CMiC product overview

What is CMiC?

For over 30 years, CMiC has delivered state-of-the-art software solutions, purpose-built for the construction industry. CMiC has always maintained a laser focus on automating and enhancing essential back-office functions – such as accounting, enterprise planning, human capital management and asset management – as well as field operations, including project management & controls, collaboration and a full suite of apps for mobile devices.

Key benefits of using CMiC

1. CMiC’s powerful software transforms how firms optimize productivity, minimize risk and drive growth by planning
and managing all financials, projects, resources, and content assets—from a Single Database Platform.

2. The software suite enables the entirety of a project's lifecycle, from concept to closeout. Construction firms have
choices with CMiC: they can start with back office functionality only (accounting, finance, human resource
management, project controls, etc.), keeping their legacy project management software; start with field operations
only (project administration & collaboration, mobile solutions, etc.), integrating with their legacy accounting software;
or deploy the full enterprise suite, which includes all the functionality needed to run and manage their entire
operation.

3. With the full suite, construction firms will maximize the value of their investment by taking control of their accounting
and forecasting processes; enhancing their enterprise planning and content management; managing change orders
with full visibility; simplifying the bid process; orchestrating their network of subcontractors seamlessly; collaborating
with all project stakeholders; better controlling the flow and management of documents; and restoring confidence in
their costs, revenues and budgets—all in real time.

4. With the CMiC Single Database Platform, all project and company information is accessed from one place, ensuring
everyone across the organization is viewing and leveraging the most up-to-date information--in real time. Because all
information is always complete and accurate, construction firms can better control their costs, mitigate changes and
keep multiple projects running smoothly, on budget and on time.

5. Our platform easily accommodates a variety of ways to connect with complementary technologies, including pre-built
integrations, API bundles or our automated translation engine, PMXchange. Our focus is on delivering integrated
solutions that require minimal deployment effort, a seamless user experience and a superior cost-benefit advantage.

Pros
Excellent tool for the administration of architectural projects, Great technical support in billing. It has very reliable and efficient integrated systems.
CMIC is an impressive product with tons of features, functionality, scalable to a large number of users and stable. It also has the ability to integrate with a few of our key platforms.
The cost management portion is great and easy for the user to comprehend. CMiC also does a great job supporting their customers and have top-notch account reps.
Cons
The amount of information within each section can be a little overwhelming. Saving after each step can be a little irritating.
Terrible IT support that can’t seem to calculate our payroll and report job costs accurately on a regular basis. We are almost a year into dealing with ongoing software issues.
Very slow and some functions do not work properly which is frustrating when your brain works faster than the programs and reports.

Good Work Keep it up!

Reviewed 6 years ago
Pros

For the most part, CMIC meets our needs. It has come a long way in the 11 years I have been using it and I like the direction it's going in. When ADF gets all the little nuances worked out it, it will be a great replacement for the old Forms screens. I think the JSP screens need to get a face lift next which mobile is helping with that. All in all, I've used a few other construction ERP systems and CMIC, while quirky at times, is my favorite.

Cons

Take the time to understand why the system is doing what it's doing. Once you understand the "why", then it makes determining your process easier. Sometimes, minor tweaks to processes can make the world of difference in how something is done and makes the process as a whole work better within the system.

CMiC - The Future of the Construction Industry

Reviewed 7 years ago

I think CMiC is a solid solution with abundant features and capabilities. We have only "unlocked" about 10% of the tool, so I hope we keep growing and leaning the CMiC solution. I wish our company used more of the program - there's so many helpful tools. The CMiC team has been a pleasure, overall, to work with. We look forward to growing with CMiC in the future.

Pros

People that work at CMiC, overall, are all awesome. Paul in sales, and Chet in support, are (2) especially solid individuals that come to mind. The ECM Plug In is great! That tool alone is worth CMiC. Support staff is usually very responsive when issues arise. TONS of features and capabilities! I like that CMiC has updates often - makes you feel comfortable that they're continually trying to support their clients and improve their product.

Terrrible, not worth the headache.

Reviewed 6 years ago

None, worst program ever, delete this thing and use spreadsheets. or upgrade to a real software like procore.

Pros

Nothing, this is one of the worst programs ever to be implemented and forced on the field side of construction.

Cons

interface appears to be from 1985, crashes multiple times, resets and erases work in progress setting you back days. no clear path to update or search for RFIs, ASI's or general information. completing dailies on this thing is painful at best. sometimes will not send out documents even though it tells you it has, creating large contract document disputes. its a PM program forced on field supervision that does not help the field side at all.

CMiC Review

Reviewed 6 years ago

Just use it. It makes your job easier.

Pros

Three things i like about CMiC: 1) That is a universal solution, meaning it handles accounting, field operations, safety, document control, all in one place. (i'm hoping that mobile increases this functionality) 2) That is geared toward the basic functions of a general contractor (workflow is good) 3) That it appears like continual improvement of the software is a focus (technological advancement is never ending)

Cons

The rigidity and limited nature of the reporting. (I'm working on MIP and hopefully will soon have access to oracle or jasper reporting tools to customize reports) The 'Captive data' aspect of the JSP data entry. (How you must hit "edit", then modify/enter data, then hit 'save")

A Great Construction Enterprise Solution

Reviewed 7 years ago

We have been using CMiC since 2005 and our overall experience has been very positive. Over the years, the solution continues to evolve and is part of our competitive advantage. When implementing for the first time, it is important to redefine workflows to be consistent with the system so that the full benefits can be achieved.

Pros

1. A centralized enterprise solution that includes Finance, HR, CRM and workflow as well project management. 2. The collaboration functionality enables us to engage all project participants anywhere, anytime. 3. Integration with other applications such as Plangrid and Docusign.

Cons

1. New releases sometimes result in loss of existing functionality that we have been relying on. 2. Training for new releases is not provided free of charge creating a disincentive to upgrade.
