I've used ADKAD for several years and have saved hundreds of dollars over other programs to help me with invoicing, scheduling and keeping track of my customers. Would highly recommend to any landscape management company.

And then it was said, by Ted.
that Adkad took 5 support staff and 2 Programmers.
And with them, fed the needs of 5000 Lawn Care professionals, and their families.
And then turned the water from the Irrigation System, into Ethanol-Free 91 octane unleaded.
Great review Ted, bless you.

No customizable ability on forms
No customizable ability on forms. Clicking ok after every change or adding items. Pesticide reporting convoluted. No letter merging. Not leaving on last customer. Once in a customer should be able to do all necessary work, payments charges bills etc

Hi Gene,
We started a new Contract, Letter, and Pesticide Report generator for the next version of GroundsKeeper Pro but yanked it back out because it was going to be way too complicated for the average user. The code is there but will be unavailable until we can come up with some better ideas. Kinda like a ghost in the machine. We haven't given up on it, and you will probably see it in a version somewhere down the road.
Changing to a save on close instead of a save button, (which programmatically is easier), is something that we're not sure the bulk of our customers are ready for. Some screens have the feature, but it can be a dangerous thing if you're all thumbs. But it is something we are considering.
You will like the new Quick Launch buttons in the soon to be released series 8 GroundsKeeper Pro. You will be able to bounce between screens with the focus on the last customer selected.

There are things that I wish this would do. And having to pay money to just change my address or phone number is ridiculous. I wish I could bulk email many bills at once to one person instead of several separate emails to that one person.

Hey John,
Not quite sure why a person would get more than 1 invoice for a billing period, but you obviously have some special needs here. Give us a call to discuss it, maybe we can find some kind of workaround.
Here's the reason for the address and or phone change. I hope it clarifies the process and changes your mind.
Our registration process allows the software to be used on multiple computers without having to purchase multiple copies for new or additional computers, being that it is registered to a person, and not to a computer, as is many other software products. This process not only protects our company from software piracy but also protects the end-user from theft of their company data from their employees. About 15% of the address change requests that are processed turn out to be fraudulent due mainly to a partnership breakup, or from a former employee who has decided to start their own business. In this scenario, the person making the request poses as the registered user to be able to change the company info to their own. We can only verify that the person making the request is the actual registered user by requiring supporting documentation as proof. The overwhelming majority of end-users prefer this type of registration to protect their data and to avoid having to pay for the same software product multiple times. The $25 fee we charge, recovers only a portion of the actual labor and material costs associated with issuing a new registration number, IE. Printing, mailing, postage, and correspondence.

Poor set up of entering for the month
Really helped me organize and send everything nicely with billing. In my opinion, the way you enter in the dates is terrible. You have to individually type in every date instead of being able to do every cut for the entire month at once. There is a wizard part, but you never do every yard every week on the same day, so it’s not a benefit at all. I have asked about it and they disagree and say the program isn’t set up for that. I strongly disagree.
Response from Adkad TechnologiesNov 2, 2019
Hi Greg, Not quite sure what it is that you are trying to do. Also not understanding why or how you would enter all of your cuts for an entire month at once. You're correct there is a Wizzard to automate posting let's say an entire day's work with one click. Why wouldn't that work for you? Give us a call so that we can figure this out.
