It is set up to work well and its easy to navigate and use. > > **Cons**: The price for the pro version was a bit much. > > It was a good experience overall. In the end it came down to the price. ----- ### "Build Book vs the others" — 5.0/5 > **Jordan** | *13 July 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Build Book works great and we've already seen it help our business in keeping us on task so that the most important things get done on time and not fall through the cracks. I like Build Book's pricing and ease of use most of all. > > **Cons**: I wish there was employee time tracking and a way for customers to pay through Build Book. That would help a lot in making double entries in both Build Book and Quick Books. I know there will always be some double entry, but this would eliminate over half of it. > > Build Book is helping us to stay organized so everyone has access to the information they need at the time they need it. ----- ### "Bud's Review" — 5.0/5 > **Sylvester** | *10 June 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Buildbook is easy to use for my team in the field, and also for customers. > > **Cons**: I would like to see card displays in all areas. Creating a opportunity to project can be a little smoother. > > Buildbook has been great to use for me and my team. The Buildbook team is very responsive to suggestion and implement suggestions from the field that are great. ----- ### "Great product, works great, easy to navigate- almost too simple." — 5.0/5 > **Jeff** | *28 March 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ease of use for my employees and clients. Very positive feedback from clients, employees and my office manager. They can navigate the program much easier than CoCon/Buildbook. This is huge, I was getting negative feedback from clients about CoCon's complexity. Buildbook is very very simple to navigate and the app works great, very easy to see what we need. > > **Cons**: On the back end, I would love just more customization, options, and abilities to see more information. Seeing job profitability and syncing w/ Quickbooks to see actuals vs. quoted would be helpful. We don't have time or capacity to enter each line item cost so we are missing that information. It just almost seems too simple and not enough complexity on the back end. I want more options w/ quotes and w/ the Gannt chart creation. Having pictures and files transfer from "opportunity" to "projects" would be very very helpful\! Please make this change\! I'm concerned if Buildbook will be able to grow with my business. As I grow my business I want to be sure Buildbook grows with us and brings more functionality to the back end. Don't change the client facing side, just the backend\! > > I met the \[sensitive content hidden\] of Buildbook at IBS and was very impressed with him and with the program he helped create. Overall very positive. Customer service is great and it works\! ----- ### "Fantastic Value" — 5.0/5 > **Kaitlin** | *29 December 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to use if you're new to using construction software and don't want to spend a lot of money on an alternative like Buildertrend. > > **Cons**: It's newer so there are still some features that I'd like to be included like Quickbooks integration. > > Client management has been better with BuildBook, for those who choose to use it. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/99461/buildbook?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/99461/buildbook) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
