Cost for 10 users a month

$648 a month on LMN Professional for 10 users. Counted as one office user and the rest technicians in the field. LMN Starter might cost less, but no overage price is published, so it could not be priced past its allowance.

$648/mo USD, billed monthly*

granum.com/lmn/pricing

What it costs your crewYes

Cost for one person a month

A one-person business pays the LMN Starter price of $297 a month, the cheapest published plan; it is a plan-level fee that already includes one office or crew lead license plus five crew member licenses, so a solo operator cannot buy a smaller bundle, and it covers scheduling, estimating, invoicing and card payments through LMN Pay.

What it costs your crewNo

Promotion and regular price

none: the figures shown are starting monthly prices billed monthly, not a promotional rate and not a yearly price divided into months, and the page publishes no end date or later regular price.

What it costs your crewYes

Quote only

The top plan carries no published figure at all: the comparison table prints a sales contact in place of a price, and the plan card says only that it begins at a hundred users with extra licences charged.

What the price is based on

Each plan is a flat monthly fee that buys a fixed bundle of licences rather than a price per person, and more licences are sold on top at a fee the vendor does not publish.

Includes 1 office/crew lead license & 5 crew member licenses. Additional licenses are available for a fee. Price in USD.

granum.com/lmn/pricingChecked

What it costs your crewPartly

Adding a user

Adding people is possible on every plan, but the vendor states only that extra licences cost a fee and never prints that fee, so the cost of a sixth or a twentieth person cannot be worked out from the site.

Prices are in USD, additional licenses cost extra, and plans include a one-time onboarding fee.

granum.com/lmnChecked

What it costs your crewYes

Setup or onboarding fee

Every published price carries an asterisk pointing to a one-time onboarding fee that comes before the monthly rate, and the vendor does not say anywhere what that fee amounts to.

*After a one-time onboarding fee

granum.com/lmn/pricingChecked

What it costs your crewPartly

Card processing rate

The vendor confirms it charges a fee on every transaction through its own payment service and lets you pass that fee to the customer, but the actual rate is only given once you apply or talk to its team.

LMN Pay charges a transparent processing fee per transaction — no monthly minimums, no hidden costs. Exact rates are available when you connect your…

The trades it is built forYes

Lawn care and landscaping

The vendor serves lawn and grounds work in depth, with its own pages for full-service, design and build, maintenance, tree care and snow work, and it states plainly that it builds for no other trade.

LMN is the only operations platform built for landscapers, arborists, and snow/ice businesses.

granum.com/resources/lmn-integrationsChecked

The trades it is built forYes

Features for one trade

Estimates are built from the firm's own operating budget with price lists, material and labour calculators and production rates, which is the pricing method this trade uses rather than a flat-rate repair book.

Build your bids from your LMN budget, that includes labor, materials, equipment, and overhead so every proposal is priced to hit target margin.

Running the dayYes

Schedule and calendar

The office drags jobs onto a calendar, routes crews from the same screen and can reshuffle the day for weather or call-backs, with the change pushed straight out to the field.

Drag-and-drop jobs onto the calendar and route crews in minutes. Instantly adjust for weather, delays, or call-backs without breaking the day.

granum.com/lmnChecked

Running the dayYes

Technician app

Crews open the day's work in a phone app that carries job notes, site photos, checklists and goals, and they update hours, statuses and materials from the same screen; it runs in English and Spanish.

LMN Crew makes it easy for your entire crew to see critical job notes, site photos, checklists, and efficiency goals.

granum.com/lmn/lmn-crewChecked

Running the dayYes

Route planning

Route optimisation is listed against all three plans and is described as ordering each crew's stops to cut the driving time between jobs, so it is not held back for a higher tier.

Ensure your crews are taking the most efficient route to cut down drive time between jobs.

granum.com/lmn/pricingChecked

Running the dayYes

Where the trucks are

Live crew maps and location stamps are ticked on every plan including the cheapest, so watching where crews are during the day is not a paid extra here.

GPS tracking and crew maps show where your crews are during the day

granum.com/lmn/schedulingChecked

Running the dayYes

Texts to customers

Texts go out to clients ahead of a visit and proposals can be sent by text as well; the vendor does not describe an automatic on-the-way message carrying a live arrival time.

Share proposals via text and keep clients informed with messages directly from your business ahead of visits.

granum.com/lmn/pricingChecked

Running the dayYes

Maintenance plans and recurring jobs

Repeat work is scheduled as recurring jobs rather than re-entered, and billing can be staged across a season or by milestone, which is how maintenance contracts are handled here.

Schedule recurring and one-off work without spreadsheets. Adjust on the fly and keep crews moving.

granum.com/lmn/starterChecked

Running the dayYes

Checklists, photos and signatures

Crews work through equipment and material checklists and attach site notes and photos to the job from the app; signatures are described on contracts and proposals rather than as an on-site sign-off.

On the page: Scheduling and Timesheets list of what crews get

granum.com/lmn/schedulingChecked

Running the dayYes

Works without signal

The crew app keeps working without a signal: records open, clock-ins register and notes and photos are captured, and this is ticked on all three plans rather than the top one.

Access job records, clock in and out, take notes and photos, and record critical details without cell service

Quotes and getting paidYes

Quotes and estimates

Clients receive a proposal they can read, comment on and sign in their own portal, and a signed contract is turned into a job plan that is pushed out to the crew automatically.

Customers can receive, approve, and sign proposals directly in the customer portal.

Price book and options

Price lists for services and materials are editable and sit on every plan, with calculators for material and labour behind them; tiered good-better-best options are not described anywhere.

Invoices

Invoices are raised from the completed job, can be sent in bulk and stay matched to the work; the vendor does not say whether unpaid invoices get automatic chasing reminders.

Generate invoices from approved work and send them digitally for a professional client experience.

Quotes and getting paidYes

Card and bank payments

Customers pay by card or straight from their bank on any device through a pay-now link or the portal, and this is ticked on all three plans rather than sold as an upgrade.

Customers can pay by credit card or directly from their bank account (ACH).

Fast payouts

Money reaches the bank in about two working days and every payout is traceable inside the product, but no same-day or next-day option is offered and no fee for faster money is published.

Most payouts arrive within 2 business days. You can track every payout in real time directly inside LMN.

Parts and inventory

Material stock and vendor bills are tracked, with crews able to photograph receipts for the office to allocate against jobs; stock held on each individual truck is not described separately.

In a few simple steps, you can track all of your inventory materials.

Online booking

Clients can send in a service request through their portal, which is not the same as picking a slot from your website or a search listing; no booking widget or search-engine booking is described.

Timesheets

Crews punch in and out in the app, hours attach to the job, and the vendor states the hours feed its accounting partner for payroll with a spreadsheet export as the other route out.

Several locations

Running several branches from one account is named only against the dearest plan, which also starts at a hundred users, so a two-branch firm on the cheaper plans does not get it.

Job costing and reports

Estimated against actual hours and costs are compared while the crew is still on site, but the live version of this is named as an addition on the middle plan rather than included at entry level.

Once the job starts, real-time job costing compares estimated and actual hours and costs (e.g., materials) while your crew is still working on site.

LMN Starter connects to QuickBooks Online. LMN Professional and Enterprise connect to both QuickBooks Online and Desktop, so you can keep the version you already use.

Zapier and API

Other software can be wired in through a connector service reaching thousands of apps, but that sits on the middle plan and above and no open way in of the vendor's own is documented.
