Pros:

Export to CAD files and PDF, ease of calibration on plans, excellent customer support and regular updates with new features

Cons:

The fact that I have 3 tools using this software by me, logs me out since I only have 1 licence. Depending on need, I may use one of my 2 iPads or my iPhone. It would be great if we could stay logged in all tools.

I have been using ArcSite for over 5 years now and have grown to appreciate all that the program has to offer. A small learning curve, as with any product, but once you use it enough, it becomes second nature and makes you look very good to the homeowner.

Pros:

Ease of use and the support ArcSite provides once you run into any issues. They are extremely supportive and willing to accommodate your specific needs.

Cons:

Requires connectivity to the internet to produce the proposal, but there is no way around that issue. Just some places tend to be harder to connect and upload than it should be.

Reasons for switching to ArcSite

Cost and lack of support. CAD was great to use but they wanted way too much money for their support.

Vendor Response

Hi, Paul. Thanks for the feedback, glad you're getting a lot of value out of ArcSite. We're working on some new enhancements to our proposal tool to make it more friendly via mobile and tablet. If interested, we could add you to our Beta which should be happening in the next few months. If interested, feel free to reach out! Cheers. ArcSite

Still a good value, but unresolved bugs have us checking alternatives again

I have previously reviewed Arcsite on Capterra, but am removing stars based on our recent experience. At this overall performance level and price point, the app is a good, but no longer compelling value.

Functionality

Pros:

This is an excellent app designed primarily for field diagramming. With it, we are able to create building diagrams quickly for our building inspection reports. In-app draining controls are well thought out to quickly layout and then fine tune as needed, with advanced controls. It exports to pdf, dwg, png and other formats and offers cloud backups too. A perfect marriage between this app and an iPad/pencil. We have used it create hundreds of building diagrams over the last two years. The main app engineer is rolling out new features consistently.

Cons:

We use iPad pros Wifi+ cellular on AT&T for diagramming and bugs that have continued unresolved for months have caused us to start re-considering alternatives. For example, swiping between apps causes the drawing to window to zoom out to the point where the diagram is only a pixel on the screen. Sometimes the entire app goes to a blank white screen, then reverts to the projects list, forcing us to re-open the active drawing. Snapping to grid is a basic function, but when reviewing drawings closely, lines that were supposed to have snapped to the grid are actually only next to the grid lines and not accurately placed. We have to zoom in quite far to correct. With more complex drawings, containing over 70 elements or so, the app bogs down significantly and crashes, even though we think it should be able to easily handle more complex drawings than we use it for. The monthly fees are significant at the small business level. As of today, $360/year and $720/year for cross-device sync capability. AutoCAD LT, which is close in capability, costs $390/year and includes both desktop and mobile apps for iOS. Although support was responsive before, our support requests have not been answered the last two times we've asked for help. The answer has been that they are unable to duplicate the issue we see. However, on our end, the bugs persist through iOS updates, app updates, and on multiple devices.

Once in awhile there’s some weird things like sometimes locking 2 walls together in a corner they won’t flawlessly bond even tho they’re the same thickness and on the same layer.
