If you're shopping for roofing CRM software, you've hit two names more than any other: AccuLynx and JobNimbus. Both are well-established, both have long feature lists, and both are expensive enough to make a real dent in a small contractor's margin. Here's what they actually cost — and what you get for it.
AccuLynx's published pricing starts at $85–$95 per user per month with a minimum user count. A 6-person team — you, a PM, two sales reps, an office manager, and a field supervisor — runs $550–$600/month on the base plan before you add any premium modules. Larger teams hit $1,200/month easily.
JobNimbus starts at $619/month for smaller teams under its standard workflow package. Power users with automation, document management, and reporting add-ons push past $900/month.
Both require annual contracts. If you sign up and realize the software doesn't fit your workflow, you're paying for it anyway.
Per-user pricing punishes growth. Every time you hire, your software bill goes up. You have a sales rep who only logs in twice a week to update job status — you're paying full price for that seat. You bring on a second PM during storm season — that's another $85–$100/month. By the time you have 8 people who need CRM access, you're paying $700–$800/month whether those users are active daily or not.
Roofing OS CRM is $299/month. That's the price for your entire team. Add users, don't add users, hire more sales reps during storm season — the bill doesn't change.

AccuLynx and JobNimbus are contractor management tools. They track jobs, store documents, and help you manage your pipeline. What they don't have is a homeowner-facing layer. Roofing OS CRM comes bundled with the Portal Pro homeowner portal — meaning every job you manage in the CRM automatically has a live homeowner portal attached to it.
That's something neither competitor offers at any price. When an adjuster asks for a status update, you send them a link. When a homeowner wants to know where they are in the process, they open their portal. When you want to show a potential client what working with you looks like, you show them a live portal demo. No other roofing CRM has this.
The most common concern when switching CRMs is getting your existing data out of the old system. AccuLynx and JobNimbus both export to CSV. Roofing OS imports from CSV directly. Most contractors migrate their active job pipeline in under a day — close out the jobs you're already mid-stream on in your old system, then start new jobs in Roofing OS. You're not locked in, so you can run both briefly during the transition without paying double for long.
If you're out of contract with AccuLynx or JobNimbus, or coming up on your renewal date, now is the time to look at what you're actually spending for what you're actually getting.
Roofing OS CRM is $299/month flat. No per-user fees. No annual contracts. Full pipeline, proposals, payments, and a homeowner portal built in.
