Pros

“ie. if we have Electrical Rough in and Schedule Electrician A and we also have phase Electrical Top out it will not automatically pull the electrician into that phase meaning there is a lot of time input to make sure the schedules are correct. ]”

“It keeps all document numbers in order, helped with professionalism and allowed us to spend more time bidding jobs instead of on spreadsheets.”

“The resource board is a little complicated since our project have mutliple phases that the subcontractors are responsible for and when scheduled on one item they do not go over into other phases.”

“The bill approval integration with QB is annoying. When the bill is input into knowify it only allows the option to sync with QB or not PRIOR to the approval or rejection.”
