Pros

“There are different terms for invoicing (order entry) and purchase orders, which are 2 of my top functions in the current Sage software.”

Rachel B.

Lead Project Accountant

“The ability to drill down into costs by job, phase, and cost code provides strong visibility into project performance.”

Joey M.

IT Manager

“Incredibly flexible and accessible from anywhere and give you the granular control over your construction financials, Sage covers almost every base you could need.”

Lorrie K.

Construction Administrator

Pros

“The customizable assemblies and measurement tools make it easy to adapt to different project types, and the software has helped improve both the speed and consistency of our estimates. Although the interface could be modernized and cloud collaboration enhanced, it continues to be an effective solution for construction estimating.”

Caleb C.

Estimator- Project Manager

“What I liked most about PlanSwift was its speed and flexibility for performing digital takeoffs.”

Caleb C.

Estimator- Project Manager

“Exports smoothly into Excel and other estimating tools, bridging field detail with polished bid documents.”

Candida M.

CEO

Cons

“You have to create a different calculation for every employee for every payrate. When you have 50+ employees and they can work on 3-4 different positions and you have 6 wages scale jobs that is just too many calculations for 4-6 month projects.”

Lori R.

VP of Adminstration

“We found that managing the certified payrolls could be a little cumbersome with detail in the fringe benefits.”

Lorrie K.

Construction Administrator

“By the time I've contacted support, I've already tried to solve the issue six ways from Sunday as I am very familiar with how the software works, so a call is usually my last resort and going around in circles with AI doesn't do it for me, especially given we pay upwards of $15,000 for the gold tier support.”

Heidi J.

Controller, Human Resources

Cons

“The plans are essentially just images, so you can't turn on/off layers in pdfs, you can't import design files directly and there is no 3d capability. While planswift has a "one click" auto takeoff, I have never found it reliable and have always reverted to doing it manually”

Andrew H.

Senior Engineering Estimator

“Integration with other construction management tools is somewhat limited, which can affect workflow efficiency for teams using multiple systems.”
