Features

Everything your business runs on, in one place

Built for businesses with people on the road: the schedule, the team, the customers and the money.

Easy scheduling

Day, week, month and crew views. Drag jobs onto the calendar, set up recurring work and keep unscheduled jobs in one list.

Crews and staff

Group your team into crews, assign each job to the right person, and give everyone their own login.

Your team kept in the loop

Staff are emailed when a job is assigned, moved or cancelled, plus a summary of their day's schedule.

Reminders the day before

Customers get an email reminder the day before you arrive, with the time and address. Fewer missed appointments.

Quotes and tax invoices

PDF quotes and tax invoices with your logo, ABN and GST, emailed in a couple of clicks. Finish a job and the invoice is filled in for you.

Xero integration

Invoices you send are copied into Xero with the client, line items and GST. No double entry. Team plan and above.

Google review requests

After a job is done, customers get a friendly email asking for a Google review, so more locals can find you.

SMS remindersComing soon

Text-message reminders for customers and staff are on the way. Until then, reminders go out by email.

How it works

Four steps to an easier week

  1. 1

    Add your clients and jobs

    Bring in your client list, their properties and the services you offer. Import clients from a spreadsheet if you have one.

  2. 2

    Schedule and assign your team

    Drag jobs onto the calendar and assign them to staff or crews. They're emailed their schedule automatically.

  3. 3

    Keep clients updated automatically

    Customers get a reminder the day before each visit, and a review request once the job is done.

  4. 4

    Invoice and track your work

    Mark a job done and the invoice is ready to send. Track what's paid and overdue, with invoices copied into Xero.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How does scheduling work?

Jobs live on a calendar you can view by day, week, month or crew. Drag a job to a new time or day, assign it to a staff member or crew, and set it to repeat for regular clients. Jobs without a date wait in an unscheduled list until you're ready.

How do the email reminders work?

Turn on customer reminders in Settings and, every morning, Crew & Grounds emails each customer who has a job the next day, with the date, time and address. Each customer is reminded once per job, and you can edit the wording.

Does it work with Xero?

Yes. On the Team plan and above, connect your Xero organisation and every invoice you send is copied into Xero with the client, line items and GST. Edits and voids are kept in step, and payments sync both ways: payments you record are added to Xero, and payments recorded in Xero (for example from your bank feed) mark the invoice paid here.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Crew & Grounds runs in the web browser on any phone, tablet or computer, so you and your team can check the schedule and update jobs on site. There's nothing to download from an app store.

Can I send SMS reminders?

Not yet. SMS reminders are coming soon. Today, reminders and notifications are sent by email.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. Start a free trial without a card. When you're ready, choose a plan by team size. Plans renew monthly or yearly and you can cancel any time.

Is my data secure?

Your data is stored in Australia (Sydney) and kept separate from every other business. Sign-in supports two-factor authentication with an authenticator app, and you can sign out of every device at once.
