The cost was also much more competitive than several other options, which is a nice benefit.

The ease of use is fantastic. Ability to import new drawings and revised drawings is great.

The customer service at FastEst is the best I have experienced with a software company. You can always get technical hands on help from their team.

Fastest is a wonderful program. If you are looking to bid and win more jobs this is the product to buy.

There is a lack of shortcut keys. All steps need to be repeatedly clicked which can be arduous when performing common tasks.

I like the ability to change almost everything. I like that it was able to be customized to our needs as a company even in the little things.

It has an easy interface from Plan Loading to Spec Adjustments to takeoff ease. The other feature we like is a direct transfer of the outputted data onto a very user friendly bidding spreadsheet.

The inability to enlarge revised plans when importing. Sometimes it is hard to tell which plan you have.

Great customer service when ever I have issues with software bugs. I really like the way the actual estimating interface is set up especially on the two screens.

IT was very easy to start right out of the box. Their support staff quickly helps you get up and running with custom features.

Sometimes we lost data that we did not saved on time.

Very user friendly, great features, up to date with list pricing. Excellent customer service.

I am overall comfortable with the program. The updates have been good and when help was needed, your response has been excellent.

Ease of use and customization. The recap sheets allow you to make the adjustments unique to you and your company or market as needed.

Very useful and helpful to price up anything related to construction.

There is no way to square foot an area in the takeoff.

The best thing is not having to print and flip through all the drawings.

Great customer service, we have built up a relationship with the guys both professionally and personally.

THE ABILITY TO INCREASE THE PLAN SIZE IN TAKEOFF IS A GREAT ASSET AS YOU CAN PRINT THE VISIBLE PORTION ONLY IF REQUIRED.

Showing costs to customers like change orders are awesome. Very hard for them to argue costs.

It takes us about 30 minutes to set up a project and it's really inefficient (and frustrating) the way it is set up now.

We have been as a team trying to migrate the current construction projects into Red Team but have struggled through the process.

Know your Project Managers' IT capability and commitment before buying this.

Its given us the ability to centralize our estimating process such as entering inventory items and getting pricing from subs. This has saved us a good amount of time.

Like I said, Know your Project Managers' IT capability and commitment before buying this.

You can manage all your job costs in this software and it has a great integration with QuickBooks Online. It is very easy to use and provides a lot of project management functionality.

It is an all in one project correspondence to customer, accounting, subcontractors, and suppliers. I like its user friendly built and its professional look on their templates.

The training is key to success. We are absolutely thrilled with our purchase after doing a great deal of research and love the customer service.

RedTeam makes it easy to access construction drawings so that we can quickly determine what on the project we can provide pricing on.

What I liked most about this software is how well it helps us keep track of any project at any time.

This is my first time using construction software and I couldn't be happier with ease of use and the customer support. I have been so impressed with the technical support that I have received.

My overall experience with Red Team was really great. It allows everyone on our team (contractors, employees and the clients) to keep in touch and know what is required and when.

Too convoluted; no local support; no real training other than videos, subs didn't respond, not for people who don't like computers (my superintendents are very old school).

The formatting of the documents for printing is very bad - light blue and gray fonts don’t print or copy well. It also is formatted such that it uses a lot of paper to print and could be condensed.

It also has the affordability that smaller businesses will be able to utilize this application as an advantage.

The Progress Reports and the ability to capture photo's and upload them from the mobile app is also a great feature. Billing through RT is quick and easy.
