## Reviews

### "I  love this software" — 5.0/5

> **Christopher** | *19 July 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have found this program very easy to implement and use and easy to train subordinates to understand and use. This program I feel has given us an edge in the bidding process and has kept costs in check in the completion of ongoing projects.
> 
> **Cons**: It's going to be easy for our competitors to acquire and implement.

> This software was extremely easy to setup. I have been using another "well known" Estimating Software but SmarteBuild has pleasantly surprised me. The couple of times I contacted their "Customer Support" I was quickly assisted and its always a pleasure to deal with them.
