As an experienced user with almost ten years under my belt, I've got to admit that if I weren't set in my ways, and if I could persuade my inspectors to do the same, I'd switch to a different software program in a heartbeat, bidding farewell to HomeGauge.

Pros

The ability to take pictures and videos from your phone directly and indirectly and have it in the program is critical. As for the service team, they are the epitome of friendliness. Despite encountering issues almost daily, they are always apologetic and understanding. It's like having a helpful friend on the other end of the line, always ready to lend a listening ear and a solution to any problem.

Cons

Getting a report from your phone to the computer can be a real headache, and additional forms like the four-point and wind mitigation forms make the process even more frustrating. It's like pulling teeth! Scratch that; it is worse.

I think the above review Says it all.

Pros

17 years ago I started my inspection business with a notepad and a camera hanging around my neck. I developed my own website and added content as often as I could with 100's of hours invested. Early on I realized I wanted to be the best in my area, mediocrity was not in my vocabulary. I searched for a decent software that I didn't need a degree to use. Something easy to customize as I pride myself in going above and beyond the minimum. I found homegauge in 2006 and have been growing with thus company ever since. I really appreciate that Homegauge is serious about helping me to become as successful as possible. I gave found Homegauge to ve open to listening to actual inspectors on the ground. When a new idea is brought forward HG puts its efforts into making it happen. Over the years I have watch as the HG team has grown and have added more talent to make and application that is not just great, but adds features that other haven't even thought of. The features of HG have allowed me to add 100's of pictures, dozzens of videos, 360 images and more to every report. My cystomers are amazed how much information my reports contain. None of this could be possible without the HG team. Finally about 5 years ago I confided in HG to build my website. Wow, what a great job they did. My web traffic has improved immensely. I really like the fact that I can send a quick email to \[sensitive content hidden\] at HG and he can add or delete anything my heart desires to the site. HG is a big reason for my success.

Cons

HG seems to be moving toward expanding the inspection part of their business into the insurance/warrenty business and other value added areas. I understand businesses need to evolve but I try to stay within my lane of expertise. I don't want to offer warrantys that suggest I'll likely miss something during my inspection. Furthermore I don't want to become a salesman that oversell customers to see how high I can get my bill before I leave the house.

I'm used to the procedure now. I won't switch softwares, but I might stop inspections entirely.

The software works flawlessly. The support is fantastic. It's been a wonderful 25 years.

Pros

I have been using home gauge for close to 25 years. I will never consider switching to any other software!

Cons

There are several features I would like to see added.

Reasons for choosing HomeGauge

I used home gauge from day one, when I went from a four-part form to computerized reporting.

Getting inspection agreement signed.

Pros

Picture edits. able to add arrows and contrast/brightness, ability to find old reports.

Cons

Why no word search? Just a "control F" function would be great. A picture in picture tutorial I could follow along with as I actually perform the function would be great. The spell check algorithm needs upgrading. There are words very specific to home inspections that are not in the data base such as "escutcheon". It may be there now I have not checked (it is the chrome base around an knob or spigot). Many words with an "s" at the end will not be accepted. Some words with one obvious letter missing or misplace and it does not recognize it at all. Can not even suggest the correct word. Some times myself and another HomeGauge user will have a note that we are proud of as being concise, clear and dealing with a difficult issue just vanish. This is not after a software upgrade. Just one day it is there and the next it is gone. Scrambled notes. For instance after one software upgrade a list of foundation note disappeared and were under foundations.

I manage time with HomeGauge. Very professional company backs their product with stellar service and employees are genuine and experts.

Pros

Easy to use. Customizable as desired. Customers, Realtors, Builders like product. Saves hours of time. They also manage website and SEO.

Cons

The only issue that I can think of might be the insurance solicitation offers from the affiliated company. I have not had anyone say anything in several thousand inspections, but have heard a few people complain. Likely a non-issue.
