Pros

“From the very start of organizing your files with the import functions to clicking off rooms.”
KP

Kalen P.

Project Manager

“It takes a bit of getting used to and requires some user input to set yourself up for a successful takeoff.”
KP

Kalen P.

Project Manager

“I have been using different estimating systems for over 20 years and this is by far the best system I have encountered.”
HK

Henry K.

Estimator

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

“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

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

Dario W.

Estimator

Cons

“Roll good features could use some assistance as measure seems to not handle roll goods correctly with some settings missing for how installers will actually perform the install.”
DJ

Dustin J.

Estimator

“Some of the smaller drawings can get overwhelmed with measurements, the cut sheet layout can be rather hectic/unorganized.”
Dd

Daniel d.

Commercial Estimator

“Wouldn't take the windows version on a site measure. If you make a mistake it is faster to delete the room and start again than to try and fix.”
NP

Neill P.

Director

Cons

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

Sanket Y.

Project Manager

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

Allan T.

Director estimator project manager

“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. ”
