Looking for a Joblogic alternative?
Joblogic is field service software for contractors across more than 30 trades, priced per user and usually on a multi-year commitment. We Sweep is built for chimney sweeps alone: a sweep certificate for every flue, customers booking and paying on your own website, routes planned and next year's sweep prompted, with no contract and £0 a month. (We build We Sweep. Everything we say about Joblogic comes from its own website, checked on 19 October 2026.)

Why sweeps choose We Sweep over Joblogic
Made for one trade, not thirty
Joblogic serves more than 30 trades. The certificates its website names are for trades such as gas, oil, electrical and fire safety work, and its chimney sweep page doesn't name a sweeping certificate. We Sweep is built for chimney sweeps only: a certificate for every flue, with the smoke draw test, CO alarm check, photos, your trade-body numbers and the next sweep due.
No contract and no per-user bill
Joblogic's Standard plan is from £49 per user a month, billed annually, plus VAT, and most of its customers commit to 24 or 36 months. We Sweep has no contract and no monthly fee, with unlimited technicians; your customers pay a £1.95 online booking fee.
Online booking from day one
Joblogic's customer portal comes with its Enterprise plan. We Sweep's booking widget goes on your own website straight away, and customers either pay by card when they book or pay you on the day.
Route planning without an upgrade
Joblogic puts Route Scheduling in its Premium plan. We Sweep orders every technician's day to cut the driving, and re-plans it as bookings change.
Annual re-sweeps that bring customers back
About 11 months after the sweep, for bookings made through We Sweep, the customer gets a prompt to book their next one with you.
Works with no signal
Start the job, take the photos, fill in the certificate and record a cash or bank transfer payment in a cottage with no signal; it's all sent when you're back in range.
Frequently asked questions
Why do chimney sweeps look for a Joblogic alternative?
Joblogic is a field service platform for contractors across more than 30 trades, priced per user and usually on a 24 or 36-month commitment. The certificates its website names are for other trades, such as gas, oil and electrical work, and its chimney sweep page doesn't name a sweeping certificate. Sweeps who want software made for the trade, without a contract or a per-user bill, look for an alternative.
Is We Sweep cheaper than Joblogic?
For your business, yes. Joblogic's Standard plan is from £49 per user a month, billed annually, plus VAT; its own example is £245 a month for a five-user team. We Sweep has no monthly fee, no per-user charge and nothing per booking: your customers pay a £1.95 online booking fee.
Can I bring my customers and bookings across?
Yes. We Sweep's import takes your existing bookings from a spreadsheet (CSV or Excel), and bookings you import in your first 14 days carry no booking fee, for you or your customers.
Is there a contract?
No. We Sweep is free to join, with no contract and no monthly fee, so you can set it up and run it alongside your current system until you're ready to switch.
