"Simplicity Lost, Frustrating Experience"
What do you like best about Buildxact?

I appreciated Buildxact's simplicity, particularly on the estimating side. No matter what size project, the estimating function was simple yet very accurate. The more I used it, the more repeatable everything became. The scheduling function was also simple, with no fuss, yet it had all the info needed and presented a professional schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Buildxact?

The entire take-off and estimating function are now unbearable. If I'm part way through an estimate and want to review a past take-off, instead of simply clicking the tool button and being taken directly to the take-off, it reverts to the take-off page where I have to sift through the pages to find the take-off. Any updates that have been done over the past 24 months have been horrendous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Buildxact Excels at Estimating and Quote Generation"

Buildxact is a great estimating and quote generation program, whilst it does have some limits with financial tracking and site programs etc its strengths lie in estimating and quotes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Buildxact?

buildxact is not all inclusive for onsite works, whilst linking to safety programs and whilst being able to send out for quoting etc , often what is seen at other users scene doesnt look as good as it could when sent through buildxact Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Quoting and Scheduling Efficiency"
What do you like best about Buildxact?

I appreciate Buildxact for its time efficiency and how it simplifies tasks like quoting. The great templates make this process easier. I like that everything I need is in one software. Additionally, I value the takeoff tools that help with getting accurate pricing. The initial setup was very easy, which is a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Buildxact?

Maybe a section where you could have all jobs on the one schedule - so you can see a bigger picture if you are running multiple projects at once Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Loaded with functionality without the high sticker price"
What do you like best about Buildxact?

All the tools I need to run the day to day activities of my business at a price point that enabled us to onboard the platform from the opening of our business which gave us a professional platform to output consistent polished deliverables and manage all our data from estimates through the project completion. Very easy to implement, intuitive interface that even the non-computer leaning folks can use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Buildxact?

The software is geared toward residential contractors - a version for subcontractors would be awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"As easy as Excel but 100X better"

I liked how easy it was to get started and how intuitive it was after using excel spreadsheets for many years. I was able to step straight into using it in live quotes and jobs. The videos and live support were super helpful but mostly it seemed natural and was easy to pick up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Buildxact?

How much of the program's power there is still to master after 18 months of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it easy to use. The accounting part links easily across to Xero. It also makes my quotes easier to prepare for potential clients, and the quote layout looks professional helping me secure more work. It’s good value for money.
