## Overview

### Key benefits of Countfire

Countfire allows you to auto-count symbols across multiple PDF drawings, drastically reducing takeoff time while increasing accuracy.&#10;&#10;Tools such as linear measurement, coverage areas and the ability to add items to drawings allow you to design your estimate as you go. &#10;&#10;Countfire includes four separate stages of checking built into the process of completing a project to help ensure accuracy.&#10;&#10;Move your takeoff into estimate in one-click, and start with an auto-populated estimate based on previous behaviour and products. &#10;&#10;Automatically see and compare changes between specifications. Helping you to revise your drawings and pricing schedules, without having to start from scratch.&#10;&#10;At the end of each project, Countfire automatically generates an Excel spreadsheet which shows project breakdowns, takeoff counts and pricing estimates.

## Reviews

### "Amazing Software - Would definitely recommend\!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Kelly** | *February 21, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy \&amp; straightforward to use. Great user interface. Reliable automated counting (if drawings are half decent\!)
> 
> **Cons**: Copying symbol selection over to new drawings \&amp; also reviewing later revisions of drawings does not always work as it should with no real explanation as to why apart from it being something related to the drawing
> 
> Great, efficient, time saver\!\!

### "Great, Intelligent Software" — 5.0/5

> **Tom** | *March 25, 2025* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
>

> 
> **Cons**: My only gripe is that is doesn't align with input software.
> 
> Really good throughout the whole time of using Countfire\! I have tried several other take-off packages and will come back to the intelligence of Countfire every time.

### "Countfire is a brilliant bit of technology" — 5.0/5

> **Daryn** | *March 11, 2025* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I find it very interesting learning a more up to date programme rather than the old fashioned way of highlighter and paper drawings.
> 
> **Cons**: The saving every few moves, sometimes when under pressure to get work done you forget to save every few moves. Other than that though it was great.
> 
> It was brilliant. I feel like it was fairly straight forward to pick up. \[sensitive content hidden\] did great at training me. She was patient and also let me go ahead and do it as well without telling me every single step. I learn from doing so \[sensitive content hidden\] gave me the chance to jump ahead a bit and when I made a mistake she showed me how to correct it and I found this very helpful.

> **Kevin** | *December 16, 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use. Countfire has streamlined my take-off process so much. Outputting the take-off into a format that is easily understood and edited. &#10;The ability to double check things with ease.
> 
> **Cons**: The new symbol editing features. Just not as easy as before but I am sure with time I will get used to it.
> 
> Excellent. Has totally changed our processes and streamlined tendering for us.
