Pros/Cons
Pros
- 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.
- The ability to use existing formulas from historical jobs creates and ease and confidence when pricing. I love the take-off options, that can be used on-site and for others to price.
- My experience with Buildexact so far has been extremely helpful integration with suppliers is fantastic making quoting a lot more streamlined.
Cons
- There is no undo button when quoting or give me an option to lock a template, I accidentally deleted lines of my template and lost a lot of info.
- The variation function is limited at times as you cant use recipes to price them up quickly.
- With cost plus’s Client reports are hard and timely, can’t print and show them cost tracking v estimate.
Pros
- During that time have looked at other software and keep coming back to clear estimates because of ease and reliability. I recommend it highly , once you set up your templates you are good to go.
- With the new search feature, I am now extremely happy with this product and am very glad to have found it.
- Clear Estimates seemed to have ease of use and great customer service. The guy you speak with is VERY nice and understanding of your needs.
Cons
- I forgot to shut it down and then got charged for two additional months at $59 a pop.
- It does lack pricing on impact windows , and pricing on roof trusses are off.
- Reports page needs more options. You should be able to put the disclaimer, project disruption etc.
