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.
I haven't used the cost estimating on it yet but I plan to and I feel like there is great value in it once I get that setup. I love the little tricks that help make the take-offs go much faster.
This never used to be the case (I have used the software for ten or more years). It seems every time they get bought, the problem gets worse.
Best in industry, good speed and better for revisions. Apart from that, counting is very easy.
Everything was horrible including the customer support.
The ease of use for missing measurements and the ability to highlight the areas in question is remarkably easy to use. Impressed by the feature that allows for a total linear footage.
The only problem with this program is that is is a bit pricey.
Anyway I can recommend this software for new users who are looking to have there estimation purpose. I am happy overall quality of the software.
Software is hard-coded to call Internet Explorer and ignore other browsers, even if the default is set in Windows.
