Reon Paterson, GM- Smith&Sons
outstanding.
Pros
We run a large franchise business across New Zealand and Australia. The fact that it is cloud based makes it very easy for us to use anywhere,anytime. I also like the team and their approach to listening closely to feedback from users, they’re always looking to improve the system.
Cons
Hard to say. The variation function is limited at times as you cant use recipes to price them up quickly.

Product Review
I can now keep up with all quotes & take offs, time is saved massively! Not too mention I can attach all my contracts and save all my templates from all my suppliers, I love it!!
Pros
Keeping up with all our take offs, sending invoices/quotes etc
Cons
No iPhone app, so we can access all costings and other areas that you can from a PC, I have bookmarked the site so I have easy access to some areas of Builxact from my iPhone, that’s the only improvement I can see what will make this software
Reasons for Choosing Buildxact
We use t sheets to keep track off all our employees but t sheets does not talk as well with Buildxact as we hoped for, the only app that does we trailed and didn’t match our criteria off keeping track of our profit and loss on each job,

They had Money guaranty but
it was ease to use CRM online but you no need spent money and time if you have some computer skills.. offering services and giving services is opposite. if you are professional constructor please do not give them chance to they get your 2 or more money without you permit. when you want to cancel your account and unsubscribe they can stall you!
Pros
They had give money guaranty premises but... (read cons)
Cons
I had try to learn and use for long time but it was waste money and time and customer service annoyed enough to make me crazy...

10 out of 10
Pros
The ease of being able to transfer a price list to Build Xact and supply a formal quote all in one place is amazing. All integrated with Xero !!
Cons
Cannot see the final price figure including mark up, on the quoting system before opening the quote.
Reasons for Switching to Buildxact
Build Xact seemed to have everything we were after and could be integrated with Xero
