Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to learn the basics. Intuitive, visually appealing interface (duct 4.0). Much much faster than manual estimating. Useful template reports. Easily customizable.
  • I really can't think of any. The product is pricey and does not function well. You're forced to put in 100 characters for Pro's. You don't need that many

Cons

  • Resource heavy (especially RAM). Server database (duct 4.0) can be laggy. Dated interface (pipe).
  • Many, we have not won a job of any size since we purchased the product over a year ago. Support tells us we can't adjust labor multipliers on back sheet per material group ie: copper , CPVC, PVC etc. Includes many items not used or needed making #'s noncompetitive.
