### "Great Program for All"

August 10, 2023

4.0

I'm really liking the program so far.

Pros

I use Contractor Foreman daily and understand the importance of needing a program that does what YOU need it do to. Contractor Foreman has helped me keep track of multiple projects and all of their individual aspects. I needed something to track payments to subcontractors that didn't require integration of our accounting software. This program is perfect for that.

Cons

There are a limited amount of templates, but you can make your own custom templates through the document writer.

Reason for choosing Contractor Foreman

Price, ease of use, free trial that lead to me seeing that I could do everything needed, and have personal training.

### "Don't waste your money"

March 14, 2022

1.0

The user interface is outdated. Looks like it was build in the early 2010s and never updated. Also, they also kept charging me even though I canceled the membership. They would not issue a refund.

Pros

Unfortunately, I didn't like the software.

Cons

The web interface looks 10+ years old and it's slow. The mobile version is limited. Can't create good construction schedules. Use Smartsheet.com

Response from Contractor Foreman

April 1, 2022

Thank you Yoni for the review. When you last logged in, you are right - we did have a very dated UI. But that is no longer the case as we have had many updates since then including a new custom dashboard with custom and resizable widgets. "It's a beaut, Clark. A beaut!" Regarding billing, we asked you to send anything to us showing that you cancelled your account but you would not. You signed up under the old terms which requires that customers email support to cancel the account. In doing so, this automatically creates a ticket and sends a copy back to you. This allows you to have a copy and us. (Now, someone can cancel directly from within their account.) We asked for a copy of the Sent email or the ticket number or anything but nothing was provided. Up until then, we had no reason to cancel the account as the request had not been made in email or chat or anywhere.

### "Loving it so far!"

March 22, 2022

5.0

We were looking for a better scheduling system as we're expanding, but Contractor Foreman was so much more than that. As a geotechnical drilling company, it was hard to find a program that worked for us because most of the programs we demoed (and we did a lot of demos) were geared more toward building houses. With Contractor Foreman, it literally has everything we need and stuff we didn't realize we needed!

Pros

I've just signed up, and I am not fully set up yet, but the reason I went with them, other than it has almost everything I'm looking for, is the customer service and response time. I appreciate that you can suggest/request any feature. I submitted a suggestion, and it was responded to immediately by two different people. Someone even emailed me asking for more details on exactly what I meant. They were already working on my suggestion, but I feel like they probably take all suggestions to heart, which is rare. I also appreciate the number of how-to videos they offer. There is a video for every feature they offer.

Cons

The only minor complaint I can come up with is the demo video meeting I had wasn't the best. The demo associate was still learning the system herself and a bit unorganized, but I still signed up, so she did a fine job.

### "Sam Mains, Hopkins Electric"

November 16, 2022

4.0

While sometimes the occasional bugs and glitches can be annoying; I don't mind working with Contractor Foreman. Generally speaking the bugs aren't overwhelmingly difficult to work with or around.

Pros

It is easy to learn and quickly begin using. I personally mainly use it for managing purchase orders and billing.

Cons

Some features are a hassle to work around. One of my biggest complaints is our computers are a bit older and it seems that Contractor Foreman really bogs down the performance and because our computers are a bit slower on occasion that in turn causes Foreman to have multiple bugs. Also; I don't want to be forced to go to the billing page every time I make a bill from a purchase order. I find myself constantly having to swap from the billing section back to the P.O section.

### "Great Software for business"

November 14, 2022

4.0

It has been very easy to access, great updates every so often, love where you can enter in some ideas and it is usually corporated into the system in good timing.

Pros

this is great to track and run calendar.

Cons

Looking for tracking once you are in the project that you are able to see anytime this is scheduled or notes available anytime you have had to go to a location more than once.

Reason for choosing Contractor Foreman

we have more larger projects than just service calls. although we have picked up in service calls and running a seperate app to make it easier and more accessible to our service technician has been thought of.

### "850 Plumbing Contractor Foreman Review -- Thumbs Up!!"

November 15, 2022

5.0

We have had an excellent experience for the past year. Anything that arises is handled quickly by the great team that Contractor Foreman has in place. They also allow suggestions, and some even get implemented. Overall great experience. Way more time saving and productive than our last program.

Pros

Our business uses many of the services. Set up on any product always has its learning curves; however, the customer support is excellent and helps with any questions. They have a great team.

Cons

The scheduling calendar/crew schedule function is great, but we would like to see the Employee section and the Team section function together. Other than that its great.

