### "A globally great product"

February 21, 2017

4.0

CMiC is a really powerful tool. The product itself is really good. The data flows between all different modules without any problem. It is great to be able to run the pay for a week than being able to track our cost in real-time. CMiC also provides us a way to implement different standards in the company. Instead of having multiple ways of doing things, we now have "THE" way. Overall, CMiC is a great product built towards GC. CMiC does everything, or almost. It will give any construction company a clear advantage over competitor if enough time and resources are spent to make it fits the need of the company

Pros

Having the data in real-time for PM. ADF is a powerful technology allowing us to customize the software. Being able to import/export from Excel is great. It should be available in almost all screens. Log Builder. It does everything: payroll, AP, AR, PM, ....

### "A Complete ERP solution"

November 21, 2017

5.0

If your team has some programming knowledge, this software can do wonders!

Pros

Our business, being in the construction industry, has some particular needs and protocols to respect, and CMiC offers the perfect solution. It gives us the tools we need to do most of our project management, and also provide an easy way to customize and add modules we developed ourselves. 1. Highly customizable 2. Lots of shortcuts, and navigating in the software is consistent. 3. Their development team is consistently working toward new and innovative solutions.

Cons

1\. Currently between 2 technologies. "Forms" is old and not well adapted for latest computing protocols. 2. "ADF", even though appealing, still has some unresolved issues.

### "My client found this software easy to set up and get gooing with"

February 7, 2018

4.0

No specific things my client liked about this software. Still learning the ropes however having things like a blog, support and help that is readily available helps to mitigate any cons that are come across in time.

Pros

Having the financials, field and enterprise planning within one piece of software and one database was a real bonus. Having to have seperate bits of software previously my client found this quite frustrating. He is now quite happy trialing this software.

### "Very Good Software"

November 17, 2017

5.0

Take your time to really test and vet through your software before rolling it out to the masses.

Pros

I have been using CMiC for 16 years and it has definitely evolved for the better over that time. I am looking forward to moving to the ADF platform by next year. I usually get quick responses from CMiC when I have a problem with the system. The connect user conference is also a big plus.

Cons

1\. The Submittal process in CMiC Collab is not easy to use 2. It is not intuitive for a new user 3. There is a lot of functionality that users still don't about

### "Overall good software"

November 17, 2017

5.0

Pros

Overall, CMiC is more user friendly than other project software I've used. 1) The AP Module is straightforward and user-friendly 2) The lookup module for AP and Subcontractor invoices are effective 3) The filters within the program allow for quick searches

Cons

There are idiosyncrasies to parts of CMiC that are not user friendly and can result in a frustrating experience. 1) Error messages provide no helpful guidance on how to correct and proceed 2) Ticket submissions often sit idle for months before resolution

### "Bhavin's Review"

November 17, 2017

5.0

Go through the tutorials and play around with it. It takes some time to get used to, and I can understand the frustration when something doesn't work the way you want it to.

Pros

CMiC's software is very user-friendly, and navigating through the software becomes easier the more you go through it. There are some redundant components with regards to submittal logs, but the tutorials CMiC offers help ease the difficult portions of the software. I like how user-friendly it is, especially for beginners that have never used the software before. It is also very adaptable and the organization throughout the software makes it easy to navigate through the different sections.

Cons

There is some redundancy throughout the different sections. The amount of information within each section can be a little overwhelming. Saving after each step can be a little irritating.

### "It was a long road, but we are finally seeing a ROI"

April 24, 2018

3.0

Pros

We are on the cloud based version which seems to be going well. It's a new version, so it is constantly being updated/improved. Support team is easy to reach and nice. We generally get the same person which is huge since they are familiar with our setup.

Cons

The implementation process was tedious, time consuming, and slightly painful. We thought we were setting up things correctly, but since then have had to make a lot of corrections. Setting up our accruals should be fairly simple but have taken a long time and are still not calculating correctly. Very little customization. Getting a custom report is expensive and takes months.

### "CMiC's Development"

November 21, 2017

5.0

Take time implementing the software, do not do it all at once as this was challenging.

Pros

We have been implementing and using CMiC now for 2 years. While challenging to implement at first, CMiC has grown into becoming an excellent communication device between field and office employees. With the added enhancement of the financials, CMiC benefits both field and office employees when tracking costs of each project. CMiC has been worth the time and money that was invested to implement the software.

Cons

1\. The cost and time to edit and change certain report formats. 2. Slow support time when tickets are submitted and at times it is difficult to speak with somebody.

### "The only good ERP is your last one, and your next one - CMiC does an OK job"

October 2, 2018

3.0

Pros

It handles many of the financial and documentation needs of our company, and has the potential to cover others.

Cons

The interface is very out-dated and hard to use (particular on mobile browsers), it requires constant maintenance, patching, and testing. It's expensive to integrate with things

### "A system that functions"

November 19, 2018

1.0

I used many software, and I would rather create my own spreadsheets than suffer with this software any longer.

Pros

It combines project management, accounting, and other aspects into one location with one log in. That's really it.

Cons

It is extremely slow, I mean really slow, you can hear your clock tick as the circle rotates. The system is extremely difficult to follow. Terminology is inconsistent, owner billing module is extremely slow and lacks basic filter or shortcut features. I could go on for days.

### "CMiC"

November 17, 2017

5.0

Make sure you have dedicated team members from all aspects of your business that can see the project all the way through the implementation.

Pros

CMiC is a great ERP solution for the construction industry. The cost management portion is great and easy for the user to comprehend. CMiC also does a great job supporting their customers and have top-notch account reps.

