Engineer Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Buildertrend is worth trying and trusting" January 6, 2024 5.0 Pros The user interface is distinctive and professionally designed at all levels related to construction operations. It also has a support team that responds quickly to any inquiry and accepts all opinions to improve the quality of work and service. Cons If Buildertrend were to offer a free trial period, this would be better for the new user. I also hope to work on accounting programs to move away from simplicity so that things look better Review Source Response from Buildertrend January 9, 2024 Hi Esmaeil. We're always looking for ways to improve our product, so we really appreciate your feedback. Thank you! LC Luke C. Estimator / PM Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BuilderTrend Review" June 15, 2019 4.0 Epic Pros Everything! From budgets to daily logs, I enjoy every aspect. Cons How long it takes to input p.o.’s. This process needs to be simplified and not take so many steps to create. Review Source JW Jerehmy W. Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "BT is Exactly What We Needed" May 11, 2017 5.0 Pros Just like smartphones have revolutionized our lives. The integration of BuilderTrend into our business has revolutionized every aspect of how we manage our processes. From initial lead capturing through job closing BuilderTrend helps us every single step of the way. Rarely does the day go by when we are not thankful for the functions. We have been using Buildertrend for a year and a half now. Nearly every single day we are still amazed at how much smoother our business runs because of this software platform. Review Source WH Warren H. Owner Construction Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Not True Estimating Software" September 29, 2023 2.0 I was looking for true estimating software, which this is not. It was portrayed that it could be. True estimating software assigns labor units as you do the takeoff. This software does not. The takeoff can be done faster by hand, for the job sizes that this is designed for. There is no true free trial. Setup is very tedious, and training drags out. This is not for the self-employed, unless the person can afford a lot of downtime to learn. Had zero contact with anyone, but they continued taking my money for 4 months. I got nothing for all of that money that they took. I regret my decision to try this software. Pros Has nice TAKEOFF features. Has customer facing features Cons Not true estimating software, but was portrayed as such. No labor units. The free trial is not really free, because extensive training and setup is needed to even use the software. Need to have someone to set up the software, and learn it fast to be able to recoup the expense of the software. Continued taking money out of my account, even with no contact for months. It's better to purchase on-site software, and have someone train on site. That way you're not paying a fortune every month, for something you cant use. Reason for choosing Buildertrend Was advertised as being easy to use. Review Source Response from Buildertrend October 9, 2023 Hi Warren, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with Buildertrend. We appreciate your feedback and will be sure to share it with our team. KS Kevin S. Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BT2020" February 4, 2020 5.0 I think its a wonderful tool Pros I find it user friendly,detailed and workable Cons I have been having trouble with change orders, Creating a document so I usually create off site then add Review Source SS Sara S. Office Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "How did we do this before BuilderTrend?" February 4, 2020 5.0 I am VERY happy with BuilderTrend and the staff has always been amazing!! Pros You can keep EVERYTHING in one place. It's easy for clients to use, employees + subcontractors. Cons Sometimes things that should be obvious to do aren't an option. Like printing estimates with clients pricing, not builders. Review Source MG Mikhail G. President Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Significant part of our successful project management" February 20, 2019 5.0 Simply put, we could not function at the level of efficiency and effectiveness without this program, and its helpful support staff. Pros The centralized and well organized communication is key. We feel, as do our clients, that we are truly all "on the same page". Cons Interface with other software. It works, but at times sync with Quickbooks is delayed. The new Invoice feature is a step in the right direction, but again interface with Quickbooks has hindered our use of this feature. Review Source MP Mario P. Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Project Manager" June 15, 2019 3.0 Pros Daily logs, schedule, change order, to-do lists and RFIs Cons Print functionality of Gantt schedule Individual change orders - having to go in & out of each change order Review Source AC Anthony C. Managing Director Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent experience. Easy to learn and very functional" January 18, 2018 5.0 I would recommend this product to anyone looking for construction management software. Pros Very easy to use and can keep track of multiple jobs very effectively. Contractor management superb. Cons The facility to have location based project management (like Vico does) along side the function based Review Source Response from Buildertrend February 9, 2018 Anthony - Thanks you for recommending us to everyone! Let's chat more about your ideas. Our team will reach out. mS michael S. owner Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "BT review " June 13, 2019 3.0 It is useful for our time cards and assigning to do's. Not much aside from those items Pros Time clock integration to budget - centralized access to information To do's are very helpful Cons RFI is not useful at all- Budgets are confusing and difficult to use Emailing from software is not compatible with many customers email servers Reason for choosing Buildertrend Cost. Review Source AH Amy H. Manager/Designer Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Boom!" May 15, 2017 5.0 Pros BT has been the missing piece our company has been needing for a long time. We struggled with communication among employees and clients, now all conversations are right in one place for everyone to see. Not scattered