on mansards, 9+ facet roofs or low-slope sections. Prices for every measurement vendor are in our EagleView vs Hover vs RoofSnap comparison.
Production Management
AccuLynx sells crew management, a mobile crew app, AccuPay payments and ReportsPlus as add-ons by quote, per PricingSaaS’s capture of its plan page. Roofr Scale ($349 a month) lists crew management, profit margins and job costs, and a performance dashboard. JobNimbus’s QuickBooks Online sync does not carry expenses such as work orders, material orders and bills paid, per its help center, so job costing that depends on those lives in JobNimbus or QuickBooks, not both.
Ask each vendor to demo a job from signed contract to final invoice with a material order, a change order and a subcontractor payment, using your own job count (for example 15 or 40 active jobs).
Mobile App: Honest Assessment
AccuLynx says EagleView reports can be ordered from its mobile app and populate the estimate. Roofr markets ordering materials from your phone with direct ABC Supply, QXO and SRS integrations. JobNimbus and AccuLynx both list CompanyCam integrations, and JobNimbus’s syncs photos one way from CompanyCam into JobNimbus, per its help center.
App-store ratings shift with each release, so install all three on your crews’ own phones during a trial and run one inspection, one quote and one signature on each.
Reporting and Analytics
Roofr puts its performance dashboard and job-cost reporting on Scale ($349 a month); Essentials ($249) does not list them. AccuLynx sells ReportsPlus and DataMart as add-ons, and JobNimbus does not publish its report set by tier, so ask for the report list included in your quote.
Instant Estimator Links and Lead-Source Tracking
Roofr is the only one of the three with a built-in homeowner instant estimator. Its Instant Estimator is a paid add-on ($149 per month, or $125 per month billed yearly) that works on any plan, including free Starter. AccuLynx and JobNimbus offer instant quotes through RoofQuote PRO by Roofle, a separate product that syncs leads in.
| Lead capture | AccuLynx | JobNimbus | Roofr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homeowner instant quote | Through RoofQuote PRO by Roofle (AppConnections integration) | Through RoofQuote PRO by Roofle (API key integration) | Native Instant Estimator add-on |
| Cost of the quote tool | Separate Roofle subscription | Separate Roofle subscription | $149/mo, or $125/mo billed yearly, on any plan |
| Where the lead lands | Unassigned lead, with product, shingle type and pricing on the Job Communications tab | New contact, with a configurable lead source name | New Job Card on the Job Board |
| Per-link tracking | Not a native AccuLynx feature | Not a native JobNimbus feature | Unlimited estimator links, each tracked to the leads it drives |
Roofr lets you create a separate link for each ad, door hanger, QR code or realtor partner and tracks which links produce leads (per Roofr’s Instant Estimator page and its realtor-referral guide). At $1,788 a year ($149 times 12), compare it with your gross profit on one extra reroof.
AccuLynx’s Spring 2025 update added RoofQuote PRO by Roofle, which drops website instant-quote leads into AccuLynx as unassigned leads. Its Fall 2025 update added a CallRail connection, sold through the AppConnections add-on, that syncs calls and form submissions and can filter them by campaign or tracking number.
JobNimbus connects to the same Roofle tool with an API key, and Roofle lets you set the lead source name that lands in JobNimbus (per Roofle’s JobNimbus integration guide). With Roofle on either CRM you pay for 2 systems, so ask both vendors where per-campaign reporting lives.
