BuildBook

Fantastic Value

Comentarios: Client management has been better with BuildBook, for those who choose to use it.

Puntos a favor:

It's easy to use if you're new to using construction software and don't want to spend a lot of money on an alternative like Buildertrend.

Contras:

It's newer so there are still some features that I'd like to be included like Quickbooks integration.

Alternativas consideradas: JobNimbus, Buildxact, Jobber, Buildertrend y CoConstruct

Razones para cambiar a BuildBook: I thought the ease of use and the price were better than the alternatives. Pricing is based solely on the number of users so they don't remove features if you choose to go up or down a tier.

Clean, simple and easy to use project management software

Comentarios: They have a great team that is very responsive, and keeps their customers updated with upcoming upgrades to the system. Customer service is great, and they made the transition easy.

Puntos a favor:

I love how simple this software is to use, and how well is works alongside our current processes. It's clean and easy to use for both our team and clients, and does not have all of the clutter and clunkiness that larger softwares have. It allows us to have a central hub for all project-related communications, in a clean, minimal interface.

Contras:

Scheduling could be improved a bit, and I'm confident that it will be sooner than later based on the recent updates and communications stating the upcoming upgrades that are rolling out in the coming months. Bid & PO Management is also missing, so looking forward for that to come through.

Puntos a favor:

Good tool to log information for the whole team

Contras:

the app is garbage, I can't attach photos to logs without it crashing and I loose all my text, the app often doesn't work or glithes, Its part of my position to do daily logs and often I don't do them because of the app malfunctions

LOVE this APP!

Comentarios: We have only been using BB for a few months so we still have a lot more fun to get into and learn however, what we have delved into so far has been nothing less than fantastic! This app allows you to be detailed, organized, trendy and gives your business a very professional look. The Customer service I have experienced has been excellent. Thank you for having LIVE CHAT!!

Puntos a favor:

What I like most about Build Book is that the majority of our Client job info can be tracked, entered and stored in one location and the best part is that our whole team can access all the job info seamlessly. I love the SELECTIONS Category, having a visual component in the room view is so nice! Build Book is super easy to navigate, you can add or remove as much or as little information to each job.

Contras:

It would be nice if we could customize what what categories we would like to print from the Selections category. This would be handy to be able to hand over to individual suppliers for ordering. It would also be nice if there was a communal group chat that could take place instead of only being able to chat within a particular job.

Puntos a favor:

Buildbook is easy to use for my team in the field, and also for customers.

I would like to see card displays in all areas. Creating a opportunity to project can be a little smoother.
