Contractor Foreman

Pros: Customer Support: The support team was consistently responsive and helpful, addressing my queries promptly and providing clear solutions. Their knowledge of the software was impressive, and they went the extra mile to ensure my issues were resolved efficiently. Ease of Use: Contractor Foreman boasts an intuitive interface, making it incredibly easy to navigate and use. The software's design is user-friendly, allowing even those with limited technical skills to quickly become proficient. The streamlined workflows and clear labeling further enhance ease of use. Estimate Creation: The estimate creation feature is a game-changer. It allows for quick, accurate, and detailed estimates, saving valuable time and reducing errors. The customizable templates and clear presentation options make it easy to create professional-looking estimates for clients.

Cons: While Contractor Foreman shows promise as a comprehensive solution, its recent launch means that it's not yet free of glitches. I've encountered some bugs and occasional inconsistencies during my use, which, while not deal-breakers, do require some patience and workaround solutions. These issues are likely to be addressed with future updates.

Pros: Fully functional with more tools than we use. Continues to improve and educate on the improvement. It is an awesome PM, Accounting, and Estimator communicator

Cons: Changing habits of how we have been entering and doing things because we have to learn and sometimes changebour thought process or pattern to meet the function change.

Pros: What I liked most about Contractor Foreman is that it gives our company a lot of tools in one place. It helps with project management, estimate creation, construction tracking, and organizing information so our team can stay on the same page. I also like that customer service has been helpful when we need support, and the system has strong features for contractors who want an all-in-one platform.

Cons: What I liked least about Contractor Foreman is that the learning curve can feel pretty deep, especially when first setting it up and trying to understand all of the features. Because the platform does a lot, it can take time to train team members and build efficient workflows. At first, some parts can feel a little overwhelming until you spend enough time using it regularly.

Pros: - Value for the money - Ease of use - Project management - Customer support Ability to get help relatively quick when there's an issue and contractor Foreman continually improving the product

Cons: I can't say there is one specific thing that I dislike, except maybe being able to get documentation from it into other programs that would make a little more clean presentation for our client.

Pros: $90

Cons: What I dislike about Contractor Foreman is that it can feel overwhelming at times, especially for new users. There are so many features and tools packed into the platform that it takes a while to learn where everything is and how to use it efficiently.

Pros: What I liked most about Contractor Foreman was how it kept everything organized in one place and made project management much easier.

Cons: What I liked least about Contractor Foreman was that it can feel a bit clunky and take more clicks than I’d like for some tasks.

Pros: All-in-one system for construction management •Good estimating and job tracking tools •Integrates with QuickBooks •Helps keep the team organized

Cons: Takes some time to fully learn •Mobile experience could be a little cleaner. Needs some work with schedule.

Pros: We are a mid-sized contractor and we use Contractor Foreman to track project spending and ensure our jobs stay on budget. It syncs seamlessly with QuickBooks and has a user-friendly interface. I have also made use of their handy webchat for miscellaneous questions. There is also an option to run reports which our project managers find extremely useful. This is only a few of the options we use, but as we expand I'm sure more and more of the tools will be utilized. Great product!

Cons: A few minor issues: - When entering multiple line items on an invoice, sometimes a line or two will disappear and require re-entry. - When adding an attachment, it usually appears as if you've added two attachments even when only one was added. - One of the tax options prevents CF from syncing with QB.

Pros: Contractor Foreman continues to improve with thoughtful updates, and their support team is always knowledgeable, responsive, and willing to walk you through anything new.

Cons: One drawback is that the employee’s name isn’t shown on the daily log. While there is a picture of the employee, depending on which screen you’re viewing, it’s not always clear who the worker is. This can make it harder to quickly identify who completed each log.

Pros: Bidding projects is extremely easy on this platform. We love that all of our estimate notes including: pricing, photos, product quotes, etc. are all kept in one location. Converting estimates to projects with SOV’s is simple as well. The support team is available readily without long wait times and are quick to assist with whatever we may need.

