Pros
Ease of use and great templates. Vendor provides excellent training and follow up.
My customers love the fact that they can log in, see all the plans/specs and track their budget. It's a good tool that exploits the professional approach we take with our projects.
We've used BuildingBlok for 5 years, and it's saved us countless hours by handling document storage, processing, transmitting etc. It's easy to use but powerful.
Cons
I dislike the difficulty to backup the information on a daily basis.
The project setup was rather cumbersome and would sometimes delay initial entry of the project.
I get the feeling that we were at the early stages of the product development. So, we ran into a few more problems using it than I thought we would.
