## Reviews

### "Surprisingly simple - but powerful" — 5.0/5

> **Hayk** | *May 9, 2025* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It provides an easy to use interface for my team to collab on construction documents. We were able to streamline and standardize our approval process.
> 
> **Cons**: It currently does not have a fully built out drawing management tool, but their tech team promised to work with us to support our needs.
> 
> Our overall experience has been very good. The product is undervalued for what it provides for our team\!

-----

### "Project Administrator" — 4.5/5

> **Alaina** | *March 12, 2015* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to use and allowed for workflow transparency across multiple facets of the project. The administrators could easily track how items were progressing through the approval chain for existing projects and subcontractors could easily access documents for prospective projects.
> 
> **Cons**: The project setup was rather cumbersome and would sometimes delay initial entry of the project. A new project required entry of the contract and subcontract information and was duplicative for our company due the use of an existing accounting system. Also, we had some difficulty with the management of the approval chain process itself. Some approval aspects just couldn't be linear.

### "Good Value" — 3.5/5

> **Gene** | *June 15, 2016* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use and great templates. Vendor provides excellent training and follow up.
> 
> **Cons**: Help button does not address problems with navigation

-----

### "Save time and be organized - Professional management program" — 5.0/5

> **Brandon** | *September 15, 2015* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: My project is tracked with Building Blok. I like that subs can view all the project documents on the site, submit change order requests and pay apps. It's been a great system and I can't image doing commercial projects without it.
> 
> **Cons**: Getting small subcontractors to use Building Blok is the only challenge. I will say that when I have a contractor resisting getting logged in, I just call Building Blok and they take them step by step to get them in the system.

### "2 Thomas College Projects" — 4.0/5

> **Dan** | *March 12, 2015* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to use, and it was very affordable. They have great customer support.&#13;&#10;We were new to file sharing programs like this, and this did allow us to understand the pros and cons of using such a system, while not spending a lot of money.
> 
> **Cons**: I get the feeling that we were at the early stages of the product development. So, we ran into a few more problems using it than I thought we would. But again, all issues were resolved immediately.
