Beck Technology is extremely responsive and fully supports the product.

The greatest pro of Estimator is the ability to easily sort and display pricing, allowing for changes and updates to made easily.

It is great having all aspects of the project under one platform from takeoff to reporting.

The overall experience is a breath of fresh air in our industry. Not only do we utilize DESTINI Estimator for estimating but it has become a marketing tool for our company.

Great, we are very pleased with Destini Estimator.

The features are very good, it has great reporting features and different ways of presenting the cost, for much easier analysis.

Having access to the people that design the software and understand your questions is huge.

Additionally,  we ran into a lot of issues with crashing when our department first began using estimator, due to this many of our estimators are still hesitant about using the software.

Very user friendly, easy for new employees to pick up and start using right a way.

Implementation of the features sold are slow to materialize and the takeoff tool is terrible.

We enjoy the versatility Destini Estimator provides. The way estimates can function between takeoff, project information, and the dashboard puts this software a tier above the rest.

We especially enjoy having all our estimates in a single database for quick resourcing of historical costs and enterprise level collaboration.

I think estimator is a great program that will be great once certain features are introduced to assist overall workflow.

The integration with BIM 360 and the ability to utilize the design files (Revit) has a huge impact on our estimating effort, significantly reducing the time it takes to create an estimate.

Beck-Tech has a tremendous support team to help with issues, bugs and general how-to's. The flexibility of the software allows the user to bend it to his/her will.

I like that the software takes your from start to finish. There is not need to use any other software to prepare an estimate.

No available online tutorials. Need realistic set in stone dates for releases of required updates.

Implementation needs to be more standardized,  the support and implementation teams have done everything they can but the development of the program is lagging.

The challenge with cloud based deployment and use is you loose connectivity if your internet connection goes down.

Don't really have any, just the internal struggle to keep up with their releases.

Flexibility in switching between cost codes / WBS's. Integrated Takeoff within suite.

I do like that you can take Revit models and download that for quick takeoff. However it is only as good as the modeling imported by the architect.

The BIM 360 tool is one of the most impressive features and the ability to pull quantities for the estimate from the model.

The BIM 360 integration is what we are most excited about in the future as this tool is increasingly used and as architects continue to develop their models.

I have extensive experience creating takeoff assemblies inside the program and have been pleased with the ease with which it can be done. Creating reports seems non-user friendly.

Screens are actually a bit complicated to open and arrange. Loses the quantity formulas that originated from D-Profiler.

Another great pro is the support staff from Beck Technologies -- the best customer service I have ever had from a software company.

DEstimator has been a great tool for us in our estimating process.

Great 3D takeoff features but if you are in early stages of design you can't only rely on BIM models. You can't allow your estimate to be as good as your BIM model.

They are a company who listens to their costumers needs and have dedicated themselves to further enhancing the software.

Running reports has been an awful experience. It seems as though they need to clean up their programming.

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.

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

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.

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 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.
