“LMN has helped us grow our company by 36% to $5.3M at a 20% net profit last year. LMN’s Budgeting and estimating modules allow our company to grow profitably and predictably with process and control.”

“Ten years ago, before we had LMN, we had close to 30 employees and we did about $1,000,000 in revenue a year. Ten years later, we have 10 employees and we do $3,000,000 in revenue – and that’s a direct result of using LMN.”
Jason Cromley

“From 1998 – 2010, we didn’t have a budget. LMN changed that. We went from asking our accountant if we did well at the end of the year to knowing every project’s profitability.”

Top 3 reasons companies choose LMN over Aspire
Pricing that doesn’t penalize success
Aspire’s pricing structure is designed to charge you more as your business grows – meaning that as your revenue grows, so do your software costs.
We don’t think success should cost you money.
With LMN, you’re charged a flat subscription fee with a per-user cost. As you grow, your software costs stay consistent.
LMN simplifies your workday
The last thing you need is a complicated interface that takes ages to learn. Some Aspire customers have to hire full-time software specialists to keep things running.
We designed LMN to be simple and intuitive, so you can easily manage multiple locations with your in-house team.
And if you do need help, our top-rated customer service team responds to 96% of inquiries in under a minute.
We understand landscaping
LMN is designed for landscapers. We understand your pain points and frustrations because we’re landscapers too.
That’s why every new and updated feature is fine-tuned to the problems you face every day.
And because we don’t worry about other industries – like cleaning and janitorial services – every update makes your life easier.
