Estimator360

These guys are great! They're doing what every program out there should've been doing all along. They are taking cost code data in time (hr) format to automatically generate a production schedule on a calendar so you can visually see what should be happening and when. This allows human resource allocation to be much more efficient which of course saves money! This to me has been something I've searched hi and low for and promises have been made by other companies but none have delivered until now.

Customer service is top notch, need something answered? They're on it within minutes. They have years in the industry both on the computing side and actually running their own construction companies, not to mention their programmer is a coding ninja! I had an issue where I needed a certain feature and they put it into the program within minutes just for me, that's customer service!

You can upload blueprints or your own chicken scratch drawings into the program, it doesn't matter as you can do takeoffs quite easily once you input a few simple dimensions. Gone are the days where I need to point and click a million different points on a blueprint to get accurate quantity takeoffs. Sometimes my projects simply don't have blueprints as in the case with a simple interior remodel where none are required.

They still have work to do and they have some great plans for very useful features such as quickbooks integration, crm, etc. which makes this the perfect time to jump on board as they take requests for features very seriously. I highly recommend this program to get and keep your company organized and profitable.

Still work in progress

We are a small custom remodel and construction company. We started looking for a new software solution for bidding work last year. We tried about half a dozen different options over a couple of months and two very seriously for about four months. In the end, Estimator360 won our business very easily. The design of the system is very intuitive and easy to learn. My favorite part of the system is the way it walks you through each part of the project, from project services to demo to the building/construction/finishing of each part of whatever project we're bidding.

The other reason we decided to go with Estimator360 is the people behind it. They respond almost instantly to questions. Whether it's a question on how a part of the system works or if it's a specific material or brand of product we need added, they have offered incredible customer service from beginning to end.
