The honest comparison

ProBase is free. Until it rains.

ProBase costs $0. But it has no rain delay, no offline mode, and no accounting sync. When a storm hits at 6am, MowGo moves your whole route in one tap.

The rain delay test

It’s 6am. Storm’s rolling in. What does your software do?

ProBase has zero weather features. You’re opening every client, rescheduling every stop by hand — 20, 30, 40 texts — while the rain starts. MowGo users tap one button and the whole route shifts to tomorrow. Clients get notified automatically.

That difference can save a whole day of revenue.

ProBase — $0/mo
Open 22 client records. Reschedule each job by hand. Text each client. Pray you didn’t miss one.
MowGo — free tier
One button. Every job shifts to tomorrow. Clients notified. Done in 3 seconds.

Honest answer: choose ProBase if…
  • You’re a solo operator who never needs to reschedule for weather, and $0/mo forever matters more than anything else.
  • You want marketplace job leads — ProBase can feed you work from their marketplace (and takes a cut of those jobs).
  • You run a pool service — they cover chemical logging and water testing.
  • You never work in the rain, never lose signal, and don’t need accounting sync.

If that’s you — ProBase is legitimately free and you should use it. MowGo is built for crews who lose a day of revenue every time it rains, and who want software that isn’t trying to be a marketplace.

Works in the field

MowGo's installable web app keeps working offline, so your schedule stays available when signal drops.

Install on every screen

Works on iPhone, Android, and desktop as an installable home-screen app (PWA).

Flat fee, not a take-rate

ProBase makes money when you take marketplace jobs. MowGo charges a flat monthly fee — your revenue and your data aren’t the product.

Try MowGo free. Rain delay included.

5 clients free forever. No credit card. When it rains, you’ll see why we built this.
