Rumwood Nurseries

Rumwood Nurseries is a family-run nursery specialising in roses, ornamental trees and quality garden plants. Combining traditional horticultural expertise with organised digital systems, the business relies on accurate plant information and efficient label production to support its day-to-day operations.

Having previously used HLS Pro+, Rumwood Nurseries recently upgraded to HLS Pro X and has already seen significant benefits.

A More Modern, User-Friendly Experience

The journey began with an on-site demonstration from the Dura-ID Solutions team, giving the nursery an opportunity to see the software in action before installation.

One of the first things that stood out was the updated interface.

“Our first impressions were really positive. The interface felt much more modern, clearer to look at, and far easier to navigate.”

Compared to the previous version, HLS Pro X provides a cleaner and more intuitive user experience, making day-to-day tasks easier to complete.

Everything in One Place

For Rumwood Nurseries, one of the biggest improvements has been the move to a single-window workspace.

Previously, HLS Pro+ required users to work across separate windows for the database, print queue and search functions.

“The biggest change is that everything is now contained within one window. The old version required three separate windows, which made it feel disjointed. The new layout is far simpler and much easier to navigate.”

Bringing everything together in one place has made the software easier to use and simplified everyday label management.

Faster Searching and Improved Label Editing

The nursery has also seen immediate benefits from the enhanced search functionality and label editing tools available within HLS Pro X.

“The label editing tools are a big improvement, and the search function is quicker thanks to the single search bar.”

With faster access to plant information and improved editing capabilities, the team can make changes more efficiently and maintain accurate label data.

Dedicated Databases for Greater Efficiency

One feature that has made a particularly strong impact is the ability to create multiple databases.

Rumwood Nurseries now operates a dedicated database specifically for roses, allowing staff to focus only on relevant plant information.

“Being able to set up multiple databases is a game changer for us. We now have a dedicated database just for roses, which saves us from scrolling through unnecessary plant types.”

By reducing clutter and making information easier to find, the team can work more efficiently throughout the day.

Faster Label Production

Since upgrading, the nursery has noticed a clear improvement in the speed of its label production process.

“Label printing is noticeably quicker, and editing label information is much easier.”

The result is a smoother workflow, helping the business produce accurate labels more quickly and complete more work in less time.

A Straightforward Transition

Despite moving to a completely new platform, the transition was straightforward.

“We didn’t need any extra training. The software is straightforward once you get used to it.”

The intuitive design meant users adapted quickly and were able to begin benefiting from the new system almost immediately.
