Best for lawn care and green industry firms
RealGreen is WorkWave's software for lawn care and green industry companies, with a CRM, online measuring, scheduling, routing, a crew app and analytics. Pricing is a custom quote with no trial, and advanced reporting, pay-over-time and the API wait on the Professional package.
Who RealGreen is for
- Fits if you run a lawn care or green industry company and want measuring tied to quotes
- Works for firms with three or more crews, which the Small Business package targets
Who RealGreen is not for
- Skip it if you want a price, because pricing is a custom quote
- Not for you if you want a trial, as none is on record
- Not for you if you do pest control, since WorkWave sells PestPac for that
- Watch out: advanced reporting, pay-over-time and capital solutions start at Professional, and the API at Professional or higher
Why RealGreen gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published, so there is nothing to set against the category's $35 to $99 spread and it sits in the ordinary band. The pricing page asks for a custom quote.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan and no trial on record, so nothing to try before paying.
- CFeaturesCRM and online measuring, scheduling, work orders and routing, a crew app, a customer portal, marketing and sales tools and Wavelytics analytics. Advanced reporting, pay-over-time and the API start at Professional.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. Customers, measured properties and routes have to be loaded in before it pays off.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb, iPhone and Android, with an API on Professional or higher. No named integrations are on record, and no desktop app.

Keep RealGreen, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace RealGreen you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 35 of the 55 other field service apps grade higher.
What you could make
- Job scheduling, quotes and estimates, invoicing and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. RealGreen’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.
