Estimator Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great tool for estimating" July 29, 2025 5.0 Overall good experience, it is really easy to adjust conditions at least in my case for roofing. Easy to review and adjust projects, the PDF viewer and page creationg can have some minor improvements. Pros The easy way to build an estimate. For roofing it is really easy to adjust conditions to meet your project needs. Cons In some cases it crash when working abroad. Due to language or regional configuration it crashes when working abroad. Switched from [Leap](https://www.capterra.com/p/162690/Leap/) The Edge is more dedicated to 07 division. Review Source Response from Foundation Software August 2, 2025 Thank you, Jose! We're glad The EDGE is working well for your roofing estimates. We appreciate your note about working abroad—our team will keep that in mind as we continue to improve! SC Scott C. SENIOR ESTIMATOR PROJECT MANAGER Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "GREAT PRODUCT" November 5, 2025 4.0 I really like working on the Edge. I feel it's accuracy and customization features for our scopes puts us a step higher than our competition. I would highly recommend this product for your estimating needs. Pros Customer support, accuracy, reports, being able to customize your own databases, groups & conditions. Set up is pretty easy for our techs. The admin portal is also an excellent resource. They stay on top of bugs and issues. A great tool for bidding & estimates. Security seems pretty tight too. As far as value for the money, it tends to lean towards the pricier side of estimating programs. I do feel it does give us an edge, though. Cons I feel it can be a little too deep sometimes. A cut & paste for the conditions from the take off screen tree would be extremely convenient. It also does not always start on the most recent condition that you edited. It will often begin the takeoff from the last condition that you used rather than the last condition that you edited. Review Source Response from Foundation Software November 7, 2025 Thanks for sharing your detailed feedback, Scott! We're thrilled to hear The EDGE has been a valuable and accurate tool for your estimating work. Your suggestions on condition editing and takeoff functionality are appreciated — our team continuously works to enhance workflow efficiency, and insights like yours help guide those improvements.

This is not an out of the box system at all. If you are making a complete change from paper take off's and excel sheets like my company was it will take weeks and months to get this to work how you want. We have taken two trips, 1 week each, to their headquarters to have our database's set up along with countless hours and minutes of phone calls to their tech department. The owner who bought the program said that we should be able to figure out most of the database setup in house. I can tell you after going to in house training twice there is absolutely no way I would have known how to set this up. After 1 1/2 years of using the system I still find it confusing at times when you aren't doing simple jobs. We mainly use EDGE for Acoustical Ceiling take off's. That also seemed like the easiest to get set up. 99% of the time this works perfectly but there are some jobs that just doesn't seem to calculate right, in particular long hall ways and curves. We most recently had our databases set up for Fireproofing, EIFS, and DEFS. I have to say once the fireproofing is set up it is a complete life saver. The way the old estimator here would do fireproofing take off's was very mistake filled because the hundreds of factors to take into account i.e UL Codes, thicknesses, member sizes, etc. DEFS also works quite nicely but that is a fairly simple take off, square footage with your materials and labor associated with that square footage. We are still working a few bugs out of our EIFS take off's. They aren't quite where we want them on the labor side so I am constantly checking them with our existing excel formulas we have used for years. The people that work for the EDGE, in particular the training and tech support, are always more than willing to help out and are always friendly. My biggest gripe with the system is the difficulty of getting set up initially and also when you come across something unique getting it to work in the program. Once the leg work is done to get the system set up like you like the program really does run smooth. In the long run it is a giant time saver. For example a 50k sqft ACT job that used to take a whole day to take off on paper literally takes minutes. Pros The time saving aspects of the quantity take off's Cons The initial set up time Review Source Response from Foundation Software May 5, 2017 Thank you for your review and comments.

