Great Project Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
All the features that project managers need are in the software. From watching, editing and maintaining budgets to getting all the docs in an organized locations for the PM and the field installers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve for the field employees was probably the hardest part. Having that been said it only took a few weeks or a month for them to accustomed to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization. Also, the field doesn't rely on the PM to get get them everything they need since their folders on the iPad are updated almost daily.
Great tool to keep the construction project organized
What do you like best about the product?
Great tool to coordinate, manage drawings & other info. With iPads and Procore's online drawings markup/inquiry tools, we saved a lot of time and paper and probably avoided a lot of mistakes and change orders.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the system is slow -- maybe too many users. Drawings don't always get processed properly as seen in the demos
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have much better info sharing and coordination. RFIs and Submittals are much better managed because they are very automatic. We don't e-mail drawings and docs back and forth anymore
Recommendations to others considering the product:
more flexibility -- multiple schedules,etc.
beneficial
What do you like best about the product?
the photo's and time tracking. Super valuable taking pictures to document work done. Especially when another contractors work goes over it.
What do you dislike about the product?
the procore to procore readability is terrible. My guys on the field can't communicate with me directly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest benefit has clearly been in tracking our work through pictures and documentation. It has saved us thousands.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In construction it seems more geared to general contractor then subs but still useful.
Procore's selling points
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use for people in the office and in the field. Easy way to keep up and track submittals, RFIs etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that the training videos are not up to date with the Procore interface. Makes training of subcontractors and supervisors very difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Submittal entry, approval and follow up. Keeping subcontractors up to date with drawings and specifications
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best project management software out there. Easy to learn.
Great program but lacking in some areas
What do you like best about the product?
- Mobile Friendly - It allows access out in the field for some components
- Organized structure - Allows for an organized flow of paperwork and tracking.
- Procurement tracking of subcontractors and PO's - Allows easy tracking to verify a sub is not overbilling
- Tracking of RFI's and as-builts - Seamless tracking with architects and designers

What do you dislike about the product?
- Lack of a cost plus option - No cost plus contract or billable option with cost plus clients.
- Lack of keeping track of cost vs billable hours - No option to keep track of what an employee actually cost you vs a billable rate.
- Easy of access to directory when adding PO's and Subcontracts - If the subcontractor is not already in the directory you have to back out and add them. Just more mouse clicks that reduce productivity
- Not customizable - Most forms and exported information comes in their format only. You have to pay additional money to have a forms customized, etc.
- Nickle and dime. I felt like too many items are an added cost. Certain modules, custom forms, etc all come at an added cost which doesnt leave you walking away with a great feeling.
- never had a chance to try out the estimating module - Just another added cost.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Procore allows for a mobile friend, cloud based software program that keeps all of the company documents organized and in one place. It really allows you to be more organized and focus on what you need to focus on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would review what specifically your company requires on a day to day aspect and review other programs. Corecon was a great program but wasn't as easy or intuitive to use as Procore - more of an expert level to use day in and day out.
Great but doesn't cover all needs
What do you like best about the product?
The budgeting tool is great. It allows for financial visibility when linked to Quickbooks. When used correctly, the budget tool really does give a level of insight that many programs do not. It just needs to be in the app too.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't perform well enough for federal construction requirements - where the paperwork is different, rendering a lot of the PDFs useless. Also daily reports aren't interactive, meaning, when they are emailed out, they are not interactive. Pictures need to be downloaded, so people don't actually then see them! Who wants to go through the extra step of downloading images when you get 15+ daily reports as the Executive team does? They need to follow the model of Basecamp's messages with their daily reports where they are a much more collaborative tool than they are now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have more financial visibility into projects because of the budgets. While they require more visibility, and clarity, they are a step in the right direction. The budgets would be great on the app as well, at least a summary of them. The app does not provide any financial visibility, which makes it useless for Project Management in the field. PM and Executive teams need to have access to financial data at all times, even (especially) in the field.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to spend time in the implementation. It is extensive and takes a lot of in depth knowledge. Also, please know that once implemented, they promise a quarterly account review that never occurs.
Procore General Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability of having everything online. The process for RFIs/Submittal is smooth. Really like the central location for all documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how the page refreshes and takes you back to top of page after opening and saving meeting minutes. It's annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The organizational part of Procore is very useful. Its very user friendly and easy for anyone to navigate. It's really been a time saver, as anyone (sub, owner, design team, contractor) can easily "search" for a desired request.

Good Products
What do you like best about the product?
Submittals and RFI plat for is very easy to use and keep items in order
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like how the RFI and Submittals only allow one to choose a business or company already in project directory to send or distribute information to. I with there was a space to add in a email address easily without going back to the job directory to add in the person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping order and Logging All aspecs with construction.

Get everyone on board using the product and get the employees tools to use it and it makes life easy!
