It is easy to learn with or without previous earthwork program experience. Elevation Pro is constantly improving with feature updates to increase your estimating/takeoff accuracy. Unlike some other earthwork programs, Elevation Pro is built on newer modern looking program base. This should allow it to continue to grow and improve without the need for a complete rewrite in the future. The value for the cost and the customer service cannot be beat\! > > **Cons**: Elevation Pro can have minor bugs and crashes like most programs. These problems are usually adressed quickly though. > > After using another well known program for 7 years and only using Elevation Pro for the last year, I would recommend Elevation Pro hands down\! ----- ### "Great value, great product" — 5.0/5 > **Austin** | *11 February 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is user friendly, the software is robust, however the ease of use makes it less daunting to take off larger more complex sites with ease. Even with concept plans it makes it easy to generate a report and allows me to estimate earlier in the project which in turn makes bidding easier. It also allows me to redesign a site to allow for some value engineering where possible. > > **Cons**: I haven't had any negatives yet. There was a learning curve for me, as I use it from a development standpoint and not as much for hard bids, but it is an invaluable tool in our toolbox for seeing if a site is viable for development. > > It's a great value for the money, and the customer support is unmatched, any questions I have are answered quickly and thoroughly. ----- ### "The Best Program for Estimation at this Point + Some Suggested Features" — 5.0/5 > **Anthony** | *11 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like it's accuracy, ease of use, and wide range of features. But most of all, I'd have to say I appreciate the ability to quickly view (and review) the site you have created using 3D live views, and even to overlay your takeoff to real world views using export to KMZ. > > **Cons**: The price tag might be a little disheartening, but it is worth it for the speed, accuracy and consistency offered by this program. I don't think we could create as many accurate takeoffs or submit as many bids without it. Not really a "con" but I also discuss features in my "overall experience" which I think would help me the most in my takeoff process. > > The InSite team has been incredibly helpful and determined to see us successful using their program. As the sole estimator at my company, it is imperative to have a good estimating software and that I have the resources to use it. InSite has accomplished that. They also seem to be constantly hard at work ensuring further development and new features. I am excited to see an in-program material catalog, but am looking forward with greater eagerness to layered/phased proposed grades and phased subgrades, as well as an intersect tool for subgrades. These would be the biggest help in my personal process. ----- ### "User Experience with Insite Elevation Pro" — 5.0/5 > **Gerry** | *16 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been estimating for decades, going back to digitizer boards and early desktop computers. I've watched the evolution from them to takeoffs on multiple large monitors and lightning fast computers. Elevation Pro has proven to be very fast and efficient at inputting information. On multi-page projects, I can set plan scale and tie plans together in minutes. Being able to pull up multiple plan sheets simultaneously, I can cross reference and input data from multiple sources without having to get out of one to get into the others. While tracing contours, sloping lines, subgrades, etc., vector points pop up ahead of where I've traced, making imputing the data faster and more accurate. > > **Cons**: The vector points are very useful, but they tend to be very jittery, popping in and out. Sometimes when multiple lines are close together, it can be like a wack-a-mole trying to click on them before they disappear again. It can be a little intense, but you get used to it. I would also like to be able to cut out sections of a subgrade, such as islands in a parking lot, without having to keyhole them, or rely on using higher numbered areas to accomplish this. Relying solely on numbered areas requires you to perfectly plan ahead for every contingency before you begin. If something changes or unknowns become apparent, you may have to redo some or all of the data. Fortunately, entering subgrade data is very fast, so it minimizes the hassle. > > Anytime there is an issue or I don't know how to do something, Insite's customer support is readily available and knowledgeable to answer questions. If needed, they can quickly remote into the program to look at it directly, not only telling me what to do but also showing me. Insite also periodically makes updates to take care of any gliches that may come up, and also add new features to improve program features and functions. for example, they recently added a feature to adjust the size of the numbers and letters that are printed on the printout maps, to match the size of the map and make them more readable when printed. Just like any estimating program, you have to learn how to input the information so it's useable when it comes out, but overall I've found this process relatively easy, and the reports very informative and useful. It creates accurate and useful data and maps very quickly and efficiently, and is a good value for the money. ----- ### "Many positives from previous software" — 4.0/5 > **Alex** | *26 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: InSite Elevation Pro has revamped our earthwork takeoff and estimating process. A slight learning curve to start, as expected when transitioning from previous version, but update provides cleaner interface and user experience. Report functions remain the same and integrate seamlessly into our estimating software. > > **Cons**: Toolbar and user interface did take a little longer than anticipated to overcome and familiarize self with. Also, not having the "zoom to" tools could be possible improvement. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/107749/insite-elevation?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/107749/insite-elevation) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
