e-Builder Enterprise Reviews

According to my usage, it's among one of the very well-organized software for construction project management. This software covers all the bases from documentation to project closeout as needed for a construction project.

Nothing to dislike from my end for this software except for the fact that it sometimes lags while switching between different tabs for project forms.

I am solving a preeminent problem of documentation which is considered secondary in a construction project. I use it for filling out my Hot Work Permits, Daily Construction Checklist, Closeouts, Submittals, RFI's, Change Orders.

Ebuilder provides a digital record of a project in a helpful way.

It can be confusing for new users and is complicated and slow

Mainly used for approvals, budget tracking, etc. the benefits realized include that it allows processes to move forward from any location.

The power of the document management system to keep my team members informed of submittal or drawing information that is pertinent to their expertise is very useful. I've set this up as a template so that previously setup folder subscriptions based on their respective areas are automatically configured. Each individual receives a daily digest tailored to their area.

Some interfaces such as modifying member permissions are not very intuitive. After you have modified permissions and saved you'd expect it to return to a main screen such as the menu showing all members. However it stays on the same screen for the individual you've just modified and saved. You then hit "cancel" or "X" to close the box. I'm accustomed to it now but in the beginning I had the impression that my modifications had not worked.

The interface with our organization"s financial system is of huge benefit. Business Office personnel complete purchase orders or approve payments within their own software. e-Builder sends the transactions in and receives the resulting transaction number and result automatically. The last thing our Business Office wants to deal with is learning additional new software.

I love everything about e-Builder. e-Builder functions as advertised and more. The cost module reports financial data in a format standard to the construction industry. There are multiple effective ways to import data to e-Builder (i.e. email, direct access, forms, etc.). Reports can be easily and quickly customized, deployed, subscribed to, etc.

There's nothing I dislike about e-Builder. In fact, e-Builder is phenomenal at obtaining feedback and continually improving the product.

e-Builder is the industry standard in cloud-based project management software. There isn't a better system or company.

We deployed e-Builder to manage documents, business processes, and costs. We have standardized many business process, have an awesome audit trail the auditors love, pushed the work down to the lowest competent level, reduced the amount of project related email, and many other wonderful things.

I like the collaborative and workflow capabilities best.

The importing procedures for our workload are not convenient. They need improvement.

perform a thorough process analysis of your procedures and make sure you include everyone!

Capital Improvement Project Tracking

More efficient and productive work from project managers

A good tool integrated with our ERP to track all capital projects including status, funding and region. Easy reporting for any level user.

No real issues with the application. We are satisfied.

good for government use for tracking all capital projects across multiple departmental units.

Gives us a central location to track all CapEX municipal projects, regardless of responsible business unit. Single, centralized reporting to elected officials and the public. Integrates with our public website for transparency.

How easy it is to navigate and to teach our contractors to use.

I don't like the reports it is difficult to get the information I want.

This program is one of the best on the market because you can modify it in house to meet your needs.

We manage multiple projects and the main benefit is I can manage each project with a click.

When I used e-Builder, our management team had access to the highest levels of leadership at e-Builder, and they were very responsive to our needs.

Interface was not very intuitive and my staff complained that the trainings were not easy to understand and the system took some time to get used to.

Workflow for payables approval was previously manual with lots of paper and budgeting was done with a very archaic system. Ebuilder solved both of these issues.

Ease of access. All the eqipments are listed in the specific category and we dont have to spend time searching

We actually use ebuilder to fill our daily Activity reports, once we submit it if at all we have to go back we have to search for the date submitted and no way we can sort it according to date submitted.

Its a construction management program where we fill in all our daily reports

It does help keep all the projects very organized and you can run reports by numerous subjects , people or projects.

I find ebuilder very hard to use. We are constantly setting up new processes, and forgetting to put someone on a project and they are not able to access

The processes bounce back and forth with multiple versions and you can only cancel if you were the originator.

Make sure you have someone who can code and can dedicate time to helping people. We have been using it for almost a year and still have daily issues we need help with.

It's helped us keep our teams focused on just their projects, and has helped us set up standardized methods of doing things. It is easy to do Weekly Reports and see the progress that has been made on a project.