### "Super Versatile"

December 3, 2020

5.0

Pros

Everything integrated with itself really seamlessly. There is no maze of screens to navigate. Its just menu-page-action. Hard to describe but it's really well laid out considering how incredibly in depth and customizable it is. It does everything!

Cons

It's not as pretty on the app as other software but I still have full function to create projects and pull reports on my phone.

Reason for choosing Contractor Foreman

Product is just as functional and 1/6th the price. Small company seems to care about my experience. They always ask for feedback instead of using marketing tricks. That's a good sign.

November 18, 2022

4.0

We really enjoy this software and we try to utilize it to its full potential.

Pros

I enjoy the budgeting financial side of it since I am in the accounting department.

Cons

The fact that once you get out of job it takes you completely out and you need to go through the same steps all over again.

I like how you can have trainings one on one or a group session to learn how to navigate Contractor Foreman. I think this is a great software to manage all your projects and invoices etc.

Pros

How you can manage all your projects and expenses to see the profit your making and losing and keeping track of everything you record.

Cons

You have to go back every time you save something or do anything.

### "Extremely pleased so far"

December 13, 2022

5.0

Pros

We have been using this software for only about a month. So far, we have only used it for employee management with Time Cards and GPS location. We still have to integrate with Quickbooks but if it goes as smoothly as everything else, we are looking forward to seeing how it connects with payroll. Another huge feature of software is the ability for our Spanish speaking employees to translate app to Spanish. We have also used the Projects tab and are working on cost sheet and tracking project info and daily reporting. So far, so good.

Cons

We have not used program to full capability yet but nothing negative to say as of now.

### "It Great! "

March 27, 2023

5.0

Great. I would still be using if wasnt for QBs

Pros

Contractor was very easy to use. with one training session you could be up and running by the end of the day. Our field guys taught themselves how to use the app.

Cons

The con was expenses Vs Bills. Bill in a project could not be billed T/M with mark up. The bill had to be entered as expense to be billable. QB was the only accounting software that would integrate with CF. QB could not handle our payroll deductions for Unions employees.

Pros

It's less paper on my desk. It's now easier to track projects, job costing, labor, materials, etc. Support and training are also top-notch.

Cons

No option to process payroll within the system. Not a big deal though as they allow integration to a 3rd party software.

### "Customer Service Top Notch"

January 24, 2024

5.0

Pros

I have been completely blown away by the customer service the team has provided me. The initial salesman very patiently answered my questions and gave me the confidence that this program will do exactly what I need it to do. And he was right! The customer care I have received since we started our trial has been nothing short of amazing. The Live Chat feature is convenient if I have a simple question and the private trainings allow me to save up a list and review all at one time. I appreciate the reps offering suggestions of best practices and how I can make the system work for me. They're also open to feedback and want to continue improving their product.

Cons

Least? That I didn't find it sooner! It's going to make us so much more efficient.

### "The Best Construction management application for the money."

September 2, 2022

4.0

Pros

The best thing about this application is the affordability among other construction management applications. There is others out there that may be a little easier to navigate, but that may come at a much higher price. The team at Contractor Forman is constantly updating the platform to make everything as user friendly as possible. This program has made some great changes in the 20 months that we have been using it.

Cons

Everything that I have had any issues with, the team at Contractor Forman has taken my concerns into consideration and has made significant changes within the week. No issues as of now.

For the price you get a lot of useful features, daily reports were the highlight, fillable forms, RFIs and how it managed those files was nice.

Pros

Covered a lot of things we use multiple applications for, the file system and document tracking was great

Cons

Time tracking and schedule were okay but not what we were expecting. There is so much going on that sometimes it feels overwhelming.

### "Be cautious regarding their free trial period"

March 4, 2023

1.0

It was not good, I wanted a refund and felt scammed

Pros

I really have nothing positive to say regarding the pros

Cons

I am a GC and was looking for a new scheduling and management tool, Contractor Foreman seemed attractive due to their free trial period. I started the subscription then realized the timing was not going to work for me so I inquired about canceling my subscription and was given the run around until I was past the free trial period and informed I would only be getting a 75% refund, after paying for a 1 year subscription, because I did not fill out the required information for the 100 day free trial period (in their fine print of course). Anyways I had proof from emails I sent that started within the 30 day period and they could care less and said it was their protocol, so I felt totally scammed. That's as far as I got with my subscription, I only logged in 1 or 2 times and I am sure they had a way of measuring my activity to see that I was not using the service during the 30 day trial, but like I said, they could care less. Be cautious about the service and their trial period as there are extra steps you need to take to get the full 100 day free trial.
