No incentive was offered Aside from being a beautiful, easy-to-use program, WinEx goes above and beyond with its phenomenal customer service. As someone who has spent almost a decade in the service industry, I have never interacted with a team that communicates with each other so effectively while aiding customers. All calls are answered politely and promptly. The staff I have encountered, ([sensitive content hidden],) have not only answered any questions I had with this program but ensured I left their calls with a deeper understanding of how the program works.

Provides 3d models showing before and after contours #### Cons Lack of ability to do site services accuratly and rock excavation for this.

No incentive was offered Overall I have had positive results with my experience. Customer service and the training are very good. It is nice to have someone that works with you at a pace you are comfortable with #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The functionality and detail of the program. #### Cons There is a lot to learn to get the full benefit --- ### WinEx Master won the bid! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Mel C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Environmental Services - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2020 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I recently used the program for a proposal on a project with several sites and a wide range of scopes of work. The client had provided quantity take-offs for cut and fill and import materials. We were able to double check their quantities and determine that the client's quantities were high by about 20%. We submitted our proposal with an alternate and take-off backup, reducing the overall cut and fill, and import costs considerably. 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. They take the time to understand my take-off requirements and offer solutions. 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. I have become more confident with my take-off results when I use the program. The more I use WinEx Master, the more indispensable it is becoming to the estimation process. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like that the software will work seamlessly with different types of electronic media, pdf or AutoCAD for example. The visualizations are high quality and very detailed, making it a very effective tool to explain a take-off to others. The program is easy to manipulate to allow "what if" scenarios. There are built in features that make previously difficult tasks easier (Alt Plan). The on-screen prompts are very helpful. The program support has been incredible and very knowledgeable about their product and my industry. The program is not a drag on my laptop resources. #### Cons I have not found an aspect yet that I can say needs to be improved. I would like to see more help videos and a little more detail in the manual, but neither of these items have been a problem because the support has been incredible. #### Reasons for switching to WinEx The process of using Adobe to do takeoffs is too cumbersome, its not designed for what I need it do. gathering information in Adobe and using it in Excel leads to errors. I am not proficient in AutoCAD so using that for earth moving take-offs didn't work for me. AutoCAD is very expensive; we don't have it on everybody's computer. Having to rely on someone in another office to do a take-off for me gave me no confidence in the results. Also, not having the flexibility to manipulate/work the take-off approach was very limiting. With WinEx Master, I have a program that is less expensive, easier to use and at my fingertips. --- ### WinEx Master - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Michael M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: December 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered While the learning curve is somewhat steep, the benefits of WinEx Master have made the effort worth it. Quick, accurate take-offs with ready-made mark-ups in one step are always beneficial. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Support. The #1 feature of this software, above all others that I have used, is the efficiency and accessibility of the support staff. There is a plethora of take-off modeling software, while some are easier to use than others, they are all ultimately making volumetric measurements...Roctek's support team elevates the product's usefulness in ways that AgTek and others do not. #### Cons Reports. Getting the information from the take-off software into the workstream can be greatly improved. The overall trend in construction ERP software is to take a project from the design/pre-construction phase into completion with as little redundant work and admin load as possible. The ability to bridge Roctek's data into ERP software is crucial. Additionally, increasing the functionality of 2D applications would be an excellent addition to Roctek's difference in the market. Being able to use one software for quick area take-offs or more complex 3D applications would be a tremendous benefit to specialty subs and mid-market-sized GC's. #### Reasons for choosing WinEx I wasn't part of that decision process. #### Reasons for switching to WinEx Moved from an AgTek to Roctek company. --- ### WinEx User Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kyle K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I have been in a position doing construction estimating for the past 5 years. I just started doing earthwork take-offs a few months ago. I had never done a mass earthwork take-off prior to using this software. The team at Rocktek has been amazing to work with. On day one, I did the basic starters training course. It only took about an hour to go through. From that moment, I was able to explore the software and easily figure out how to implement additional features. There software is not bogged down with a bunch of features/information that is not applicable. Everything is designed for a streamline success of your earthwork take-offs. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros -Quick response from Rocktek-Training is very simple and straight forward-The reports given are very informative and gives you exactly what you need. -Making quick adjustments to existing take-offs is very simple-If you have any questions, no matter how simple. They are happy to sit with you and work through it all. #### Cons -Have not found any yet that impact my work or speed getting take-off completed. --- ### GREAT SOFTWARE AMAZING CUSTOMER SUPPORT! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Maicey D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

They are constantly coming out with updates that get better and better each time. They have the best customer support I have ever experienced. They are always available to go over any questions you have no matter how big or small. They go out of their way to help me with all of my questions and they spend as much time as I need going over difficult jobs. If I need something they don't offer (which is rare) they come out with an update with that feature! They far surpass any company I have ever worked with! #### Cons The only thing that I don't love about WinEx is the Summary reports. I find the layout difficult to read and the summary not very efficient. --- ### WinEx Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Chris H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

The ease of operation and great tech support. It makes a great visual aid when taking to clients. #### Cons The thing I don't like the most is not being able to use on multiple computers without moving the key from computer to computer. I understand why the license is the way it is but being able to use on at least two would be so much more handy for our company. --- ### Outstanding Product - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Heath H. - Industry: Construction - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: November 2013 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Our company does a lot of small site work.
