    eSUB Construction Software
    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.

    Very well suited: 1. Small organizations and businesses ( 50, I don't think Ticktick is the best tool for that... Ticktick is excellent for keeping oneself accountable and on point with one's task. There should be an inherent sense of ownership from the user because an app can only do so much. It is not well suited for big organizations with more than 50 people, where visibility of stats is required on an admin or higher level. Plus, collaboration will become a lot clunkier as the number of team members increases. Knowledge management will also be an issue.

    Pros
    eSUB Construction Software
    • 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.

    Cons
    eSUB Construction Software
    • 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.

    • The task reminders are in the form of a notification - it would be nice to have an email option.
    • All tasks due on the same day/time show up as one notification versus separate - this can be hard to separate as far as task planning goes.

    So far it accomplishes everything I need it to without unnecessary complications. The only reason I can think that I wouldn't renew is if I was required to use something else.

    It is super simple in its set up and easy to learn to use. Many other apps are overly complicated which TickTick is not. It always depende on what features you are looking for but I did not even need to explain anything to those who struggle with newer technology

    eSUB Construction Software
    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.

    Alternatives Considered
    eSUB Construction Software
    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.

    TickTick has a better UI and UX compared to the other competitors, and the Quick Add feature from any window is a must for inbox task management!

    Return on Investment
    eSUB Construction Software
    • 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.

    • Effective tracking of my time and tasks; made me understand the value of my time.
    • Had a streak of 62 days straight where I didn't miss a single planned task.
    • It has become a repository of all the dead tasks, projects, and ideas I can pick up whenever possible.
