Not pleased. It used to be a much better estimating software. Since the latest major update they system is almost unusable.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 1/5

- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like most of the features and the ease of use when things are working properly. If everything worked as intended I would love it.

The system does not work as designed. Most features do not work properly all the time.

If it were my decision to make, I would migrate to a different estimating platform.

My new employer had McCormick systems and not Accubid

### Low Voltage Estimator

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Paul S.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Electrical/ Electronic Manufacturing
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Very good, it is a quick learning curve on the software. Stable platform, I do really like the new options for "breaking out" jobs". The "online" sales pitches are useful as well.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Mostly very intuitive to use. Auto count for takeoff and the wiring saves a lot of time on estimating.

#### Cons

I do wish on the jobs list, you could search. The Landing has helped a little bit with the most recent jobs on the list. Many jobs go a month or ore out, or even longer. The only way to find them is to sort by name, and hope you named it properly.

#### Reasons for switching to McCormick

Changed companies, Benson purchased the software but was not using. I took over the LV department, required estimating software. Easy to use, very happy with the change.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear that features like Auto Count and wiring are helping speed up your estimating process. Your feedback about job searching is valuable—our team is always exploring ways to enhance navigation, and comments like yours help guide improvements. We’re happy to have you on board and appreciate your support!

#### Pros

I like using McCormick's DEP drawings to show any takeoff I do to the Project Managers in an easy to see and clear visual.

Love it. Make DEP better. Just keep doing what you are doing. You did the things I wanted in V16 and unless you updated the DEP I don't have any more wants or needs. I will be updating to V16 soon and I am very excited.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

The extensive details I can customize and change. Being able to be 100% accurate to the screw while also being able to extremely granular in breaking out bids.

#### Cons

The DEP features and customization are not only underwhelming but are really buggy or broken. The symbol editor is atrocious, and I have gotten the favorites box stuck off screen.

#### Vendor response

We appreciate the high praise—and the specific feedback! It’s great to hear you value McCormick’s customization and detail control. Your notes about DEP and the symbol editor are being shared with our development team for future updates. We're excited for you to move to V16 and can’t wait to hear what you think!

### Fantastic estimating tool

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Rob H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Construction
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I have been using McCormick for the last 5 years and love it. I previously used Accubid for 10 years, and ConEst and Estimation for a few years before that. McCormick is the best by far in my opinion. I love how they are constantly improving the platform.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

There are so many thing to like about McCormick. The biggest one for me is the onscreen take-off (PRO-DEP). With this tool, I can save reprographic costs, and complete my take-off in a fraction of the time is would take without the tool.

#### Cons

Sometimes the user interface is clunky. It can be a little bit of a chore to edit assemblies. It would be nice to travel to an item based on database line item (for the most common items).

#### Vendor response

Thank you so much for your detailed and enthusiastic review! We're thrilled to hear how much PRO-DEP and the onscreen takeoff tools have streamlined your estimating process and reduced costs. We also appreciate your suggestions regarding interface improvements and database navigation—feedback like yours helps us prioritize enhancements. Thanks for being a loyal user and for making McCormick your preferred estimating solution!

- Reviewer: Jason P.
- Verified reviewer: Yes

- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Overall, it is a good product for estimating. I wish there were fewer updates and changes, because it seems like they create more glitches and problems trying to come out with updates all the time.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The ability to have multiple users working on the same job for takeoff.

#### Cons

There seems to be some glitches in the bid summary section that we have to double-check to make sure that tax gets applied. Getting some more low-voltage items in the database would be helpful too.

The training that comes along with the software is great and very informative.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Well laid out, 5 steps not a lot of redundant tasks and highly confogurable. I am able to group assemblies and redundant tasks, duplicate a common package and save different versions. The plan counting is super clean and easy to use. Saves tons of time.

#### Cons

Invest in this software wisely. Don’t over spend on seats if you are new to estimating. No cons, but be advised that you should look into a cloud system for deployment over thin client or Mac. Otherwise great software!

The McCormick System was fairly easy to adapt to and begin estimations right out of the box. Their support was responsive and helpful. Trade based tutorials were not specific enough. There was no training manual available, only online tutorials and help videos. I have been awarded several contracts since the implementation of the McCormick System and applaud their efforts to continue to improve the software.

#### Ratings breakdown

No manual available. Price intergration with Traser X is not accurate. Some items in database are irrelevant .

### Great software that fits are needs now & will allow for future growth

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Matt B.

- Product usage: Used unspecified for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: October 2015

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4.5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The following are the top reasons we selected McCormick Systems software as our in-house takeoff software: 1) Customer service, specifically our Account Rep Dylan 2) Easy of use 3) Capabilities of the software 4) Price/Value of the software We choose McCormick Systems because their platform is exactly what we needed, it is incredibly user friendly, their customer service and support is fantastic, and the price/value was unmatched. The software allows us to save time and money on our takeoffs immediately; not to mention there is room to grow within the platform at no extra cost to us. Working with everyone at McCormick Systems (from our Account Rep, to the IT Dept, to the VP Sales) has been a true pleasure. A lot of companies say the customer comes first ... but don't always follow through on that promise - McCormick Systems takes that promise to heart!

#### Cons

The installation process and getting the software up and running was difficult. Upon installing the physical software key it created a very large usage drain on our in-house server, resulting in a frustrating lag on all employee terminals and all programs including McCormick Systems software. The good news was that McCormick Systems was great at figuring out a solution, as well as extending our trial period so that we could adequately test out the software prior to purchasing it.
