EasyFarm: Accounting: single-entry farm bookkeeping (one entry updates all books; no month-close or posting), check writing, inventory in dollars and quantities, tax and bank reports, cost centers in higher editions. Agronomy: crop and field production records with inputs tracked by field, crop, farm and enterprise (Pro Crops and above); no maps or imagery described. Labor: payroll included from the Plus edition up. Mobile: a secondary review (Fit Small Business, 2025) describes an Android-only 'EasyFarmHand' companion app sold separately with no bookkeeping features; the vendor shop page does not list it. Weather/markets/news: one vendor testimonial mentions a 'newest version' with markets, weather and news, but no vendor feature page describes this. No equipment, elevator or AI integrations described.
John Deere Operations Center: Connects field, machine and operator data (tillage, seeding, spraying, harvest) from JDLink-connected Deere machines; non-Deere or unconnected machines can be added and the platform is described as usable 'regardless of type, size, or brand'. 'JD' AI assistant answers natural-language questions over the farm's own Operations Center data; in a limited US Early Access Program as of Sept 2026, broader rollout planned later in 2026, included at no extra charge; a separate 'Help AI' for equipment setup launched Aug 2025. Operator/labor is partial (operator performance comparisons, access permissions, not payroll). Third-party 'Connections' let farmers grant access to connected software companies and advisors (e.g., Ag Leader AgFiniti and PTx FarmENGAGE list Operations Center connections). Mobile: Operations Center Mobile and Equipment Mobile apps (iOS/Android).
