Software for landscaping business owners, not landscape design

In short: FieldStacker is software for landscaping business owners. It runs estimates, deposits, change orders, crew schedules, multi-day installs, maintenance plans, invoices and job profit. It does not draw designs: there are no CAD tools, 3D renders or plant libraries.

Search for "landscaping software" and most results are design tools for drawing a backyard. That is a real need, but it isn't the one that keeps a landscaping company profitable. The hard part comes after the drawing: turning it into a price the customer signs, getting a deposit before you order 14 pallets of pavers, keeping three crews busy across a four-day install and the weekly maintenance route, and knowing at the end whether the job made money.

That is what FieldStacker does. Keep the design tool you like for the drawing. Bring the price into FieldStacker and run the job from there.

The office

Landscape business management software on one screen

The office home screen shows what needs you now: new requests, invoices past due, finished jobs waiting for an invoice, estimates to follow up and approved estimates to schedule. Beside it are today's jobs with their status and where each crew is, if they've turned on location. Money owed sits at the bottom, so a slow-paying commercial account doesn't drift for a month.

  • Approved estimates waiting to be scheduled
  • Unsent invoices and money owed
  • The week vs last week

Selling the job

From the drawing to a signed estimate

Build the estimate on your phone in the customer's yard or at the desk. Automatic lines add the labor that goes with a material, so 400 square feet of pavers brings its install line with it. Add a discount with a reason, set the deposit, and the customer signs on your phone or scans a QR code to sign and pay later. You can see when they opened it, and estimate follow-ups go out by themselves if they go quiet.

  • Your own price list, searchable
  • Automatic lines for labor and materials
  • E-sign at the door or by QR code
  • Automatic estimate follow-ups

After the job

See what the install really made

When a job is finished, its summary shows what the customer paid, how they paid, what the materials cost and what you kept, with crew time beside it. Set your labor cost and you see true profit per job. Over a season that tells you whether small planting jobs are worth the trailer trip, or whether you've been pricing retaining walls too low.

  • Materials, labor and expenses per job
  • A job profit report
  • Invoices and payments synced to QuickBooks Online

Landscaping business software questions

Is FieldStacker landscape design software?

No. FieldStacker has no drawing tools, 3D renders or plant library. It runs the business side of a landscaping company: estimates, deposits, crew schedules, multi-day installs, maintenance plans, invoices and job profit. Keep your design tool for the drawing, and bring the price into FieldStacker.

What is the best landscape business management software for a small company?

For one to a few crews, pick something that handles both install jobs and recurring maintenance, shows job profit and has a price you can read. FieldStacker starts at $30/mo with crew free. LMN and Service Autopilot publish prices that start higher, and Aspire quotes on request; we list them on our best lawn care software page.

Can I take a deposit before a hardscape job?

Yes. Add a deposit as a percent or a dollar amount to the estimate. The customer signs and pays the deposit, and the balance is invoiced when the job is done. If they add a retaining wall halfway through, send a change order with its own deposit for them to approve.

Does landscape company software handle maintenance contracts?

Yes. Put a maintenance customer on a service plan, weekly through yearly, and each visit lands on the schedule as its own job and invoice. A card on file can be charged after each visit.

Does it work with QuickBooks?

With QuickBooks Online, yes. Finished invoices and payments sync automatically and update in place, and expenses, job parts and mileage can sync too. QuickBooks Desktop is not supported.

Can my crews use it on their phones?

Yes. Crew members you add as technicians are free. They see their jobs, tick checklists, add photos and notes, and clock in and out.
