    Pros
    Excellent experience from the demo through the purchase and implementation. Our account success manager and tech support have been very helpful.
    Excellent project overview. Excellent customer service, very responsive with follow through.
    If you are a subcontracting firm looking for project management/project tracking software, eSub provides a great solution and is a great value for the price.
    Cons
    The problem with this type of product was there were tons of functions that a subcontractor would never need or use. These products were also not efficient in exchanging files and information.
    Getting a job set up is not quite smooth yet. I have a little trouble figuring out how to get my information switched over from the Edge.
    I have no recommendations for others. They just need to try it.

    Customer Service is the best

    Reviewed a year ago

    Excellent- Love the tracking, ease of copying prior info to start new docs and ease of following timeline for RFIS and Submittals.

    Pros

    I use this for our construction documents for our field crew. RFI's and Submittals are easily processed by all of the team and tracking is easy and efficient. Better than the software is the support behind it. Our Project Manager,[SENSITIVE CONTENT] , goes above and beyond to let us know upcoming features, where to get answers and how to teach users to be effective with its information.

    Cons

    Understanding where users are pulled from for the submittal/RFI process from the project information. Specifically the Engineer, Estimator, Project Superintendent- What category do I add these people to ... Users or Contracts?

    Vendor response

    Hi Sue- Thank you for the great review and feedback. We're proud of the quality of service and support we offer clients like you. We know how important it is that folks use and understand the tools eSUB provides. That's why our Client Success Team works so hard to help make sure you get the most out of the software. Looks like you have some questions around user vs contact. To help clarify: a user is anyone who logs in to an eSUB account (usually an employee). A contact is anyone who receives documents or correspondence from eSUB (like a superintendent, engineer, or vendor). Your Client Success Manager can help clarify and assist if you still have any questions.

    eSUB Review

    Reviewed 8 months ago

    The system works a lot better than it did a year ago. It used to take forever to open Timecard Management or wouldn't open at all and I was having to manually enter payroll, but now I don't have that problem.

    Pros

    The export feature so time doesn't have to be manually entered in our Payroll system

    Cons

    I have to open each and every single job each week to save the Daily Reports and to know what jobs need to be included to export and it takes quite a bit of time. It would be nice if you could just populate daily reports created that week.

    We use eSUB for submittal, RFI & change order management

    Reviewed 8 months ago

    It helps us streamline some of our procedures, such as change order and submittal management and provides good recordkeeping.

    Pros

    I can only speak on the features that we use. My favorite aspect is change order management. It is very organized and user friendly, especially when making revisions. I like that the revisions are grouped together on the change order log, makes it easy to find them. RFI management is nice and clean as well.

    Cons

    I think the submittal log could be organized a bit better. I would prefer it to be organized just like the change order log. If there's a revision, keep it grouped together on the log rather than moving the revision up to the top. I find myself searching around the log too much to find submittals that were revised.
