All our employees love this program. It is simple and easy to use, produces excellent reports and keeps records great.

Pros

The easy and user friendly options for the app. Associates can pick up the software better than any other software we have used in the past.

Cons

This is an excellent product. The only issue and this is a very minor insignificant issue is the paper size selection.

Review source

Extremely frustrating and I wished we had spent the money to further our own bespoke system which CM replaced.

Pros

Monitoring of purchase orders against planned spend

Cons

It takes an age to set up. the CIS module is no where near as good as Sage 50 and there is no ability to block suppliers from being used despite expired insurances.

Review source

Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

We have saved time and have become much more efficient as a company.

Pros

The product is fairly intuitive to use and the help and support to integrate the new software was outstanding.

Cons

There have been a number of features that we would have found useful, but on speaking to support, who then forward to the development team, these are listened to and implemented.We would like the ability to add an invoice to a purchase order even if it is complete and for this to show as a negative number if it does go over. That way we have a good way of tracking exactly where we are without having to edit the original PO.

Reasons for choosing Construction Manager

We had a good relationship with \[sensitive content hidden\] who provided outstanding care and instructions, making our transition seamless.

I knew what I needed in terms of the software but didn't know what it would look like or how it would work. I wish I had this in my last job as it would have been ideal and definitely would have added value to what we did. In the end I was recommended Construction Manager from another company that we work with.It has helped with schedules, reporting, forecasting and workloads. Also, our clients really love it as well. It provides total transparency with regards to what we do and has added value to our service. Customers have commented on how professional we are now and I think a lot of that is down to how we use Construction Manager and the improved ways in which it allows us to operate.

Pros

I really love the transparency or the planner and seeing where we are up to on a weekly and monthly basis. The engineers who use it too, appreciate knowing what work they have on as it helps them schedule not only their workload but also any potential impact on the home life (ie. if they are going to be finished earlier or later)

Cons

Some of the job cards could fit the template better. Sometimes the photos and descriptions are hard to decipher if it relates to the picture above or the picture below.

Reasons for choosing Construction Manager

There were a few other alternatives however Construction Manager was the most cost effective and for me it was the simplicity and ease of use that made me choose this over other options which were more expensive and with features that wouldn't have been used.

Very good

Pros

We import to Xero from JNC which our other software would not.

Cons

Modification of report files (MRT) to be emailed or printed . Support to resolve issues was very good from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] from JNC onbording was good.

Reasons for choosing Construction Manager

JNC I thought was better.
