Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • We are grateful to BuildOps for revolutionizing the way we handle dispatch and scheduling of our teams. Their technology has propelled us forward in leaps and bounds.
  • We are thoroughly satisfied with the value we have received from this platform. The offerings are great and the pricing is just right. The customer service team was especially helpful in getting us up and running. Really like mobile capabilities for our technicians in the field.
  • BuildOps provides great customer support to help customers run their business more efficiently. The platform offers a variety of functions to help streamline operations and increase productivity.
  • I’ve used other construction management software in the past, but BuildOps has been the easiest to use by far. Their customer service team is always available to help with any issues you may have, which is great. It’s obvious that they really care about their clients and providing them with the best tools possible.
  • BuildOps has been an invaluable asset to my business, allowing me to present a professional image to my clients. As a one-man operation, I am always looking for effective and efficient ways to manage my workload. BuildOps has been integral in this, automating tasks that would have taken me much longer to complete. My customers appreciate the automated reminders and notifications, ensuring that all tasks are completed on time and that communication between us remains clear. Thanks to BuildOps, I have saved time and energy in running my business, and I'm immensely grateful for their support.

Cons

  • Allow for an additional two weeks in the crew training planning timeline.
  • This product provides excellent MEP functionality, although it may be a bit expensive for small companies in the field.
  • From time to time, all platforms require some form of adjustment and BuildOps is no different. With their suite of apps and integrations, the team at BuildOps provides customers with the best possible experience. Their customer support team is always available to help with any issue, no matter how small. They strive to ensure that all customers feel heard and appreciated.
  • It's too early to make a definitive statement, but in the few months that we've been using BuildOps, we've been really pleased.
  • I have a small business, and BuildOps has been perfect for my needs. It performs exactly as I require, i heard that larger businesses may not get the full range of features they're looking for.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I really like how easy it is to schedule jobs and see where my guys are on the map. The automated texts to customers are a life saver because they keep everyone updated without me having to call every person manually. Also the payment system works great and we get paid much faster now.
  • Super easy and fast setup — We were up and running in just a few days - can't afford long downtimes. quick learning curve, user-friendly with a clean design; both office staff and field techs picked it up fast without needing extensive training. Powerful automations that save tons of time Automated reminders, A BIG UPVOTE FOR US!!! follow-ups on invoices, review requests, "on-my-way" texts, and lead responses work flawlessly and have cut our manual work by hours every week.
  • Workiz is easy to use, with an intuitive interface that makes it simple for both admins and field workers to navigate. It offers strong automation, reducing manual work by handling scheduling, dispatching, and follow-ups efficiently. The visual scheduling feature allows for easy drag-and-drop job management, making rescheduling quick and hassle-free. The dispatch board is highly effective, letting users assign workers based on service areas and skills, ensuring the right technician is sent to the right job. The online booking tool improves website conversions by allowing customers to book services directly. Another advantage is that Workiz has no large upfront costs, offering flexible pricing without requiring expensive multi-year commitments. Additionally, AI-powered features are in development, promising to further enhance automation and efficiency in the future.
  • There is practically no support for the program. The robot politely answers you and apologizes for the inconvenience.
  • Price kinda... The price was literally the only positive about the system, and even that has dwindled down over the years. They have slowly made more and more of the system an option to be paid for.

Cons

  • i wish there were more options to customize colors in the calendar to make it look even cleaner. it's a very small thing and doesn't affect the work but would be a nice bonus to have.
  • Pricing can add up with extras and larger teams (i need lower prices please Workiz. ;)) )
  • One of the downsides of Workiz is its limited charge type flexibility, requiring users to create duplicate services just to differentiate between charge types, which adds unnecessary work. Another area for improvement is team organization, as there isn’t a dedicated section for grouping workers by zones and skills, making large team management more cumbersome. Additionally, service area creation could be more efficient. Currently, users must manually enter zip codes one by one, whereas an option to automatically generate service areas from an array of zip codes would save time. While Workiz is actively improving, deeper customization options would make it a better fit for businesses with unique workflows.
  • After the last update things got really bad. Firstly, the font and icons are smaller and have poor contrast. For those who do not work in the office on a computer, but in the field use this program on a phone or tablet, it has become much more difficult to work. A magnifying glass is required to read the information. It is not possible to enlarge the text by zooming in. The copy text is not copied by the client. It is not possible to copy the necessary information and send it to the office or somewhere else. The icons for calling and sending a message are very close and hard to see. As a result, you often click the wrong icon.
  • Everything else.. Anything is an add-on, even some of the things that were free when I first started using the system later became an option and my price continue to increase., I'm currently paying twice what I started at. Are we do inspections so we upload a lot of photos, unfortunately it takes anywhere from 60 seconds to 5 minutes to upload a photo. We generally upload 20 to 60 photos per job so this has been a big problem. The system will also randomly lose photos a few days later. These photos should be able to be viewed by the client, but half of the time they do not come through and the client just gets a blank document. We use them documents, which took several hours to set up and design. Open the system one day and half of our inspection document was just gone. It took four hours for Support to respond, and they couldn't figure out what happened. Speaking of, by far the worst customer support I've ever had in my life. It generally takes between one hour if you're lucky up to 12 hours to get a response and if you close your application or computer in the meantime you have to start over. Just avoid this garbage..
