For when your jobs come in by DM, not by dispatch software
NiceJob works best when every job already lives in Jobber, Housecall Pro or QuickBooks. Plenty of cleaners, handymen and landscapers take work from Instagram, WhatsApp and the phone instead. Kudo gives them a page for their bio with their services, a way to ask for a quote and their Google reviews underneath.
- A free page you can stay on, live the moment you save a name
- Service cards like "Gutter cleaning, from $150" with a button to your own booking or quote link
- An order request form where a customer describes the job, the date and sends up to 3 photos
- Your Google reviews imported and kept in sync, plus a review link, a QR code and a ready WhatsApp message
What NiceJob is good at
Putting the ask on autopilot for a service business. Connect NiceJob to Jobber, Housecall Pro, QuickBooks or Square and a finished job triggers a review request by text and email, with follow-ups for anyone who does not answer. Its plans also cover referral invites, posting your best reviews to social media, review widgets for your website, a leaderboard of which team member earns the most five-star reviews, and AI-drafted replies. If your jobs already live in one of those tools, it is very good at this.
Where it leaves you stuck
Most of its value arrives through your job software. A business that takes work from Instagram DMs, WhatsApp and phone calls has nothing for it to trigger from. And it starts with a 14-day trial rather than a plan you can stay on for free.
Where NiceJob is still ahead
Automation. NiceJob sends the review request for you the moment a job is marked done, follows up with the customers who ignore it, and invites your happiest customers to refer a friend. Kudo does none of that on its own: you send the link. NiceJob also shows which of your technicians earns the most reviews, which matters once you have a crew. If your jobs run through Jobber, Housecall Pro, QuickBooks or Square, NiceJob is the better choice.
Asking when the job is done
The best moment is standing in the driveway when the customer says the patio looks new. Kudo gives you a review link that opens WhatsApp with the message already written, so you can send it before you start the van, and a QR code to print on your invoice or leave on the fridge magnet. Every customer gets asked, happy or not.
The page a homeowner lands on from your bio
Someone who finds you on Instagram wants to know what you do, roughly what it costs and whether other people were happy. Your Kudo page answers with service cards and prices, an order request form where they can describe the job and send photos of the leaking gutter or the overgrown yard, and your Google reviews underneath, kept in sync as new ones arrive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Kudo send review requests automatically after a job?
No. For a local business the request goes out when you send it: the review link, a WhatsApp message with the link already in it, or the QR code on your invoice. If you want requests fired from Jobber or Housecall Pro every time a job closes, NiceJob does that and Kudo does not.
Is it free?
Yes, and not as a trial: the free plan does not run out. The page, unlimited links, service and product cards, a QR code, the review link, Google review import that keeps syncing by itself and 5 published reviews are all free, with a "Powered by Kudo" badge. Pro adds page themes, click analytics and photo reviews, and removes the badge.
Can a customer send me photos of the job?
Yes, through the order request form: they describe what they need, when and how much of it, and attach up to 3 reference photos. It is a request, not a booking or a payment.
