Quick and easy to use
overall kreo has been q uick and easy to use the software is great, the cut out tool and easy fast measurement tools available making takeoffs extremely easy and making my job a lot easier, this means i can send my jobs in in a much quicker time and complete more jobs in a short period of time.
PROSthe cut out tool and easy fast measurement tools available making takeoffs super easy and making my job a lot easier, this means i can send my jobs in in a much quicker time and complete more jobs in a short period of time.
CONSthe fact kreo is cloud based makes it difficult during days in which the wifi may be down or in which we may have any issues with technology although the actual working software is great.
Reasons for switching to Kreo Software
because bluebeam stopped supporting mac and kreo is easy to use and effective

Flooring Takeoff
Good. Although i think there are many areas for improvement i believe this is a positive step forward for the flooring industry.
PROSThe best thing about Kreo is the AI assisted take off. I find auto measure can be a little messy and i spend as much time organizing the data as i would have doing a normal takeoff
CONSConfusing left hand panel where is shows products.
Reasons for switching to Kreo Software
Speed. Ai assistance to speed up the process.

Good software, but still need some improvements
- Auto-count function really helps to save a lot of time - The software let you organize your takeoffs in folders, which helps our organization in bigger project - The website is well-optimized in RAM consuption, which was a problem with the other takeoff software I used
CONSSome functions still need to be implemented, like: - Let you cut areas from inside to make "roles" on the takeoff - Let the user insert manually the line sizes - Give the user a easier way to edit takeoffs, such keeping square areas still square while moving a point

A brilliant product with growing potential
Overall experience has been great with high levels of support offered by the company's support team with use of this measurement software having saved large amounts of time when compiling and using raw measurement data to assemble BoQs and budgets for our clients with it being a significant improvement over our previous measurement software.
PROSKreo's takeoff software has been exceptionally easy to learn and its in house tutorials and support from both automatic bot and in house staff are very useful especially when requesting help with issues relating to data recovery and scaling options.
CONSintial lack of intergration with Microsoft Excel however this is now been added allowing us to directly import take-off templates into the program and reduce time taken to turn raw measurement into usable BoQs and budgets.

Streamlining Takeoffs
I liked how easy it was to takeoff drawings and how the customer support was so responsive when i needed help.
CONSSometimes the response was a little laggy as the software is cloud based but this was only a small amount of times.

Kreo Software
Overall Kreo has allowed me to see that 2D measurement can be made quicker and more effective through the use of AI and a user-friendly interface.
PROSKreo makes measuring very quick and efficient, this is through their software and their AI capabilites. This makes 2D take-offs for simple cost plans or estimates simple.
CONSI wish there was more options relating to the AI feature such as being able to differentiate the different wall types or ceiling types etc through how their displayed on the drawing such as different colour or hatching.

We are enabling our staff to be able to spend less time on quantification and more time on the analysis and insight pieces of cost planning, the value add section
PROSThe userbility of the software, views between measures, schedules and drawings and the intelligence of the AI that is being implemented
CONSThe speed issues brought around with cloud based softwares
Reason for choosing Kreo Software

good software
In the large part it's very intuitive when compared to other measurment packages. Could use improved cost planning functionality on the app though. other software such as cost-x is a lot more advanced in this realm. also axonometric drawings for walls off 2d plans would be very beneficial!
PROSVery Easy to learn to use/get started on.
CONSFolders setup isn't ideal. Would be useful to be able to duplicate folder structures whilst empty so can use for various building or units. Replicate same structure quickly

Overall very helpful and time saving
It just saves me time over manual take off, lots of time. drawing a line in the PDF and that measurement collating directly into an excel, and then having a marked up drawing is like doing three operations in one. even without the AI features this is a huge time saving win.
PROSThe product is easy to use and get your head around. I like the integration of uploading PDFs and drawing on them and exporting those drawings. also being able to measure and that measurement filling in a spreadsheet is excellent, saves so much time. The document search functions are really helpful too to make sure you don't miss anything.
CONSThe AI function is very hit and miss on the particular drawings we use, which are full of info. i generally don't use any AI function. The excel sheets are a little bit clunky, i normally do the basic i can with the integrated excel and then export it into actual excel for refinement.

Great product
Kreo has saved me on average 40% of my time in terms of the time I used to take to manually take off drawings. The product is great, it is accurate and it is easy to use / learn. I have recommended and will continue to recommend the product! I only wish I had come up with it first or at least found it years ago!
CONSI dont have any negative comments to make about Kreo

User friendly and intuitive software which simplifies the take off process
Very positive so far
PROSSnapping to corners makes measuring quick. Exporting measured plans in dark mode makes our work area far more visible
CONSthe work window for the drawing is a little compressed, i'd prefer the ability to minimise all the other windows/toolbars so I can make the plan bigger

Kreo is user friendly and saves time when measuring quantities.
Kreo does save time when measuring floor plans with the AI feature. It does however, need to be further developed to measure all types of drawings which would have a significant impact on time saving across our business.
PROSI like how easy the software is to use, no real training require for the basic functions. The AI feature is also very good for the floor plan measures.
CONSI could not figure out how to do a negative measure, this could be down to training though. I would also like the software to be able to AI measure on more than just floor plans, such as steelwork and elevations.

Overall, really happy with the product.
PROSThe software is really user-friendly, everything is easy to pick up and work with. Customer service is really responsive when you do have queries.
CONSThe input of measurements into the excel template on Kreo could be improved slightly to work progressively as you measure, however, it's simple enough to work around.
