## Reviews

### "Just what we needed." — 5.0/5

> **Shane** | *January 15, 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to use, being able to upload the drawings and do the takeoffs has saved us heaps of time.
> 
> **Cons**: While it's not really a con, we already use a CRM and project management software for our jobs and cost tracking so these features aren't really relevant to us.
> 
> Buidxact has sped up our estimating and the templates we've created have made us a lot more efficient.

### "Builder Review for Buildxact" — 5.0/5

> **Andre** | *December 12, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: To many to describe. The most i like is its layers of complexity. You don't have to use them but boy if you do. You can create material order lists from the takeoff. with in a few clicks and send that to your supplier.  The support team and Buildxact are great. Very helpful and quick to respond.
> 
> **Cons**: Can't really complain its a 98% complete package with out the nonsense of needing other software. They also have been developing it for years with suggestions from the user.
> 
> It saves me lots of time and gives me security in my management of our company. Tried and tested and bullet proof.

### "Bx" — 3.0/5

> **Gary** | *April 5, 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The set out and ease of use is good. &#10;The take off allows for basic functions and calculations.&#10;Job control is good
> 
> **Cons**: Bx Has some annoying traits  &#10;Take off is slow when a decent template is used. You have to go in and out of the take off for every item. &#10;The program basically shuts down by8:30 , 9pm and is useless. &#10;the email functions eg emailing Po's from the system are so unreliable that we don't use them. We save and email from outlook. &#10;The client portal is not very good and we are not using it. &#10;POs cant be ordered by supplier which is very annoying.&#10;Invoices get scrambled if you try to move the order.

### "Great Software for Small Businesses" — 4.0/5

> **Marcos** | *January 19, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a great tool for quoting as you can set up formulas and the quote itself looks really professional and visually attractive.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the numbers and percentages are hard to understand and sometimes they don't match in a logical manner.
> 
> We had to spend a few hours/days setting up the tool for quoting, tracking expenses as they were being allocated in the wrong field when synced with Xero and making it fully synced.

### "Best band for you buck" — 5.0/5

> **Jordan** | *September 21, 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to setup and start using from day one regardless of your skill level.  Intuitive setup and all the features one needs to professionally quote and manage a construction project.  Lots of built in tools to help those just starting and tons of customization options to mold the platform to work with your specific business.
> 
> **Cons**: Time card application and RFI/submittal tracking would elevate this product beyond all others in the market.
> 
> Buildxact was exactly what I needed to run my business at a professional level without forking out tons of cash for features I don't need.  Their team works to help you get exactly what you need out of the software.  I highly recommend this to anyone from residential to high end commercial contractors of all trades.
