Pros

“The platform is primarily optimized for the North American market, which shows in certain default measurement units and technical terminologies that require manual adjustment at the start.”
RS

Ricky S.

VP World Class Maintenance Maintenance and Reliability

“I particularly like the "Item & Assembly" structure—it ensures that when I measure a wall, I'm not just getting linear footage, but a full breakdown of studs, drywall, and insulation.”
FF

FHIDMANF F.

ceo

“For example if I want to take off a concrete slab. If I use volume 2D type measurement, I’m able to takeoff a polygon area and set the thickness. When I go to estimates I only have the option to price via CY.”
KS

Kyle S.

Operations Manager

Pros

“The search feature has been a complete game changer, we can instantly search for terms like "paint" or "sealed concrete" instead of manually hunting through drawings.”
JS

John S.

Project Manager and Estimator

“The measurement tools are accurate, and the platform helps us organize quantities clearly and save time during estimating.”
DF

Daniel F.

Estimator

“I use it to search for my scope of work on plans and for specific item numbers and names, etc.”
HS

Holly S.

Estimator

Cons

“It does not entirely capture how we process our estimates and does not have the flexibility of just exporting it as an Excel sheet and transferring the takeoffs to a workbook.”
MB

Matthew B.

Exterior Estimator

“It works but AI will make it obsolete for many customers if you don’t stay ahead of the curve and start offering customer focused solutions. Why would I pay these huge subscriptions otherwise”
RC

Rick C.

Cheif Operations Officer

“Sometimes the platform feels a little slow, although it may be related to my internet connection or when using a VPN.”
SD

SERGIO D.

SENIOR ESTIMATOR

Cons

“price list management - There is no easy tool to update prices and carry them into assemblies so when you have to update a large number of items and assemblies already created it can take a while to update.”
RE

Russ E.

Estimator

“The only thing that I can come up with would be the fact that you cannot customize the key binds and have to use the pre-set ones.”
RL

Robbie L.

Project Manager

“My least favorite thing about zzTakeoff is the inability to easily assign takeoffs to areas for reporting purposes.”
