Wayne R
Senior Estimator
4.0

Wayne R: Hi, my name's Wayne. I'm the senior estimator for a general contractor. I would rate BuildingConnected at a four out of five. And for more reviews, quick below. Okay. Previously, we used Dropbox. We used to email individual subs for requests, for quotes. Very time consuming. We looked at what we were using currently and decided that the payback time for the time savings would be very short. Okay. It was fairly simple to get familiar with the software and start to utilize it in an efficient manner. I would say that if you're looking for a cost savings as far as time to invite subcontractors and suppliers to quote on your project, it is very beneficial to use this software.
