This has definitely saved money and increased efficiency for us.

Easy to use and well laid out and helpful whether your doing a job intake for your team, a bid on a site, or a simple drawing for training or visual aid...it is just so helpful.

Making changes to accommodate all users within our company is very difficult to make happen and often comes with resistance from the engineers.

The customer service I have experienced has been great and the software works great on my tablet with no crashes, so definitely check it out if you're interested.

Drawing feature linked to price makes it easy for a sales rep to estimate on site.

The user interface and functionality is exceptional in depicting an accurate floor plan. The fact that the in field constructed drawing can seamlessly export to CAD is one of the greatest perks.

The ability to draw simple floor plans was great. It was easy to do, and for the most part, had the shapes I needed.

ArcSite handles PDF mobile cad drawings possible in an elegant manner. The tool makes possible creation, editing, redlining of CAD quality drawings and integrates photos in an exceptional manner.

At one point there was a glitch in one of my drawings that caused the walls to move, but after an app update, it fixed the problem.

Overall, the company has been nothing but helpful and the experience has been positive. We love the value it adds by having it installed on our iPads.

Primarily, I use it to map monuments in need of restoration or cleaning, as well as for landscaping issues and concerns. It is easy to upload the maps I need as base templates.

What I like most about this software is how easy and user friendly it is. ArcSite has greatly helped my confidence learning more structural work.

However, paying this much, every month, to simply draw a floor plan is ridiculous.

The ease of doing this on my iPad with my pencil is a pleasure. I can not fault this app.

The ability to change dimensions and have the software automatically adjust other walls at the same time was great. The software was intuitive and easy to use.

Also, occasional crash issue when using custom symbols created in the app.

I enjoyed using the software, and I would love to continue using it. However, the costs were a hurdle that made it hard to justify compared to other sketching software.

I have really enjoyed using the software. I have completely replaced my hand drawings and notes with Arcsite and it had been great.

They do not care that I am a small business, and treat me like I am a very large company. My team is so much happier and work is more efficient with this app, and they have the best customer service.

The issue that bothered me the most is its mandatory bidding features. We have no need for them.

It was too expensive and i couldn't get my employer to pay the subscription.

It is capable of doing a large variety of things and helps with keeping all the jobs straight.

The integration with Planswift works awesome. Phone support is always great too.

Some of the accounting package link-up can be frustrating and we lost a function recently which was not particularly helpful for us and was driven by other contractors needs who use the software.

Overall the experience has been great and they have great and responsive customer service.

The ease of use, very client friendly, the ability to track every jobs progress.

Buildertrend has helped set up my business for success. It is an excellent tool for a growing company and helps you scale pretty easily.

It is a great way to keep alot of information on all of our jobs in one place and the budget tool is great.

Buildertrend is an amazing tool - it helps us keep track of all of our projects seamlessly. One of my favorite assets about BT is their customer service.

I like the daily logs as well, it’s a great little communication tool for project management. Finally the sub portal is fantastic.

Very useful program!!! Easy to navigate and super user friendly with all the support you could need at anytime.

Rich applications sets like this can be overwhelming to implement,  but there is a good amount of training / coaching available up front.

It is great and links very well with Quickbooks. Very happy about job control and able to keep schedules and costs.

They are very poor and make it hard to deal with large data sets. Their filters are missing exact matches between items in the same category.

Unable to autosave to-do's or the daily log is obnoxious. If you accidentally close out the program you lose all data.

In dealing with the company financials, this is a fantastic product for us to have visibility from estimates to actual cost tracking.

I like how everything integrates and the number of features it provides. I love that you can use it in the phone.

The Daily Log feature is great and our customers love it. Overall, very happy with BT and looking forward to future improvements.

This went on for months before I realized it was happening. When asked them to refund the missed months before I continued with buildertrend they simply said “they can’t refund any charges.

Buildertrend has been great so far and we are happy we chose to use this product. Hopefully as some of these new fixes / integrations get worked out the tool will become even more useful for us.

Their customer service is unmatched in how responsive, friendly and helpful they are with questions or technical issues.

BuilderTrend has the best customer service (help desk) I have ever had. They have saved me on many occasions.

I like how user friendly it is for me. I am 26 years old. I understand how to operate a computer.

This platform brings loads of organization with the features it offers. This is a great way to help keep the contractor, sub-contractors, employees, and homeowner on the same page.

The worst drawback is that there is essentially no function for schedulING.

Inability to customize the POs to subcontractors and  lack of an instruction manual.

They recently came out with a new pay structure which nearly doubled the costs of the program. Its a shame as we are now looking elsewhere for a program that has many of the same functions.

It is very easy to access, it is user friendly and i am really enjoying learning new things each week. Tutorials are very good and easy to understand.

We get great support whenever we need it. I love that it connects with quickbooks which takes away the need to double input.

What I like most about BuilderTrend is it's ease of use, the customization ability of the software, and the ease of edit/revision.

It is a wonderful tool to use when building a home. You can upload all of the selections, personalize all the jobs, upload pictures and follow through on the schedule and to do's.

I like the ease of the change order approval and decline, and the change orders are interactive with the appropriate vendors and subtrades.

Your online help, live chats and training videos are EXCELLENT. My coach has been extremely helpful and I have gained much knowledge from my personal appointments with him.

I have been using Builtertrend for a few years and Im happy with the pricing structure and mobility and great to have real time help. I usually dont have trouble with speed and thats a big plus.
