BuildTopia excels at contract management. Every part of the contract process is able to be managed electronically from initial signing to closing, and can even handle more special cases like contingencies. BuildTopia manages all of our construction efforts well. All of our floorplans are pre-build in the system, so all we have to do is go in an build out the construction schedule from a pre-made template, and make any alterations from there. The selections process is always a headache, but BuildTopia makes it pretty painless. Everything is loaded right in to the system while making selections with the client, and more detailed things, like non-standard options, are easy to load in and process. Read full review Soooooooo easy to set up and use! So user friendly a monkey could do it. Customer support is phenomenal. Phone, email, online chat. Easy to follow instructional videos. No call centre in Thailand. I love that you can use pre-filled data. Type up lists once and NEVER have to hand type them again! Just click! Tagging! Being able to categorise photos to particular categories for enhanced search functions. Brilliant! Fully flexible customisation. All the templates we have created we have had full creative capabilities with. I haven't found anything yet that I wanted to do that couldn't be done. I was even able to add three pages of terms and conditions to a purchase order template. Read full review Cons Constellation HomeBuilder Systems
Requests for platform enhancements, while easy to submit and get approved, are slow to be turned around...often a year or more passes before they're implemented. BuiltTopia, while good for sales and construction, is missing one large thing...a CRM component. The system allows you to manage clients and prospects, but options for email marketing and other CRM-related efforts are lacking. Read full review To send the induction template to every sub contractor to fill out and send back to us before entering site. Once we have the basic information we then can do the induction and sign off after completing the induction. Each induction could generate a number and it could form a list of names to a number on a register. Site safety audit. If we could carry over a problem to create a list that has to get signed off ones done. That would be very handy. Every one of our files generated is to be able to be re detected back on our own business server. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Constellation HomeBuilder Systems

Read full review Usability Constellation HomeBuilder Systems
It is so simple. I put off getting an online system for sooooo long because I dreaded the thought of getting a new system, having to set it all up and having to teach everyone how to use it. I also envisaged me being the port of call every time it stopped working or people didn't know what they were doing. I now wish I had done it a long time ago. The set up was so basic. I had 45 minutes of training over the phone in front of my PC and I was set to go! By the end of the day, I had already gone from "I'm just going to start off with Site Diaries and implement everything else gradually" to "this is bloody amazing, everything is now on Dashpivot and everyone is using it!" We converted our entire site and internal systems over to Dahpivot by Site Mate in the space of a day! True story.

Some onsite audit tools are hard to use, they do not transfer well to a mobile platform. Dashpivot is easy to read and use on any mobile device. Additionally other platforms make the document build cumbersome, DashPivot is simple and easy to develop or copy new tools.

Overall, our company has saved money by being able to shut down all the various platforms we were using for different departments and transition to just BuildTopia. Company efforts are more efficient, with all pertinent information being in one place and able to be viewed by everyone as needed. Efforts of the sales team are better able to be managed and reviewed from afar whereas we only had physical paper trails before.

It usually would take a day to get the report to the Project Engineer, but with the Dashpivot the reports are almost instant with a good internet connection.
