Best for landscape companies that budget job by job
LMN is landscaping software for budgeting, estimating, scheduling, invoicing and job costing, with a crew app. It starts at $297 a month on top of a one-time onboarding fee, extra licences cost extra, and it has no trial.
Who LMN is for
- Fits if you run a landscape company and want each job priced from your own costs
- Works for firms that invoice and take payment through one tool
Who LMN is not for
- Pricey if you are small: $297 a month is six times the category's middle price
- Not for you if you want a trial, since none is on record
- Skip it if you also do tree care, as the same company sells SingleOps separately for that
- Watch out: prices include a set number of licences, extra licences cost more, and a one-time onboarding fee is added
- Watch out: Enterprise pricing is sales-only
Why LMN gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for moneyStarter is $297 a month and Professional $648, both billed monthly and both above the category's dearest tenth at $208. A one-time onboarding fee applies and its amount isn't shown.

Keep LMN, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of LMN you could make: quotes and estimates, invoicing, job scheduling, time tracking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 35 of the 55 other field service apps grade higher. It costs $3,564 a year.
What you could make
- Quotes and estimates, invoicing, job scheduling, time tracking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. LMN’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