between multiple employees emails or written on post-it notes. Having files accessible in the office or in the field has solved so many issues as well. Cons The PO system is "clunky". Too many layers and tabs and things to click. If you forgot to click something that can end up biting you later. Review Source MB Mike B. Estimator Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very versatile construction management software " November 9, 2018 4.0 Great support and their software is well positioned to assist the next generation of residential construction managers Pros BT staff will customize, coach, and assist with any of the users needs. They have worked with our folks to create an estimating database Cons Not really an estimating software. The import spreadsheets and adapt them rather then have specific assemblies and cost codes Review Source BM Brian M. Sales Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Three months into first use." February 5, 2018 4.0 Overall very good program. I am happy with most of the features and options available, would like to see a few more features integrated that I'm sure are yet to come. Pros Just recently began using buildertrend, I have been pleasantly surprised with the amount of features that are available. It works very well for our company. I am able to follow different departments of the company and how they interact with the customer. Cons Seamlessly switching between customers takes some time, as well as switching between tabs for the same customer. I would like a few more features in the ability to highlight customers based on certain criteria (ie. highlight customers who have not been contacted within the last week/month/period of time). I went through a struggle pulling customer information to a different program that did allow me to highlight customers based on different criteria. Review Source Response from Buildertrend February 9, 2018 Brian - Glad it is working well for your company. We will have your Buildertrend Coach reach out to make sure we are understanding your needs with highlighting customers based on certain criteria. Appreciate your business! GG Giannina G. General Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BT / 1st Choice Review" February 4, 2020 4.0 Definitely keeping better records and we find that this protects us in many cases. Pros The ability to keep each project organized. Cons Some functionalities seem to lag or could be improved. Review Source SH Steve H. owner Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BT +/-" July 2, 2019 5.0 great communication with trades & clients Pros The integration with Planswift works awesome. Phone support is always great too. Cons Can't import data/excel info on a change order Review Source RP Rich P. Used the software for: ### "" March 29, 2013 3.5 We're a general contractor that specializes in custom home building. We implemented BuilderTREND a few year's ago, looking for help with the communications aspects between our team, vendors/suppliers, subcontractors, and our clients. We were faced with limitations in email, phone, etc., for sharing information, schedules, and updates amongst all those involved. We also looked for other ways to help with tracking decisions and resources, rather than creating or refurbishing various spreadsheets and form documents that were redundant and cumbersome. BuilderTREND's support staff was very helpful in educating our team on the uses and ways to utilize the various components and tools within the software. The demo/tutorial presentation helped greatly to initialize it's use and the support and updates have increasingly permitted us to facilitate the needs of our projects. Our team continually finds ways to integrate more aspects of our business's processes into BuilderTrend to allow for a more streamlined activity model. The ability to aid with simplifying the sometimes overwhelming and time consuming amount of information management, has benefited all of those involved with our projects. Possibly the best result of utilizing BuilderTREND is that our clients have enjoyed their increased "involvement" throughout their home's construction. Especially with some of our clients not being local during construction. Specifically, sharing ability afforded by the schedule, photos, selections, and changes. Thanks and keep up the good work! Review Source NT Nick T. Estimator Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "BT Review" July 2, 2019 4.0 Great Pros All in one software that helps myself and our company in residential construction Cons Certain features that would make things easier are not able to be added Review Source LH Lindsay H. Vice President Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great software, great support." January 25, 2017 5.0 Our experience with CoConstruct has been a very positive one thus far. The support staff is great and has been more than willing to eagerly answer all of our questions during implementation. CoCamp is very helpful and motivating. The team at this company has set up a great model for success for themselves and their clients by staying involved in the learning process until they are sure you are understanding and USING their software. It has helped our principal take control of the jobs with better communication with our subs and our clients all in one place. There is a lot of work on the front end, but the results are worth it. Not to mention, these guys really seem to take a vested interest in our success as a company – they remembered me by face and name when I approached them at the IBS booth, which to me shows the level of care they have for their clients. I feel like this product is more than just software. I see CoConstruct as an extension of our team, as they truly seem to be motivated to help with achieving growth and success for our company partially through providing a tool to organize and communicate better on jobs but also through constant feedback and checking in to be sure everything is being implemented and working for our needs. Really... I can't compliment them enough. Review Source TA Troy A. Used the software for: ### "" March 12, 2013 5.0 I'm a remodeler in Denver, CO, and use Co-construct for every one of my jobs. I have been in the building industry for over 30 years, and I have looked at literally hundreds of project management software packages. Most other packages all fall short in one area or another in