AR Coordinator Construction ### "Heavyjob Review" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 January 19, 2026 Pros My company has only used for about 2 years. Positive on this software would be reports (job reports, cost code reports, equipment reports, etc.) and easy access. Cons One dislike is our company could use a lot more training on the outcome of reports & T&M information. I think there's so much potential but have yet to see it. Switched from [PavementSoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/229835/PavementSoft/) We were looking for something that would communicate with Foundation Software Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Payroll Coordinator Construction ### "Payroll made easy" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 June 5, 2025 We enjoy using Heavyjob at our company. We had a great trainer come out and clarify details and teach us things we didn't know about the system and since then we have had a great experience. Pros HeavyJob makes payroll a breeze. From our Foreman logging ours to checking and correcting timecards all the way down to exportation of data, payroll is simplified. Cons Our foremen sometimes have issues with their iPAD syncing up with desktop computers. They will submit time or try to approve something, and it will not show up on the administers side of the system. Switched from [PavementSoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/229835/PavementSoft/) We wanted a more user- friendly service and one that could offer more avenues of use.

Cons The Manager system is a bit old and clunky. Hopefully everything is ported to the web version quickly.

IT Application Manager Construction ### "Best in class time entry" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 7, 2020 We enter over 9000 hours a week through HeavyJob and it has really streamlined our time entry on the job sites. The interface with our ERP is solid and the support is second to none. Pros HCSS HeavyJob is very easy to install and use. It has the features most wanted by construction companies to manage timecards and productivity in the field. Cons The only drawback with HeavyJob is the price. The monthly fees for access can become quite large for a larger workforce and there aren't many options for different levels of access. Most things are "all-or-nothing," which increases the cost.

AU Anonymous User Senior Estimator Construction ### "HCSS Review" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 16, 2020 Overall it is the best and highly recommended. One of the most important things about HCSS is that doing joint ventures with other companies, the majority of companies use this software, and makes the joint venture comparison flawless. And hiring people with Heavy Bid experience is essential. Pros HCSS is a very popular and powerful bidding software. It allows many features for data input, creating resources, crews, material, labor and equipment databases. Making changes within the database or individual bids is extremely easy. Adding items, codes, resources is one click. Cons The biggest negative for HCSS is the cost. It is extremely expensive, and sometimes tough for smaller companies to purchase multiple licenses. In my opinion, worth the cost though. There are other comparible estimating softwares out there, but HCSS is the Cadillac.

AU Anonymous User Project Manager Construction ### "Poor quality product is only saved by spectacular customer support" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 1.0 1.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 2/10 February 22, 2020 Aside from being able to keep track of time and having an easy input for our accounting software, HJ hasn't really benefited our company at all. If we were to take it away today and simply have our employees fill out excel spreadsheets, we really wouldn't notice much of a difference. While I'm sure the software is great for large companies with employees who can dedicate many hours to the intricacies of it - this is an overall bad software for smaller to medium sized companies. Given its user interface problems and outdated database - a company will need a full time operator on this software just to get their money out of it. Pros The most likable thing about this software is the incredible customer support team. They're available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week; there has never been a situation where I've called and didn't have my problem solved within an hour. Over 90% of my support inquiries have been handled in less than 10 minutes. The team is truly incredible. Cons The software is built on an outdated database with a poorly constructed user interface. The UI is probably one of the worst things I've ever seen in a project management software; it's not intuitive at all, requires a ton of clicks to get very simple things accomplished, and a multitude of options sit in places where they don't logically belong. My crews in the field do find it easy to use, which is a benefit, but from a backend perspective it's just a mess. I actually come from the user experience (UX) world, and it's clear to me that HCSS either didn't hire a UX designer/developer or the one they have hasn't learned anything new in the past decade. Basically all of the internal UI logic is just really, really bad. The reporting system is also a mess of odd questions and functions, and I've had to call several times to get customer support to explain to me how to custom make reports that should just be readily available in any PM construction software. The "takeoff" phase of this was very problematic, and we ran into multiple issues along the way. HCSS charges an exorbitant amount of money to host their own software on their servers. Choosing them over Google Cloud would have cost my company almost three times more per month, but because the software was already extremely expensive I didn't want to go over budget. So we ran into issues during implementation and the training was lackluster. Reasons for choosing HeavyJob Ultimately went with HJ due to their reputation for good customer service.

NK Nicole K. Payroll Administrator Construction ### "Very effective for the construction industry" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 15, 2019 Pros I like how easy it is to use this product. Anyone can use it whether they are tech-savvy or not! It is so simple to add employees, hours, cost codes to a time card. There isn't a lot of features that go unused either. We use the mobile app too which is extremely helpful for those superintendents without computers. This program coincides with many other accounting softwares making it easy to import the hours/time cards. Cons The only downside I have noticed when the mobile app and desktop software work together, you have to manually pull in the time cards from users using the mobile app to the desktop software. We were told that they had an auto-import function, but it never went into effect.

Estimator/Project Manager Construction ### "Best taking software in construction" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 2, 2019 We use it to track out time, document change orders and Rework. I keeps the cost codes clean and accurate. Pros The crew foreman have been able to pick this up fairly easily and use it as is intended to be used. We get quality notes from the foreman and are able to accurately track the time with the proper pay items. it is especially helpful on time and material pay items. I love that I am able to document the work and have the customer sign off on the work at the end of the day. It makes change orders easy to track as well as rework. This has helped us give better estimates because of the higher quality of cost tracking. It makes keeping the budget clean so much easier. Cons I have not found any cons with heavy job at this point.