JD Jade D. Project Engineer Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "PASS THE EDGE & TO THE TOP" April 16, 2026 5.0 I love EDGE and will always recommend to my fellow estimators. 10/10 . A+ Pros What I like most about EDGE is that you can practically build everything you need from one section detail in ONE condition, rather than creating multiple. It saves a lot of time when the jobs are massive, and you are bidding more than one job. Cons What I least like is the security and licensing of EDGE. Security makes it hard to long on anywhere I am. Licensing makes it hard for multiple estimators to be on one job. Review Source Response from Foundation Software April 21, 2026 Jade, thank you for the amazing review! We’re thrilled The EDGE is helping you save time on complex bids. We appreciate your feedback and your recommendation. RM Richard M. Technical Director, Consultant, Estimator Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best estimating and project management tool for me." December 9, 2025 5.0 I have been using The EDGE since \[sensitive content hidden\] first started it, back in the 70's. I used it at my two companies, later introduced to two other companies where I worked after I sold my company. I've since retired and came back and have now introduced it to the two new companies that I work with. \[sensitive content hidden\] has always been there for me and very helpful. The support team has always been available and very helpful. The EDGE has provided me with as accurate an estimate that one could produce, and also provides the means to purchase and manage a project with materials and labor, as long as the user takes the time to dial in his database and insert the correct information. Once that's done, it's a mandatory tool where I work. Pros It's thorough, adaptable, and can give me what I need. I've used the EDGE ever since \[sensitive content hidden\] started it. The support team is always there and always helpfull. \[sensitive content hidden\] has always been very supportive throughout the years. Cons The snap to box is too small and hard to see on some plans. It would be nice if this was adjustable. Review Source Response from Foundation Software December 10, 2025 Thank you, Richard! We truly appreciate your decades-long trust in The EDGE. It’s great to hear the software continues to support your estimating and project management needs. We're also glad our support team has been consistently helpful throughout the years. Your feedback on visibility for the snap-to box is valuable, and we’ll make sure it gets to the right team for review. Thank you again for your enduring partnership. BD Brian D. Senior Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best estimating software on the market" January 6, 2026 5.0 I have had great experiences with the edge, and since I own it personally, it's helped me gain employment wherever I go. Pros I've used it for 14 years now, and there simply isn't a better software out there. I like the way I can manipulate all areas of the program to suit our personal needs. Cons The change to version 12 from version 10 introduced auto panning by running the cursor to the edge of the screen. This is great, but in Version 10, the arrow keys moved the screen around very quickly and was more user friendly. In version 12, the arrow keys work, but they barely move the screen, so it's no longer useful. Alternatives considered [plexxis](https://www.capterra.com/p/126586/WinBID/) Reason for choosing The EDGE Familiarity, and stellar customer support Review Source Response from Foundation Software January 7, 2026 Hi, Brian!

We’re glad the flexibility and customization continue to support the way you work, and we appreciate the specific feedback on navigation between versions. It’s great to hear The EDGE has played a role in your career success, and we’re proud to support you with the customer service you mentioned. RW Robert W. Project Manager Estimator Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Learning as I go" November 5, 2025 5.0 Not being a real Tech person it's a learning curve, i have taking a couple classes but there is much to learn. More description on the items to the left as to what they are below them would be very helpful. Pros Still Learning but to be able to capture zones as GC's require breakouts more and more. And for Alternates to be able to quickly shut areas to recalculate bids and alternate pricing quickly. Plus the ability to create budgets easier and faster Cons Trying to locate Sheets, when images are downloaded the come out in different orders, ie it will go 1 36, 37 38 39, 40, 2, 55 56 57, 3, etc. not sure why it does that. Review Source Response from Foundation Software November 7, 2025 Thanks for the thoughtful review, Robert! We're glad to hear The EDGE is helping you manage zones, alternates, and budgets more efficiently. We appreciate your feedback on image order and item descriptions — our support and training teams are always refining resources to make the learning curve smoother. RK Robert K. V.P. Commercial Roofing Operations Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "28 Year EDGE user" December 8, 2025 5.0 I've been using the EDGE for roofing estimating since 1998. It has gone through some major "version" changes over the years. I have always been an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" type person. However, I've decided that all of the version changes ended up being useful and/or necessary in the long run. Pros I see it as a full-blown roofing estimating program with all the reports I would ever need. Great customer support. I still bid a few projects by hand, but probably 95% of my bidding is using the EDGE. Performance and speed seem great, but I've never used any other estimating programs to compare it with. As for value for the money, I've never had the opportunity to compare it with other programs. I've had no problems with security. Cons When I was informed that I HAD to switch over to Ver.-10 from Ver.-7.9, since they were no longer going to support 7.9, I was not able to save ANY of my "hundreds" of previous jobs from the past 20+ years. It also didn't allow me to transfer ANY of my custom data base that I had built over the past 20+ years. That switch was a very uncomfortable time for me. Review Source Response from Foundation Software December 9, 2025 Robert, thank you for being a dedicated EDGE user for more than 25 years. We’re glad to hear the software continues to support your roofing estimates with the reporting, speed and reliability you need. We also understand how difficult the transition from Version 7.9 to Version 10 was, especially with so many years of work behind you. Feedback like yours is invaluable as we improve future upgrade experiences. We truly appreciate your trust in The EDGE and your continued partnership. AH Ashley H. Commercial Program Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Edge Excellence!" April 13, 2026 5.0 Pros It's relatively easy to learn, intuitive, and user friendly. As we learn more about the Edge, we're learning how to be more efficient and accountable in our business. Cons I don't like that there's not a whole lot for user learning outside of corporate training. It would be nice to have more resources available to help us set up things or manipulate things on the admin side for example. Review Source Response from Foundation Software April 16, 2026 Ashley, thank you for your feedback! We’re glad The EDGE is helping your team become more efficient and accountable. We appreciate your input on additional learning resources as we continue expanding support and training options. JO Jodi O. Administrative Assistant Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple and Hassle Free" April 16, 2026 5.0 Pros The process is so easy and smooth. It really makes putting together estimates hassle free and saves SO much time. Cons The only issue I've ever experienced with this program is it will occasionally freeze up. But I'm not sure it's the program as much as it is my PC. Review Source Response from Foundation Software April 21, 2026 Jodi, thank you for the positive review! We’re glad The EDGE is helping make estimating faster and hassle free. We appreciate your feedback and your trust in the platform. DD David D. Estimator Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Happy end user" May 21, 2025 4.0 27yrs of use and it is the only product that I would recommend. I have looked at other systems and they don't measure up. Pros I enjoy that even though it has changed over the years the function and ease of use is still simple. Cons Still see glitches now and again and sometimes slow to react when working on the cloud-based version. Review Source Response from Foundation Software May 23, 2025 We really appreciate your long-standing trust in The EDGE—27 years is incredible!

