LS

SP

Sarah P.

Admin

Pros

“PO’s could be better at adding additional lines without it creating new items in actual costing, and not hve to save exit, then add to existing order, if there is 20 different items to allocate to that one line”
MS

Mitch S.

Construction manager

“The takeoff tools and cost tracking features help reduce manual effort and improve consistency across bids.”
DW

Dario W.

Estimator

“I also really like that I can link files and data across the different tools, which helps keep everything connected and easy to track without errors.”
NS

Natalie S.

Senior immigration Advisor

Cons

“Lack of logical functionality and the massive delay of establishing features from the product suggestions page that you list as being implemented.”
DH

Daniel H.

Systems Analyst

“You have to monitor for basic functionality at least after each release; no channel based communication tools like Slack; no embedded electronic signature capabilities; they've jumped on the revenue bandwagon for adding on needed subscriptions for basic functionality, while not keeping up with where the industry has moved, particularly during the pandemic. ”
BE

Beth E.

Director

“Also, When I print an attachment (and by print it can be show as a pdf or word document, E-Builder does not keep the name of the document and gives it a generic name. If I have several of those PDFs open, I don't know which is which.”
PR

Pablo R.

Project Manager

Cons

“It can be a little annoying when making reports takes a few extra clicks and some small problems happen from time to time.”

“I struggle a little with the rfq as my subcontractors hardly ever submit in time and I have to keep reopening”
AT

Allan T.

“There are some things that buildxact can't do like negative variations in a cost plus job. But usually when raised they try to fix things. ”
