After using Part3 full time for the last 5 months, emails have drastically been reduced allowing more time to be focused on the project. Instant tracking data is key as it comes up in each monthly site meeting. End the end Part3 is a one stop place where all CA takes place between the owner, design team and the contractor.

Overall we are very happy with the software. As items have come up, we have emailed the Part3 team in which they respond very quickly and resolve the issue or request with in a timely manner.

Overall the software is keeping us better organized and provides a professional and leading edge approach to CA document control.

The software is easy to navigate and takes very little time to learn. Our team was able to be setup quickly and roll-out to our Contractors and Consultants with very little challenge. Part3 listened to our needs and customized our templates. Rolls the many software types into one and creates a one-stop location for all our documents and current project records.

Things could be more user friendly from the Contractor's side. Submitting pricing, quotes, and progress payment certificates is missing. Adding cover sheets to submitals is cumbersome. Needs a tool to track metrics like review times overall and from each consultant.

Overall experience has been positive. The potential functionality of P3 is evident. Very excited to see the evolution and leverage new functionality when available.

1) User interface is intuitive. 2) Graphic display of data is easy to understand. 3) Forced document numbering/organization eliminates human error.

1) ProCore integration leaves GC with too much control: Example: CCDC says submittals/RFI have 10 day review period. GC can pick whatever date they want, even if less than 10 days. this skews the workflow and prioritization of tasks on the consultant side. 2) Drawing revision history is desperately needed by consultants. 3) Subconsultants must SIGN their instructions before prime consultant can issue. This causes delays when new sub consultants are learning P3 and don't know to sign. Prime consultant needs an option to issue without signature. 4) More tutorials required for site review, specifically creating 2nd, 3rd, 4th reports etc. creation of 1st report is clear.

We have found Part3 to be a great time-saver, easily offsetting the cost, and our team is able to spend more time focusing on architectural issues rather than clerical work. We had previously avoided using other CA software because of unnecessary complexity and a collaborative focus that didn't work with the types of projects we do, along with a price that we couldn't justify. The pricing model for Part3 and its architect-focused and flexible nature worked much better for our office as we are able to deploy it on smaller projects and it remains effective even without buy-in from clients, contractors and consultants.

The simplicity of the Part3 interface is its greatest strength: new users are able to use it effectively with little to no training, it can be easily used in the field on a cell phone or tablet, and it's much easier to bring clients, consultants and contractors on board. The development team is very responsive to issues and new suggestions, regularly updating the product in response to feedback from users.

At the time of writing this review, Part3 is still in development, and as a result it does not yet have the full suite of features that the developers envision and which other software may offer, which is why I've given it only 4 stars for features and overall quality. But the pace of development is rapid, with new modules being offered every few months, so I expect it won't be long before the full range of features is available.

We have been able to move away from a manually managed Excel project log and sending out additional emails with assigned reviews. Overall experience has been good and encourage to continue to develop this software for the A/E industry.

The product is easy to use. The ability to assign to team members and then have a log to track are really important. Due date reminders are really important.

The templates could be more customizable. The in place editing/markup tools are very basic and as such don't use much. Procore integration doesn't work for our workflow as we essentially have to import in and still send out to team members.