Manager Construction Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Great Product!" February 16, 2026 5.0 Just did a video intro seems to be amazingly helpful! My estimator and PM seemed to really think its a great value add. Pros Great customer support! Great demo call learning all about it. My estimator liked the process we look forward to implementing it in the future. Cons Nothing so far we haven't had a chance to implement this into foundations, but look forward to it soon. Review Source Response from Foundation Software February 23, 2026 Heather, thank you for the 10/10 review! We’re thrilled your team enjoyed the demo and sees the value in The EDGE.

Assistant Project Manager Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Highly recommend" January 19, 2026 5.0 A++ glad we finally decided to implement this software. Looking forward to the transition. This will be a time saver. Pros So far the training has been outstanding! Customer Support A+. This is going to streamline our estimates and our bidding process. Cons Can't really think of anything. Still in training but I feel the program has what we need to be successful. Review Source Response from Foundation Software January 20, 2026 Thank you for the great review, Heather!

HR Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The Edge Software: Streamlined, Strong, and Reliable" January 8, 2026 5.0 Overall experience has been positive. We are all still learning and finding ways to do MORE with the software each day. Pros Customer support has always been 100% & I feel as though the securities in place for this software are great! Cons Learning new softwares always has its cons; however if you are familiar with how the system "should" operate, it gives you a good starting basis. Review Source Response from Foundation Software January 9, 2026 Thank you for the thoughtful review! We’re glad support and security stand out, and we’re excited to see your team continue unlocking more value. LL Levi L. Roofing Commercial Estimator Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The EDGE Review" January 7, 2025 5.0 Using The EDGE has been beneficial to my estimates and time management. Pros I enjoy the UI and ease of use of the software. Cons I dislike how some functions aren't explained or outlines clearly. Review Source Response from Foundation Software January 9, 2025 Thank you for your positive feedback on The EDGE!

Estimator/Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Edge Software = More time and more money" April 7, 2017 5.0 I've been using the Edge Estimating Software program since 2005 and have been happier as a commercial roofing and waterproofing estimator ever since. The ease of use ing the Edge estimating software program is very easy to use - a 10 as a perfect score; however, you do need to go to Florida for a week of training, which I highly recommend so you can learn all the features and how to use them correctly. The features and functionality of their estimating software program allow you to bid much quicker and efficiently - a score of 10. What used to take me 10 hours to perform a complete take-off, with labor and material totals, now only takes 30 to 45 minutes. This allows me more time to bid more projects and help make the company more money in the process. The value of the estimating system pays off for itself with the first job you sell! Plus, knowing the Edge system has all the templates for almost any type of commercial roofing system and manufacturer helps to make sure there are no mistakes and nothing is left out on your bid. The days of having to look at 36" x 42" blue lines is over. You simply download a pdf on your screen, set the scale correctly, and you are ready to perform your entire take-off. I use the Edge reports to give our foreman and superintendent the labor and material take-off's which shows them if they are going over the budget and helps them to get back on track if necessary. I sometimes make colored prints of the roof plan showing the complete take-off with the associated legend to help the client better understand what is involved in their re-roof project or new roof project. I can continue to go and on about the benefits of using the Edge system, but just know that the value of the Edge will give you peace of mind and help save the company thousands of dollars in preventing material shortages, due to estimator errors(the old fashion way) as well as how much labor dollars you will spend in manhours and crewdays you will need for each job....I cannot put a dollar amount for this value because it is priceless and worth every penny spent on the Edge Estimating software program. The customer support has been very beneficial over the years and continues to be so. If I ever have a problem or need to ask a question, I simply call the Edge and talk to a technical representative and in less than 5 minutes, I'm a happy customer all over again. The overall quality rating of the Edge system is a 10! Pros How nothing is missed on a typical take-off. All the labor and materials are completely figured for you while performing each command. Cons N.A.....everything is great! Review Source Response from Foundation Software May 5, 2017 Thank you for your review and comments. OA Obada A. Civil Site Engineer Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An good tool for analyzing and pricing bids, as well as project management." March 3, 2022 5.0 The EDGE has helped us a lot in developing our bidding department, and has improved the quality of our pricing and contract management processes. Pros The EDGE helps in organizing and displaying a lot of useful data for accurate estimation of bids, and helps in automating all functions of pricing and submission of bid documents. I also like how The EDGE can be used as a project management tool, which allows accurate tracking of tasks and enables the work team to collaborate in preparing work programs and technical and financial reports. Cons With proper training, there's no need for exhaustion, since all tasks will be completed on time.

