Comparison
Granum alternative for the plant health care side.
Granum is the company behind SingleOps for tree care, LMN for landscapers, and Greenius for crew training. If you searched for a Granum alternative you are probably on SingleOps or looking at it, and the question is what it leaves out. For the office, not much. For the plant health care work itself, the diagnosis, the rate, the label check, everything.
Jobber sync
ConnectedTwelve Jobber event types are handled, and each one can be forwarded to your own webhook endpoint.
Short version
Granum's products will schedule the PHC visit, track that a chemical was used, and train the crew on best practices. None of them will look at a tree and say what is wrong, what to inject, how many milliliters per inch, or whether the label allows it on that host this month. That is the gap PHC Rx fills.
Granum
A software group selling three products to landscaping and arborist businesses in North America. SingleOps is the tree care business management system: tree inventory, estimating, time-based scheduling and routing, crew work orders, field check-out, job costing, in three tiers from Essential to Premier. LMN is the equivalent for landscape companies, in Starter, Professional, and Enterprise tiers. Greenius is employee training content, including PHC best practices, sold alongside. Granum lists Tree Care and Plant Health Care as an industry it serves and describes pest and disease tracking and plant health monitoring inside SingleOps.
Best for: a company that does landscape maintenance and tree care under one roof and wants one vendor for operations software and crew training across both.
PHC Rx
Diagnosis, species-specific treatment, label check, and a prescription the client approves. It sits beside your scheduling tool rather than replacing it.
Best for: companies that sell plant health care and need the clinical record behind it.

Choose Granum if
- You run landscape maintenance and tree care as one company and want LMN and SingleOps from one vendor.
- Crew training is a line item and you want it from the same place as the operations software.
- The pain is estimating, dispatch, and getting paid across several crews.
- You want job costing across the whole business.
Choose PHC Rx if
- You sell plant health care and need the diagnosis, the rate per inch, and the label check documented, not just tracked.
- Your PHC tech decides treatments from experience and you want that decision on the record with a confidence number.
- You already have SingleOps or another scheduler and want to add the clinical layer instead of replacing anything.
- You want to try it for a week without a sales call.
Where Granum is the right call
A company with a landscape division and a tree division, both with crews, both quoting and invoicing every day, gets real value from one vendor that covers both with matching systems and trains the crews on top. Granum built the group for exactly that customer. If the pain is running two divisions from two spreadsheets, that is where the money should go.
What it does not do, and why it matters for PHC
Granum describes SingleOps as tracking pests and diseases and monitoring plant health. Tracking is a field on a record. The tech still decides in the driveway that it is scale and not sooty mold from aphids, still picks the product from memory, still pulls the rate off a PDF, and the office types it on a work order. Greenius can teach best practices in a course; it cannot check the plan for this tree on this day. Nothing checked whether the host is on the label, whether the timing window is open, or whether the tree was injected last spring.
That check is the part PHC Rx runs, after a diagnosis with a confidence number and a rate from the calculator, before the client sees a price.

Running both
PHC Rx syncs two-way with Jobber and has a REST API with webhooks. Companies on SingleOps keep the office there and run the PHC trees through PHC Rx; the prescription number goes on the work order and the clinical record lives on the tree. A direct SingleOps sync is on the list; ask and it moves up.
Pricing side by side

FAQ
Questions arborists ask
Is Granum the same as SingleOps?
Granum is the parent company. SingleOps is its tree care product, LMN is its landscape product, and Greenius is its training product. Searches for a Granum alternative are usually about SingleOps.
Is PHC Rx a replacement for SingleOps or LMN?
Not for estimating, scheduling, work orders, or invoicing. It replaces the notebook, the rate PDF, and the guesswork on the plant health care side. Companies that need both run both.
Does PHC Rx integrate with Granum products?
Not directly today. It syncs two-way with Jobber and has a public REST API and webhooks. If a SingleOps sync matters to you, tell us; demand moves it up the list.
Does PHC Rx include training like Greenius?
It includes in-app courses on diagnosis and plant health care with certificates, aimed at the PHC tech rather than the whole company. It is not a general crew training platform.
Can I try PHC Rx while keeping SingleOps?
Yes. The 7-day trial does not touch your existing system. Run one property through the diagnosis and prescription flow and see whether the client approves faster.
