About

Instantly design a home, accurately price, and create a bill of materials. Create a fully-priced house plan, including a detailed bill of materials with every design change. No more weeks of back and forth to finalize and quantify house plans. Give everybody the answers they want, instantly. Help customers make informed decisions quickly and showcase your homes anywhere, anytime. Real-time updates and instant digital rendering technology allow your customers to try options, visualize and interact with design options instantly, giving them the clarity and transparency they need. With utecture, everything is integrated into a ‘living blueprint’ inventory, price files, and plan management, and siloes are broken down uniting sales, drafting, and estimating into a well-oiled machine. Errors and duplication are eliminated; see and manage live margins on inventory and jobs; multiple asset management is no more.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • HJ is very user-friendly for all levels of users (upper management down to foremen), easy to learn how to use, and the academy is super helpful for beginners as a starting point.
  • I like that HCSS products are capable of carrying us from the inception of the projects, when we develop and track potential leads, to estimating, execution, and closeout.
  • The support from HCSS is by far the best in the industry. The streamlined interface aids in training new users. The integration between systems helps ensure your data is always top tier.
  • HeavyBid and HeavyJob are both great products, when I look back I don't know how we did it before having HeavyJob.

Cons

  • HCSS is expensive, especially when you use multiple platforms of HCSS.
  • HCSS is like Windows: it's been around for a long time and has lots of customers who use its legacy systems. We are here now and need the missing features now. They work hard to accommodate us, but you can feel the delay.
  • There was some loss in functionality within HeavyJob from the Desktop version to the Web version. We hope that gets resolved in years to come.
  • All good, I really don't have any complaints other than some occasional issues with our cloud.
