BuildTools is one app for construction management

I like that it's easy to use because you only need basic knowledge about how this program works in order understand what needs doing next with your own house plans/drawings etc., It also has some good features such as being able to add multiple contractors which makes things easier when adding new people onto jobsites at short notice without having too many different apps open up (which would be confusing). However there are still problems where if something goes wrong then sometimes they…

Pros
  • Its relatively simple, intuitive for most users; quick updates from customers after feedbacks given directly through support team e mail address ; ability store drawings easily online using cloud storage.etc...so overall pretty useful tool..but can improve alot..i hope!!!
Cons
  • I will keep silent

Great for tracking work order progress and expenses

I love that it's connected to our general ledger so we have access anytime there are changes in cost codes/accounts etc.It doesn't allow you to do things like change jobsite layouts, which would be great! We're looking at this as an alternative when BIM isn't offered by our architect but has been requested instead by clients who don't want a 2nd party involved (architect). It does what we need without any additional costs associated with other third parties such as design services etc - saves…

Pros
  • Great integration between Revit / AutoCAD
  • Easy layout creation for MEP systems& piping networks easy import from drawings into model via 3D CAD data or imported structures
  • Integration wth SAP ERPs
