Get to know our partners: projects 'take off' with LandOne Takeoff

May 21, 2020 11:16:00 AM / by LandscapeHub

This past fall, we partnered with LandOne Takeoff Service to make project management even easier for LandscapeHub users. The cloud-based software was founded by Josh Martin, who, after years of working in the green industry, wanted to provide a more simple, easy-to-use, cost-effective solution for managing the bid process. He looked around and found nothing, so he built LandOne to make bidding and materials acquisition easier. (Sound familiar?)

The solution looked great to us, so LandscapeHub decided to work with Josh and LandOne to combine the best of both companies through phases of integration which will benefit you, the users of both LandscapeHub and LandOne.

The first phase of integration allows LandOne users to send their takeoff lists to LandscapeHub directly from the LandOne software and quickly receive a free quote from LandscapeHub for the materials listed on the takeoff list (shown below). No jumping from program to email and back. A click of a button and the list is sent for quoting! To use this feature, though, you’ll need to sign up for a LandOne account.
