Switching from Housecall Pro

On Housecall Pro but all-in on lawn care? Switch to purpose-built.

Housecall Pro is a strong general home-services tool with a plumbing/HVAC lean. Lawnager is built for lawn care — AI quoting on every plan (HCP’s AI receptionist is a $100/mo add-on), unlimited users, and a free tier. Import your customers and go.

Switch in three steps

No data lost, no downtime — and you can run both while you decide.

1

Export your customers from Housecall Pro

In Housecall Pro, go to your Customer list and use the export option (Settings → Account → export, or the customer-list CSV download). You’ll get names, contact info, and service addresses.

2

Import into Lawnager

Sign up free, open Settings → Import from Another Platform, choose Housecall Pro, and upload the CSV. Column names map automatically, so your customers and addresses arrive ready to schedule.

3

Run both while you cut over

Quote, schedule, and invoice in Lawnager the same day. Keep HCP through your billing cycle if you want, move daily work over at your pace, and cancel when you’re confident — with no per-seat charge for your crew on Lawnager.

What comes across

  • Customer names and contact info
  • Service addresses
  • Your customer list, ready to schedule
  • Phone and email for reminders

What you gain

  • AI quoting on every plan — HCP’s AI receptionist is a $100/mo add-on
  • Unlimited users on paid plans — no per-seat pricing
  • Neighborhood Blitz door-to-door acquisition — HCP has nothing like it
  • The whole app in Spanish, operator and crew — HCP is English-only

Housecall Pro is excellent for multi-trade home-services businesses and its embedded payments are first-rate. If you run plumbing, HVAC, and lawn under one roof, it may fit better. But if lawn care is your business, Lawnager’s purpose-built workflows, AI on every plan, and free tier are a better home — and the switch is an afternoon.

Common questions about switching

Why switch from Housecall Pro for lawn care?

HCP is built for general home services with a plumbing/HVAC bias. Lawnager is built only for lawn care — road-following routes, recurring visit groups, equipment checklists, chemical compliance, and door-to-door acquisition — plus AI quoting on every plan, which HCP charges extra for.

Will I lose my customer data?

No. The import copies your customers into Lawnager; your HCP account is untouched. Export a CSV, upload it, and your customers and addresses are in Lawnager — keep HCP running until you cancel.

Does Lawnager include AI and payments like HCP?

Yes — AI quoting is on every plan (not a $100/mo add-on), and online card payments run through Stripe. You get the modern tooling without the add-on pricing.

Can I keep HCP while I try Lawnager?

Yes, and it’s the recommended way to switch. Run both side by side, shift your daily work into Lawnager, and cancel HCP when you’re ready.