Integration Ecosystem
| Integration | AccuLynx | JobNimbus | Roofr |
|---|---|---|---|
| QuickBooks | Two-way sync of invoices and payments | QuickBooks Online, two-way or one-way; expenses do not sync | Scale plan ($349 a month) |
| EagleView | Order from desktop or mobile; populates estimate | Listed on EagleView’s partner directory | Own reports at $13 instead |
| Hover | Listed | Listed on Hover’s integrations page | Not listed on Hover’s page |
| Other measurement | GAF QuickMeasure, Geospan, RoofSnap | Ask the vendor | Own reports; ESX $10 to $12 |
| CompanyCam | Photos, tags and documents sync to the job file | Photos sync one way from CompanyCam | Ask the vendor |
| ABC Supply | Listed | Ask the vendor | Direct ordering since February 3, 2025 |
| QXO (formerly Beacon) | Branch availability, account pricing and orders | Ask the vendor | Direct ordering listed |
| SRS Distribution | Catalog with company pricing and order tracking | Ask the vendor | Direct ordering since July 2025 |
| CallRail and Roofle | Both listed | Roofle by API key | Own Instant Estimator |
| Zapier | Listed | Ask the vendor | Ask the vendor |
Sources: AccuLynx’s integrations page, JobNimbus’s QuickBooks Online help article, JobNimbus’s CompanyCam help article and Roofr’s material ordering page, all checked October 2026. “Ask the vendor” means we could not confirm it from a public vendor page, not that it is missing.
Where AccuLynx Wins
AccuLynx has the longest public integrations list of the three: five measurement vendors (EagleView, GAF QuickMeasure, Geospan, Hover, RoofSnap), three distributors (ABC Supply, QXO, SRS), QuickBooks, CompanyCam, CallRail, Roofle, Angi and Zapier. If your reps already order from more than one measurement vendor and more than one distributor, that list matters more than the quote.
Where JobNimbus Wins
JobNimbus suits shops that run more than one workflow, such as storm, retail and service, under one account, and its QuickBooks Online connector offers both two-way and one-way sync, per its help center. The ITQlick per-user range of $20 to $75 means a mostly field team can cost far less per seat than the $55 to $120 estimated for AccuLynx.
Where Roofr Wins
Roofr wins on price you can see before a sales call: $0 Starter, $13 reports on any paid plan, unlimited users, and supplier ordering with ABC Supply, QXO and SRS. For brand new shops under 10 users, Essentials at $249 a month ($209 billed yearly) with unlimited proposals and e-signatures covers the sales side without per-seat math.
The Demo Trap: How to Watch a Vendor Demo Correctly
Bring one of your own jobs: a real address, a 28-square or larger roof, a material order to your actual ABC, QXO or SRS branch, and an insurance supplement if you do storm work. Count the screens and the fields the rep types that should have been filled from the measurement report.
Ask for 3 things in writing: the week-by-week onboarding plan, a 3-year all-in quote including measurement reports at your annual volume, and two reference customers within 25 percent of your revenue and user count.
The 3-Way Operator Match
| If your profile is | Best Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Solo operator, brand new shop, under $500K | Roofr | $0 Starter with $19 reports; Essentials at $249 when you need unlimited proposals |
| $500K to $2M residential, 1 to 3 reps, 200+ reports a year | Roofr | $13 reports save $2,250 to $14,800 a year against EagleView Premium at 200 reports |
| $500K to $2M, several revenue lines | JobNimbus | Separate workflows; per-user estimate $20 to $75 (ITQlick) |
| $2M to $15M residential, several measurement and supply vendors | AccuLynx | 5 measurement and 3 distributor integrations on one list |
| Storm restoration, Xactimate-heavy | AccuLynx or JobNimbus with Hover, or Roofr | Hover lists Xactimate; Roofr sells ESX files at $10 to $12 |
| Commercial $5M+ (bonded, AIA, multi-phase) | None of the three | Buildertrend or a vertical commercial system |
Reference Customer Profile: What Each Vendor’s Best Customers Look Like
This is our editorial read of each vendor’s own pricing and integration pages, not interviews. AccuLynx’s quote-only Pro and Elite plans and its five measurement integrations point at shops with several reps and an established supplier mix. Roofr’s unlimited-user flat plans point at shops that would otherwise pay per seat for 3 to 10 users. Call two references of your own size before you sign.
