Interface is clear and responsive. The formatted Excel document is also very useful. > > **Cons**: I'd like the ability to add symbols and multiply to provide a marked-up drawing. For example drawing linear fittings and placing them on a layout. > > Excellent software and support from Countfire with any issues has been faultless. Countfire are always looking to improve the software too. ----- ### "Countfire, an everyday non negotiable." — 5.0/5 > **Kevin** | *March 5, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use. Saves a huge amount of time on take-offs. Presents the data in a format which is easy to interpret. > > **Cons**: Some larger drawings can affect the functionality of the software and slow down take-offs. This is more a drawing quality issue though. > > Fantastic to use and crucial to turn around estimates quickly. Customer service is fantastic however due to ease of use, there are very rarely any major issues to deal with. ----- ### "Mechanical Take Off Software" — 5.0/5 > **Tyler** | *March 11, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ability to use the system as a mechanical estimator, I always assumed that it was electrically biased. The support team are there around the clock and quickly get back and solve your issues or answer any queries you have. > > **Cons**: I think being able to reduce the size of measurements and take off symbols. It can get quite clustered at the end of the job, despite having the ability to remove layers of the drawings. > > Positive experience, fortunately I work alongside electricians who know the system very well and they have been able to help me get into the swing of things straight away. ----- ### "Countfire Saves Time, But Has a Learning Curve" — 5.0/5 > **Jacek** | *October 20, 2025* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I’ve been using Countfire for a two months now, and it’s completely transformed how I handle electrical estimating. What I like most is the true automated takeoff feature—it allows me to mark up symbols on one drawing and instantly counts them across all drawings. This alone has saved me hours of manual work and significantly reduced errors. > > **Cons**: For highly detailed or non-standard drawings, the automation sometimes struggles to interpret symbols or layouts accurately, requiring manual adjustments. > > Overall, Countfire has made my estimating process faster, more accurate, and far less stressful. It’s a must-have tool for any electrical contractor or estimator looking to modernize their workflow. ----- ### "Countfire review" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *January 19, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: the way it counts across drawings is great, the way you can side by side documents to assess changes in specs etc is brilliant, and how you can override drawings with new stages. > > **Cons**: the only real problems i have with it is normally if the drawing is bad i.e it has images on it and not done correctly at the designer end. > > my overall experience is very good, countfire its self is great it is just very dependant on the level of the drawing fed in to it. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/144811/countfire?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/144811/countfire) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