the areas that are just are so critical in "hooking" everything together. Co-constuct has enhanced our operation way beyond what I expected, and does more than I thought even when I purchased it and had it "branded" to my company image. My customers think it is my software (I of course would be honest if they asked) - but they don't! They just love it. It saves them time, puts everyone (even subs) on the same page regarding schedule, material selections, and communication. We have a service and maintenance program as well and we use the system for that. For all jobs that are newly created, the customers get their own sign on and login credentials along with a very short traning video explaining the system. I have NEVER had to explain to a customer how to use the system - even for our oldest service customer - she is over 70 and hates computers! But she loves us, because we can take care of her needs and she feels in control of what's going on. All of our customers say the same thing. On Co-construct's side, the support could not be better. Co-Constuct has a HUGE data base for self help that is ready at your fingertips 24/7. If that still doesn't solve your problem, and you really need to get ahold of someone, you get a real, expert response - fast. Review Source JL Jason L. Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Streamlined organization" July 4, 2019 4.0 Buildertrend provides a great platform to work with clients on our residential construction projects. Using the portal to communicate daily with each active client helps us keep them informed and encourages participation and clarity. Pros Having all the information for a project in one place, with a customizable interface for clients Cons The cost per active job was challenging for a small company to balance with the benefits of the service. Review Source Response from Buildertrend August 5, 2019 Jason, thank you for taking the time to give us a review! We're happy to play a part in your building process. MH Matt H. Used the software for: ### "" August 31, 2011 5.0 We have been using BuilderTREND for about six months now and it has changed the way that we do business. Our company specializes in the repair of fire, water, wind, and storm damage to commercial and residential properties. These projects are like no other type of remodeling projects in the sense that instead of the customer having months to prepare themselves for the stress of a major renovation, they are literally thrown into them overnight. As a disaster restoration contractor, our projects require an emotional interaction with the customer that can easily get lost during daily conversations about scheduling and project progress. With BuilderTREND, the project information is at the customers' fingertips any time they want to see it. This allows our team to focus on more in depth, personal interactions with the customer. In our line of work, this is a home run! Our customers now have the ability to view the schedule, make selections, approve change orders and even view pictures of the different phases of the project, anytime they want to. BuilderTREND combines all of the programs that we were using previously into one easy to use, integrated package. The set up time and training period was very short and the transition was simple. So simple in fact, we haven't even had the need to call customer support. I am very happy with the program so far, and the few gripes I had in the beginning were addressed with the constant updating and program improvement that BuilderTREND provides. It just keeps getting better and better! Review Source NL Niccolo L. Buisness owner Arts and Crafts Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Software review" September 21, 2022 5.0 Great Pros It helps a man with adhd stay focused and organized. Cons There’s nothing to dislike about this company. Review Source NQ Nelson Q. Supervisor Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "User friendly" June 22, 2019 4.0 Good collaboration system. Pros Schedule reminder, progress history retrieval and collaboration. Cons I Can’t give feedbacks as I only used few areas or task of the system. Review Source CB Christina B. Sales Assistant Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Software Product Overall!!" November 20, 2018 5.0 Overall Excellent Satisfaction!! Pros Convenient, accurate, and very easy to use!! Everything you need is all in one place with a few clicks of a button. High level of customer service any time you need. Highly Recommend!! Cons It was a little confusing at first, Once spent time watching instructional video's or reading info provided by Builders trend on page it was a lot easier to maneuver Besides knowing customer support is available to help with any need was a big relief!! Review Source PT Patty T. Used the software for: ### "" November 10, 2011 4.0 We are a small General Contracting company who has spent thousands of dollars on software over the years that has ended up being trashed because of trying to take complicated programs and adapt our needs to their functionality. Finally, we found a web-based program that caters to the Home Building Industry, and has the industry knowledge to stand behind it! The application itself is easy to use, similar to the intuitiveness of MicroSoft Office so it's easy for a wide variety of users to pick up on quickly. Once you're set up, it's "out of the box" ready to go, after about an hour of training. Great graphics, impressive customer access tools, and they are continually improving functionality. It also allows us to have all the client and sub contractor information all in one place, with all the backup documents, pictures, and plans at our fingertips. Customer support is unparallel - your personal rep actually answers the phone, and they are truly interested in getting your questions and issues solved quickly and efficiently. Training is available - whenever you need it, as many times as you want it - at no extra charge. One downside is that in order to access the BuilderTREND tools daily in real time, and utilize the benefits effectively, our project managers and sub contractors need web access in the field - we are looking at buying iPads or laptops, but this can get expensive. We are still in the process of discovering all the benefits of using BuilderTREND in our daily project scheduling but so far, I am impressed. Review Source Similar Products Featured
