I recently needed to better understand phasing and it was beating me. I used their training manual their online video and still I could not figure out to seperate out my phases they sent me a video walk through step my step to exactly the info I needed free of charge, they never charge for training or IT Support. > > **Cons**: the selecter tool icon the cross and window crossing it could be simpler ----- ### "Happy Customer- Florida" — 5.0/5 > **Jenna** | *February 21, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use and accuracy of site work take-off. > > **Cons**: The difficulty of aligning match lines on one page. > > There is a lot to learn, but doing so makes an accurate take off much easier. My accurate take offs impress the GCS right off the bat. ----- ### "Insite" — 4.0/5 > **Paul** | *February 24, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: The educational support and tutorials available. 3-D Live as it helps you find mistakes in your entered grades. Additionally, the reports which you can generate help in making accurate cost estimates. The integration of Insite Elevation Pro into our business processes helped to strengthen our overall estimating process. > > **Cons**: As with most software products you have to take the time to learn and educate yourself about the product. > > Our overall experience with Insite Elevation has been good. ----- ### "Best Affordable Earthwork Takeoff Software on the Market" — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *March 4, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The accuracy of cut and fill quantities for the amount of time spent working on a project in InSite Elevation can provide is top notch. To complete a cut and fill by hand and calculate it on your own to the degree of detail InSite can do would take exponentially more time. > > **Cons**: The takeoff tools provided in the software that are not cut and fill related(linear foot measurements, area measurements, counting) are not as adequate compared to other takeoff software out there. > > Overall I am very pleased with my use of InSite Elevation. It saves me countless hours of cut and fill calculations, provides very clear and accurate results, and is very user friendly. The technical support they provide to their customers is great, and the development team is very active about optimizing the software to it's customers. My only caveat about the product is I do still use other takeoff software to do measurements besides the cut and fill quantities and surface square footage. That being said, the combination of InSite and another software like Bluebeam is still far cheaper per month in subscriptions than the more expensive earthwork software out there. ----- ### "30+ year heavy civil contractor turned freelance takeoff guy." — 5.0/5 > **Jeff** | *February 21, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I will have to say that one of the best features of this product is the support staff\!The software does what it is supposed to with some limitations but overall delivers great information. It offers great features such as the dynamic site balancer and being able to export that data layer out to a CAD file. The KMZ feature is really nice especially with hand held technology now days. The old ways was walking around in the woods with a roll of plans and a compass trying to figure out where you were on the project site. > > **Cons**: It would be nice to develop a custom data base library of subgrades that could be accessed instead of having to rebuild them on each project. If there was a way to remove CAD file layers from the file to reduce the file size once it is imported into the software. If the active pdf export could be scaled so that it can be printed off on 24x36 and be to scale. Currently it is set to a 200x200. This creates a very large data file. If there is a better way to phase a project other than saving as a new then the transfer of proposed to existing layers. If the training manual and videos show more in depth details of possible shortcuts or what to do if this happens scenarios. > > Overall I am very satisfied with the software and what I am able to do with it. I was able to pick up and start performing takeoffs after a few hours of self teaching and the one on one training. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2047495/insite-sitework?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2047495/insite-sitework) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
