Reviews of ConstructionOnline
Alternatives Considered:
Hands Down Winner
Pros:
ConstructionOnline's format and function are intuitive which helps me find what I need when I need it. It's easy to understand, but full of smart features that will help us to be excellent in our trade. Having a quality customer service experience, consistently, is also a huge reason I can trust that ConstructionOnline wants us to be successful together.
Cons:
I wish I had more time to get familiar with all of the features available but the 10 day trial period is still enough to see that this is the system for us. If CompanyCam could be integrated with it in future, that would be great, but not a deal-breaker by any means.
Alternatives Considered:
Can't do business without it.
Comments: I love this software setup. As I expand my office again, I look forward to using some of the advanced features to help streamline our approach to building.
Pros:
I really love the accessibility of all your documentation for each project. Whether it's an estimate for the bank, contracts for the homeowner, or bids from sub-contractors, it's all right there.
Cons:
I purchased Construction Suite in the past. I had gotten out of the game for a little bit pursuing some other projects. Now that I am building again, I wish there had been a little more loyalty for past customers now that it has gone to Construction online. The features are still the best that I have seen.
active user of scheduling tool and resource
Pros:
I like how we can display the projects on the Multi-Project Scheduling and Resource Tracking page. It allows us to easily see the workload and project progress.
Cons:
I don't like the way the scheduling page works and we can't easily integrate it with MS Project. Updating the schedules can sometimes turn into a nightmare. Additionally, the way we input projects is not user-friendly in most cases, in my opinion.
Alternatives Considered:
COL Review
Comments: The product is best in class and the customer support is always spot on. I never have long waits for answers and the ability to quickly reach an expert is very appreciated.
Pros:
COL is a solid software all around. Very few softwares have the built in functionality in COL. If I was going to design proprietary software for my company, it would look and function very much like COL.
Cons:
My only two complaints are the lack of more accounting integrations and the cap on projects. Having a few more options for third party integrations where COL doesn't have internal functionality would be a benefit.
Joel Phifer
Comments: It seems like a very comparable system to other construction management softwares out there for a lower price point.
Pros:
Over all the system is easy to use and seems to have many features that other more expensive softwares have.
Cons:
I believe this may be an add on feature but I feel like the PO/billing side is lacking. I would like to be able to track every expense per subcontractor/vendor in the system.
