Housecall Pro was built for every type of home service business — HVAC, plumbing, electrical, cleaning, and yes, lawn care. That means you're paying for a platform designed for industries that aren't yours. Grassr is built specifically for lawn care at a fraction of the cost.
No credit card. No spam.
Housecall Pro covers a lot of ground — literally every home service trade. That breadth comes with tradeoffs for lawn care crews.
Housecall Pro serves plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, cleaners, and lawn care all with the same interface. That means features like “parts ordering” and “warranty tracking” that you'll never touch but still pay for.
Housecall Pro starts at $59/month per user and goes up to $109/month. They've raised prices multiple times. A 3-person crew costs $2,124-$3,924/year. Grassr is $99/year total.
Housecall Pro sends invoices that customers have to manually pay. Grassr charges the card on file the moment you complete the job — no invoice, no waiting, no chasing.
Weather is a daily reality for lawn care. Housecall Pro doesn't have a one-tap rain day feature. You have to reschedule each job individually. Grassr lets you reschedule your entire day with one tap and notifies customers automatically.

It depends on your business. Housecall Pro is better for multi-trade operations with 20+ employees that need estimating, marketing automation, and enterprise reporting. Grassr is better for lawn care crews of 1-10 people who want instant payments, simple scheduling, and a flat $99/year price with no per-seat fees.