What Each Vendor’s Roadmap Is Telling You
Dated releases show direction. AccuLynx added Roofle instant quotes in its Spring 2025 update and CallRail in Fall 2025, both lead-source features. Roofr added ABC Supply ordering on February 3, 2025 and SRS ordering in July 2025, both production features. JobNimbus came under Sumeru Equity Partners control in a $330 million deal closed November 13, 2024, per our CRM showdown sources.
Total Cost of Ownership Over 3 Years
Illustrative math for a residential shop with 7 users (5 sales, 2 production) and 300 measurement reports a year. Roofr figures are published; AccuLynx and JobNimbus software lines use the third-party estimates above, and their report lines use EagleView’s published Bid Perfect ($18) to Gold Premium Medium ($49) prices. CompanyCam is shown at its Crew plan for 7 users on annual billing: a $119 to $129 base (the October 2026 pricing page shows both) with 3 users included and $29 for each added user.
| Annual cost component (7 users, 300 reports) | AccuLynx | JobNimbus | Roofr |
|---|---|---|---|
| Software | $4,620 to $10,080 (7 users at $55 to $120, estimate) | $4,380 to $12,900 ($225 to $550 base plus 7 users at $20 to $75, estimate) | $3,588 to $4,188 (Scale, yearly or monthly billing) |
| Measurement reports (300) | $5,400 to $14,700 (EagleView $18 to $49) | $5,400 to $14,700 (EagleView $18 to $49) | $3,900 (Roofr at $13) |
| CompanyCam Crew, 7 users, annual billing (if used) | $2,820 to $2,940 | $2,820 to $2,940 | $2,820 to $2,940 |
| Estimated annual total | $12,840 to $27,720 | $12,600 to $30,540 | $10,308 to $11,028 |
| Estimated 3-year total | $38,520 to $83,160 | $37,800 to $91,620 | $30,924 to $33,084 |
Setup and implementation fees are quoted individually by AccuLynx and JobNimbus and are not included; Roofr lists none. At 5 users instead of 7, CompanyCam Crew drops to $2,124 to $2,244 a year; at 10 users it is $3,864 to $3,984.
What Feature Lists Do Not Show
First, add-ons: AccuLynx lists AccuPay, Customer Portal, Smart(er) Docs, AccuFi, ReportsPlus, DataMart, Texting, Mobile Crew App and AppConnections as quoted add-ons, per PricingSaaS. Ask which are in your quote.
Second, plan gates: on Roofr, QuickBooks and job costing sit on Scale ($349), not Essentials ($249), so a shop that needs accounting sync pays the higher plan.
Third, sync direction: JobNimbus’s QuickBooks Online sync excludes work orders, material orders and bills paid, and its CompanyCam sync is one way, so plan where each record lives.
The Cost of a Bad Pick
For a 7-user shop, the annual totals above differ by up to $20,232 (JobNimbus high estimate $30,540 versus Roofr low $10,308), and a switch in year two repeats setup and data migration. Get the 3-year quote in writing, with measurement reports at your actual volume, before you sign.
The Distributor Question Nobody Asks Up Front
AccuLynx lists QXO (branch availability, account pricing and orders), SRS (catalog with your company pricing and order tracking) and ABC Supply. Roofr lists direct ordering with ABC Supply, QXO and SRS. We could not confirm JobNimbus’s distributor integrations from a public JobNimbus page in October 2026, so ask for a live order to your branch in the demo.
If 80 percent or more of your material goes through one distributor, make that distributor’s order flow the first item in every demo.
How to Run the Decision in Your Shop
- Write down users by role, measurement reports per year, distributor share and whether you need QuickBooks sync.
- Shortlist 2 vendors from the operator match table above.
- Ask each for a written 3-year quote including reports at your volume; use Roofr’s published $13 and EagleView’s published $18 to $87 as the benchmark.
- Run 3 of your own recent jobs through each trial, including one with a material order to your branch.
- Call 2 reference customers within 25 percent of your size per vendor.
- Block 4 hours a week for onboarding on your calendar before you sign.
