INFAB VS. JOBBOSS2

Everything your shop runs on, in one modern platform

JobBOSS2 has run job shops for years. Infab brings quoting, quality, materials, and shipping into one modern platform, with AI on every quote and your data imported when you switch.
Modern platform

One modern platform, and your data in it

Infab runs in the browser on every machine in the shop, including the tablets on the floor in kiosk mode. Import tools bring parts, accounts, vendors, and order history across from other quoting and ERP platforms, so the switch starts with your own history rather than an empty database. We scope the import with you before you start.

AI and DFM

Built in, not bolted on

Infab Assistant and DFM Check are part of the base subscription, not separate modules. The Assistant reads drawings, models, customer purchase orders, and material certificates into quote-ready facts and traceable inventory lots. DFM Check is a deterministic rules engine that flags deep holes, sharp internal corners, sub-tool radii, and parts that will not fit your machines. Every change the Assistant drafts waits for a person to approve it.

A fair reading

Where JobBOSS2 is strong

JobBOSS2 has flexible scheduling with several scheduling paths, and a large, established base of job shops behind it. ECI has supported the product line for years. If your shop runs on scheduling depth, or you want the largest peer group to ask for advice, that history counts.

FAQ

Common questions

Infab has import tools for data from other quoting and ERP platforms, so parts, accounts, vendors, and order history come across with you. We scope the import with you before you start so you know what moves and what does not. Plan the switch around a quiet week, and quote your first job in Infab while the rest of the history loads.

Infab is cloud software. It runs on AWS GovCloud, all stored ITAR data is encrypted there, and every Infab employee is a US person. There is no on-premise install.

Infab covers the operational loop: quoting and estimating, order and job management, machines and scheduling, material inventory with traceable lots, purchase orders and receiving, documents and quality records, shipping, and the accounting handoff through QuickBooks or Xero. JobBOSS2 has deep, flexible scheduling with several scheduling paths, and a shop that leans hard on that depth should compare the two side by side. The matrix above is the capability-by-capability view.
