### "Daily PlanSwift user."

May 13, 2016

4.0

Pros

This software is an affordable plan take-off software. I use it to take off mechanical drawings. The software is not exactly what I need because I have to build conditions on each plan. Other than that it is a great program.

Cons

No built in data bases. Only outside homemade for fee tag on programs.

September 28, 2016

4.5

Pros

It's portability and accuracy. The way one is able to easily take measurements and color code different areas of any plan.

Cons

I really cant say anything negative about the product and vendor. Their style of presentation is great. the trial period allows for good practice and mastery of the program.

### "Great product"

December 13, 2016

5.0

This is a great takeoff software. We have a different software for pricing and cost estimates, but it seems to work well in that regard as well. I can see us possibly utilizing the estimating portion of Planswift in the future. All said, we are very happy with the parts of Planswift we use.

Pros

Takeoff software Ease of use
