Comparison
LMN (Landscape Management Network) is landscaping-specific software known for its budgeting and estimating tools, with scheduling, a crew app and invoicing added on. Green Ledger is landscaping-specific too, but starts from the other end — the customer relationship, the contract and the billing that follows from it.
Green Ledger plans start at $50.00/month with unlimited team members. See all plans.
landscape estimating and budgeting software
LMN sells Starter, Professional and Enterprise plans. The published Starter plan is priced in the hundreds of dollars per month and includes a fixed number of office and crew licenses; additional licenses cost extra. Its strengths are company budgeting, production-rate estimating and, on the Professional plan, real-time job costing and equipment/material costing.
landscaping and lawn care business software
Green Ledger is priced by client count with unlimited team members, and is built so a company can be live in an afternoon. Its strengths are contract-driven recurring billing with autopay, two-way texting, a portal-optional customer experience, and job profitability reporting from the crew clock.
Shaded cells mark where a platform is at least as strong on that row. Green Ledger rows describe features that are live today.
