Landscaping Time Tracking Software for Crews | PunchPro

Landscaping time tracking software

Time tracking for landscaping crews that move five times a day.

Crews clock in at the first property and switch jobs as they move, with GPS on each punch. Hours roll up by property and cost code, overtime is flagged by Wednesday, and you only pay for people who actually worked that month — so the winter bill shrinks with the crew.

Who it's for

Built for landscaping and lawn care companies with 3 to 100 on the crew.

PunchPro fits if…

  • Crews move between properties and you need hours by property
  • A foreman clocks in the whole crew from one phone
  • Your headcount swings with the season and you don't want to pay for idle users
  • You export hours to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex or Paycom

Look elsewhere if…

  • You need routing, estimating or invoicing in the same tool (PunchPro works alongside those)
  • You need live GPS trails or mileage between properties
  • You bill maintenance contracts straight from the time clock

Also works for…

  • Tree service, irrigation and hardscape crews
  • Snow removal in the off-season on the same account
  • Nursery and shop staff alongside field crews

How it works

Built around how a landscaping week actually runs.

Crew clock-in

One foreman, one phone, the whole crew clocked in.

The foreman clocks the crew in at the first property and switches the job as they move. Each punch carries the property and cost code, with location recorded at the punch, so the office sees hours by property without anyone filling out a sheet.

  • Crew clock-in from a foreman's phone or individual phones
  • Switch property or cost code without clocking out
  • Location on every punch, nothing tracked in between
Hours by property

Know what each property costs you in labor, every week.

Maintenance contracts live or die on labor hours. PunchPro rolls hours up by property and cost code — mowing, cleanup, install, snow — so you can see which accounts are profitable while the season is still running.

  • Hours by property, cost code and crew member
  • Compare estimated vs actual labor per account
  • Export for job costing or your accountant
Seasonal pricing

Pay for the people who worked, not the people on your list.

PunchPro bills $7 per active user — someone who punched, was scheduled or requested time off that month. When the crew drops from 30 in July to 8 in January, so does the bill. No plan changes, no calls.

  • Active users only, calculated each month
  • Seasonal hires onboard from their phone with handbook and I-9 tracked
  • Rehire returning crew without re-entering anything
Payroll prep

Guardrails before you approve. Export to the payroll you already run.

Timecards with missed punches, unexpected overtime or edits are flagged before the period locks, with one-tap fixes and an audit trail. Approved hours export to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex or Paycom, so nothing changes on the payroll side.

  • Configurable guardrails: Off / Warn / Block
  • Flagged timecards surfaced first, bulk approval for the rest
  • Export to QuickBooks, ADP, Paychex, Paycom

Common questions

Landscaping time tracking questions, answered plainly.

Can a foreman clock in the whole crew?

Yes. A foreman can clock the crew in and out and switch the property or cost code for everyone at once from one phone.

Does it track crews between properties?

No. GPS is captured at each punch and shown against the property; routes, mileage and drive time are not recorded.

How does pricing work with seasonal crews?

You pay $7 per active user per month. Crew members who don't punch, aren't scheduled and don't request time off that month aren't billed, so the bill drops in the off-season.

Does PunchPro do routing or invoicing?

No. It handles people, time, scheduling, PTO, HR and payroll prep, and works alongside your landscaping business software.

Can I see labor cost by property?

Yes. Hours roll up by property, cost code and employee, so you can compare estimated and actual labor per account.

How much does it cost for a landscaping company?

$39.99 per month per business plus $7 per active crew member. A 15-person crew in season is $144.99 per month; 14-day free trial, no credit card.
