Good tool to manage your bussiness **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sandra F. | Customer service representative, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 06, 2025 **What do you like best about LMN?** I like that we have many tools and I have a record of every job done, it is easy to use, really good customer service **What do you dislike about LMN?** I don´t like that we ton´t have the option to import the information an generate a smartsheet or a googlesheet,or excel, and some of the jobs I have to do should be done one by one, for ie, every year we need to generate the ssame estimates we made last year **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Now I can send the proposals from LMN instead of creating a new email, I know that LMN is a company that tries to find a way to help you ### 2. I would recommend LMN to anyone needing to manage their estimates, quotes, and job schedule. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tanis T. | Senior Landscape Estimator and Designer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2022 **What do you like best about LMN?** Organizing the quotes based on service vs. project (standard) and then linking them to the calendar. Also, being able to see the crew's hours/progress related to said quote. **What do you dislike about LMN?** Not being able to show the material list on service estimates as you do on standard ones. Some service quotes don't require us to show the price breakdown, but, it would be nice to have the option. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Having to create our PDFs manually. Having to use a shared library of all our materials, terms and conditions, notes, etc. Having to manually create a calendar and link all job information. Overall, it helps us be more productive and organized; I can't imagine operating the company without it. ### 3. NOT FOR COMMERCIAL LANDSCAPING **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Environmental Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2023 **What do you like best about LMN?** There are a lot of capabilities to manage your RESIDENTIAL landscaping business. It ties in with your budget and captures job costing down to every detail. **What do you dislike about LMN?** This software feels like it's held together tape with bubblegum. Every customer service interaction ends with "the system doesn't have that capability right now." And there are so many BASIC FEATURES this software LACKS. Some of the absurd examples are as follows: - The measuring function is a joke. Find another software to measure anything more than a small backyard. It won't measure more than one polygon at a time. Measuring a commercial property would take literal days. - Every single function of the CRM is a separate window that must be individually saved when entering data or hitting the back button, or the data is lost. - No customization of the CRM screen. So I can't see my clients' addresses or last date contacted at a glance. I have to open each contact individually, which is cumbersome and takes so much time. - You can't copy and paste information from most screens. When you click on text it automatically opens the feature/function. For example, trying to highlight and copy a client's phone number will open the client's contact info, then you must click the "contacts" tab, then click the actual contact, then you can copy it to your clipboard... - Invoicing is a mess. No fields can carry customizable information automatically, so if any additional information is required on the invoice for a certain client (PO#, billbox code, etc.), it must be manually keyed in every single invoice. - Bulk scheduling doesn't show the number of labor hours a task/job takes to complete, and you can't limit scheduling based on labor hours. So unless you know how long each job takes, your bulk schedule will dump 100hours of work on one day, even though a crew can only complete 8 hours of work in a day. Then you manually have to divvy up the rest (using a separate window). I could go on and on about everything frustrating about this software, however, if you are a tiny mom and pop landscaper that needs a software to tell you how to run your business, this could be for you. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Job costing is more accurate. ### 4. Client Database with project & time management **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kelly L. | Human Resources & Payroll Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 09, 2022 **What do you like best about LMN?** Our team can easily share information on specific clients and research each other's added information. **What do you dislike about LMN?** search results are not always correct, often resulting in duplicated client accounts **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** time tracking, client scheduling for recurring services, client information ### 5. Not as good as we hoped but excellent support. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Facilities Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2022 **What do you like best about LMN?** The CRM, estimating and connectivity to quickbooks are fantastic features. It is so helpful to set yourself up for consistency and success when using these tools **What do you dislike about LMN?** The program is very rigid - there is very much room for flexibility if you have a job or project out of the norm. Also to update settings and add in jobs etc there are a lot of steps going back and forth between different menu windows that gets combersome quickly. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** Excellent if your operations are basic and straight forward. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Scheduling, routing jobs and storing customer details are the biggest benefits of LMN for us. Having customer info centralized makes finding info easier, automated routing makes our crews more efficient and scheduling changes are easy making our busy ever changing operations a breeze. ### 6. LMN for Landscape Professionals **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Norm C. | Director Of Client Relations, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 25, 2021 **What do you like best about LMN?** The features are very easy to use and are extensive. Virtually all the tools you will need for a self-perform landscape business. **What do you dislike about LMN?** The tools for subcontracting offers for your work are not as comprehensive. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** If you are primarily a self-perform company this is a very useful tool. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use LMN for all of our out of scope proposals. It is a great tool for both building and storing proposals. ### 7. Promising/Lots of potential but room for improvement **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brittany H. | Owner/ Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2021 **What do you like best about LMN?** LMN can be very detailed in your estimating, progress & time tracking/scheduling needs. The more data you feed it, the more detail you can achieve **What do you dislike about LMN?