"Building Connected is your Bid Management Solution"

5/5

What do you like best about BuildingConnected Pro?

I really enjoy the robust access to subcontractors and the bid leveling feature. The ability to access many different reports. The ability to see the analytics of each project my company bids helps with assessing future opportunities. I really enjoy the ability to add new subcontractors to my bid list. I also like the ability to add unsolicited bids when leveling my bids. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuildingConnected Pro?

I honestly don't have many dislikes about this program. I guess the one gripe I have is the ability to update invalid emails for subcontractors. The companies that do not have valid emails should be purged from the system until the email is updated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BuildingConnected Pro:

I would challenge anyone to provide a more robust bid management program than BuildingConnected Pro. The features provided by BuildingConnected Pro are not offered by anyone else that I have been able to research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuildingConnected Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem I am solving with BuildingConnected Pro is the ability to organize and efficiently level my bids. The benefits have been the reports that I am able to access through BuildingConnected Pro. Recently I had a negotiated project and the bidder lists and bidder response analytics helped with the trust between us and the client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bid Board Pro can help."

4/5

What do you like best about BuildingConnected Pro?

I think that the most helpful tool in the Bid Board Pro Arsenal is the ability to track follow-ups using the dashboard or the calendar which can sync easily to Outlook®. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BuildingConnected Pro?

Sometimes when sending Addenda notice emails they will be created as a new opportunity rather than being added to the existing opportunity. Also, when Syncing to an outlook calendar some of Outlook's Add-in's or features will not work. It is viable though and I guess that's all that really matters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BuildingConnected Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Missing followups is always a potential but with the way reminders are set up it is simple and easy to follow-up while having the Bid Board open filtering "Submitted" and leave comments either while you're talking or even cut and pasting replies form perspective customers to the whole team has access to those notes wirelessly. This helps keep everyone on the same page and affords us the opportunity to be flexible and collaborative. My follow-up Game is Rock Solid and I believe that has been helpful in staying "Front of Mind" with our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about BuildingConnected Pro?

I like how it integrates a lot of our precon - Solicitation, communicating to trades, bid forms, check-outs & qualification of trade partners with TradeTapp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
