Handoff Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate Handoff's user-friendly and intuitive interface, which made setup easy without needing advanced IT skills. The AI functionality is impressive, providing quick estimates by analyzing attached plans, reducing the time significantly from hours to minutes. The array of format options for commercial bids and the proactive support have been incredibly beneficial. Overall, its capability to streamline construction estimate processes saves valuable time and resources, which I find very efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think having more vendors beyond major retail supply stores like Home Depot or Lowe's could be helpful for providing more customized work options. I'm hoping Handoff will provide more services, features, and improvements overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I really appreciate is that it keeps improving, which makes my job easier and faster thanks to the number of helpful features. Creating estimates is so much more efficient now—with just a small amount of input, the AI fills in both the big and small details. And since I’m not especially tech-savvy, the fact that it’s so easy to use is a huge advantage for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside I’ve noticed with the recent updates is that I can’t combine files. In the past, change orders weren’t included in the same file, so I always had to create a separate bid. Now, it’s definitely an improvement—the new setup works much better overall. I just really wish there was a way to merge multiple bids that belong to the same project or category into one file. But moving forward it works great, an improvement for sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not sure it's a dislike per se, but as with all new tools or systems it does require commitment of time and energy to make the tool work for your business. The combination of AI narrative and file translation, the input of general instructions, and specific business-specific metrics is only as powerful as the time taken by your team to interface with the tool.

The amount of time savings is transformational. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system is updating, yes.. but I would like to tailor the initial payment or payment schedule for the customer as soon as the proposal is approved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Handoff allows me to upload photos and it will analyze to create an estimate based on how I defined it to put together bids for my clients. It even finds line items that I forget often! It has paid for itself monthly by bringing more money into my business. AI learns my preferences and the more I use it, the more it becomes more like my personal assistant.

Invoicing. It can be complicated how it invoices and you have to create invoices and names for the invoices to match the estimates. Feels like this is where I'm not saving time. I'm sure they will continue to improve this area but definitely not user friendly compared to my last invoice program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Handoff very beneficial for solving problems related to estimates in construction and design. Its ability to provide relatively accurate and timely estimates for jobs makes it extremely useful. The promptness with which it delivers these estimates is a key feature that I appreciate a lot. This efficiency in job estimation is noteworthy and is one of the main reasons I would consider continuing to use the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it frustrating that Handoff does not allow more than three users for a job. This limitation significantly restricts its usability for larger teams or projects where more collaboration may be necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The amount of time it saves, it still takes a small amount of time to review and catch any glitches or wrong prices but saves us 85 percent of time prior to using Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only few glitches I've noticed I've made aware to the team. Only thing I don't like is it calculates the bid in man hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Saves a lot of time and effort by giving the estimates I need to win work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I still need to review and refine the estimates before I send them out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What is most helpful with Handoff is the ability to provide a construction, remodel, home repair bid or quotes for jobs in minutes instead of days! And that I am able to provide this from the downloaded app on my phone or from my laptop. The convenience of having both is amazing. I personally use the app on my phone more since I'm able to enter the information needed while still on the job site. Another feature that makes Handoff great is that if I need to make changes to material or labor, all I have to do is type out the changes in the "Use Handoff AI" bar and the AI makes the necessary changes for me and updates the materials cost and manhours needed. While I am just using the Handoff Cost Estimator, I am seriously considering upgrading to the Handoff Business Subscription so that I can have access to change orders, invoices, and other premium features.

I have not found anything that I dislike about Handoff. After the 7-day free trial period, I thought that the price for using Handoff was outrageous and not affordable. That quickly changed on the very next bid that I attempted to start without it. With the time that it saves, the cost of Handoff easily covers the manhours that I would spend to complete bids "the old-fashioned way". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was very easy to get started and the free trial proved that it would do what I needed. I needed a program that would list in detail the components required to build out a specific detail. Such as how many 2 x 4"s needed to build a 10 ft by 12 ft deck. It does a great job of listing everything. When I have questions the chat bot is mostly helpful.

It has limited organizational capabilities for Projects with multiple estimates. Hard to find estimates with-in a project, or sort the estimates with-in a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
