Currently You can bring in pdf files directly, or import and have planswift convert them into tiffs. Unfortunately both methods are raster based so there is no intelligence for selecting lines, planes etc. The plans are essentially just images, so you can't turn on/off layers in pdfs, you can't import design files directly and there is no 3d capability. While planswift has a "one click" auto takeoff, I have never found it reliable and have always reverted to doing it manually > > I have been a planswift user for many years and find it essential to my work. I only use it for basic takeoff, but know it can be used more extensively for estimating/budgeting etc also It is much better than using takeoff in PDF software, but I'm confident there are better options out there that can utilise native design files and vector pdf, and have AI inbuilt ----- ### "Are you planning for a swift? Then go for it\!" — 4.0/5 > **Sam** | *22 September 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Planswift is simple to use estimating software. It does not require much training to use all the functions of it. > > **Cons**: The takeoff page of Planswift is not linked to the workbook. Hence the quantities in workbook does not update itself. > > I have used PlanSwift three to four years, with different employers. It is Value for money, compared to other estimating softwares. Its performance and speed is also reasonable good. ----- ### "Strong Support and User friendly" — 5.0/5 > **Manuel Alejandro** | *4 April 2026* | Business Supplies & Equipment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how they support all the customers at the current level and offer tools to elevate the business > > **Cons**: No issues with PlanSwift yet, I haven’t had any big troubles or errors while navigating on the platform ----- ### "Estimations made easy\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sam** | *1 May 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: PlanSwift has the best value for cost of any program we've tried previously. The workflow for our company has improved vastly. Also, the takeoff, estimate creation, and overall estimating is so easy to use that it's cut our work time in half. > > **Cons**: In the beginning I had a couple of issues with the workflow processes, but someone from their awesome customer support team walked me through a learning session and It's been great ever since\! ----- ### "Takeoffs and estimating" — 3.0/5 > **Ben** | *6 June 2026* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its easy to go right from construct connect into plan swift to get your takeoffs done. The layout is also very nice > > **Cons**: I think there are alot better options on the market that have the same functions like estimating and takeoffs > > Overall experience was ok. The customer support was not as good as other softwares i have used. But not bad enough to say its a bad product ----- Page: 1 / 17\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/70808/planswift?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/70808/planswift) ## 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 | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
