Blink Alternative – Time Tracking for Cleaning, Construction and Field Service in One System
Blink is an established solution for building cleaning – with a strong focus on shift planning, team communication and time tracking in cleaning facilities. Many cleaning companies work successfully with Blink. However, if your business does not only offer cleaning but also covers construction, facility management, security services or technical field service, you need a solution that brings all areas together in one system. Jobilino combines cleaning time tracking with construction site time tracking, project assignment and field service documentation – without parallel systems.
- GDPR-compliant
- Ready to go in minutes
- Cleaning + Construction + Field Service in one solution
All trades in one system
Cleaning, construction, maintenance, security, field service – all areas are recorded in Jobilino and evaluated separately. No separate tool for each department.
Gang time recording for construction sites
If your company is also active in construction, site foremen can record the working hours of entire gangs via a single device – a feature that pure cleaning solutions do not cover.
Digital site diary
Working hours flow automatically into the daily construction report – for companies that carry out or document construction work in addition to cleaning services.
The problem
When Companies Start Looking for a Blink Alternative
The search for a Blink alternative often begins when a company outgrows pure building cleaning. Facility management businesses that offer not only cleaning but also building services, winter maintenance, or security services need a solution that covers all trades — not just one. Likewise, companies that provide both cleaning and construction or technical services look for a system that can handle both, without running two separate software solutions in parallel.
- Your company covers multiple trades – cleaning, maintenance, security, winter services – and needs a single system
- You also work in construction or skilled trades and need crew time capture and daily site reports
- You want project time tracking with site-accurate assignment – not just object time tracking
- Your field staff need travel time separation and order-related deployment documentation
- You want to record subcontractors in the same system as your own employees
- You are looking for a solution with a simpler onboarding experience – without long-term contractual commitment
The solution
Why Jobilino Is the Right Blink Alternative for Broader Use Cases
Jobilino covers not only cleaning, but combines time tracking for cleaning, construction, trades, field service, facility management, and security in a single system. Cleaning staff clock in via NFC at the site, site foremen record crews on the construction site, service technicians document customer assignments with photo documentation, and security personnel maintain digital patrol logs. If your company covers several of these areas, Jobilino significantly simplifies time tracking — without parallel systems, without duplicate data maintenance.
Travel time separation for field staff
Travel time, waiting time and active deployment time are clearly separated for field staff – relevant for service and maintenance teams within a facility management operation.
Location verification via NFC – like Blink, plus more
Jobilino offers NFC-based clock-in and clock-out at cleaning sites – complemented by features such as photo documentation, object-specific target/actual comparisons and performance record exports per client.
Subcontractor management
Your own employees and subcontractors are recorded in the same system – clearly separated and individually evaluable. Particularly relevant for FM operations with mixed teams.

Jobilino is a particularly worthwhile Blink alternative when your company does not only offer building cleaning but also covers other trades — such as facility management, construction, technical services, winter maintenance, or security services.
