We use it for our Handyman business and it has served us well. The interface is user-friendly and the software is bug-free compared to some others that are far more expensive. This is a great entry-level software for new business owners but it also has the ability to grow with you for a long time. It's quite adaptable to whatever workflow you might have. In addition to managing your daily operations, while it's not a full-blown accounting software, it does have the ability to let you track the costs of time, materials, and other business expenses, which are sometimes enough when you are just starting out. The integration with Strip for processing payments has made getting paid a breeze for us and for our customers. > > **Cons**: There's really not much we haven't enjoyed about this software. It's very functional and quite extensive in terms of it's capabilities. And the customer support is outstanding, the few times I've needed help over the years, I get a thorough response to my chat or email within hours. That is more than can be said for many larger software companies out there. I know of some folks who spend hundreds per month for software to run their field service business, and I don't understand why, as Yardbook's functionality on par with any of them I have investigated. > > It's been a pleasure to use the software and to interact with the company. This was a great software for us on the free tier as we were starting our handyman service and while every penny counted. It was able to grow with us as our revenue grew, and new features continue to be added that make it highly unlikely we'll switch any time soon. It's a fully functional customer relationship management system, scheduling and field service application, and billing system all rolled into one. We're thrilled to have Yardbook as our partner as we enter into our second year in business. You cannot beat the price point for the functionality you receive. ----- ### "Great starter program" — 4.0/5 > **Sean** | *25 November 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Free system that was a great way to start business. Really good at dispatching. Helped with route planning and maximizing efficiency > > **Cons**: No integration with Quickbooks. Needs an app that crews can look at. I printed off sheets to give to crews > > Very good. It was a great program to start the business with. The free trial version was adequate for me for 4 years and I only upgraded to reduce admin time. ----- ### "No response on random weekly account deletion." — 1.0/5 > **Siewart** | *15 April 2025* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Looks nice, free guest trial is nice. Zapier connection looks promising. Just wish I could try and use more of it. > > **Cons**: Doesnt respond on my emails. Trying to make an account but its get deleted within a week and cant figure out why and the yardbook guys dont respond either. > > Softwar is nice, but the staff doesnt respond to why my account gets deleted. So that I find a pity as I would have liked it more if I could use and start intergrating it. ----- ### "Yardbook is fantastic" — 5.0/5 > **matt** | *14 April 2023* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Most of yardbook's features are free to the landscaper/lawncare company which, for a new company that is just starting, money is everything and to be able to present professionalism with a software like Yardbook, it was invaluable. > > **Cons**: No real cons other than the payment processing company they use for online payments is very expensive.. > > Although I have other software that I use for different things, I still refer back to Yardbook from time to time. I find it necessary at least once a day ----- ### "Great Value, Great Service, Great CRM for our Business\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *24 August 2020* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy of use, Competitively priced, Fit our Industry needs and has a pretty nice App for our field technicians. From lead to signup, scheduling and managing operations, auto invoice and payment reminders and tracking sales revenue. It is very robust and touches pretty much everything you could need I think. > > **Cons**: I wish it was a bit more customizable in regards to how we email our clients. Some kind of mailchimp type feature. We need to be able to have multiple templates and html graphics/photos for different emails we send out for different reasons so we can just select and auto-populate that template in when needed vs having to copy from MS word and paste. Better lead generation/organization tools like HubSpot would be a real big plus too. > > Yardbook is our go to software to run our business. It does pretty much everything we need it to except we don't use it for our books, we use Quickbooks. I think it can do that somehow but we have kept separate because we feel it is more accurate. Overall it is a juggernaut of features for the price and we are very happy with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and his team at Yardbook. They have consistently improved and listened to us and we have grown and our needs have changed. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/250683/yardbook?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/250683/yardbook) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
