How to choose a Croptracker alternative
- 1
Check what your bill covers
Compare your actual bill with the work you use. Croptracker says most users subscribe to individual modules annually, with monthly subscriptions available at a premium. Check which modules are on your renewal and whether the cost is tied to users, modules or particular requirements before weighing another option.
- 2
Keep your records yours
Ask where your records live and whether you can take them with you. In Orchard, your records sit in a database you own, and you can export them. If you move from Croptracker, agree which history is included and how imported records will be checked before cutover.
- 3
Fit your rules and fields
List the fields and checks your team actually uses, including spray intervals, harvest history, labour allocations and block reviews. A version built around your operating rules can bring those records together. Keep label and market decisions with your responsible person, since records do not certify produce or compliance.

Plan the move carefully
Do not assume every module moves in one step. The free version supports importing bin inventory from the supported harvest report. Spray history, attachments and other modules need separate mapping, and configured exports need their headings checked. Agree the migration scope and reconcile the results before cutover.
The option that fits
Own the version that fits your business
Orchard is the owned option when your blocks, records and operating rules do not fit a standard setup. Enterprise DNA builds a version around how your business works, brings Croptracker data across, and runs it for you for one setup fee followed by a monthly retainer. You can instead run the free version yourself. Your records sit in a database you own, and you can work with it in plain language without per seat plans.
