Vastly exceeded all expectations, and in ways no other takeoff software provider ever would. Absolutely love working with them.

Pros

It isn't overflowing with overcomplicated extra stuff that I never use. It's truly mobile and entirely web-based. The cost is rational and affordable. Deployment was the easiest thing we've ever done. You just start using it. And the dev team is the absolute best. They're super responsive, and work hard to deliver the solutions you need. Absolutely no regrets and wish we would have switched even sooner. I recommend Buildee to everyone we work with now.

Cons

Any "cons" list is just an opportunity list for the devs. They really are fantastic. If buildee couldn't do something I wanted, they went back and added it. They really have been fantastic to work with.

[On-Screen Takeoff](https://www.capterra.com/p/121585/On-Screen-Takeoff/)

Others were higher cost than they were worth for us, and couldn't do what we needed with what we have. We either had to spend a fortune on the software, or had to spend a fortune upgrading our computers, or both.
