Granular helping farmers manage data **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Duane H. | co-owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2022 **What do you like best about Granular?** I have been using Granular Software for several years. The evolution of its many features has been fast and accurate to my needs. I have never seen such an involved group effort. They care about their product and show effort to improve it. **What do you dislike about Granular?** I'm not too fond that most of the people at Granular don't have a farming background. However, this does not mean they are afraid of learning ways to better their product. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** This product provides innovative satellite imagery for my fields. This software allows me to allocate my scouting effort better. I also like how I can compare products, planting dates, etc across my operation. ### 2. Pleased, but it has it's flaws **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan R. | Office Manager/Controller, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2020 **What do you like best about Granular?** I really like the field and crop plans. This allows us to put together extensive plans for the upcoming years so that we stay on track and can see when we veer off our plans. I also enjoy the plan, forecast, and actual function. Your initial plan (budget) gets updated as actual processes get completed with the actual costs being spent. By the end of the year the forecast is updated enough to know exactly where you're going to end up. **What do you dislike about Granular?** I don't like the grain inventory/management function at all. In fact it's so bad for our operation that we have to keep inventory in a completely different piece of software. I also don't like all of the workarounds that we've had to implement to make it work for our operation. I understand no software can completely cover the variety that farming acoss the globe encounters, but I wish it was a little more flexible rather than ridgid with workarounds. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** The main problem that we solved was knowing our costs as the season progressed. Before we were always waiting for end of the year reports with our accounting software. We're getting up to date information that is allowing us to make huge management decisions. It's allowing us to keep up to date information as tasks are getting completed in the field. Also, we can look back at information and see exact inputs that we've been putting to every field. We didn't have that detail at our fingetips with that much ease before. We had the information but it was buried in multiple spreadsheets. **Official Response from Marketing Accounts:** > We're definitely a work-in-progress, Ryan! But at the end of the day, we're happy to hear that Granular can help you know exactly where you're going to end up at the end of the season! Sorry to hear that you need to keep your inventory in a different piece of software, hopefully we can bridge that gap in the near future. And appreciate your honest review! ### 3. Granular Ag helps your farm business run efficiently **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Paul K. | Extension Field Agronomist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2020 **What do you like best about Granular?** I really like the feature that allows you to create work orders that assure the commercial fertilizer/ag chemical applications are applied at the correct amount to the correct field. I also like the way you can track prepaid inputs and the inputs that I will apply myself. **What do you dislike about Granular?** it was a little difficult to get the hang of it initially - but the Customer Success Managers and the support group were really helpful. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have improved efficiency by the use of work orders - that assure me that commercial applicators in the correct field. And I have increased efficiency by the use of the smart phone app that allows me to record grain inventory on the go in the fall. **Official Response from Marketing Accounts:** > When you can find efficiencies, that translates directly to the bottom line! Thank you for the glowing review, Paul! We appreciate your business, and are grateful you stuck with us to get the hang of things! ### 4. Great for Diversified Operations **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Emmaline L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2020 **What do you like best about Granular?** Granular allows us to keep and organize all of our field operations and data in one place. It helps eliminate Excel spreadsheets and is accessible from anywhere, not just the office and desktop. **What do you dislike about Granular?** The program contains so much information, so it is sometimes difficult to know where to go to get the data or analysis you are looking for. Therea are multiple ways to navigate to get to different pages and information and it can be a little overwhelming to learn where everything is located. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** Granular helps keep all of our data easily accessible. It is much faster to get information regarding inventories (of crops and chemicals), when fieldwork was completed. information on varieties, spray program, planting data, harvest information and more. For our employees, it helps them know what tasks they are expected to be doing, when and where the fields are located. It has been very helpful for new employees to learn how to navigate to new fields. It saves a lot of time when inputting harvest data because employees can help assist the managers with input tasks. ### 5. Great to understand my farms financials at a field level. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Craig L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2020 **What do you like best about Granular?** Once the setup process is complete, then all the field related data such as variety and chemical usage rates, and yields along with the related cost are assigned to each field from my tractor monitor to Granular with no work on my part. All I do is make sure that nothing transferred that looks out of place. The financial results of my work are immediate and easy to see. **What do you dislike about Granular?** Not sure this is a dislike, but I will be honest. Granular makes you spend a lot of time planning your intentions for each field for the whole year. This is something you can do during those cold winter months, but when your done, you now have a comprehensive plan for your whole farm and all the decision are made for your employees when spring rolls around. Also, you now have a budget and know what everything is going to cost you, plus you have a report that you can take to your suppliers to order what you need as opposed to guessing. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm writing this in November when I'm trying to purchase seed, chemicals, and fertilizer for next year. It is a great feeling to know that I'm getting organized now for next year. I don't need a seed spreadsheet, chemical spreadsheet, and a fertilizer spreadsheet. When I'm done I can print one report and I'm done. Also, I can review my fields by "net profit per acre" instead of "yield per acre", and isn't that a more important number? **Official Response from Marketing Accounts:** > Honesty is the best policy, Craig! Thank you for your review; we know it takes some operations a little bit of time to get set up but we're firm believers in good data in translates to the best insights out. We're so happy to hear that you are able to better see your farm financials on a field-by-field level with Granular. Thank you for your business! ### 6.

The Task Manager feature is an excellent tool for farm managers to organize labor and equipment and communicate instructions with the farm equipment operators. by far the best feature from Granular is the customer service.

Granular Changed the way I viewed our Farm **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brooke Ellen W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2020 **What do you like best about Granular?** Granular has everything I need to make farming decisions. The information is usually all one click away if not right there on the Dashboard page. That is probably my favorite feature. It has an overview of the farm, from harvest progress to contract progress. **What do you dislike about Granular?** I do not like that the information from Granular agronomy does not communicate with granular business. Also, there needs to be a better way to enter loads coming to the grain bins and going out. I hate entering loads from fields and then entering every weigh slip from the elevator, and then also having to make a separate contract for the grain that is not on an original contract. Sometimes the prices change throughout the day, I could have to make 10 different contracts for one day of hauling in order to get the pricing correct. I wish there was an option as you were entering the grain transfer in to put the price for that specific load. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have solved the problem of knowing our breakeven within seconds instead of having to take an hour to figure it out. That is also a major benefit when contracting. It is very easy to contract knowing at what dollar amount our farm is making money. **Official Response from Marketing Accounts:** > WOW, Brooke! "Granular changed the way I viewed our farm," is the ultimate compliment we could receive. We've passed your feedback along to our Product Development team for consideration. Really great points and we've got our work cut out for us! Thank you for your positive, and honest review. We appreciate your business. ### 9.

Every question I have is answered promptly, and solutions to new problems are created. **What do you dislike about Granular?** Granular Business is really only the $ side of the operation. I wish there is more agronomy blended in, such as rainfall and soil maps. But there's also a program for that.

Great FMS, Great Support Team, and a Huge Value to Our Operation. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Farming | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 03, 2018 **What do you like best about Granular?** User friendly software program and mobile app. The support team is always there when you need them. They are growing and updating to grower needs. **What do you dislike about Granular?** We wish they could have an accounting side, so we don't have to do double-entry. Also, if they could have something in place to reconcile inputs like other FMS, that would help. **Recommendations to others considering Granular:** It save lots of time, and should improve your operation once things get going. It may take a while to get use to at first especially with the older crowd. I would advise having a sole administrator for the app, as it takes a person on our team to audit the information coming in as well as making sure things are getting entered. **What problems is Granular solving and how is that benefiting you?** We know our costs per acre, and can look at the analytics much faster than using older systems. No more spreadsheets galore strung across the networks that people may forget where they stored them too.
