Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Handles pretty much all aspects of managing construction jobs - crew time clock, schedules, customer interface, estimates, sub-contractor mgmt, etc. etc. etc. Many features we don't even use. They are constantly improving the product, and the customer support is excellent.
  • 1. User-friendly interface: Buildertrend has a simple and easy-to-use interface, making it accessible for anyone to use. 2. Cloud-based: Buildertrend is cloud-based, so it can be accessed anywhere with an internet connection. 3. Project management: Buildertrend allows you to manage your projects from start to finish, including scheduling, budgeting, and communication. 4. Customer portal: Buildertrend provides a customer portal, so your clients can view the progress of their project and communicate with you directly. 5. Integrations: Buildertrend integrates with other software, such as QuickBooks and Square Takeoffs, making it easier to manage your business.
  • This is the most intuitive CRM I've ever used I've used multiple CRMs In the last 15 years and this one surpassed all previous CRMs in the past love Buildertrend!
  • The idea that everything is all in one place from Lead to Estimate to Invoicing for the customer and Bids to POs to payments for the Subs.
  • The support team at Buildertrend is exceptional. Our dedicated support team for our system of forty franchise locations and growing is fantastic. They are always willing to work with us to problem solve and have timely responses every time. Buildertrend listens to client feedback and makes enhancements and updates to the system based on that feedback.

Cons

  • There are some inconsistencies between screens and there have been issues with some text entry screens not being sure data is saved before closing, although they are improving this.
  • 1. Buildertrend can be expensive for small businesses or contractors with limited budgets. 2. Learning curve: Although the interface is user-friendly, there is still a learning curve to understanding all the features and how to use them effectively. 3. Limited customization: While Buildertrend offers many features, it may not have all the customization options some businesses require. 4. Customer support: Some users have reported issues with customer support, including long wait times and difficulty getting issues resolved. 5. Limited mobile app: The mobile app for Buildertrend is limited in functionality compared to the desktop version.
  • Nothing at this time to complain about they have made this awesome compared to when I first used it.
  • The payment system for paying subcontractors. Printing the checks I would send to the subs did not work and banks would not honor them.
  • The lack of having an open API has been a downside to our working with Buildertrend. Being able to integrate with our CRM system would be a significant advantage to our franchise owners and also help to justify the cost of their Buildertrend subscription.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • What I like about GanttPro is the multiple features that it contains and the amount of tools that it has under one single platform that performs very good, it is a tool which main feature is the ability to create Gantt charts and visualize all projects and tasks on them, I have to say that Gantt charts are my favorite way of managing projects because I think that they are very intuitive and help understand the cycle of the project and all of its stages, as well as seeing the entire team and the tasks on them, it is a smart way to get a very clean picture of what is going on with each project. That being said, GanttPro is the perfect solution to build these type of charts and make them look extremely beautiful and totally functional, with their different views and ways to customize the entire management of it, it is specifically created to save time and start working on the project right away, being able to break it down onto different areas and get a better focus of the entire theme and tasks.
  • Very easy to learn. Even for a new user like me, it was way too simple to understand and create a project.
  • GanttPRO is a fairly student-friendly, simple and convenient tool for me to create my gantt chart. Specifically, I can either enter exact dates or drag the bars to decide the time period of each subtask and main task. There are, furthermore, many “ZOOM” settings I can choose to create long-term or short-term projects. Another key point is that I can export various types of files from my gantt chart including PDF and PNG. Without its help I will not be able to finish the challenging assignments of my art administration course.
  • It is easy to setup, easy to learn how to use and it combines two very important features, the gantt chart view, for traditional evaluation of the project with a Kanban Board view. This allows me to use just one tool to teach both concepts and to help my students to understand that both approaches are possible to combine at one project.
  • GanttPRO provides a super-effective platform for us to manage and get updates on projects. Its interface is impressive. The ease of building Gantt charts makes it one of our favorite tools for managing projects online.

Cons

  • I think that GanttPro is a software that does not have many downsides and the ones that it has it works incredibly fast to improve them and provide newer updates with more functional tools, right now I wish the calendar view was more customizable to be able to choose the preferred one, it is not as intuitive as I would like it and the scheduling option also does not work how I would like it to, with more customization options this issue could be resolved quickly. I have also experienced difficulties customizing the charts once the project becomes too big and there is much information, I would love to see automation tools being added to help organize the charts for bigger projects and provide a helpful hand to save time and to still be able to have a clear view of everything.
  • Unable to choose colors for different tasks and items.
  • There are limited colors for the tasks in the trial version. The mechanism of main task and subtask is a little bit tricky, and I cannot hide any tasks I want to hide (e.g. main tasks). (maybe just in the trial version)
  • please, note my comments at the overall box. I didn't find any particular cons.
  • When it comes to cons, I rarely found any issue for our project management.
