The best platform help improve communication between suppliers and the project team.

As a result of this program, modifications to the work schedule are more realistic because of the accurate information it provides about when the items will arrive on site.

PROS

Company supply baskets, including invoices, quotations, and requests, need to be clearly communicated to all employees. This is a critical program for firms. All staff members will receive updates and alerts from BuildPro in a timely manner, ensuring that all requests are up-to-date and being followed up on. To further reduce the likelihood of supply chain disruptions, BuildPro will help improve communication between suppliers and the project team.

CONS

It's all good, BuildPro is simple to use, and there are no challenges in learning how to enter data and follow up on tasks assigned by the users.

Terrific scheduling and communication tool!

As our trade partners come to trust our scheduling and communication through BuildPro, they gain more faith in us as a builder. That trust level and the ease of submitting and completing items for payment makes us the builder of choice

PROS

I love the ease of scheduling, rescheduling, and communicating with our trade partners. Being able to track schedule changes and review performance based on that data allows me to have constant control of my schedule, making me more effective and efficient.

CONS

Occasional bugs and failures are frustrating. Spending time to create a schedule only to have the system fail and lose my dates is very frustrating. Errors with sending notes is too common

BuildPro review

Overall I think BuildPro is a good product that needs a face lift/update been using it since early 2000's. Technology has come a long way and BuildPro is still the same 20 years later as far as user interface . I like that BuildPro is a single point scheduling and payment tool that can be accessed from any device with an internet connection.

PROS

I like the multiple ways BuildPro can be used to schedule via JME, To Do List & Box. I also like the alerts and notifications that keep the CM engaged and in tune with their jobs.

CONS

I recently had to work on templates. I found it very arduous and time consuming. Too much button clicking my hand was sore & swollen by the end of the day. Took me all day to update a hand full of templates. Also in the reports some of the fields are not descriptive. For example some reports just say "Date" I have know idea is it the start date scheduled date completed date. Also need to be able to run EPO by completed date that is what matters is when the money is spent. Searching by created date doesn't allow you to see true costs for a month week day etc

Helpful Software - Still growing up

As stated we fully believe that BuildPro works. We are working through the minor issues with schedules easily. We are unsure of the supplier side communications. We also have strong feelings that the Admin resources are lacking enough information to be useful at this time.

PROS

I like that the software fills a gap for builders and had created the standard for a cross functional communicator for builders and sub-contractors. I have no doubt that the programmers are constantly working for improvements. From a general contracting perspective the schedule tool functions nicely and new add on features so far have been welcome.

CONS

Reports. The so-called canned reports are not designed with a holistic intent of solid reporting and seem to be whatever someone paid for a report gets dumped in line as an available report. A number of them do not function. I would love to see a report writer that allowed selection of key data to be easily added/subtracted.

BuildPro - user

Reducing the need for printed copies of plans and specifications. Primarily to avoid the need for field staff and work crews to come to the office for these items (especially during the COVID-19 pandemic). Online, the information is available 7x24 as long as you have a device with a web browser. To date, have NOT experienced an outage or issue with accessing the system

PROS

Access to builders' plans and exterior colors/options for us as a subcontractor. Eliminating the need for paper copies for the office, the field supervisor and the work crew. Access through the Internet via web browser on smart phone, tablet or laptop.

CONS

There is a lack of integration between this and other competing products - often need to either do a screen capture, then paste it into a document for import into another system, or downloading a file as a PDF to likewise import/export. Requiring creating own scripts to automate some of this.

Vendor Response

Thank you Jim much appreciated. We always appreciate feedback from our valued customers! Our Customer Experience and Product Development teams continue to make updates and enhancements and we have forwarded your feedback. Thank you again.