The Real Trade-Offs
AccuLynx: quote-only pricing in exchange for the longest integration list (5 measurement vendors, 3 distributors). JobNimbus: quote-only pricing with role-based seats and separate pipelines. Roofr: published $0 to $349 plans and $13 reports, with QuickBooks and job costing gated to the $349 Scale plan.

What the Roadmap Comparison Tells You About Year Two
The 2025 releases point two ways: AccuLynx toward lead sources (Roofle in Spring 2025, CallRail in Fall 2025) and Roofr toward supply and production (ABC Supply in February 2025, SRS in July 2025). Ask each vendor for its next 12 months of planned releases in writing.
Buyer Watch-Outs for Each Vendor
AccuLynx: get the add-on list priced, since AppConnections (needed for CallRail and Roofle) is quoted separately.
JobNimbus: confirm which records sync to QuickBooks Online, because expenses such as work orders, material orders and bills paid do not.
Roofr: for mansards, 9+ facet roofs and commercial work, keep EagleView ($24.25 to $89.50 Premium) available alongside $13 Roofr reports.
The Comparison Most Operators Should Actually Run
Price your own year: users times seat cost, plus reports per year times report cost, plus add-ons. A 7-user, 300-report shop lands at $10,308 to $11,028 on Roofr and $12,840 to $27,720 on AccuLynx and $12,600 to $30,540 on JobNimbus using the estimates above; plug in your quotes to replace the estimates.
FAQs
Which is cheapest to start with: AccuLynx, JobNimbus, or Roofr?
Roofr. Its Starter plan is $0 a month with $19 measurement reports, and Essentials is a flat $249 a month ($209 billed yearly) with unlimited users. AccuLynx and JobNimbus do not publish prices; third-party estimates put AccuLynx at $55 to $120 per user a month and JobNimbus at a $225 or $550 base plus $20 to $75 per user.
AccuLynx vs Roofr: which is better for a roofing company?
Roofr is better if you want published pricing, unlimited users and $13 roof reports; it costs $10,308 to $11,028 a year for a 7-user, 300-report shop in our example. AccuLynx is better if you need 5 measurement vendors and 3 distributors (ABC Supply, QXO, SRS) in one integrations list and are willing to price by quote.
Does Roofr actually compete with AccuLynx and JobNimbus, or is it a starter tool?
It competes on the Scale plan ($349 a month), which adds 7 job boards, 25+ automated actions, crew management, job costing and QuickBooks. The Starter and Essentials plans leave out QuickBooks and job costing.
Which CRM is best for storm-restoration roofing?
Pick by the Xactimate path. Hover lists Xactimate and XactAnalysis integrations and works with AccuLynx and JobNimbus; Roofr sells ESX files at $10 to $12 per report. Ask each vendor to demo a supplement on one of your own claims.
Can I run a multi-branch operation in Roofr?
Roofr’s published plans list job boards (up to 7 on Scale) and role-based permissions on Scale but no branch-level features, so ask for a demo with your branch structure. JobNimbus and AccuLynx price branch features by quote.
What is the realistic implementation timeline for each?
None of the three publishes one. Ask each vendor for a written week-by-week onboarding plan and plan for at least 4 hours a week of owner time until reps quote and sign inside the new system.
Do any of these handle commercial roofing well?
For light commercial, AccuLynx can order commercial measurement reports from GAF QuickMeasure and EagleView ($79 to $89.50 for a commercial Premium). None of the three is built for $5M+ commercial with bonded work, AIA billing or multi-phase TPO; look at Buildertrend or a commercial platform.
How does measurement cost change my CRM decision?
It can swing it. Roofr’s own reports cost $13 on paid plans, versus $24.25 to $87 for an EagleView Premium residential report ordered through AccuLynx or JobNimbus. At 300 reports a year that is $3,375 to $22,200; at 500 it is $5,625 to $37,000.
What is the most common mistake operators make picking among these three?
Comparing seat prices and leaving out measurement reports and add-ons. In our 7-user example, reports alone are $3,900 a year on Roofr and $5,400 to $14,700 on EagleView, more than the Roofr software line.
