eSUB Construction Software vs. Paycom

If you are doing any sort of new construction, eSUB is a budget friendly option for managing the process. It's helpful for keeping track of submittals, RFI's and for foreman doing Daily Work Reports. It is not suited really well for plan management and scheduling. The modules for these are not well thought through. Also if you specialize in service work or projects that have short durations (i.e. 1-2 weeks or less), eSUB isn't the best option for you. It would take too long to set up a job vs the time it takes to do the job.

The system contains a vast amount of information, and the entire thing flows seamlessly from one form to the next. When you set things up properly, you can automate several other entries to be updated by just changing one piece of data. The system speeds up your own processes and can reduce your workload in an instant.

• It is built with subcontractors in mind. There are many PM software available but this one aims at the commercial subcontractor.
• It does a great job covering the basics of typical commercial work. There are areas that allow you to customize such as adding reservations of rights to documents.
• It can integrate with Microsoft quite a bit, we use this in our work every day and being able to export or sync data/calendars has been helpful.

• Their software is top notch! Extremely user friendly.
• Their customer service is great. You most always speak to the same person on your "team" they designate to you.
• They have so many "standard" reports set up in their system, ones so specific, you would think they know HR a little ;)
• Year End Tax time, has been breeze with Paycom. W2's come with no issues, reporting, etc.
• Their benefit coordinators are extremely knowledgable of benefits and they make enrollments so seamless!

• I have no suggestions at the moment and if I ever do have a question, concern or suggestion, a quick email to eSUB gets a quick response.

Incentivized

• GL set up can be clunky until you understand how it works.
• Be able to edit document types. I made an entire document then realized I attached it incorrectly and had to start over.
• Advanced Report Writer would be nice to combine multiple areas into one report easily.

We've made the mistake of moving away from Paycom to a PEO which had made a lot of promises, that they could not keep. Less than a year after that transition, we returned to Paycom and are happier than ever.

The system is very user friendly. Once you navigate where your information is stored under the forms you are golden. While the training amplified my capabilities and knowledge, I could have jumped into the system without and training and managed just fine. This probably one of my favorite parts about Paycom!

They are very dependable and I have never experience any outages

Yes, Paycom's performance is excellent, no issues.

It has been helpful whenever I've called. They have been able to walk me through solutions and even direct me to the right answer. There was only 1hr difference between time zones so this was manageable. If we experienced bugs, their IT department was helpful at remedying and they were always rolling out updates.

Our TSR has been wonderful to work with. Every step of the
way he was quick to respond and answer any questions we had. I knew I could
reach him at any time (day or night) and he would be available to assist.
Implementing a new HRIS system is obviously a huge task and I contribute all
our success to our rep Kurt! Of course, with any implementation, there were
bumps along the way and issues. But I always knew we would work as a team to
get those issues figured out. Working in the Paycom system has been smooth and
easy to learn and I enjoy the employee self-service interface. Our managers
have had positive things to say and are all excited about the changes we have
been able to make to our organization due to Paycom being implemented.

They were a sales person and not really a good trainer.

All the online training modules were short and straight to the point. Every module teach you how to use the system. If there is one thing they know how to do is training. We did implementation during the pandemic so all had to be done online or via zoom meetings.

Not at all satisfied it was a nightmare we spent over 8 months with the implementation team having issues after issues all related to the Puerto Rico regulations (half my employees are in Puerto Rico) and at the end we were moved over from the implementation team to the production team without all the issues being resolved

eSUB is not even close when it comes to the offerings that the others have. eSUB is a happy medium for the functionality it provides and is at an affordable price point that it doesn't break the bank. Other solutions are a lot more integrated into the company processes and procedures, which means more upfront investment to get the platform to go live. eSUB's simplicity makes it easier to roll out because it doesn't integrate with as many aspects of the business.

The company already had the system in place when we merged with them. Upon learning the new system and transferring all the data correctly, I found it was easy to use, navigate and control. Even though I left that company there were very good products that I wished the new system had and don't. Honestly there is no system that will work 1000% as the data entered sometimes is not correct.

They are not able to meet our current needs

• eSUB saves time as you don't have to type, print and send documents.
• I like to call it "set it up once, use it a million times" as once you set up a customer, vendor etc... you can use them across multiple platforms.
• It saves money as you don't need a pool of resources to manage a project due to its ease of use.

Incentivized

• Saved time, 2 person HR department so time is limited. With reduced time for onboarding we have been able to focus on other areas.
• Improved employee satisfaction- employees enjoy the ease of use of the system and the ability to use on their phones.
• Reduced background check/drug screening costs- prior providers were absorbent in the amount we paid compared to Paycom.
