    Trimble
    We are long-term users of the B2W system. We believe it is the best choice for paving contractors. It is easy to learn and continues to offer even deeper ability as estimating prowess grows. The system allows us to update quotes that were given in the past and to stay on top of our costs as changes occur, so our data is up to date and accurate. Know your costs and you can make money!

    • Allows monthly changes in fuel prices and liquid asphalt to quickly update the system for all.

    Cons
    Trimble
    • We request changes to the software as issues crop up and the B2W process changes as needed.
    • A time-out function should be added to knock dormant users offline and allow other users access to the limited number of licenses the company owns.
