## Reviews

### "I don't usually gush over a program, but when I do it's Quick Bid...." — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *December 3, 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Just about everything.  Fully functional (maybe TOO functional\!) and fully customizable, to a fully trained estimator this program is a pleasure\!  It allows me to get as granular as I need to, yet it's as easy as pulling a takeoff in OST to get a price if you have your pricing already inputted.  Also service\!  Their service is the BEST\!  Great techs, great account reps, everyone is always willing and eager to help\!  Never had an issue they couldn't solve.  Also, they are very receptive to new ideas and features and uaully try to incorporate them quickly into the software
> 
> **Cons**: It's getting bloated, and it's beginning to hang up on starts.  Too many 'general exception faults' on startup now.  I hope they get this fixed, it's time consuming and would think it embarrassing to OCS
> 
> Wonderful.  I don't priase software companies very often, or to such an extent, but OCS deserves accolades on this.  Let's see if they can keep it up now that they are part of a MUCH larger company (Roper Technologies).  I'm a lifer and deep into this program.  I've set up 3 different companies that I've worked for.  A fully portable database helps a lot...

### "Great Software for Take-off and Estimating" — 5.0/5

> **Ric** | *August 11, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Once setup, it works good and comes with great support.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some bugs like database sizing, needing to compact and repair a lot, exporting projects, not showing total hours on the labor tab of QB.
> 
> Good, We have been using it for 15 years now and have not considered another product because it does what it is supposed to do.

### "Another let down customer" — 3.0/5

> **Sean** | *August 19, 2016* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use
> 
> **Cons**: Cost versus life span disappointing
> 
> Used the program for a few years It is a good program for doing take offs .mpaid just under $4k for the licence so it is fairly pricey than similar systems on the market. Fairly dumb program in that to do a complete build up estimate you Either have to pay another 4K for quick bid or develop a excel spreadsheet and live link the data which is sometime temperamental . Back up service in Australia is poor referring you to a contact in Brisbane which is pretty useless when your in Perth. Diassaponted in paying just under 4 k for the program and then receiving a email a few months ago saying I need to purchase a new licence as they are no longer supporting the dongle security versions . Would have expected a longer life out of this program will be looking at other software such as costx which is cheaper and offers more functionality .

### "More powerful tools available" — 5.0/5

> **Karen** | *October 3, 2016* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Flexible for our needs
> 
> **Cons**: Getting help if something goes wrong requires putting in a help request and waiting for an appointment with a specialist.
> 
> This software is a good tool to aid in estimating.  There are more tools than we are really equipped to use.

### "Has really speeded up our activities" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *November 5, 2018* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to produce estimates much more accurately and quickly has been useful
> 
> **Cons**: Some team members found it took them a while to adapt

Quick Bid helps contractors reduce discrepancies, identify risk factors, gain material quotes, and generate multiple reports. The software supports a variety of trades including, electrical, concrete, firestopping, interiors, flooring, landscape, roofing, masonry, steel framing, and woodworking.\n\nSeamless integration with On-Screen Takeoff allows users to perform quantity surveys and transit data directly to Quick Bid. The platform streamlines the estimating process by automating and consolidating various functions, and minimizing miscommunications and duplications. Organizations can see immediate improvements in efficiency, as well as reduce manual data-entry errors. With ‘bid areas’, users can divide quantities by building, floor, room, wing, or elevation, and create stocking lists by those areas.\n\nThe Quick Bid platform allows bids to be adjusted easily, allowing for last-minute addendum changes to be recalculated. Users can manage bids with the solution's 'Bid Navigator' that creates tabs for each bid and allows users to view conditions, equipment, labor, markups, and materials. The master database tables enable users to build price bids, modify and manage contacts, manufacturers, assemblies, and account codes.\n\nQuick Bid helps eradicate inconsistent bidding by automating the estimating process which includes quantification of material waste, current cost identification, and quote comparisons from suppliers. Users with a maintenance subscription have access to eQuotes, which allows them to send and receive quotes from suppliers electronically. Quick Bid offers custom or template assemblies in order to generate more accurate and detailed bids.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/1afb7d05-9b59-452d-a9fc-9d46f5d37f40.png","url":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/104803/quick-bid","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/104803/quick-bid#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":3.7,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":9},"offers":{"price":"0.01","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Windows"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Construction Estimating Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/27/construction-estimating/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Quick Bid","position":3,"item":"/software/104803/quick-bid","@type":"ListItem"}],"@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/104803/quick-bid#breadcrumblist"}]}
