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.”
KH

Keara H.

Office Manager

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

“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.”
IB

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”
