Construction Estimating Software Resources

I need an estimating tool that offers prebuilt or customizable templates tailored to specific trades (e.g., electrical, plumbing, civil) so I can jumpstart estimates without reinventing the structure each time.

From the tools mentioned earlier:

• Autodesk Construction Cloud supports sample project templates tailored for specialty contractors, enabling you to start with templates specifically designed for your trade workflows.
• Methvin allows creating reusable templates and worksheets (assemblies, custom schedules) that suit different construction disciplines and project types

Have you tried any of these?

I need a construction estimating solution that helps contractors create accurate bids, manage takeoffs, and track costs efficiently, with features like cost databases, proposal templates, cloud collaboration, and integration with project management tools.

Based on G2 data and user feedback, some top contenders include:

• Autodesk Construction Cloud, a comprehensive construction management platform that connects estimating, project management, and design workflows, is ideal for contractors seeking an integrated, all-in-one ecosystem.
• Procore, a powerful project management and estimating solution built to streamline financials, resource allocation, and collaboration across teams from pre-construction to closeout.
• Methvin is a free, cloud-based estimating platform tailored for construction professionals, offering precise estimates, project tracking, and strong collaboration tools, ideal for small to mid-sized contractors.
