The variation function is limited at times as you cant use recipes to price them up quickly.

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.

Very good and usefull program. I love that you can speak directly to developers.

I like the seamless integration between Xero and buildxact.

It ensures money is saved during the estimating process and margins are clearly identified. Buildxact streamlines efficiencies and frees up time for you to run the business.

They take all the wish list from users and continue to improve which is awesome knowing it will grow as we grow.

Excellent isnt a better package out there to suit my needs.

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.

Super easy to use, a great tool for tendering and beyond.

Job Tracking and Management. What else can i say its the all rounder package that has given me the advantage in winning more work.

Buildxact is a comprehensive estimating and job tracking software package for builders and building companies of all sizes.

Great software and they are continually improving their service offering.

When i was introduced by my employer to this software i loved it from that first time. Im not too flashy on pricing & setting jobs up but BXT has helped me alot.

They have been fantastic to deal with and we love the software.

Buildxact has been an extremely effective business support tool for our network of builders providing them virtually one place to run their business.

The support team are responsive and helpful. Definitely increases productivity and efficiencies - saving time and money.

They continually run sessions on their updates to ensure you are across them. All of their support are based in Melbourne and Australian owned company which is great for local business.

The system is great in ensuring you get 'take offs' right and mange that process well.

With cost plus’s Client reports are hard and timely, can’t print and show them cost tracking v estimate.

My experience with Buildexact so far has been extremely helpful integration with suppliers is fantastic making quoting a lot more streamlined.

My overall experience with Buildxact is great. Estimates are Professional and build confidence in your clients.

Very easy to use interface. Am still to complete the training which I am sure will help improve my efficacy using the program.

Hands down the best product I have ever used. Their technical support is beyond the best that I have ever encountered in any product.

Overall its the best Estimating/takeoff cloud based system. I highly recommend it to all business in the construction industry.

The team was really great, they got us set up with a free trial. Ultimately it wasn't a great fit for our company.

Great system for a small building company it’s streamlined our office so everyone is looking at the same thing.

The company and people are fantastic and are certainly head in the right direction with a lot of great ideas.

The ease of tracking costs when integrated with Xero has made administering projects ever so simple. To follow a project from conception to completion is priceless.

The program isn't quite ready for the level of detail I would prefer to provide to construction clients.

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.

What i love most is how itemised my quotes are & how clear it is to clients.

Also pricing client variations and options is easy. I though our last estimating product was quick and easy to use until we trialed BuildXact.

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.

Great take off tool, easy to use, good graphics for PDF's.

Easy to do take offs and manipulate the software to your individual requirements. The support teams are great, always ready to help you and assist you in getting the most out of the software.

It's easy to use, being able to upload the drawings and do the takeoffs has saved us heaps of time.

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.

Buidxact has sped up our estimating and the templates we've created have made us a lot more efficient.

When you want to cancel your account and unsubscribe they can stall you.

My business management has improved and able to stay on top of my estimates, its ease of use. Professional quotes which make you stand out to others.

I find the Customer Service to be Excellent. Its been an all around great experience and I would Recommend Quickbooks to anyone.

I like the fact that it integrates with a bunch of other things and makes it super useful for invoicing.

It had great tech support, excellent documentation, and superb online help. A great product for a very wide range of businesses.

QuickBooks by Intuit is a great accounting solution for small businesses as it is easy to use and has great support.

The update method and stability of the software is just poor. The file has to be repaired sometimes because it gets corrupted.

It can be a pain when you make a mistake and try to fix it. For some things, there are too many steps to fix the mistake.

Inventory  wtih the option to add photos and ability to connect my bank account are the best parts so far. Integration with a powerful CRM  (Method) that does not cost  a fortune.

This is absolutely ridiculous and appears to be by design. Shame on Intuit for this scheme to rip off its customers.

The ease and user-friendliness of it. It’s definitely a great software to use for reconciling important information.

What I like the most about this super cool software is how easy it is to use compared to other softwares out there.

I am currently shopping for a different software and will be moving all my clients to that. I am extremely disappointed in the approach that was taken to hurt small businesses.

Sometimes the software will freeze up and I'll have to restart it to get it to work again. That is kinda annoying to have to do that.

I love the functionality of it and how user friendly it is. My favorite is integrating the bank and CC for easy reconciliation.

I don’t think there are any missing features or anything that I dislike  about this software.

Good reporting capabilities, ability to customize invoices and other functions is also great. Would recommend online over desktop version.

Seamless integration is a benefit. We have been using it for years and I like the continuous improvements that are made to the platform.

I like the ease of use of Quickbooks. The system is easy to navigate and they have helpful tooltips in case you have a question.

The price is very affordable. Good accounting reports and provides great flexibility with third party applications.

If you switch from the online version to the desktop version, it can be difficult. Also, the data is not automatically backed up so you have a risk of losing your data.

This is the best software for all size organizations. I love that it integrates with my bank account and gives me clear reports with visuals.

The best part about QuickBooks was that it was online and we had the ability to work even though we were not on the office premises and it allowed us to work efficiently and effectively.

Help section is great and very informative. We use the reports feature a lot, and it is awesome to have so many reports to choose from to analyze how our business is doing financially.

Most I love about this software is that it is relieable pretty much good to be recommended for anyone.

In spite of its costs and its less-then-heavenly online assistance, QuickBooks Online wins our Editor's Choice honor for offering the best, thorough, helpful, and usable devices.

I love how easy it is to keep track of our spending and how we are growing. I love how we can send invoices and how accessible their customer service is if you need help.

I really liked how this app is really great for small businesses with employees on-site. Once you learn the software you should be confident that Quickbooks is the best out there in the market.

I love that you can manage your personal and buianess finnances with ease and you have help through out the entire process.
