TreeKeeper review
A municipal-focused inventory and GIS system with unlimited users and data at paid annual tiers.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
TreeKeeper is an urban forestry management system from Davey Resource Group. It is designed for municipalities, parks, universities, cemeteries, commercial properties, and nonprofits that need structured records for trees and other assets. Teams can define data fields and layers, search and filter inventories, assign permissions to roles such as city foresters and subcontractors, attach photos and documents, and coordinate field work from internet-connected devices. Reporting includes inventory views and ecosystem-benefit calculations, while printable work orders support operational follow-through.
The vendor lists annual subscriptions beginning at $3,600 for Tier 1 with API. That tier includes unlimited users, unlimited data, free upgrades, and API access. Tier 2 Annual Subscription is listed at $8,000 per year and retains unlimited users, unlimited data, and free upgrades. Tier 3 Annual Subscription includes annual premium support. The plans are cloud-deployed and accessed through the web, with email listed as a support channel. TreeKeeper Canopy is an optional subscription add-on for canopy and land-cover data.
TreeKeeper fits organizations that want inventory work, mapping, and field coordination in one system. Its ecosystem includes integrations with 311, Cartegraph, Cityworks, and FORMS, plus import and export capabilities for inventory data and shapefiles. Permissions can separate access for municipal staff and subcontractors, and GIS data can drive real-time map updates. The strongest case is a municipality or institutional property manager with a substantial asset registry and reporting needs. Contractor operations seeking a broader job-management focus may find the inventory-centered scope less aligned, especially given the annual starting cost and web-only platform.