** There are several oversights and inconsistencies in visual, vocabulary, and system bugs that limit customization or correction to fit your individual companies needs—room for improvement with forced double entry when the software should be more intuitive. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** More detailed estimating and reporting to control profit margins to stick to budget & goals ### 8. Dean's Landscaping Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Krystle F. | O, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 15, 2021 **What do you like best about LMN?** Integration with Quickbooks and easy proposal building **What do you dislike about LMN?** Reports are limited. Client communication isn't very user friendly or comprehensive. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** Scheduling jobs - it's a work in progress. It seems much more organized with LMN then Google Calendar. ### 9. cloud-based platform that provides the business management. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Marina V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 15, 2020 **What do you like best about LMN?** It provides unique discipline on the stuff that I can control my co-worker, the status of the task are being checked by the executives. Easy to upload the information that others could benefit from the online library. It has a user-friendly interface that does not take much time to get into the working process. **What do you dislike about LMN?** I have concerns about the price that I do consider LMN as expensive. Before running our startup, we were struggling to afford LMN that It took time to have convenient revenue in order to have LMN. Besides this factor, to be honest, it is hard to talk about the disadvantages. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** LMN time improvement. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are managing our team and building a strong bond with our client as the working process is extremely enhanced by LMN ### 10. Heading for disaster **Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 21, 2020 **What do you like best about LMN?** Cheap and easy to get started. It claimed to do lots of stuff **What do you dislike about LMN?** it sticks its toe in the water of lots of features but does nothing well. Its so incomplete, you cant rely on it for any one things. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** estimating, time tracking, scheduling. Very Very inefficient and lacks usability. Its like landscapers decided to build a computer program, wait that's what happened. ### 11. Best integrated business solution I've seen for the Green Industry **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tim S. | Manager of Production & Operations, Architecture & Planning, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 03, 2019 **What do you like best about LMN?** The synergy between CRM, Estimating, Cataloging and real-time Time Tracking makes for seamless job costing and communication between the design, sales, production and administrative teams at our company. **What do you dislike about LMN?** The only knock I have on it is that it doesn't have it's own Accounting component. Not that I think about it though, it integrates with Quickbooks and the like... so why reinvent the wheel. I've been told it can get a bit cumbersome pushing accounting details to QBs though. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** Give it a try, if it doesn't work for you [which I doubt will be a problem], you're out a very small investment vs some of the other management systems out there. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** From initial client contact to pretty much everything but the final billing... LMN seems to do it all. I like the easy access to new, updates, webinars and the like within the program. Also like that you can track email correspondences by BCCing crm@golmn.com ### 12. Good program **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Design | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 12, 2019 **What do you like best about LMN?** Love that my crew can be in the field and have access to creating a time sheet for the day. Also knowing where the crews are is a big help. **What do you dislike about LMN?** Some of the aspects need to be updated. Some parts you seach by crew last name and then other by first name. It doesn't make sense that it is done both ways. When doing payroll you have to individually select team members. We only have around 50- employees, I can't imagine what big companies to, having a select all button would be a huge time saver. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** Fully investigate if this product will meet your needs. Go to training. Implement using all aspects. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** More accurate timesheets from crew members. More accurate time keeping on jobs so that we can make sure we are charging enough to clients. ### 13. This Single Handedly Got Us Off Of Microsoft Excel **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brian R. | Intern, Research, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 24, 2018 **What do you like best about LMN?** I loved most about LMN the impact that editing made on in-person activities by our crewmen. Without certain adjustments on LMN's side day to day operations would not function similarly. **What do you dislike about LMN?** I disliked the ease of access for support when they reach out to you about a problem. The problem is that there is not enough of cross-user ability on the end of staff at LMN. **Recommendations to others considering LMN:** This is a great remote project creator. **What problems is LMN solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have realized that by porting data from our business into LMN, time is more easily tracked, mistakes are made less regarding payroll and budgets, and less communication between inner office employees and technicians is needed. ## LMN Discussions - [What is Landscape Management software?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-landscape-management-software) - [How much is LMN per month?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-much-is-lmn-per-month) - [How do you use LMN?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-do-you-use-lmn) - [What does LMN do?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-does-lmn-do) - [View LMN pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/lmn/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-03+11%3A23%3A29+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=d5636693-e50e-412c-ad88-bd0f06438589&secure%5Btoken%5D=fa05e681b1ea4ddb7b0baf8b16ad1b8328520ee7a5f00e2b1fd8f58d95dcc67b&format=llm_user) ## LMN Features **Agentic AI - Landscape Design** - Autonomous Task Execution - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration ## Top LMN Alternatives - [RealGreen by WorkWave](https://www.g2.com/products/realgreen-by-workwave/reviews) - 4.1/5.0 (68 reviews) - [Vectorworks Landmark](https://www.g2.com/products/vectorworks-landmark/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (54 reviews) - [Land F/X](https://www.g2.com/products/land-f-x/reviews) - 4.2/5.0 (15 reviews)
