Disappointing Experience with Contractor Foreman – Extremely Slow and Unreliable

I’ve been using Contractor Foreman for a couple of months now, and unfortunately, the performance issues have made it nearly impossible to rely on for our day-to-day work. One of the biggest problems is how incredibly slow the platform is. It takes forever to load projects, and even simple tasks like switching between tabs or accessing the dashboard can be painfully slow. This isn’t just a minor inconvenience – it has a real impact on our team's productivity.

We’ve had to repeatedly clear the cache to try and improve the speed, but even that doesn’t seem to help much. It’s frustrating to have to wait several minutes just to get simple tasks done, especially when we’re trying to stay on top of multiple projects and deadlines.

Contractor Foreman is meant to streamline workflows and improve efficiency, but its sluggish performance has the opposite effect. I’m constantly finding myself wondering if there’s a better alternative that actually works in a timely manner. At this point, I’m really disappointed with the overall functionality, especially considering how critical these tools are for managing our work effectively.

If the speed and reliability issues aren’t addressed soon, it’ll become more of a hindrance than a help for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Falak Naz Khan of Contractor Foreman

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Contractor Foreman. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, and we’re very sorry to hear that the platform’s speed issues have been causing frustration for you and your team. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our users.

Performance and reliability are top priorities for us, and we take concerns like yours seriously. While we continuously work on optimizing system speed and responsiveness, we understand that delays in loading projects and navigating between tabs can have a significant impact on productivity.

We also completely understand and share your frustration regarding the slow loading speed, especially with the Project module. While it may seem like we are not actively addressing this, that is far from the truth.

Since November 2024, we have been working on a major server migration to a new, more powerful server environment. This upgrade will bring significant speed improvements, allowing us to execute PHP threads and MySQL queries much faster compared to the EC2 instances and RDS database currently in use.

But we’re not stopping there. As you may have noticed, we have been gradually rolling out UI improvements across the system. While the Project module already has the new UI, it is still running on older PHP code. We are currently in the process of rewriting it from PHP to React, which will provide a major boost in performance by optimizing the way data is fetched.

These two enhancements—server migration and the React rewrite, are expected to eliminate the loading issues that large accounts with high project volumes, like yours, have been experiencing.

What’s Next?

-The server migration is expected to be completed within the next 45-60 days.

-The Project module rewrite will begin in the coming weeks and could be part of the Spring update.

-We are also evaluating whether to release the Project module update as a separate update to speed up improvements.

-Given that your account has more projects than most, our team is reviewing its performance to identify any immediate optimizations.

We’d love the opportunity to work directly with you to troubleshoot and explore interim solutions that might help alleviate some of the performance concerns while these major updates are underway. Our Director of Customer Success will be reaching out to you shortly to gather more details and ensure we’re addressing your concerns as effectively as possible.

We sincerely appreciate your patience and want to earn back your trust by delivering the improvements you deserve. Thank you again for your feedback, and please keep an eye out for our follow-up. If there’s anything urgent in the meantime, feel free to reach out to support@contractorforeman.com.

We truly value you as a customer and appreciate the opportunity to make things right!

What do you like best about Contractor Foreman?

As a relatively new software, changes are constantly being implemented to keep the software at the cutting-edge. It also has a great app, and many of the features are really easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Contractor Foreman?

To save data storage costs, photos are stored at low resolution which can be a real issue when trying to look back for a small details. A specific feature to store and read drawings would also be very useful - at the moment they are just stored as files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Falak Naz Khan of Contractor Foreman

Thank you for taking the time to leave this detailed review and for recognizing both the pace of improvement and the ease of use of the platform. We are glad to hear that Contractor Foreman is helping your team centralize project information and keep everyone working from the most up-to-date data.

Regarding photos, you are correct that images are currently optimized to reduce storage costs and improve speed, especially for field users in low-signal areas. That said, we understand there are cases where higher-resolution images are important for detail review, and this is something that has been discussed internally as part of our long-term media management roadmap.

You also mentioned having a dedicated space for drawings rather than them being stored as files. This is another popular request and one we are actively evaluating. Any structural change in how files are handled must be done carefully so it aligns with existing project financial and document workflows.

We truly appreciate your feedback ,please keep it coming as it helps shape future releases. Thank you again for being a Contractor Foreman user.
