About

The Building Software Co. has been developing Software for builders and associated trades for over 30 years, working with large and small building companies throughout New Zealand and Australia. Developed originally by a Builder who, in the late 80's, had an interest in computers. Nobody had created a software program to handle the difficult and time-consuming process of estimating and quoting building and construction projects. Seeing the potential benefit that such a computer program could have to a builder, they decided to develop their own. The early versions of BuildMaster came out in 1987 and the quest from then on was to continuously improve the program to become the leading program of its type in Australasia. Calculate quantities using preset formulas. Price items using prices preloaded from your preferred suppliers. Print and present a professional and accurate quotation for your client.

About

The best builders choose us to make preconstruction easy. We make communication ridiculously easy. More builders choose us to send invitations to bid, qualify vendors, and track opportunities than any other software solution. Easily find and qualify subs, send custom bid invites, and communicate with everyone. Keep track of your bid invites, stay ahead of deadlines, and measure your success. Leverage the largest network of builders, view historical costs, and get real-time analytics.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Subcontractor database is very responsive. The sales team and customer service given is excellent. There was an issue and the Director of Sales jumped on it right away and got a resolution that was acceptable for all parties.
  • It allows to search by zip code based on x amount of radius miles and it can be easy to use depending on the size of the job. It also allows you to load as many subs that you can locate.

Cons

  • Currently there is a limited selection of packages, options and pricing tiers.
  • Some of the companies that it finds are sometimes suppliers and not subcontractors. You still have to sort though the populated fields. To difficult to manually add an external subs to your list in order to help keep and track all calls and emails together. Does not allow you to edit your side notes Does not let you know if an email address is good or not.
