All processes are available on ebuilder including submittals, RFI's, drawing updates, change orders, construction reports..... Strong software program overall. Pros Customization and strong customer support. Cons Server can lag at times to make navigating barely slower than a local drive. Review Source CB Christopher B. Regional Security Director Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "E Builder From a Security Perspective" December 9, 2021 5.0 My overall experience has been great once I fully understood how to use the system.

Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Elevate 2017" September 29, 2017 4.0 Pros Reporting and analytical information. I love how everything is kept in one place and is able to import and export when there are inconsistencies with other programs or non users. Cons Need more bulk edits and drag and drop functionality. Any other cons I have are within my organization and how we are rolling out processes and under utilizing ebuilder functionality Review Source EG Emmanuel G. Thechnical Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ORB Review" August 26, 2016 5.0 I am using it as a client member from our official client and it is easy to use.

Sr. Financial Analyst Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The employees truly are greatest asset. Our implementation team was EXCELLENT. " March 15, 2018 4.0 More consistent data to report on Pros It makes sense and is easy to use. I like the flexibility of custom fields and multiple ways of getting around to different menus. Cons Manual entry is too much mouse. Would like to be able to use keystroke shortcuts. I wish there was an Invoice Date on the invoice entry and wish there was a drill down to get costs by period. Review Source JW Jerald W. Senior Engineering Technician Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "KC Water opinion" December 20, 2022 4.0 I don't use enough on projects Pros Accessibility of projects. The flow of projects is helpful Cons Tedious steps at times. Knowing which tab to use at times is bothersome Review Source BK Bert K. PDC/FRG Project Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "e-Builder product review" August 10, 2016 5.0 I have been using e-Builder for a little over two years now and like more every time I use it. I use e-Builder on a daily basis for all of my projects for hospitals and have the architects, engineers, vendors and contractors utilizing the software. E-Builder is great for keeping track of every aspect of a project from conception through close-out. Pros Keeping all the project information in one place. Cons Getting others to use it. Review Source DG David G. Assistant Campus Architect Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Has improved the efficiency and visibility of our work flows." August 31, 2016 5.0 Pros After going through a failed implementation of a competing product, we were apprehensive when starting over with eBuilder. We have been pleased with the features, functionality and support we have gotten. We have found eBuilder to be flexible and configurable so it matches our processes and adds visibility and consistency to how we work. - Document management allows us to keep all information, from record drawings to O&M manuals in one location that is readily available to all users. - Supports all phases of construction project from planning and budgeting to warranty work. Cons There have been some bumps along the way (mostly a result of our inexperience) but most have been resolved quickly and satisfactorily. Review Source TK Tim K. Civil Engineer Government Administration Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "e-Builder works great for streamlining government agency processes" August 10, 2016 4.0 Pros Reporting is awesome and very powerful. Processes really streamline our efficiency. Help menu is very detailed and has information for almost everything you can imagine. Many advanced features that have the ability to vastly improve how projects are managed if used correctly. Cons There are multiple "modules" in the software (processes, reports, cost, schedule, submittals, etc.) and for the most part there is not cross-module communication. This leads to issues with mail merges and reporting not always being able to pull in the information needed. There is an e-Builder Community function which is a nice idea but could be so much better. It needs a visual overhaul and should be a hub for all the different companies that use the software to share there ideas. Instead it is mostly used for people to post enhancement requests, with very little e-Builder response. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Engineering Administrator Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "an easy way to get a feel for if we want to pursue a bid" December 19, 2017 4.0 Pros fairly intuitive; items are where I would expect them to be heading-wise. searches are pretty comprehensive although could use a bit more detail Cons could use more details for the listings...sometimes its hard to find where a listing is without reading it in depth Review Source CL Charles L. Project Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Jaxport ICTF Review" August 18, 2016 5.0 I enjoyed the ease of navigation and the ability to add all documents to the platform and disperse or "tag" them to the appropriate submittal / contract. Pros \-The ability to have several windows open while navigating through separate tabs was the most incredible feature of all. you do not realize the value in that feature until you do not have it. VERY satisfied. Cons Nothing Review Source KS Kim S. Senior Accounting Clerk Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "e-Buildier is Great!" August 24, 2016 4.0 e-Builder is a great tool for handling of documents between multiple users. It is very easy to use, with so much functionality. I would recommend this program for anyone needing to share and provide information between many users. Pros It is very easy to use, and everything you might need to know is right at your fingertips. Even with minimal training, a user can navigate through the site with ease. Cons At first, it looks overwhelming, until you get in the program to start using it. A new user could be intimidated with all of the different areas to store and share information. Review Source CR Crystal-Rose R. Technology System Admin Airlines/Aviation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "e-Builder for the Admin" April 9, 2019 5.0 Previously, our company relied on paper, scanned documents and e-mail. Slowly but surely we are transferring all of our business processes for the entire enterprise made up of approximately 12 divisions into e-Builder. Several processes including procurement, invoice requests, budget requests, change requests, contingency transfers, etc. have all been successfully rolled out and are being maintained in the system while we expand to other departments like Admin & HR, Operations, Facilities, Business & Revenue, Technology, etc. as we continue to develop the software as an enterprise warehouse for all our business needs. Pros Functionality and ease of use not only for end-users but especially for the client system admins. Whether it's setting up projects, users, roles, processes, reports, dashboards, etc. the navigation and setup for all are intuitive and user friendly that anyone with typical technical skills could successfully use with little to no training or direction. Cons Though the system is very easy to use and setup, this is mostly because clients to not have access to the hard-coded data. Typically this is not a problem but there are limitations that come up from time to time like the ability to edit/remove standard and default fields or search functionality and options in different modules. Review Source DW Daniel W. Senior Cost Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "eBuilder Review for Portfolio and Project Management" January 30, 2023 3.0 Pros I like that it integrates with other systems I use, that it can be customized for my client, and that it provides good project controls across a portfolio. Cons At times I find it difficult to know where and how to initiate processes for cost management. The way a new window is opened to start a process or look into a previous contract or transaction can be clunky. I also would like more ability to easily customize project cost views.