Estimator Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "EDGE Review - Dane Lantry" April 3, 2017 5.0 Overall very exceptional program. There are a few items i wish could be implemented in an upcoming update: - Drawing Maneuverability - I have used AutoCAD extensively and the zooming/panning operation with the mouse is much better/easier than what the EDGE currently offers. The zoom function is achieved by rolling the wheel of the mouse and the panning is achieved by holding down the wheel while moving the mouse. Currently the EDGE zooming is much slower and hard to control either with the keyboard (ctrl++/-) or the zoom window in the top right corner. Panning is not very user friendly whether the window in the corner or the keyboard arrows are used. - Customizing Reports - the reports function of the EDGE is a very useful tool. However, sometimes i need it to spit other information out and this is not a very easy task to modify. - Excel - exporting to excel is a nice function but i have been told that importing from excel is impossible. when entering prices in the Prices screen it isn't possible to pull down a value that is the same for multiple items. This repetitive process takes time and leaves room for potentially dangerous errors. Review Source Response from Foundation Software November 8, 2017 Thank you for your review and comments.

February 5, 2020 5.0 Our company uses it's own proprietary estimating software. I use the EDGE to do quick calculations of extra stuff I need to import manually into those estimates. I realized the EDGE is somewhat flexible to do certain changes. Pros The version I use is not a user friendly, interactive . It is very technical, which I like. Not everyone learns it well, which gives me an advantage as I have learned it more than everyone else I have met that uses it. I know of companies that have purchased it and do not use it due to not having anyone proficient enough to work with it. That is my advantage to get on a good job. Cons This version can be used on up to windows 7 only, which makes it a bit obsolete. To use more advanced windows you need to upgrade to a different version and there are costs involved, plus it becomes web based and internet dependent. I don't like that at all.

The newest versions will close all the feature gaps that customer's have wanted for years. Pros The Edge will take off and price the estimate simultaneously with some minor tweaking on the front end. Cons The user interface and "DOS operating" feel creates a cumbersome feel. Review Source Response from Foundation Software May 8, 2017 Thank you for your review and comments.

Estimating Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Austin Rackley Roofing Review" July 11, 2019 4.0 We have been able to bid many more projects with the edge, with less estimators. To go along with that, estimates have become much more accurate and fool-proof. Pros I like mostly the time that it saves while estimating compared to by hand takeoffs and also the accuracy it allows if things are set up properly. I like the ability to fully customize everything from estimating templates to the reports and so much more. Cons There are several features that have been taken out in version 12 that we really liked as a company. Also there are several smaller bugs in the newer version that hopefully shouldn’t be too difficult to work out.

I think there are a few of items that would only make the program only that much better. Pros The fact it walks you through each assembly and gives you the areas you need to focus on. unlike with Qbid you have to know each part and peace before building the assembly. Cons Some of the Onscreen features of Qbid would make the edge that much better. like the ability to just select a portion of a wall assembly in stead of the entire wall. or having to break it up into small parts.

Senior Estimator/PM Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product overall" April 5, 2017 5.0 I have been using the edge software for 12 years now and so far it has been the best and well rounded system so far. The cost seems to be getting a little high compared to other programs with similar functions. I would like to see the system receive a few upgrades to justify the cost. Hopefully this will include a production control module for the project management side. Pros The accuracy of the system, the simplicity and universal use of the conditions. Cons Doesn't have enough features to assist with the project management side. Needs more control options for uploaded drawings. would really like to see a production control feature for managing projects.

I came from PlanSwift 11 and even though it was a little easier to do take-offs, the database building was much simpler with the Edge (for the most part). Overall 8/10. Pros Custom Database Building. Ease of Take-off estimating. Cons The small bugs (Crashes, install issues, etc) Not Cloud Based, yet. No tutorial on how to make custom 'reports'.

There are features (UNDO BUTTON!) that would be nice, but overall the user interface and available reports are great. Pros Easy to learn user interface. Provides usable reports. Easier and more thorough than estimating by hand. Cons No undo button. Some of the more intricate features are difficult to learn how to perform.
