Simple to use and affordable estimating solution.

The online live trainings to use the software was disorganized and hard to follow unless you already were familiar with the software.

Dealing with the staff when I rarely call for assistance  is just fantastic.

The onboarding session with Jennifer was not only seamless but it was enjoyable, which in turn motivated me to fully understand the system.

Estimating Link-The best asset I purchased in 40 years as a contractor.

Overall, our experience has been very positive. We are building a repository of easily accessible estimates that can be analyzed, compared, and tracked.

I can't think of anything I dislike about this product.

Satisfied with my experience great people very helpful.

However, the one on one training eliminates the confusion and allows for more interaction to learn exactly what you need without the bells and whistles that a company is not using at the time.

The onboarding session with [sensitive content hidden] was not only seamless but it was enjoyable, which in turn motivated me to fully understand the system.

Dealing with the CLI team over the years has been a pleasure.

It is simple to operate yet provides valuable data that is very useful on a daily basis.

Easy and fast to use extremely easy to adjust and continue to grow your library of pricing.

My overall experience was great, the company is willing to help out any sized company and from anywhere.

Some functionality can be somewhat clunky but these are small complaints for very specific items.

I have been using Estimating Link for many years and I've found it to be very user friendly and flexible in bidding many different types of construction projects.

Calling in and hopping on a screenshare when help is needed is my favorite feature especially since it is welcomed.

From my very first use of the old. Dos program in 1989, Construction Link has been very ease to use, easy to learn, (program updates and applications) and easy to teach, (new employees).

The software is super user friendly and the customer service is top notch.

What seems to be the most useful aspect of this software in our case, is that we can copy and past, past projects that are similar, and create new ones, saving lots of time and effort.

Now you have to go back and forth between the rate tables and the pay item or sub-level, searching for the next employed resource.

Most of the time it's been user error. I think this system is awesome and will continue to use this system here and will invest in the system for my own company when the time comes.

Over the top customer support. Affordable product with sophisticated estimating capabilities.

Everyone is so knowledgeable of their programs and they genuinely care about their clients. There is no sitting on hold like every other remote assistance i have dealt with.

There are a couple of things that we love about this product. The ease of operation and great tech support.

I like that the software will work seamlessly with different types of electronic media, pdf or AutoCAD for example.

I like that you have many ways of achieving your goal of establishing the necessary Quantities.

My overall experience has been great. The software has allowed us to land more jobs, eliminate mistakes, and grow our profit margins.

Sometimes, it's difficult to figure out how to do specific tasks.

Input of data lines and contours is confusing. Importing drawings is cumbersome.

Line tracking is is a good feature. Data input screens are well-thought-out, and graphics seem to be pretty good.

They take the time to understand my take-off requirements and offer solutions.

My favorite part is being able to use the digitizer on PDF plans instead of paper.

The ability to be able to import from PDF or CAD. The great tech support provided by Roctek.

We submitted our proposal with an alternate and take-off backup, reducing the overall cut and fill, and import costs considerably.

It's a very straightforward program to use. Great customer service, staff are easy to reach and very knowledgeable.

King's Excavation and Dirt Works does a lot of cut & fill projects in Hawaii. By using ROCTEK's WinEx Master, I cut my time in half.

Having confidence in our take-off's allowed us to go to the client with this project savings and ultimately helped us win the bid. The technical support has been an incredible help.

I've been in the excavation business for a while and truthfully think it's one of my best investments yet.

There's no instruction manual with the program.

Very easy to use and adapt to after using a couple times. The Roctek (Winex Grade) team is extremely good at what they do and very helpful.

Amazing just amazing, from everything they do from top to bottom they will work with you and help you and bend over backwards to satisfy you.

There are built in features that make previously difficult tasks easier (Alt Plan).

Being new to estimating this program is easy to use and customer service is top notch. Great features fpr the price point.

Visually it helps with the 3-D Viewer and I like that I can print Graphics Forms of the Estimate that I can include with my Bid Proposal.

Customer support has easily been the best feature of the product.

I do a lot of my take-off's after hours, so most of the time, its just support getting back to me very promptly with a few pointers to help me work more effectively.

The software is easy to use and the customer service is really good.

The product is relatively simple to use, and gives great information. There's a couple of work arounds that i forget from time to time, but i'm sure future releases will solve those work arounds.
