Pros / Cons
  • Best part is it saves time, money AND creates a customer experience as they view their interactive estimate that I would have no way of replicating without Bolster.
  • Some of our assemblies we've built and inputted all the pricing have not been accurate when presenting with clients

  • My company since starting with Jobtread being able to estimate and build proposals and track our jobs has helped me to grow our company over 1600% in the last three years.
  • For example when I update a cost item in the Catalog it doesn’t update the pricing/quantities/formulas/margins in cost groups so that means I have to go through each cost group again and change it manually over and over again.
