    This is great if only used for job costing.

    Pros
    eSUB Construction Software
    • It is built with subcontractors in mind. There are many PM software available but this one aims at the commercial subcontractor.
    • It does a great job covering the basics of typical commercial work. There are areas that allow you to customize such as adding reservations of rights to documents.
    • It can integrate with Microsoft quite a bit, we use this in our work every day and being able to export or sync data/calendars has been helpful.

    Cons
    eSUB Construction Software
    • I have no suggestions at the moment and if I ever do have a question, concern or suggestion, a quick email to eSUB gets a quick response.

    • Syncing with QuickBooks could be a little better, only syncs to main customer and not projects.
    • Does not have the ability to be used in the field.
    • Cannot collect payment or invoice from the field, only office staff can do this which makes for a lot of missed money collection.

    Support Rating
    eSUB Construction Software
    It has been helpful whenever I've called. They have been able to walk me through solutions and even direct me to the right answer. There was only 1hr difference between time zones so this was manageable. If we experienced bugs, their IT department was helpful at remedying and they were always rolling out updates.

    Knowify does job costing which HouseCall Pro does not, it syncs with QuickBooks a little better than HouseCall Pro but does not allow our technicians to invoice from the field which is crucial.

    Return on Investment
    eSUB Construction Software
    • eSUB saves time as you don't have to type, print and send documents.
    • I like to call it "set it up once, use it a million times" as once you set up a customer, vendor etc... you can use them across multiple platforms.
    • It saves money as you don't need a pool of resources to manage a project due to its ease of use.

    • Keeps good track of all bills and expenses.
    • It would be nice to be able to see a list of all bills and not have to look under each project/job.
    • Allows us to see if a job is headed south and quickly correct it.
