How the switch works
2. Import your customers
Upload your contact list first. Gaffer maps your columns to the right fields so names, addresses, phone numbers and emails land where they should.
3. Bring in jobs, quotes & invoices
Import your job history, quotes with their line items, and invoices with balances — all linked back to the right customer automatically.
4. Check it over
Review the imported records before you rely on them. If something needs fixing, tidy the export and re-run it — re-importing updates existing records rather than creating duplicates.
5. Run both in parallel
Keep Joblogic open while your team gets comfortable in Gaffer. There is no rush and no lock-in — work in both until Gaffer is your single source of truth.
6. Go live
Once everything looks right, switch new jobs over to Gaffer and cancel Joblogic. Your full toolkit — scheduling, payments, trade packs and the offline app — is ready to go.
What comes across
The records that make up your business move with you — so day one in Gaffer feels like business as usual.
- Customers & contacts — names, addresses, phone numbers and emails
- Job history — past and open jobs linked to the right customer
- Quotes & line items — descriptions, quantities and pricing intact
- Invoices & balances — including what is still outstanding
- Compliance records start fresh — new certificates and RAMS are created in Gaffer's UK trade packs going forward

What you actually get with Gaffer
Rather than tell you what JobLogic does or does not do — their product, their roadmap — here is exactly what is in the box on our side, with the numbers. Every figure is what the platform ships today.
| Capability | In Gaffer | What that means on the job |
|---|---|---|

| Priced quote templates | 218 templates | Start from a real list of line items for the job in front of you rather than an empty quote. |
| Health & safety records | 39 features | Risk assessments, permits, statutory inspections, HAVS exposure, health surveillance — with review dates that surface before they lapse. |
| Accreditation guidance | 30 UK schemes | CHAS, Constructionline, NICEIC, ISO 9001 and more, each with its real requirements, evidence, cost and renewal period. |
| Public sector tendering | Live feed | Contract notices from the government’s Find a Tender service, filtered to your trades, with AI-assisted bid drafting. |
| Field app | 220+ screens | Offline-first throughout — lofts, plant rooms, rural sites. Captures on the device and syncs when signal returns. |

Switching from Joblogic: common questions
How long does it take to switch?
Most businesses are up and running in an afternoon. Export your data, import it into Gaffer, check it over, then go live — often within a day. Larger histories take a little longer, but you can keep working in Joblogic until you are happy.
Will I lose any data?
No. Your data stays in Joblogic until you choose to leave, so importing into Gaffer deletes nothing. You can run both in parallel, and re-running an import updates existing records instead of duplicating them.
Can I import a CSV export?
Yes. Gaffer imports CSV exports of customers, jobs, quotes and invoices. Where Joblogic exposes an API you can connect it directly instead. Either way you map your columns to the right fields before anything is saved.
Is there a cost to switch?
No. Importing your data is included in every plan and in your 14-day free trial. There is no migration fee and no card required, so you can import and check everything before you pay. See pricing for the details.
