Drag-and-drop takeoff and estimating solution

About PlanSwift

PlanSwift, by ConstructConnect, is a cloud-based takeoff and estimating solution designed for commercial and residential contractors, subcontractors, and estimators within the HVAC, drywall, electrical, concrete, plumbing industries. Contractors and estimators can create digital assemblies and utilize drag and drop capabilities to combine assemblies with takeoff items and propose accurate estimates.

With PlanSwift, users can streamline the takeoff process just by using point and click functionality to measure areas, items, lengths, volumes, and perimeters within a matter of seconds. Drag-and-drop capabilities allow users to drag pre-configured or newly created assemblies onto takeoff items to calculate material, waste, and labor costs and expenses. For any project change, PlanSwift is able to adjust cost projections, change product cost and recalculate expenses on a whim.

Very easy to take off quantities

Reviewed on 2020-06-13

Pros

I really like the easy take-off process that is given by this software. It is time-saving and leaves a track in the drawings where we can later review our takeoffs. We can easily generate marked drawings with quantity summaries on those drawings whereas the consultant or client can easily check the quantities.

Cons

I prefer if it had the possibility to generate reports with drawing wise quantity summary.

The accurate quantity takeoff from the PDF format drawings.

The accurate quantity takeoff from the PDF format drawings.

Pros

It is one the best quantity takeoff software that I have ever used. It really match with PDF format drawings and give you the ability to categorize and organize the bill of quantities inside the software and transfer them to Excel. You can also apply the unit rates and build up an estimate. Very appropriate for building works including residential and ICI.

Cons

The software has been designed mostly for 2D drawings. When it comes with 3D such as cut & fill takeoff, it doesn't work. I don't recommend the software for heavy-civil jobs.
