i was poached as a near map user and promised a better program at a cheaper price. I made a big mistake in switching to canibuild

Pros

nothing really. the demo they show has much better definition than what you actually get historical pics are nowhere near as comprehensive as nearmap.

Cons

platform is terrible. resolution is lacking definition. near map has a much better and easier to use interface. You cannot select a property unless the address matches the data base so if its a near title or rural where numbers are not in the system you can't select that property. whereas with other programs you just move the screen to the location and select whatever you want

Pros

This program is so natural to use just as surrenders such a lot of data front. To have the option to get to data like difficulty, forms, site data all in practically no time and before a customer is a distinct advantage and such a life hack. Indeed, even to have the option to arrange forms and so forth from the program simply makes everything such a ton simpler. You truly don't require ay other program

Cons

Some data isn't refreshed from the source which we then, at that point can not utilize the program for that request

I have found them very easy to deal with and prompt in answering any problems and also always looking to improve the system and cater to what our business needs.

Pros

I like that with ease I can place a pool on a property with knowing what the elevation is, which then determines what type of build the pool will be before I phone the customer. I like to be able to present to our customer a professional plan which is easy to read and also easy to make.

Cons

Some information is not updated from the source which we then can not use the program for that inquiry

Easy to get hold of help when required. Prompt, reliable and happy to help.

Pros

Easy to use and adaptable to our business. Time saving for us.

Cons

Would like to see improved clarity in the site plan once generated. Would like to have objects we can import and then adjust the size (which I know is coming)

Great. I am very happy.

Pros

I love the support I receive. It doesn't matter what time or what day. Can I build always go out of their way to help and make sure they offer what they can to support my business and make my life 100 times easier.

Cons

Will be good when I can use the software to submit DA. Not just CDCs and maybe down the line I can use it for decks/pergolas etc

Canibuild has given me a one stop shop to get all documents & plans for a job proposal one of the best things about having the app is also the staff that provide great service if you ever do need some help

Pros

Canibuild is great and a real selling tool. i am able to show a client all rules and how the pool will look at the time of quote which is massive for someone that likes visual!

Cons

Nothing really to fault here, there were a few teething problems at first but every update they do just makes the app better and more user friendly has saved me so much time in my business

Service department is very pro active. When I have an issue they come straight back to me and follow it up with a phone call, even on a Sunday!

Pros

Being able to place one of our designs onto the site and it shows the height of the flor above Natural Ground Level is a bonus.. Really there are many positive features in Canibuild and they are bringing more and more out it seems every week or two.

Cons

Canibuild is still evolving and as such some features are not available in all areas. For instance not all Councils are represented at the moment however they are adding more Councils every week.

Fantastic! Not much more to say except that i am really happy with this product

Pros

All of the information and tools I need to assess a property are in one place where i would previously have to visit three or four different websites.

Cons

There are still a few bugs and the UI sometimes doesn't scale or fit well within different sized computer screens, but this is a minor issue that does not take away from the functionality of the product

With staff at different learning levels can make things tricky at times however , 'Can I build' really is easy to use for all ages and learning abilities. We have been dealing with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and the customer service to date has been outstanding. They have considered what the industry is needing and delivered. Well done guys!! It is still only new to Kurmond Homes however it is a god send and we are excited to get our head around all of the features and use it to its fullest potential!!

Pros

This program is so easy to use as well as gives so much information up front. To be able to access information such as setback, contours, site information all within minutes and in front of a client is a game changer and such a time saver. Even to be able to order contours etc from the program just makes everything so much easier. You really don't need ay other program....

Cons

We're excited to have all councils uploaded in to the system which will show DA setbacks as well as CDC setbacks.
