CMiC Software

Once the quirks are learned, very useful

Pros

This product is very helpful for contract forecasting and owner billing.

Cons

Often times this product quits and does not save your work for no reason which can be very frustrating.

Outdated interface

It got the job done, but navigating through the system and printing reports felt very inefficient. I would dread the days I needed to print and provide my weekly reports because of how many man hours it would take to get all the necessary information sorted and produced for our update meetings.

Pros

CMiC is definitely capable of being your one stop shop for your construction management needs. It can link all aspects of a project into a single program which is convenient and the various reports can be set up to talk to each other and share input and information

Cons

Like most mass data collection and sorting software, the user interface could use some work. Searching for things and printing reports was often cumbersome and sometimes not very intuitive. One issue is the lack of customization for reports. I found it easier to export the raw data into excel and create my own report and sort functions to provide the type of analysis my managers were looking for.

A system that functions

I used many software, and I would rather create my own spreadsheets than suffer with this software any longer.

Pros

It combines project management, accounting, and other aspects into one location with one log in. That's really it.

Cons

It is extremely slow, I mean really slow, you can hear your clock tick as the circle rotates. The system is extremely difficult to follow. Terminology is inconsistent, owner billing module is extremely slow and lacks basic filter or shortcut features. I could go on for days.

CMiC best construction software!

Pros

CMiC software help me to manage all my transaction records and control material cost i really love this software.

Cons

So far i have no issue with this software and i can use it everywhere on my phone great job to the developer who made this very useful tools software!

FRUSTRATING!!!!

Lean on other users and user groups.

Pros

Very robust system with strong features and capabilities, if you throw enough money at it. $$$$$$$$

Cons

Terrible implementation leadership. Expensive. Overgrown and understaffed. System requires a lot more resources than the company represents. Requires a lot of consulting resources and in-house resources. Information output is useless in the base product. Requires outside resources and training to build useful information tools to run your business. Getting a response from your implementation team is a challenge. Company does not perform quality assurance on its product, you end up performing quality assurance for them.

Good to have

Pros

my construction company has this software to organize all of our information. I dont use it all the time; it is more for our field employees. But when I do use it, it is user friendly.

Cons

I dont know if it is our servers but CMIC either goes slow or cuts out at least once a week.

CMiC Review

Pros

What I like most about this software is that you have two different sides to this software which you can work on accounting entering upload and processing to a work flow where you can have uper management approval invoices for payment so it’s like two sets of eyes liking at your work before you process payment. We have a project side where each project manager can see owl and what is going on in their projects

Cons

The software still haves a lot of glitches.

CMIC review

It was not very pleasant, more often than not i spent attempting to locate files and navigate an overly complicated layout.

Pros

at least you have your documents in one place that is searchable.

Cons

Interface feels as if in 1985, can be really confusing to save and upload dailies and prints. consistently shuts down and will not allow you to move forward or randomly deletes files, also even if you send documents and it creates a trail, there were more than a few times that the documents never made it to destination.

The only good ERP is your last one, and your next one - CMiC does an OK job

Pros

It handles many of the financial and documentation needs of our company, and has the potential to cover others.

Cons

The interface is very out-dated and hard to use (particular on mobile browsers), it requires constant maintenance, patching, and testing. It's expensive to integrate with things

Tricky Customization

We've been using another similar software for many years and recently switched to CMiC. The transition has been time consuming but the end result should justify the cost. We're looking forward to having the software fully implemented.

Pros

I love that we're able to replace 3-4 different softwares with 1 (CMiC). We were able to combine most of our company's departments into this one software which allows more seamless distribution of information. It's a powerful software that can be customized to meet our company's individual needs.

Cons

Customization was a very long process and we're still discovering issues as we roll it out to our employees.

It's user friendly once I got used to it.

Pros

The AR portion is much easier to use than our previous software. I really like the reports that can be generated once CMIC was able to customize them for PBI.

Cons

It requires lots of patience. If you can get past the trial and error portion to customize the system for your needs it's a pretty good investment.

Very user friendly software

Pros

Pros:
1. Very easy to use
2. We can customized reports based on our requirements
3. Centralized database

Cons

Some reports need an improvement, but not a big issue.. CMiC really satisfies me..... good job

End user only, but have found software difficult to use

Pros

Allows subcontractors the ability to have access to the project information, such as Submittals, RFIs, etc

Cons

Difficult to navigate, and upload information; have had several incidences where RFIs/Submittals that have been submitted using CMiC somehow are not processed

I use CMiC daily for managing money associated with construction projects.

Pros

The feature that I like most about using CMiC is how much information associated with my project is easily accessible in the program. Contracts are stored in the program and multiple financial reports are easy to collect with a click of the button.

Cons

If you are new to using the program, it is hard to utilize the software right out of the gate. Getting started with CMiC is not the easiest to navigate. This program is very smart and there is a lot of information stored within it.

Manage and manage your Project with this Solid Tool.

Pros

Used in my organization for the continuous administration of projects, allows you to be aware of all the details of the Project thanks to its variety of tool, has a very good technical support.
It allows you to get details of expenses, cost, quotes and has a very solid and reliable system.
recommended

Cons

It is important to maintain good speed on your computer since the software tends to be a bit slow when you use it.
Expensive depending on what you need in your organization.
It is important to be clear about waiting for this software before acquiring it, since it tends to be expensive.

System offers many capabilities however is slow and kicks you out often

Wish the software was faster

Pros

Easy to run reports, query data, is efficient in some areas oppose to our previous software, it allows up to upload images which is paper efficient.

Cons

System very slow, especially after 3:30, its not forgiving, sometimes kicks you out in the middles of data entry, does not allow you to view previous screen in some areas.

Excellent management of architectural projects

Very good experience, the project management department works more comfortable since they started using this platform, some things to improve but we trust that they will achieve it

Pros

Excellent tool for the administration of architectural projects, Great technical support in billing. It has very reliable and efficient integrated systems

Cons

An interface somewhat complicated to understand, but its main counter is that it has problems with the development of reports when we want to extract important data

Sometimes I feel that there are too many navigational panes options.

Pros

What I like most is the detail in the job cost reports as well as the drill down detail options. Cost affordable.

Cons

Having used both Procore and CMIC , CMIC seam to take longer to understand how to navigate through.

CMIC

Pros

Good working environment, you get to meet professionals. The management implements what is needed to make the job done.

Cons

Almost everything is controlled from the Japanese Headquarters. Discrimination on race is a problem.

Good Value

Pros

CMiC is a great value pm/payroll software we have been using for many years. The connection with the software and our database is instant and never had a problem.

Cons

The software needs some time to get use to, once pass that phase, it will make everything you do with it much easier.
