Fieldwire Reviews

The overall ease of use of this product for field staff and cost was the deciding factor.

No take off feature available to integrate with excel spreadsheets.

Friendly user , easy to follow and costumer service

Need to continue the development , but nothing except that

Accessibility for the whole team, and ease of use on iPad once the project is created

Creating a new project, especially naming all the shots one by one, is atrocious sometimes. We should be able to name the same page numbers in different folders !!

More Intuitive than other software we tried. We were able to get value right away and recently had a training session to use some of the more advanced features.
The ability to access the plans or other documents anywhere via the cloud is a time saver. Great for managers that are involved in multiple projects.

It would be good if we could have a library of electrical symbols to add extra work and changes to our as builts. Or be able to build the images on a clipboard that we could paste from.

It was very easy to take photos of certain deficiencies, add tasks and assign to the different trades.

I found that the sync between my phone and my computer took a long time sometimes to connect . When you are in a hurry on the job site it could be frustrating.

I love the reports and forms that can be made within FW. I also enjoy how the tasks and checklists can be added to our maps and plans. The app is also very user friendly and makes walking job sites a breeze and allows for quick turn around times.

Pulling up reports and making changes to the plans can be cumbersome at times.

I really dont have information about IT stuff, but this software is reachable from every device and everywhere very fast. That is important. We are working in a 50FL tower which has no signal in its core, but anyways, when the tablet reaches a signal, all things done offline is sychronized for everybody at that sec. Which saves a lot of time and builds confidence

Improvements could be made by user, like open softwares, the menus may become much more editable.

This software keeps us organized and opens the communication between the office and the field.

Wish you could copy and paste templates and forms after a company has been set up.

Very good resource for tracking field production for completion for projects in a timely matter in order to keep clients happy.

The price for multiple accounts is starting to make me think about finding another resource. Getting a little expensive.

Easy to use, awesome interface and a awesome tool to track the progress and billing on any job site.

Sometimes it’s hard to touch or move objects around when page is to crowded and it takes little than extra time to upload new adding so into print for other to see.

The software was very easy to setup on our phones, ipads, pcs, tablets, etc. Just throw the plans on there and start making notes and uploading photos during the site walk.

We wish we could add the entire company but it costs too much per user.

With over 300 roofs currently this program allows me to follow the status of all of them. Plus the ability to have my foreman's enter and update remotely enables to office to have a live updated on our current projects.

I didn't like not being about to run a report on all my projects vs only being able to run a report on task.
Also I want to be able to rename the work task to HOUSES. I also don't like that you can move your side bar. Ex.... the list is Plans, Task, Photos, Form, Files, People. You can't adjust the order. Also with you are submitting a photo. You have to either take a photo or use one previously uploaded. You can't use a photo from your phone's storage and upload immediately.

information at your fingertips ease of finding data

unsure as to things I don't like until I'm in the moment

Ease of use and ease of deployment. Just the right fit

Integration between mobile and desktop. Syncing

The logical application makes training staff easy and the reporting function for exports make reviewing work much faster

Form design could be more self editing so you can re make forms to fit into current program

I can do my job from everywhere without carrying hard drawings.
I can find all site instructions and notes about my projects quickly.

I can't find something.
Everything is so important and useful.

Easy to use once you learn the software. It makes you look professional and organized while in meetings, on the job site, etc.

There needs to be a way to edit or mark sheets within the "file" portion of the software.

Very easy to follow features to guide and help user when inputting information. More features to allow images of field corrections to sent to purchasing, etc. But a very good program

Would be nice to allow accounting to inter mix with building options so marketing and accounting agreed on cost

Highly visual interface (share plans, markups, version control) between back office and field ensures a higher degree of alignment and understanding of task to be done and quality control of task completion.

The focus is on the creation of plans rather than projects, lack of single-sign-on, the layout of the screen can take some getting used to and with the large volume of information available.

Being able to document field conditions.

Menu tools a little difficult to follow.

Fieldwire is great for swiping through plans, marking up drawings, collaborating with your field staff and even doing quick takeoffs.

Fieldwire’s automatic sheet naming feature is a little buggy but with a little tweaking everything will look great.

Easy to generate reports and keep tracking of construction process

Integration with Apple Pencil I have seen a better integration with other products form competition like Plangrid.

Easy, simple, straight forward software.

If you don't take the picture while in the task, you can only upload one picture at a time to a task (on phone-not laptop, but mainly use software on phone)
