### "My only takeoff programme" — 5.0/5

> **Kim** | *May 24, 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I only use Groundplan now for all my takeoffs, it saves time, paper and is easily shareable with anyone who needs or wants to see the marked up plans.&#10;&#10;The programme is so simple to use when marking up a plan and then populate a quotation. Additionally these marked up plans provide our clients a clear view of what has been included in their quotation as all the listed items may not make 100% sense to them if they are not from a construction background.
> 
> **Cons**: Unfortunately being cloud based when the internet is out I have to wait a while to continue work, first world problems\!
