Manpower Scheduling for Heavy Civil Contractors

[sensitive content hidden] set the bar for responsiveness to our requests. They are able to tell you quickly how much work something will take and the easy ones were usually done in a matter of hours!

PROS

Control Board is able to configure the way the software works to produce exactly what we need out of it. Custom Programing is available but very little was needed.

CONS

There are a lot of views, reports and pages. Sometimes it is tough to remember how to get to a certain report that you do not use often.

Reasons for switching to ControlBoard

It was too hard to report back on the schedule info that was in Saviom especially on a team or division level.

Tracking and Scheduling Jobs and Employees with ControlBoard

Overall the experience with ControlBoard has been great. We get excellent support when needed and it meets all of our scheduling needs.

PROS

ControlBoard made it easy to import jobs from Sage 100 Contractor and assign employees to work on those jobs.

CONS

Unfortunately, Nothing comes to mind. Everything works great.

Reason for choosing ControlBoard

Sage 300 Project Management was too expensive and Exaktime did not have the ghant chart views that we needed at the time and we could not schedule out a a project from a long period of time.

Reasons for switching to ControlBoard

Making changes on the fly were difficult and we needed a system that was integrated with Sage 100 Contractor.

Easy scheduling app for Trucks and Resources

PROS

Scheduling of jobs and resources is easy and eliminates the need to communicate with multiple parties each day. Changes to schedules and notes can easily be rolled out to every user and the mass text messaging option makes communicating changes and issues easy.

CONS

From an operations role, when looking into the job schedule it can be bulky and the interface can be busy.

The back button does not bring you back to the previous page so users need to get used to it.

Excel does not give us alert when a person is overbooked and it is easy to delete things on the file with no record.
