Functionality

Pros:

No one else that has this type of software comes anywhere close to the ease of use and ability to generate reports on the productivity and effectiveness of our past bids. I went from inputing about 30% of the information Building Connected has available in my own excel spreadsheet for at least 2-3 hours per day to letting the program do its job and running reports at my leisure!

Cons:

Occasionally, the website locks up and causes some frustration with my sales team, but they all agree that we can never go back!

Reasons for choosing BuildingConnected

I liked the layout better, and of course the automated data analysis was a must have. iSqft just can't compete with that!

Building Connected is Cutting Edge

The ease of accessing subcontractors across the United States is amazing. Instead of using several different sources it now cut down to using BC and maybe one or two others.

Functionality

Pros:

The access to subcontractors all over the country. The analytics provided by the program to track and compare projects solicited. The constant improvement of the program and how it evolves. The ability to be very dynamic and flexible. The ease of use and set up supersedes other programs tried in the past.

Cons:

The up-keep of contact information and how to update it. Populating relevant vendors for scopes of work for the area of work to be performed in.

Reasons for switching to BuildingConnected

The access to new vendors and the ease of adding vendors. The platform was laid out better and easier to navigate.

Could be better

If the problems shown above are corrected I would describe as good.

Functionality

Pros:

Allows us to send bids in our area to many subcontractors.

Cons:

1) Impossible to use in iPhone. 2) Comments are not valued by Buildingconnected Management 3) Mixes apples and oranges when it comes to UNION versus OPEN SHOP Subs, it needs serious revamping. 4) Ditto regarding the mix of subs, painters show under electrical subs. This needs a complete revamp, as well. 5) The selection of dates is cumbersome as the calendar "moves" up and down instead of being located in the same place when changing months. 6) During the set up of project one cannot pick a date for the RFI date. 7) The cursor does not automatically go to the proper location to start typing, instead it necessitates the use of the mouse to move the cursor there. This should be for ALL cases where one needs to type information. 8) There is too many BAD EMAIL ADDRESSES identified in the database that NEVER get corrected. There needs to be an earnest effort coming from the very top to keep the DATABASE in ship shape. We pay WAY TOO much money for this to be the case. 9) There needs to be more refinement within the categories available to pick subs from the standard 16 CSI divisions. For instance, there is a huge difference between a sub who makes and installs the coolers and freezer boxes and those who do the refrigeration for them, such difference is not considered in the options.

Reasons for choosing BuildingConnected

Sounded good with a large database of subs. Good sales job.

Reasons for switching to BuildingConnected

I was promised a better database (one that is intuitive and larger).

Great product, best on the market

We have been more than pleased, it has been a good purchase for us without a doubt.

Functionality

Pros:

Document control and ease of use. The document management has paid for the cost of the software by documenting who has accessed documents and when they were accessed. Also, the ease of use has significantly decreased the amount of time that we spend assisting subcontractors and vendors in pre-construction.

Cons:

It would be great to be able to view a document rather than having to download the file first. There should also be some flexibility in formatting, data selection for reports.

Reasons for choosing BuildingConnected

We found it to be the best overall as far as features & ease of use vs. price.

Reasons for switching to BuildingConnected

The previous software was very difficult to navigate for both us and subcontractors.

Streamlined & Simple

We've eliminated a substantial amount of the risk in our bid process by having current information available to all team members. It helps us get info out to subcontracts 3 or 4 days faster than we could with our previous process.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Functionality

Pros:

Great for when we have bid teams of 4 or 5 people and having an instant snapshot of where our bid process stands. We have committed to doing detailed bid forms that subs have gotten used to for submitting their proposal and using the breakdown provided.This helps us zero in on the right conversations we should be having with the right subs and makes us more effective during the bid.

Cons:

Our people rely too much on communicating through BC and it reduces the amount of phone conversations where we believe we learn a substantial amount more that a line item on the bid form.

Reasons for choosing BuildingConnected

Helped that we used the free product for a year before committing to Pro. Cost was also extremely competitive. Final decision was made meeting [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] at an event BC hosted here in Atlanta.

The leveling section is such a time saver. We can look at everything one screen, make adjustments and go with a final number on bid day seamlessly. A real time saver. A great tool to show owners and clients that we have done our homework and selected the lowest most qualified bidder

Be sure you have a strong network and a strong network connection. As the day wears on it can be slow down at bit

After the initial the project setup this accelerates the the issuing of new documents and messages. This has saved my team a lot of time and headaches compared to the old way of email the subcontractors.

Cons:

I would like to customize features to better work for our company and be able to load larger file sizes.

Amazing Product for Construction Bidding

Overall I think this is a great software and extremely helpful for our business and many other subcontractors. It helps organize bid invites and provides a way for new General Contractors to get their bid invites to us, even if they have never worked with us before.

Pros:

It is a great way to see all currently bidding and past bid projects. It conveniently lets you submit your proposal to General Contractors, set up a follow up date, and revise your proposal as needed. It also lets you look at the drawings without downloading them through their website.

Cons:

Sometimes the feature to look at the drawings doesn't work properly, and you are forced to download them. Also often when it does work it is rather slow, but it is still a nice feature to have so you can see if they are worth downloading or not.
