CDR takes a very small construction company and instantly gives you a professional look and feel that is comparable to companies worth millions$ more. Overall, I am excited to say I am a CDR customer, and I think it is a beneficial program for any construction company to use.

The thing I like the most about CDR is it doesn’t try to be something that it’s not. Construction Daily Report (CDR) is just what it says it is. And it shouldn’t be anything else. And, it is great. A lot of time and attention was obviously put into the design and layout and functionality. Thank you, CDR, for making a program that does exactly what it should in a very professional way.

I have no dislikes. But let me say this, every time I have had a dislike, in the past, it was always quickly resolved by the [sensitive content hidden] and tech team.

Ease of useQuick set upPreloaded questions Project calendar needs an additional color dot to indicate if any daily entry has been made or skipped

Project is completed and I wanted to archive the project reports away on external drive in case of client questions…contacted customer service, was informed that I was to print off reports each day from the beginning to save them, (ridiculous) and that no data down load was available. Was informed that access to project data would remain available on your servers for the reoccurring monthly fee of 20.00. (Again, ridiculous)I paid for the use of the tool, which was great, however the reports/data is mine and should be available to me to download and archive at project close out.Time between active projects cannot support the monthly fee, which is not your fault, but this disappointing ending with impact a repeat customer.I am happy to pay the fee while using the tool, so there should be a way for you to figure this out.Currently paying for the service 3 months after project completion, hoping for a better solutionExpecting to cancel subscription shortly.

overall CDR has made my job much easier and it’s a good bargain so I give them a good thumbs up

CDR is easy to use in the field and does not take up much extra time. As a guy who is NOT a tech guy I still find this to be very user friendly, very much like a fill in the blank test where I already have all the answers. Although I am good with math another great feature is I just fill in the blanks daily and they keep track of man hours, subcontract labor, etc. for the duration of the job. Finally, compared to other similar programs this one is much more affordable.

Honestly the only real issue I have had is that it is not as good on my I-pad as it is on my laptop and I use my i-pad daily. Sometimes if I need to review photos at full size I have to break out my computer which is not as handy to tote around on the job site.

I cut back on the amount of time needed to complete reports and get them to the proper party. These reports are also much neater than the ones I used to use - very professional looking. Of the few MINOR issues I've had with this product, the customer service reps were always helpful in communicating the issue and working to resolve them. In the ~2 years I've used this product, I've had 3 minor issues that were fixed the same day (2/3 times my issues were fixed within the hour).

I like the neat interface and user-friendly design that this product offers. The immediate send-off of reports is very helpful and it cuts back on the amount of time I used to have to spend gathering, organizing, and disseminating reports. This was also easy to switch to, and I believe the field personnel agree as they don't have any issues using the software. Great price too! Very inexpensive for what you are getting.

The only thing I have a mild grievance with is the fact that I can't "archive" projects when they are completed. So they just stay on the projects screen mixed in with active projects. It's a mild inconvenience when scrolling through to get to reports.

This program helps us keep track of all our subs that show up for work, it's give us an opportunity to discuss any daily issues we come across out in the field.

We like that it's very user friendly, the office and field employees can all access it with ease.

Everything is great to us, and we wouldn't change a thing for what we are needing.

I need to be able to convey status of project on a daily basis for clients that are far away. With the limited amount of characters available in a note entry, I can only hit the highlights, and then add more detail into the cover email that the report is attached to.

I liked the ability to attach photos to specifc statements. I like the weather feature.

Learning curve. It was not intuitive for me to find the proper order to click to get where I needed to go. Every day stands on its own. As I learned the software, I cannot go back and add or subtract questions or categories. I wish the weather feature was changable to something closer to my site. When adding notes, I am limited in amount of characters.

We had multiple large projects in progress at the same time. Our foremans had access to CDR for daily reports. This was great, we had a central management site that kept up with hours, days worked, photos of the jobs progress and open dialogue.

Once the project was complete I wanted to print out a full report of the daily reports. This is not an option for CDR right now. I did ask and they said this is something they are working on.

I like the calendar feature - showing any days where an entry wasn't made the best, this is a QC feature that helps ensure we're tracking our jobs daily. Anyone can see from Superintendent to PM, what days entries were made.

I wish the daily report was customizable with question 'tiers'.For example, we have entered (customized) the question "Was a safety meeting conducted today?"Then followed by safety meeting applicable questions. I wish the applicable questions were tiered so that they only appeared if the checkbox for "Was a safety meeting conducted today?" was checked in the affirmative.

Smooth and easy

The automatic weather options is great. The ease of recording time & adding employees is great

After about a month I stopped receiving the auto emails when my crew did their reports. I alerted customer support and they said "we are working on it" but I have never seen a change.

Very satisfied...

Very user friendly. Client's like format.

To obtain one project DFR-PDF for project closeouts.

We are using this for daily reports - seems to be doing a nice job organizing and reporting daily activity on jobsites.

Tracking daily construction site logs - weather - delays - equipment - site visitors - changes - updates

That I have to click each link to view photos that are attached - would be nice to open all at one time

Overall my experience has been great. The support has been there in a timely manner and help resolve some reporting issue.

I think the product is somewhat easy to use. Some of my team didn't find it the most user friendly, it took them a little to figure out what they needed to do.

The one real issue I have is when there are multiple foreman on the same project, I had to add a differently named project so that both could do their daily reports and send separate reports.

Ease of visibility, easy to organize data and lightweight on system resources.

There could be more functions to sort through your database. This is however a minor nitpick.

Simplified my daily reporting and allows me to go home at least 30 minutes earlier every day.

I like that it does weather automatically and I enjoy the professional forma of the PDF it creates. My company uses Google Drive and Dropbox and CDR automatically drops all my reports in each company account without me having to lift a finger. Saves me a ton of time.

I wish it was free but it definitely is lower cost than their competition. I want the hours logs to automatically roll over but a customer service rep told me that they are building this feature now.

Being in construction, it's easy to forget "where you started" on a project. I love that it is easy to attach photos of progress. We can go back and see all the different phases of the project! This is a great way for us to review the productivity of our teams without being on every single site every day. Our managers can upload photos and hiding what did or did not happen that day gets much more difficult!

I wish there was an easier way to see the series of reports from any given project. If I want to know what happened on a project I have to hope that we saved it in a logical manner and search through each report. I would love to see a "see this project" option, where we could scroll through the entire series of reports for a specific project or timeline

I am not sure as my employees are the ones giving me feed back.

Inputting daily activity ie trade hours per project, is onerous , this process needs to be streamlined.

It does the job, happy for what we pay.

Ability to change the questions for the price, fast easy.

Pictures aren't big enough, wish we could get bigger ones in there for jobs. Doesn't work offline.

It was easy. Helped significantly reduce the amount of man hours spent on writing reports and also standardizing the format for my team. Very simple to find and pull old reports. It makes it especially nice for tracking projects because I get a report in my inbox right when it gets signed.

It costs money. It was definitely a much lower cost option than others we saw out there and seemed to be a little easier and more fine tuned than some others.

It's a good tool for the cost. Support is there to help you get set up and even when continuing with expanding your knowledge of the product.

Ability to create your own report template

Flexibility to create a more in-dept reporting tool

Do believe it has helped in documenting issue and safety item for projects

Basic Format of it is nice, like the ease of added and changing questions, Does work great with adding additional personal, s

The touch arrows and touch details are to small and dont always react when touched.Reports could be set up better and easier to get to
