Every feature shouldn't cost extra.
Jobber charges $29/mo for Campaigns and $39/mo for Reviews on top of the base plan. GoHighLevel layers per-email and per-SMS usage fees on top of the monthly subscription. If you're piecing together a bill from add-ons, there's a simpler option.
Here's what's happening in your bill
Campaigns: $29/mo on top of your base Jobber plan
Jobber's email and postcard marketing tool is a separate paid add-on. So is the Reviews tool ($39/mo). Running a solo service business with marketing built in starts adding up fast when the fundamentals are on separate line items.
GoHighLevel charges per-SMS and per-email on top of the base
GoHighLevel's Starter plan is $97/mo, but every email and SMS send is billed separately at usage rates published in their help center. The base subscription is just the entry fee; the real bill depends on how much you communicate.
The bill keeps growing after you sign up
Campaigns, reviews, AI tools, extra users, SMS. Each one is a separate line item. By the time you have the basics turned on, the bill can climb well past the advertised entry price. We break down the line-item math on our Jobber pricing page.
The "included" plan turns into a pieced-together stack
Most service software advertises a low entry price that covers scheduling and invoicing. Everything else (the marketing, reputation, client communication stack) gets added on separately as you actually need it.
Ruunly bundles the essentials for one flat price
Ruunly Pro+ includes website, recurring plan billing, customer portal, job scheduling, email and SMS campaigns, and review requests in one monthly price. No per-email fees. No per-SMS markup. Texting is part of your plan's included allowance on Pro and Growth. Ruunly does charge a platform fee on each payment processed (2.5% on Starter, 1.5% on Pro, 0.75% on Growth). That's the full picture. One pricing page, no surprises.
