## Reviews

### "Right in the middle" — 5.0/5

> **Jurica** | *7 April 2016*
> 
> Primus has deep and smart background, very nice interface, and plenty of possibilities.
For me and my needs searching is over...

### "ottimo software per la gestione di stime e computi metrici su progetti" — 5.0/5

> **Roberto** | *22 September 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Si tratta di un ottimo software per il computo metrico estimativo, l'analisi dei prezzi, la cronoprogramma lavori. Inoltre può supportare anche la direzione lavori nelle varie fasi dell'attività, dalla progettazione all'esecuzione.
> 
> **Cons**: Il software ha presentato alcuni errori in fase di installazione e nei primi utilizzi. Il servizio di assistenza ha contribuito però a risolverli con efficacia.
> 
> Riduzione dei tempi per la realizzazione di stime e preventivi, con possibilità di lavorare contemporaneamente su più progetti.

### "software per computi metrici di facile utilizzo e buone prestazioni" — 4.0/5

> **Cosimo** | *13 October 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Il software viene utilizzato dall'Ufficio Tecnico per l'elaborazione dei computi metrici, analisi prezzi, e per la definizione del GANT dei lavori. Viene inoltre usato dalla DL nelle varie fasi dell'attività, dalla progettazione all'esecuzione, fino al monitoraggio dei costi dei materiale e complessivamente del progetto.
> 
> **Cons**: Il software ha avuto qualche blocco nei primi utilizzi, risolti grazie al servizio di assistenza. Il rapporto qualità prezzo del prodotto resta comunque elevato.

### "Buon strumento Acca ma si può fare di meglio" — 3.0/5

> **Grazia** | *3 July 2023* | Renewables & Environment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: è un applicativo integrato con gli altri software acca, dunque può sempre essere utile averlo se si usano altri software della stessa casa di produzione. Regge bene anche file molto pesanti come computi metrici per ristrutturazioni di condomini, ed è possibile separare i conti fatti per ciascuna delle parti private da quelli delle parti comuni. Fa il suo lavoro di formattare il computo metrico e permettere di esportarlo in pdf.
> 
> **Cons**: L'apprendimento non è intuitivo. In generale non mi sono trovata benissimo perchè è un po' macchinoso. Speravo che fosse meglio integrato con gli altri software acca così da riconoscere alcuni elementi presenti nel progetto in modo automatico, invece va inserito tutto a mano, con lo svantaggio che l'inserimento è lungo e faticoso rispetto ad altri software in commercio.
