I like when I can use any available device to fill in my info > > **Cons**: Access was not proper. I think admin didn't provide me proper access to evaluate > > Better than carrying papers with you on site ----- ### "Need more work" — 4.0/5 > **Eesan** | *13 May 2021* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Pretty good and helpful but need to be improved in layout and features such as simplify copying repetitive items , getting summary , search features , field test page is need to improved a lot , add more pull down menu for similar items then it will help to shorten time consuming with report > > **Cons**: Mobile application must be improved a lot , Layout is not attractive , crashing many times , Not versatile > > Good ----- ### "A great concept but not a finished product." — 2.0/5 > **Laurence** | *28 August 2018* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: I honestly believe the idea behind this software has the potential to change the way the industry operates and any company not using something similar will be seen as being behind the times. Builterra is on to a really good idea by putting CA tasks online and increasing automation and smart interactions between tasks. > > **Cons**: The most frustrating part of using Builterra is experiencing it fall short of it's clear potential. From uploading/inputting data to downloading reports, every step was slow, buggy, and difficult to navigate. This translated into additional costs that had not been budgeted for and additional time that I did not have to spare. At no point did the time and effort savings of the software materialize. I suspect that each company signing up with Builterra will require a fair amount of work to customize the reports and functionality to that company. This is worth either putting under user control or taking the time to set up the software to turn out a product that matches the company's existing output. Much of the value of the product results from mobile use, sadly the mobile experience falls far short of even the desktop experience. > > The best word would be 'frustrating'. Downloading a report in PDF form sums up the experience: having to wait several minutes for a 1pg pdf form is inconvenient - being told that it's because you are number 1 in line is just a bizarre user experience - finding out that using a different method to download that same 1pg pdf report gives a significantly different looking document is very frustrating. Customer service was timely and patient, but not always helpful. Many of the things we needed help with would turn out to be large problems and it did not seem that there was any interest in undertaking the necessary work. ----- ### "A great way to get away from the field book" — 5.0/5 > **James** | *25 May 2021* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Builterra allows us to track construction project and document design information in the field in a manner that minimizes our office time necessary to compile the data into a useful form. > > **Cons**: There are some minor glitches with not being able to easily assign a new project from the field which we need for design uses, but it is easily resolved in the office. > > Our experience has been very positive, but we feel we will find the greatest benefits during the project closure phase where we will be able to go back and look at specific issues rather than having the wade through site reports and untagged photos. ----- ### "Best platform for contract management" — 5.0/5 > **Vaibhav** | *13 May 2021* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The easy way to write and submit the inspection report, payment certificates, estimate and most of the contract administration work are breeze to do > > **Cons**: Absolutely nothing that I don't like about the product. Though there can be some improvement in testing side before the product rolls out to avoid any miscalculation in projects ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/177083/builterra-platform?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/177083/builterra-platform) ## 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
