About The designers of SmartContractor software have worked in the construction and software industries for over 30 years. We’ve been through it all, so we know exactly what you’re dealing with. And we work with construction professionals who use SmartContractor every day, to constantly improve and enhance the program to meet your needs. Integrated construction estimating, accounting, and project management software specifically designed for small to medium construction businesses. Integrated software means that you only enter data once, and data entered in one part of the program is available to all other parts of the system. The data that you enter in a job estimate is used in everything that SmartContractor does, so the estimate is the core of the SmartContractor system. This is what we mean when we say that SmartContractor is “integrated” construction estimating software. You enter the data once, and then use it in everything the program does.

Pros from Real Users Pros i like the fact you can upload your building plans directly & scale them , measure walls or floors right on your screen to get quick, accurate material counts & then turn a won estimate into a live project calendar & build Gantt charts, generate purchase orders & work orders for your subcontractors Integrates well with other programs. The Support is very good, I get answers within minutes. Well-rounded program, suits me well as a small builder. I can track my jobs in live time, labor hours through the buildxact onsite app are easily tracked to labor costings Extremely time saving, easy to use, basic but detailed enough for building. Great for sending off quotes to clients. Great for ordering with suppliers and for work orders for sub-contractors. Buildxact is user friendly, does everything from quoting, job management, ordering, accounting to timesheets.