Cons

1\. Hidden costs - i.e. adapters 2. Error messages are not always intuitive, which wastes our time troubleshooting as well as the CMiC support teams.

### "Construction Manager - in the weeds"

November 10, 2017

3.0

Pros

Everything had its place. The system for the most part connected with others. Web based able to work anywhere.

Cons

Lots of buttons to push in order for system to work properly. Too many checks and balances to complete something quickly. Estimating modual was not quick or efficients

### "Beck's CMiC Experience"

August 25, 2017

5.0

Pros

Beck has used CMiC Enterprise and PM for many years. We love the integrated database, strong financial and job costing and the ability to customize when needed.

Cons

Either go all in and really get behind leveraging the power of the system and making improvements needed, or don't use it. If you are only partially committed and keep using other systems at the same time, you will continue to be frustrated.

### "Sometimes I feel that there are too many navigational panes options. "

May 15, 2018

3.0

Pros

What I like most is the detail in the job cost reports as well as the drill down detail options. Cost affordable.

Cons

Having used both Procore and CMIC , CMIC seam to take longer to understand how to navigate through.

### "CMiC An Integrated Solution"

November 21, 2017

5.0

Pros

CMiC gives us tools to process data efficiently, generating live and useful reports, and brought our company to a higher level of performance and efficiency. As a general contractor, I feel the software fits our needs and give us room for growth. \* Flexible system allows us to make it fit our needs. \*

Cons

\* Response time from support can be slow \* Many important release are being delayed (B.I, Mobile...)

### "CMiC Review"

September 6, 2017

5.0

Overall CMiC is a solid product!

Pros

I mainly use the CMiC database for accessing data, occasionally entering equipment into the Equipment module, and entering my time sheet. For the most part, CMiC seems to work well but it would be nice if there was a consistent interface amongst all the different modules.

Cons

Too many interfaces (Forms, ADF, JSP, etc.) to access data.

### "Great Integrated System with lots of capability"

November 21, 2017

5.0

When rolling it out make sure to prioritize what the requirements are and setup accordingly.

Pros

Overall the system has huge capability. I love that it updates in real time and is fully integrated. It is also scalable thanks to the cloud meaning we will never outgrow the system.

Cons

Navigating through the system can be tricky and requires a good amount of time for initial setup.

### "Excellent management of architectural projects "

May 19, 2018

4.0

Very good experience, the project management department works more comfortable since they started using this platform, some things to improve but we trust that they will achieve it

Pros

Excellent tool for the administration of architectural projects, Great technical support in billing. It has very reliable and efficient integrated systems

Cons

An interface somewhat complicated to understand, but its main counter is that it has problems with the development of reports when we want to extract important data

### "Not Time-Friendly"

February 5, 2019

3.0

Pros

I don't like much about this program, but if I have to choose something, I would say that I like the ease of changing the order on lists such as chronological, by company, by spec., etc.

Cons

It takes a LOT of time to load large pages. If you're looking for a specific item in a large list, it's going to take a while to scroll & load each page if you don't know any keywords to use.

### "Construction accounting and management software that includes all aspects of the business"

March 18, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that this very simple looking software with an old school interface has virtually every feature you need to get the job done.

Cons

It often has these glitches where you input all of your necessary data and recalculate expecting to see the finished product but it doesn't save your information and you have to do it all over again.

### "After a year in..."

November 17, 2017

4.0

Familiarize yourself with the software before going live, if possible.

Pros

As a new user, learning the system was a bit challenging and there are many items we have yet to utilize. There is a lot of potentials, and it seems like it is being constantly improved. I really like: - Real-time job cost data - ability to import/export from Excel - Cloud-Based

Cons

Ease of use in certain areas (e.g. "select all" buttons would be nice), inconsistency in advice/set-up from trainers, would like there to be an interface for paying payroll liabilities.

### "Outdated interface"

December 5, 2018

3.0

It got the job done, but navigating through the system and printing reports felt very inefficient. I would dread the days I needed to print and provide my weekly reports because of how many man hours it would take to get all the necessary information sorted and produced for our update meetings.

Pros

CMiC is definitely capable of being your one stop shop for your construction management needs. It can link all aspects of a project into a single program which is convenient and the various reports can be set up to talk to each other and share input and information

Cons

Like most mass data collection and sorting software, the user interface could use some work. Searching for things and printing reports was often cumbersome and sometimes not very intuitive. One issue is the lack of customization for reports. I found it easier to export the raw data into excel and create my own report and sort functions to provide the type of analysis my managers were looking for.

### "Good to have"

October 26, 2018

5.0

Pros

my construction company has this software to organize all of our information. I dont use it all the time; it is more for our field employees. But when I do use it, it is user friendly.

Cons

I dont know if it is our servers but CMIC either goes slow or cuts out at least once a week.

### "CMiC - new user review"

May 7, 2020

4.0

Sop far there have been some growing pains with CMiC. The customer support is generally very good, but we have run into one of the training people who was very difficult to work with and we spent a lot of time and learned very little from him.

Pros

I like what the results can be once all the data is entered. We have only been using this software for 6 months or so and the data entry on the front end is a lot. We have gotten some good data so far, but it has been very time consuming.

Cons

We started using CmiC to take the place of Quick Books in our department. There are certain things we have had to ask CMiC to customize for us, like making estimates. I don't feel like this is a great replacement for things like estimates but we are making it work. There is talk of us bringing back QB for certain things.

### "The Android of Software"

October 28, 2019

3.0

I wish there was a CMiC template to then customize from and allow simplified user interfacing.

Pros

Highly customizable interface to meet your needs.

Cons

Difficult to navigate. The customization of the software takes up majority of your time, rather than utilizing the software to produce results.
