Encircle is great to catalog your building contents for insurance purposes.

All good so far!

PROS

Got an insurance policy that'll reimburse you for fire damage, flooding, or another massive AOE that destroys your place? Yep. You think you're safe until you have to file a claim and document everything you just lost. That's where Encircle comes in. DOCUMENT EVERYTHING! As my lawyers often say, "the one who has the most documentation generally wins." Don't fight your insurance company. Give them a huge list of everything you lost in the incident by using Encircle. Document what you have, and then whenever you bring in a new non-consumable item into your place, just snap a picture of it and optionally fill in the details for it. You can easily separate everything into rooms.

CONS

The thing I'm still not sure about is when I move from my apartment into a home, will it be easy to move items into a new room and location? I haven't tried yet, but my guess is that I'll just rename the place and its rooms. If something changes rooms, then it just gets moved in the app.

Great Software for Restoration Project Management

Encircle allows us to not only store and categorize our photos but gives us several options to create reports from those photos . It also allows us to track our equipment and include our drying metrics.

PROS

The Encircle app is easy to use for our technicians to upload and share job site photos, the company is also continuously improving the program and adding new features

CONS

it can be frustrating when photos are incorrectly categorized as room photos instead of contents photos and there is no easy way to reverse it.

A team asset

Very good, a great documentation and communication tool.

PROS

The ability to have everyone in the company able to access photos and videos for any given job. The video work order has been amazing for communicating exactly what staff need to do. It allows the project managers to provide an exact scope of work to the field staff without having to be onsite allowing them to move onto the next job and not waiting around for the workers to get to site.

CONS

It can take sometimes take time to sync, especially in bad service areas. Having to repeatedly shut down and open up the program to "kick start" it back into syncing.

Wish it had more

Easy to use, big help to field technicians

PROS

I like the import floor plan feature to Xactimate

CONS

I wish the floor plan import to Xactimate included more than only the walls, it doesn't add stairs, cabinets, etc. Shows in the floor plan but doesn't appear in Xactimate.
