The best tendering software on the internet
Swiftender is super easy to use and navigate around. It literally took 15 minutes to completely walk-through the tool before my team had it mastered. Since switching to Swiftender, our Subcontractor engagement has nearly doubled, while our efforts in chasing them down for quotes has significantly decreased by 70-80%, freeing up precious time for our admin staff. Customer support is also excellent. Questions are always handled with a sense of urgency. As a Business Development Manager within the construction industry, I have worked with over a dozen tendering platforms. In my opinion, In terms of cost, value, ease of use, functionality, effectiveness, customer service and support, and aesthetically, Swiftender is the BEST tendering software on the market.
PROSWhat I like most about Swiftender is that the OASISCODE team are dedicated to serving their clients and are always open to suggestions that will enhance the software while adding even more value for their clients. Yesterday I logged in to discover new functionalities, reporting and analytics options.
CONSCons are non existent. The tool does everything I need and more.

Tender Platform
Once we took the time to input our contacts and customize the layout there wasn't much of a learning curve to run the program.
CONSThere are no issues at this point. If there was a (one click) access to monitor the actions of our invitees that would be helpful.
Reasons for switching to Swiftender
Product support. Rising cost of the product.

swiftender Review
i enjoy that the software is easy to use, and I can always tell what s going on at a glance. i think that the file sharing mechanism is quick and easy to use, and it is very easy ot learn how to use the software.
CONSi think that the file sharing system could use some more variety in the file types it supports, and I think that the program overall could maybe use google drive integration or something to make sharing files easier for the user.

Estimating Database Control
Great - Great Team & Great Product.
PROS1. I like how Switftender allows/encourages their users to be involved in the evolution of the system. 2. I like the control I have over my database 3. I like how Swiftender is not trying to monopolize my sub-trades with fees 4. I like how easy and intuitive the system is for not only my staff but my sub-trades
CONSIt's only real downfall is it's lack of security in terms of document control once you send a link. While having an active link that stays current no matter how many revisions you make to the document upload (dashboard) is a great feature and allows sub-trades ease of access throughout their supply chain and internally. It poses a security issue because once I send a link to the documents that link can be forwarded and shared outside of my control. My belief is that this is manageable by the Contractor and thought should always go into who you share information with - However I would like the ability to block/delete an invitation from access or at least be able to monitor/track who has used it. In the grand scheme of things my 4 pros above outweigh this issue, but nonetheless my hope is that this issue would be addressed/resolved in the future. Shayan and his team are great and over the last few years I have used this program I have seen the growth and believe in the direction of the programs evolution.
Reasons for switching to Swiftender
Better control over my database.
Vendor Response
Thanks for your review, Matt. Customer insights like yours are essential for making SWIFTENDER enhancements and launching new features. Additional document control options were added in a recent update. You have the option to password protect the e-plan room on a project-by-project basis. Further, you can always remove someone from an invitation list which will rescind their access to the e-plan room. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need assistance with these or other features. We are standing by to help. Again, thanks for leaving your review.

This is a great product for General Contractors sending out Tenders to Subcontractors
Swiftender has been a great addition to our tendering process. The ease of use for both the general contractor and the subcontractor is what stands out. The peole that developed the program have been very helpful and prompt with support.
PROSThe feature we most liked ws the idea that we can choose all of our subcontractors needed to get pricing from, in multiple divisions, and customize the invitation list. The fact that the subcontractors can access the plans room without the need of a password was a big plus.
CONSOnce you upload the tender documents, they are unable to be altered. You can issue a revision, however, then there are multiple emails going out to the subcontractors, which can get annoying. I believe there is a solution for this being issued in the next update.
Reason for choosing Swiftender
Swiftender offered a better product than the one we were using.
