Before you start

  • You must have an active account with both CompanyCam and JobNimbus in order to integrate the two services.

  • Integrations are not available on Basic. Upgrade your plan to take advantage of this feature.

  • You must have Admin privileges in both CompanyCam and JobNimbus.

  • You must use an Admin email address in both CompanyCam and JobNimbus when setting up the integration.

What is JobNimbus?

​JobNimbus is a CRM and project management software wrapped up in one application. The platform is an end-to-end solution designed to help contractors (roofing and construction professionals) streamline their communication and better manage their teams. From customer contacts to scheduling, boards to lead acquisition, jobs to payments, JobNimbus is the place to accurately update and track all company information.

How it works

You can choose either new Contacts or Jobs created in JobNimbus to create a CompanyCam Project. Then all photos and Documents added to this integrated Project will sync back to the Contact or Job under the Photos section!
