ArborSmart
What it is
ArborSmart is business management software for tree care companies, covering leads, estimates, crews, fleet, jobs, invoices, and customer access. Its estimate builder creates branded PDFs with service templates, line items, job sketches, and digital signatures; approved estimates can become jobs. Scheduling includes day, week, and month views, crew swim lanes, and drag-and-drop assignments. Fleet tools track vehicles, fuel, maintenance reminders, driver hours, and digital vehicle inspection reports. Crews can use geofenced time tracking, job photos, inspections, and customer sign-offs, including offline with automatic synchronization when coverage returns. A customer portal shows jobs, appointments, invoices, and payment history. Businesses can record cash, check, card, bank-transfer, and partial payments. The software runs on Android, iOS, and the web. Solo costs $60 a month for one crew, while Growing costs $250 a month for two to five crews. Established pricing for six or more crews is custom. A 14-day trial is offered.
