However, if you like you can use simple unit takeoffs and apply a cost to them later. Proest can be as complex or as simple as you'd like for it to be and for the money, it's a pretty good program.
Terrible schedule program; visually unable to have clients and vendors understand it.
Overall it is a great system, they have an awesome trainer that will work with you until you got it. Customer service is also real helpful.
Mid way through my ownership they rolled out the cloud based application of the software and it was garbage, lost of glitches, very slow response, etc.
I liked that this software is very simple and easy, and we had free training sessions which was very useful. I also find the take off system and tools very powerful and the database is huge.
I do have one complaint which may seem petty, but it is an annoyance.
I have been using ProEst for the last year and have for the most part been very happy. The customer support has been very good.
Building an assembly from scratch is so difficult that they now have someone in house that does this for their customers because its so difficult, think about that.
They have been wonderful to work with. From implementation, to support, and releasing updates they are fantastic.
I think the only thing I dislike is the roll cut diagram. I just wish it was easier to adjust roll cut sizes.
Very easy to use with great accuracy saves time and effort that increases the ability to gain more business.
There is only one function from a previous version that I miss. Or have yet to ask for the work around.
The ease of use and the accuracy is quite good. Layouts are excellent for not only sales team but installers as well to know what the job in-tails before they get there.
At this point I really cant say anything that I dont like. There was a problem at times it would crash but I havent had any issues with that in a couple years.
Basically the ease of use, accuracy and speed with which we can produce a finished take off, has been a great help to our company.
Tricky to get stairs to work out exactly right - hard to get landings and stairs to mate up sometimes.
