After spending more time with the product, I was able to better understand how the workflow is supposed to function. Once I adjusted my inputs and expectations, the estimates and outputs were more consistent than my initial experience. It works reasonably well when used the right way.

The biggest challenge was onboarding and setup. It took time to understand how to structure inputs and use the takeoff feature correctly. Once I figured it out, the tool was usable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used to spend 3 hours creating out initial estimates for projects. Because of the wide variety of projects we do, even with templates I've created, it was a tedious process to go through and create each line item, title, description, and cost to provide as much clarity for our customers as I could. Handoff takes care of all of that in seconds. I give it a project scope and any plans and pictures I have, and it creates the entire estimate for me. Then, all I have to do is review it. Sometimes items will be double counted, or things will be included that aren't necessary, but it's an easy fix to just tell the AI what's wrong, and over time it has learned what I'm looking for and made less mistakes.

The downsides of Handoff are few and far between. There have been a few common errors with the estimates, such as duplicate costs or things missing or included that shouldn't be, but it is learning more and more as I go. I also have had to learn how to effectively use the AI. If you aren't very familiar with AI, it can be a bit tricky to figure out the best ways to feed it information.

I like that it learns the more I use it. I’m still working on getting it to estimate things perfectly, but it’s already gotten pretty close. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not sure that I would say that I dislike anything at the moment. It doesn’t get my estimates perfect at the moment, but that’s understandable since it hasn’t had much time to learn exactly how I estimate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to use AI to tweak estimates is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is limited on the types of image files it can process, so it can't use HEIC which is the output format on iPhones. The AI still makes dumb mistakes (which to be fair anyone could), like I have a spec LVP that is floating and almost every time it will price adhesive on the estimates.

The AI tool gets it right about 90% you still have to check it's work and see what it missed, like ledger board for a deck or fascia, but you just tell it to add it and it's done.

The best part is I get my estimates to my customers in about 20 minutes before they have a chance to go with someone else and the finance availability is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They only negative is, I wish it was integrated with Google calendar so that I can keep up to date with my schedule. Have a start date and a stop date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Handoff for both creating estimates and managing projects—and it’s been a fantastic tool all around. The interface is clean and easy to use, which makes quoting jobs quick and professional. On the project management side, it helps me stay organized and keep everything on track from start to finish.

I really appreciate how everything is in one place, making communication and tracking progress much easier. Overall, Handoff has streamlined a lot of my workflow, and I highly recommend it to other contractors or small business owners in the home improvement space. I truly enjoy using it!

One downside I’ve noticed is that when creating estimates, some line items can get duplicated. It’s something I’ve learned to watch for, but it does require extra attention to clean up the estimates before sending them out. I always double-check to ensure everything is accurate so I don’t risk overcharging a client. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s definitely an area where the platform could improve.

Its very helpful when it comes to organizing projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I havent noticed anything that I dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I love about Handoff is the intuitive interface, the significant time that we have saved in the estimating process, and the outstanding support.

The app is easy to use and very well laid out.

I can’t say enough about the time that we have saved by using Handoff. What used to take a couple hours to manually do everything via spreadsheet, validate current pricing, and convert the spreadsheet to a consumable format in Word has been a game changer for our business.

The support I have received from the Handoff team has been exceptional. Extremely responsive and highly communicative! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s still a relatively new app so there are occasional bugs. That being said, this is where the support folks really shine! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Continuous Improvement. I've been using Handoff for a while now, and while it's good, fast, and accurate, it's also constantly being refined. I really appreciate the changes to the layout with the new design, and I trust that they'll keep working to make the experience better and easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm hoping that in the future I'll be able to do more training to the AI model, to more closely resemble my company and resources, but it's hard to truly dislike any features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.