Cons: I would like a feature added to the “daily logs” section where you can search within your daily logs and separate them by logs that have materials and logs that don’t. There aren’t any other cons that we have, the support and overall product is excellent.

Pros: I like that it is cost effective and full of features. I also appreciate the amount of time that went into providing resources for learning and training on the system. Every feature has a training module which makes it even easier to use.

Cons: With my experience in the software so far, I really dont have much negative feedback. There are lots of customizable options, including branding any templates that you choose to use. The only thing I wish I could do, was have the system send and email (invoice or estimate or whatever) and the email shows that its coming from me instead of contractor foreman. If I forget to tell the client, they dont recognize the email address and they dont open it.

Pros: Contractor Foreman is very user friendly and provides a wide range of tools that help keep projects organized in one place. The platform makes it easy to track safety documentation, daily logs, photos, and project updates. It has helped improve communication between office staff and field crews, and the customizable features allow us to tailor forms and reports to fit our company’s needs. The price point is also very reasonable compared to similar construction management software.

Cons: Some features can take time to learn when first getting started, especially when customizing forms or workflows. There are occasional minor glitches, and certain reports could have more formatting flexibility. While the system is very capable, it can feel overwhelming at first because of the number of available tools.

Pros: Simple platform and very user friendly, has most all areas that company would need for running their business.

Cons: They need to spend more time getting areas streamlined and less time on adding more widgets Creating your own forms should be better as well, they look fairly unprofessional

Pros: CF has been great all around for us. Our guys in the field use it daily. We love how easy it is to use and the data you can track is a game changer. They are very quick to help through the live chat.

Cons: None really.. I think this program is very easy to use has the new updates that are coming are exciting.

Pros: The timecard tracking works really well. The Geolocation tracking is a huge plus especially since we have multiple job locations.

Cons: The customizability of the PDF templates. There are a few things I would like to change like being able to change the title of the change order numbers for the customer. As well as the ability to input more than two decimal points on numbers.

Pros: If you couldn't figure it out then they had a lot of resources to help you out. We had a lot of employees that were using.

Cons: It wasn't as user friendly as some of the other programs. It took a little bit to get it figured out.

Pros: It's easy to use and fully customizable. All my projects are organized, and I can see at a glance what we are spending on each of them.

Cons: The integration is a bit confusing, but their team really helped us get through it as best as they could.

Pros: Contractor Foreman is a great organizational tool for project management and CRM. It is very easy to use and you get great value for the price.

Cons: Software is very simple design wise, but there are really no complains in terms of that. Occasionally there are bugs but it does not happen consistently. Also, since we still do residential, we would like to be able to add more that one appointment to a residential service ticket, specifically when we are needing to go back to complete the work.

Pros: Its fairly simple to navigate and find whatever youre looking for. The trainings are also very helpful. Coming in as an office manager brand new I had no understanding of any back end stuff. Foreman made it easy to figure out.

Cons: They dont sync up with the Payroll company that we use. Just makes an extra step on my end in adding numbers for the employees.

Pros: We like that everything we need for a project is contained in one place. Our time tracking has greatly improved since implementing contractor foreman.

Cons: We found that cost tracking could be improved. Differentiating between change orders and original scope could be improved.

Pros: It's very good to streamline Projects, from estimating to punch list. It's good for time tracking and expenses tracking. AIA Billing need some work but it's awesome they have this.

Cons: They have to work on be able to ease up the process of Over the Counter Sales. They have separated Leads, Estimates and possible sales, I honestly not find it useful for so many tabs. Their credit cards and debit cards fees are a little higher than everyone else.

Pros: Good value for the money spent. User friendly and has good functionality. Helps us streamline project management well.

Cons: The approval process. It would be nice if we could assign who things would be sent to for approval.

Pros: The platform is very useful for managing projects, and the support team is extremely helpful and resourceful. Their quick responses and guidance make the experience smooth and reliable.

Cons: Some features take a little time to learn, especially when navigating between modules. However, once you get used to the layout, it becomes much easier.
