Likelihood to Recommend If you have a lot of customer interaction with your site, where you need to collected specific, targeted, situational data, 123FormBuilder is an absolute winner. If your site is more information and perhaps leads to a software platform or other product or service, 123FormBuilder might prove unnecessarily robust for you. Something simpler and cheaper might make more sense for you. But in most cases where you're seeking to collect information from customers, I'd happily recommend 123FormBuilder.
Read full review Buildertrend was made for a specific industry (building) and so I would recommend it to anyone in that industry, with the exception of Sales and Marketing. But for everything else from the financing to the permitting to the construction and all else, Buildertrend is exactly what our team has used and will ALWAYS use. Even with our decision to use other systems for Sales and Marketing, we have never given one thought to taking Buildertrend out of our process. We will always be with Buildertrend.

There is so much functionality that it can be easy for novices to get lost. Will there be more payment flexibility? parents use more of the bank to person payment options. Read full review I think that the CRM component could use some development. I think that tracking "tasks" or "to do's" could use some development. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I like the product, but I am no longer in control of the project where this product was being used. However, I would definitely use 123ContactForm on future products
Read full review Usability Easy to install and quickly explain to others how to use
Read full review Fantastic usablity. Buildertrend is an amazing tool that offers superior customer service and attention to detail that is unmatched. I will continue to use them for years and I know they will make growing my company a possibility. I highly recommend for companies that want to streamline their business.
Read full review Reliability and Availability I did not encounter any blackout issues
Read full review Performance The interface was very good and easy to use. Everything loaded quickly and it was easy to integrate other products
Read full review Support Rating Very neutral, did not have to use support a lot
Read full review I highly recommend. The only suggestion I have would be to offer a free trial. They do offer a 30 day money back guarantee. The price point isn't daunting if you have had a 100 % no strings attached/no effort to cancel or try to remember to get your money back - no strings attached chance to try out the product. Especially for such a big purchase decision, I think Buildertrend would see an incredible increase in sales. They have the value and companies just need a chance to see it first hand.
Read full review Online Training I installed 123ContactForm myself and while I had some issues installing it I was able to visit their website and the troubleshooting information they provided in their faq section. They did offer other support if a user needed additional support, but I found the information provided on their website to be more than sufficient
Read full review Implementation Rating 123ContactForm was very easy to implement and the content provided by them supported the product very well and answered all of my questions
Read full review Alternatives Considered Compared to JotForm or Woofoo, 123ContactForm offers a much better interface and better flexibility than the other tools. I have used JotForm only to get stumped by their inability to push the limits of the form. As for Woofoo, the level of ease of use in terms of their interface leaves much to be desired. Any updates made to their form was down using a WYSIWYG, where with 123ContactForm you can make the updates while building the form
Read full review BuilderTrend allows me to see a full view of all my jobs in one place. I picked it for this reason. I wanted a solution that subcontractors would be able to use without having to do anything except open their email to get the information they needed to get the job done on time. I've made it so simple that everyone I work with wants to use BuilderTrend. In fact, most of the subcontractors I work with have implemented BuilderTrend because they saw how easy my day to day operations are.
Read full review Scalability It was easy to install and I believe that would make it easy to use across several websites
Read full review Return on Investment 123ContactForm has been positive for my business. It has saved us money because we did not require any development I was able to do this myself. Read full review The prior year cost me roughly $4300, which was barely reasonable for my volume. Some clients liked the format, some hated it and didn't participate. In my experience, few subcontractors or suppliers embraced the program, severely limiting the effectiveness. For the coming year the fees would have exceeded $17,000, far too much for a program with limited client, employee, and subcontractor appeal with as small a volume as I have. Honestly, for the last year, I feel they've been a burning tire hung around my neck and I regret not cancelling them in early 2019, I'd have $10,000 more in my pocket and no significant negative impact. I did appreciate the daily log as a way to report on progress, but less than half my clients made use of this option. Read full review ScreenShots 123FormBuilder Screenshots
