"One of the best Takeoff software"

5/5

What do you like best about PlanSwift?

Planswfit is one of the best take-off software on the market. The main thing I like about it is there are tons of added plug-ins that are trade specific, this helps streamline the takeoff process if there is a specific style of take-off a company would normally perform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlanSwift?

Planswift sometimes can sometimes crash or if your computer loses power it will force close the program and sometimes will corrupt the file and the take-offs will be lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5

What do you like best about PlanSwift?

It is an excellent software for quantity estimation and takeoffs . This Software has made my life so easy, and I have said goodbye to the calculator and hand calculation that was so time-consuming, and handling drawings was also not an easy task.

"Great take off program"

5/5

What do you like best about PlanSwift?

Very accurate, fast, and reliable. I have used a lot of programs and I like this by far the best. The best feature I like is the magnification or the crosshair lines to show where you are at on the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PlanSwift?

Nothing to say here I like all the features of Planswift. But if i had to choose I would say the slowness of converting items over to the excel documents. I have had some issues there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
