It's a good product, very simple for take measures on worksite, perfect for begin layout... or transfer to Cad application... there is a lot advantage directly inside it.
The issue that bothered me the most is its mandatory bidding features. We have no need for them.
The customer support team is fantastic, and was eager to know about my experience with the tool and what they could do to improve.
Lack of features for more complicated drawings.
We have been using ArcSite for years now, and I have the utmost respect for the company, they truly want to help the customer/user be successful.
No desktop version, limited export options, inconsistent and limited dimensioning, and not easy to get area measurements. Higher levels are a bit expensive.
ArcSite has given us the ability to create beautiful, quality, custom bids for the work we do on our customers home that is unparalleled.
There are times when very detailed drawings can be a pain. Sometimes it is difficult to draw or drag and place lines that are close together.
Overall experience has been great, especially with customer support. Sensitive content hidden] has been fantastic).
I had try to learn and use for long time but it was waste money and time and customer service annoyed enough to make me crazy.
The company and people are fantastic and are certainly head in the right direction with a lot of great ideas.
When you want to cancel your account and unsubscribe they can stall you.
My experience with Buildexact so far has been extremely helpful integration with suppliers is fantastic making quoting a lot more streamlined.
Financials, budgeting and the biggest is no cost controls.
Easy to do take offs and manipulate the software to your individual requirements. The support teams are great, always ready to help you and assist you in getting the most out of the software.
Some difficulty getting used to all the functions.
David B.: Hello, my name's David. I'm a Assistant Project Manager over at Tayman Associates, we've been in the Florida area building custom-built homes and remodeling and commercial builds since 1988, and I have a five star review for Buildxact. Before we started using Buildxact, we were just manually doing takeoffs and estimating, and this has really increased the rate at which we can get work done. One of the reasons we decided to go with Buildxact is because the electronic integration, we can have it on our mobile apps, so our different project managers and myself can communicate with each other about different jobs. And the takeoff process is very easy. We get to see how and where people are getting those numbers from every different device, all on the same job. So it makes it really simple to do that stuff. There's a bit of a learning curve with Buildxact, but they have a really good FAQ section and a tutorial section, and anything that is not covered there you can email them, they're really quick to respond. I would recommend you give it a shot, they have a 14-day trial, and it's definitely worth it.
