Procore Manufacturing Reviews & Insights

Procore has been a key pillar to simplifying our tasks. Helps us keep teams on schedule, stay within budget, ensure quality and maintain a safe work environment. It is highly customizable at purchase so we can choose the tools we need making it a good fit for any work we allocate it.

Beyond just projects management, Procore includes daily logs to keep teams accountable, work-in-progress reports, to-do lists for creating and tracking action items, scheduling functionality and other collaboration features that help with efficiency and meeting deadlines. However, the reporting features need to be improved to make more effective and user friendly.

It works well to manage submittals, contract documents, specifications, and other forms pertinent to a specific job. It makes sharing these documents with members of different teams, subcontractors, and engineers easy. Since we have many projects going at once, it makes tracking things easier, and we can see who has viewed documents.

It works great for project management and putting all job-specific documents in one place. We are able to share drawings, submittals, and forms with our customers and subcontractors in a safe and reliable platform. However, getting reporting data is somewhat lacking, so if your business needs advanced options, you might try and find a better product.

I work for [...], an electrical tracing company, as a project engineer. I will look at other trade drawings, including architectural, electrical, mechanical, and Civil drawings. Procore is excellent at getting me from drawing to drawing with the embedded automatic links. This saves time very quickly. I also appreciate the submittal processes that are included in the application. The photos are a pretty big thing we use as well, and they are a dependable place to see what is accurately installed into the field.

It is an excellent tool for project management that easily involves offline activities and syncs documents and tasks all in one place. If used on a regular basis, the projects are all managed from one place, which makes streamlining processes even simpler. Most of the time, it requires almost no training for teams to switch to Procore.

Easy implementation and reliable software are hard to come by in project management. It has intuitive file management and supports everything an organization can need. The Procore community is lively, and ideas and solutions are discussed. Updates and improvements only push us to use it more with time.

We sell and install commercial furniture so we use Procore to support Project Management. Procore allows us to keep our punch items well-managed - with one field repository for the communication of issues (via drawings marked up in Procore). This information serves not only the project manager but also the sales team by providing a clean list of exactly what the issues are, what the resolution status of each is, and in whose court the resolution currently lands. This enables us to better ensure that our client's last memory of us is as we leave their site, with all issues resolved, without delay. Our projects vary in size and scope from simple, single-product deliveries to full-building, multi-floor, and multi-phase installs. Using a tablet, our field lead is able to instantly communicate back to the support team to expedite punch resolution. Using drawings loaded on Procore for our customer walkthrough enables us to easily and instantly produce and distribute a punch list as we complete the walkthrough. And, as we progress with the resolution of open items, we can quickly communicate the current status to all team members and the customer. A win for all!

Procore is a surprisingly flexible tool with the ability to adapt to different business sectors within the construction industry. While I am a raving fan, I think with a bit more investment in quickly implementing the improvements suggested by its users, Procore will leave competitors far behind.

Since our company specializes in construction projects abroad all over Europe, Procore allows our project management teams to have a semi-independent construction process. There is no need for extra excel sheets, phone calls from the HQ, or any other type of report to check on the project's health. Procore package together with analytics tool allows us to monitor everything from the background.

Before Procore, our projects would use their templates for issue logs, assigned tasks, or timesheets, but now, everything is in one place, and if a project management team member moves to a different project, he does not need to readjust to their liking. Another excellent point is that we can collect data from all project and use it in multiple ways via Procore Analytics

We are a lighting specialty contractor. We Audit, Design, and Project Manage LED retrofit projects from School Districts, Hospitals, Universities, and Production Facilities. There are constant issues with the current Covid situation as well as material procurement issues that we are running into and trying to overcome. Procore helps with the management of the projects and allows all personnel involved to be informed.

Procore is well suited for big construction programs where there are many moving parts. Unfortunately, it lacks the small business aspect with honing particular tools within Procore to suit the specific company or project underway. An example would be that we use As-Builts for the projects but in Procore, those need to be uploaded as Punch Lists, therefore, taking away the Punch List function for project closeout.

We are an electrical contractor. We use Procore daily to manage our submittal process and to store and manage our drawings. The daily problem that are solved with Procore is going to be the flow of information. Usually, we are sent updates and drawings and we have to manually give those to the foreman. With Procore, updates are automatically put in Procore with no effort on our part.

If you use tablets that are NOT connected to the internet, I would not recommend this. Your on-site people have to connect to the internet to compare versions of drawings and get the updates. The phone app works great! It is so handy to have the photos option. These are available to everyone that has access.

Esticom is used throughout my company to help estimate new project opportunities. By using Esticom to mark up drawings sent to us by clients it helps us save countless hours each week compared to our old method of printing the drawings and using a highlighter. It also becomes extremely useful when designing projects for clients. You are able to upload your drawings and add symbols using Esticom.

Esticom is well suited for anyone in an estimator or project manager type role. It allows the user to quickly and accurately get device counts. This helps ensure the correct equipment is purchased and used. The design capabilities with Esticom is also a great feature and has contributed in me being awarded projects by having a rough design to show my client.

We use it for furniture and electrical plans, punch list tracking and relaying information about a particular job site. Our foremen use it in the field to pass along information and pictures relating to the jobs that they are on.

It can be difficult to use on smaller mobile phones. Using it on an iPad is great.
