InEight vs. TeamGantt

Compared to other Estimating software I have used, InEight has superior capabilities and features. The ability to use a line item or an assembly to create an estimate is an outstanding feature of the program. The ability to create crew rates and use them in the estimate is a handy feature, especially when estimating construction projects.

I can undoubtedly make new assignments and plot timetables by clicking and hauling. In case you're as of now utilizing an item like Teamwork or BaseCamp, the achievement schedule is extraordinary for an everyday view - however for complex ventures, I was having a difficult time seeing the higher perspective in any detail. TeamGantt permits me to impart my diagrams to different clients without the requirement for login.

• Tracking labor and equipment hours to specific estimated scope line items
• Creating detailed work breakdown structures within Estimate and using that same structure to apply cost to during the job
• Creating custom data blocks in control to track progress and create forecasts

• Visual representations - Appeals to both visual learners and non.
• Permissions and assigning tasks - Only hands in the pots are the ones you want!

• We do not use the search engine since it was last modified. It is no longer user friendly.
• We used to like the way we could change the position of line items. The function has been changed to where it is not user friendly anymore.
• The "Save" and "Delete" options are right next to each other. I have been after Ineight to change these for a long time but they have not.

• I wish TeamGantt had the ability to easily track different iterations of the Gantt chart over time. For example, a lot of our project plans need to be updated due to delays as we progress. Currently, if you want to compare past versions of the Gantt chart for a particular project, you either have to create multiple Gantt charts for the same project within the app or export each one as a PDF and store them somewhere so that you can go back when needed.
• I wish TeamGantt integrated with more third-party apps. For example, we use Clickup for task management and it'd be nice if we could integrate the two.
• The sharing function is not ideal. Whenever we need to share a Gantt chart with a client, we have to export it as a pdf and email it to them.

Some features with InEight's TeamBinder are worthy of single use, however the review feature and subsequent revision and version numbering could be improved. We will be aiming to roll out the package to encompass our internal documentation in the near future and will be in a better position to judge the usability after that point in time.

I would give it an 8 out of 10 because the software can be a bit cumbersome to new users. It also takes a long time to set up the library and input all of your companies needs so that the software will provide the level of service required to estimate projects. However, once the software is set up it is a powerful tool. We only use a portion of what the software is capable of delivering

Every time I have contacted support, they have gotten back to [me] quickly and with a few solutions. I like that they seem to be US-based, so there is no language barrier when I try to communicate my problem. For the few times, they did not have a solution ready, they told me they would respond later after further research, and they actually followed up! Better than most support I have used in the past with other software.

Incentivized

I only had to use support once, because the tool is very intuitive. The support I received was prompt and to-the-point, and they were able to provide the solution in a clearly-defined manner. As I remember, I had the answer within an hour or two, with clear reasons and instructions.

Since the original inception, I have been required to overhaul the system so that it is more user friendly and combines both aspects of our business, documentation and drawings. Being able to control revision and version numbering has been a key struggle that only staff training has been able to mark this as complete.

I've used SAP for more than 10 years before my current job in this company. The best thing in SAP, is exactly what I have commented before, it's a single one tool, that does all what InEight do. Here at CCC, we have COINS for cost management, and I don't know exactly if InEight would be able to do whatever that COINS does, but what I'm trying to say is that, for systems, as much less external communication, better. InEight is covering a great portion on planning, we will see schedule and estimate, it will definitely improve, so, waiting on that to see.

I use Basecamp with our Marketing Firm because that is what they already had in place. It is also a good tool. I enjoy, however the task oriented project environment of TeamGantt for organizing and planning my newsletter. I like the GanttChart view a lot.

InEight is a good system that has scaled nicely as the company has grown. the tools are still readily available and applicable for our larger scope of work. It has kept up with the growth of the company very nicely

• We have gone from an $6.5M per year company to over $10M per year since integrating InEight in 2018

• Being able to compare different estimates has sped up the estimation process and allowed us to be more competitive.

• TeamGantt is the best web-based Gantt chart solution I have found.
