ContractorTools

You guys are thieves after purchasing a full version of the estimator about 6 months back and investing in buying custom cost books, for home improvement, now you updated the app and deleted everything I have so unless I subscribe for monthly fee I can no longer access the very expensive custom cost book I purchased via your useless app. I will chase you legally rest assured I will. To all others, beware of this trap.

It is very convenient in all aspects.

Contractor Tools is a great software for building contractors, remodelers, etc.. It is extremely easy to use and very intuitive. Tons of easy to watch tutorial videos and fantastic customer service. Synchs easily with Quick Books. Our clients like the ease of use as well which makes projects go as smooth as possible. Highly recommended.

This program is very easy to use. It makes putting together estimates a breeze. Also they turn out looking SO much nicer and more professional than just a typed up QB estimate or invoice. It makes it very clear and easy to understand for the customer as well. It really helps stream line a lot of things. I couldn’t imagine running my G.C. company without this program. Anything i could think of to make it better, they already had, i just had not discovered the feature yet (i am very computer illiterate fyi). The Customer Service is unmatched in todays world. Anytime i have needed help, i can call text, email or message through the program. As long as its a reasonable hr someone from the company will reach out within 5min typically. And its a real live person that is invested in the company and gives a dang! I personally deal with Patrick and every experience is positive! I’d like to add it is on the cheaper side for comparable programs that you pay for. I would like to add this is not a sponsored review.

The details of the estimating as well as the invoicing is excellent. There are a few things holding me back from a 5 star rating. The top tier is the only really functional level for a busy contractor. Con’s: No basic company financial reports. Such as how many projects were completed in a given time period or fiscal year. No telling how fiscal value of projects for a given year. Everything is all bundled together in an overview of arbitrary categories, LEADS, CONTRACTS SIGNED, WORKED STARTED. etc. This is almost useless Estimating could be easier if their was a way to copy and paste entire sections, or at least asking where the items should be duplicated to instead of duplicating line items and then having to move them to a new section. There is only one online payment processor available to have customer make payments. STRIPE. If you use other payment processors there is no way to interstate that into your estimates or invoice. You can only get realtime product pricing from one store. Homedepot. Document template appearance is limited to single color choice and the choice of what items are displayed on invoice. You cannot change the overall look or feel of the documents. No ability to add photos to invoice so that there is a record of what was done. No way to generate a statement history for clients. Pros: Professional look for documents. Cost book integrations. Customer portal Ability to sign documents in app Job reports

As a remodeling company I use this on a daily basis. I have the pro subscription because I need to be able to make change orders and invoices. The craftsman cost books work out great because I’ve used them for years. The pro subscription could be a little pricey for some contractors small contractors like myself. For me it’s worth it for the convenience it affords me to work on the go since I’m very hands on with installations and repairs. The changes I would make would be that the cost Books could have the quarterly updates. I would pay extra for that especially in a time when a 2 x 4 can go from three dollars to seven dollars very quickly. Secondly for $60 a month the program shuts off if I try to bounce between apps for too long. I was told that’s an issue with Apple but I haven’t had that problem with other apps. All things considered very happy very useful!

It does everything I need it to and more. I really enjoy using your Contractor Tools. It’s very professional and easy to use. Thank you all. Cliff Odom/Eagle’s Nest Enterprises

Please, please, please add stage manager support to the app. I keep all of my hours logged in the calendar app and it would be nice to tap back and forth between the two apps while logging in bills. Thanks!

Software package works well for my business. I only use a fraction of the products offered but it still saves me a great deal of time during the quoting stage of my selling process.
