Pros

“We are able to manage estimating, scheduling, job costing, time tracking, invoicing, and project documentation without needing multiple software programs.”

Keara H.

Office Manager

“It also includes a wide range of features, like time tracking, daily logs, and file sharing, which helps reduce miscommunication and keeps everyone on the same page.”

Anaya V.

Admin Assistant

“The platform is highly customizable, allowing us to tailor it to our workflows, and the customer support team has been excellent throughout the implementation process.”

Keara H.

Office Manager

Pros

“On the occasion when we take-off projects with multiple rooms or floors, using project and common conditions makes our take-off very efficient. ”

Tim L.

Market Segment Leader

“Learning about the change order option has been a game changer for tracking active project costs.”

Jake T.

Estimator

“For project management purposes, my other estimators would be able to check where the numbers are.”

David T.

Roofing Contractor

Cons

“Additionally, while the mobile interface is functional, there are occasional inconsistencies in loading speeds when switching between complex modules—such as moving from detailed cost reports to daily logs—which can impact efficiency during busy site visits.”

Ilkin B.

Project Manager

“The only thing I wish I could do, was have the system send and email (invoice or estimate or whatever) and the email shows that its coming from me instead of contractor foreman. If I forget to tell the client, they dont recognize the email address and they dont open it.”

Selicio A.

Project Manager

“Not being able to show a sales discount has been tough for me, showing it as a negative number has effected our accounting and therefore we can no longer even show sales discount as minus one product”

Cassandra B.

Window Covering Representative

Cons

“If you are entering quantities instead of doing a takeoff on a blueprint, the process is not nearly as fast as it would be on an Excel spreadsheet.”

Marlin F.

Director of Estimating and IT

“I asked a question and never got the answer if Report Spray Chart and a drawing can be on the same page?”

Minya M.

Project Manage and Estimating

“I don't like that there's not a whole lot for user learning outside of corporate training.”

Ashley H.

Commercial Program Manager
