    Pros
    The customer service is absolutely superb. Quick response; helpful, clear answers to questions; quick turnaround for customization.
    We enter all our AR and AP transactions into Knowify and it syncs beautifully with QB. Absolutely love the built in AIA billing format and the ability to email out of the application.
    I LOVE the invoicing system and contracts and having it sync with emails its great. Also the employees ability to check into a specific job.
    Cons
    Searches can be difficult to return to. They lack pagination customization.
    The guys have problems all the time with the clocking in.
    Customer service doesn't take the time to determine what is wrong.

    I really like how responsive the Knowify team is to questions and support!

    Reviewed 6 years ago

    Keeping close tabs on project P&L's is great with Knowify. Project Managers/Admin can pull data at any time to keep up-to-date on project costs. We like being able to use AIA billing through Knowify. Finding one place to apply all job costs to a project is great!

    Pros

    We all like how we have been able to provide ideas/needs to Knowify and see them integrate many of those into their updates and new options.

    Cons

    There are still some functions that area holding us back in what we are able to do with Knowify, specifically billing. We have been told that they are working on those options, but the sooner those are added the better workflow we will have using their system.

    Wanted to make this a priority for my business, but customer service is terrible.

    Reviewed 7 years ago

    A good idea of what I want. Otherwise, no benefit at all. This software, by itself, is a great concept, but the management team and the connectivity with my normal QB software is abhorrent.

    Pros

    Makes bids, change-orders, and scheduling easy. In theory - but not actuality - it should link with Quickbooks, which, if working, would be awesome.

    Cons

    Customer service doesn't take the time to determine what is wrong. There are several tiers of people who are trying to help, but they continue to give a quick reaction to solve the problem and don't really help. The program itself only links with Quickbooks occasionally. If you don't input information perfectly, it scrambles your numbers and can throw all of your books off. Getting access to human help is hard. The input work is way more work than the results.

    Vendor response

    Hello Joel, We are sorry to hear of your bad experience with our customer support. We at Knowify put an extremely high priority on all tickets and the majority of our customers will agree that this is one of the strongest parts of Knowify (as shown in many reviews on this page). Your specific case threw us a curveball, as you had deleted your access to Knowify on a Friday night. Our customer...

    Great for the sub-trades

    Reviewed 6 years ago

    Knowify entered our business at the right time and it has been reliable. We've had our challenges navigating the options to find the right tools to use in each scenario, but it's been well employed since. Custom reports, automated tools, and a mobile event calendar would help knowify replace a few other tools that we are using

    Pros

    Knowify excels in connecting the user with the client in terms of financials. Contracts are made easily and change order management is a breeze

    Cons

    There are some inconsitincies in the UI where depending on the billing style of a project, different form fields are presented for very similar tasks. When creating a project, it's very important to know what information will be available to share to the client before attributing time or materials to the project. The calendar doesn't bring much value to our business where scheduling can be down to the 15 minute interval and mobile use is necessary.

    Good option for us because of the price. We use another full feature software for our construction business.

    Pros

    Lightweight and easy to train others. Simple and fast quoting functions.

    Cons

    Mobile app is built for field personnel and doesn’t have the features I need for sales as an owner. No CRM. Workflow is clunky for scheduling. Financial integration with Quickbooks is very basic.
