For me, the biggest benefit is having all project-related information in one place: schedules, financials, client communication, vendor communications, and internal information management. Each project has its own dedicated space, which saves us time and effort. The interface is easy to use, and they have a team of experienced people who help you as you explore the different functionalities.

As an estimator, the integration with Home Depot and Lowe’s allows us to keep their pricing on hand for our estimates. The price is reasonable, and considering the capabilities of the software, I’m satisfied. The program is also linked to Square Takeoff, which expands my estimating capabilities without having to pay for an extra software license.

It can handle heavy loads of information, and it has improved our selection process with clients and how we communicate those selections to our team, so everyone stays informed. Recently, they’ve been implementing AI to automate processes, which is a plus—for example, generating reports for the client on project progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main drawback is that the program is always being improved, so our internal processes have to keep evolving right along with it. Ultimately, that’s a positive—a change for the better—but it does mean we occasionally need to relearn things and adapt as updates roll out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buildertrend makes scheduling, invoicing, planning, and contract writing so much easier than it used to be. plus it's all in one place! It works great with QuickBooks and makes things seamless. We very much like not having to worry about our file storage and the fact that it rarely goes down is a huge plus. It seems a bit pricy but we think it is worth it. Every single time we have had an issue the support team has been exceptional. When writing weekly updates the AI tool makes up the whole thing and only requires me to do the editing.

It would be great to be able to integrate with ADP to do payroll so that we are not stuck with having to transfer time to their system. It can be a real drag Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the AI features that Buildertrend has been bringing in and releasing such as the bill inbox and ability to quickly categorize and match up bills to POs. I also enjoy the financial clarity on jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not a fan of the pricing structure with the bill pay features. Was nice when it was cheaper to send bills via buildertrend but then it made it too expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the notes feature in Buildertrend, which allows our employees and subs on jobs to write notes and tag the person they need to read them. I appreciate the ability to track job progress and financials efficiently. The integration with QuickBooks and the option to upload job pictures are great. I enjoy that homeowners can see updates in real time, fostering transparency. The color coordination for different scheduled subcontractors makes it easy to read and manage tasks. Having our employees able to clock in/clock out, and calculate hours and billing progress simplifies our workflow. Overall, the initial setup was easy, which was beneficial for our team.

i love buildertrend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buildertrend is essential for managing day-to-day operations and keeping our clients in the loop on their projects. It’s a one-stop shop for everything we need to manage a construction project effectively. I especially love the change order and purchase order system, along with the budget tools, which make it easier to stay organized and on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The selection tool isn’t very user-friendly and feels too complicated to use, so we still have to rely on an outside program for this. I also dislike the constant upgrades to certain parts that already work perfectly fine, and I wish we could choose whether to revert to the previous version of a feature.

With one app I can share plans, schedules, daily reports, product information and ask questions with my coworkers, clients and subcontractors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using the app requires a good data or wifi connection to upload photos and plans and sometimes on our job sites we struggle to get a good service to effectively use the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Buildertrend's scheduling and to-do list features, which help me deliver projects on time. The daily logs are great for maintaining project updates and keeping clients updated through reports. These features are really useful for managing our multiple running projects and ensuring on-time delivery within our timelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the recent updates, their documents are not working properly as it's blinking while opening. Also, the comments section is sometimes annoying. Initially, we had issues using its to-do lists and maintaining every project update in the daily log. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They are ever-changing, and it's hard to keep up with all the changes. I would like to see more in-person workshops or virtual training when changes come to the platform. Not everyone learns well being self-taught. I would like to see AI help with writing within the platform. I would like to be able to email blast clients for marketing to where the actual marketing piece is in the body of the email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is one platform that my whole company can use, and It has all of the information we need on a day-to-day basis. I also really like that it syncs with QuickBooks very quickly which makes tracking project financials a lot more manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are some bugs or errors that can be annoying and make things take longer than they should. I find that this mostly happens with the lead proposals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
