## BuildTopia Reviews
  ### 1. Its a user friendly system with many add on's to suite any Builders needs.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alicia W. | Senior Estimator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2022

**What do you like best about BuildTopia?**

I like Buildtopia because everything is right on the first few screens or tabs. The implementation staff is great and helpful to get your system up and running.  It allows you to get all your costing in for various items and ties to the Dynamics Software.  We can carry various house budgets and copy the same budget to alter for another site without having to recreate the complete budget. Plus you can add a budget item to various budgets at the same time without having to go into each budget.

**What do you dislike about BuildTopia?**

I would love to see room codes and standards of measures added to the software. Also the addition of red line drawings.
It's a bit tricky at first to figure out and teach others until you get the hang of it and how the software works.

**What problems is BuildTopia solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are solving the issue of all our data being in one place and also only using one software system. It allows us to have our schedule, trade costing, house budgets and create POs. Plus a portal for our trades to access their POs and other information.

  ### 2. Love using Buildtopia!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2022

**What do you like best about BuildTopia?**

The most helpful module of BuildTopia to me is the sales side. Being able to manage everything related to the sales, design and closing for each buyer throughout the entire process. The homebuyer homepage is a wonderful place for the buyers to access their information after closing.

**What do you dislike about BuildTopia?**

Not being able to pull reports across multiple datasets. Would love for more emailing functions to be added to the system for tracking purposes, mainly on the trade side.

**What problems is BuildTopia solving and how is that benefiting you?**

BT helps us manage the construction schedules for our trades. TradeTopia is a wonderful addition so that the trades have thier own portal to access thier information.

  ### 3. Not just another piece of software but a true partner

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy M. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2022

**What do you like best about BuildTopia?**

BuildTopia is extremely easy to use and yet a very powerful tool.  For me, BuildTopia thinks and functions how a builder does, the program is very well thought out

**What do you dislike about BuildTopia?**

There really is not much at this time I can say I dislike.  Anything that I have disliked, I have brought to the attention of customer support and those issues were discussed and changes made.

**What problems is BuildTopia solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to manage all sales, design studio content, estimating and purchasing within one easy to use software which we are finding to be far more productive in our operations.

  ### 4. BuildTopia saves us time and money!

Buildtopia is a true web-based solution that is easy to access for all of our users. Very easy to use and interacts well with Sage solutions. Customer service is incredibly responsive.

**What do you dislike about BuildTopia?**

Honestly can't think of a downside, good solution.

In this new era of office-less workplaces, this allows all users to access and collaborate with ease.

  ### 5. Awesome product!

**What do you dislike about BuildTopia?**

Very user unfriendly. You need to take a class on how to learn it.

It houses all of our things we incorporate into a home from start to finish!

  ### 6. Perfect for Builders

Tracking trades, invoices, sales activities, build process, NSOs, warranty
