It is a perfect fit for general contractors who need a professional and organized submittal process without all the extra bloat and high costs of enterprise systems like Procore. It’s great for teams that just want to get a project up and running in minutes. It might be less appropriate for those massive, billion dollar infrastructure projects that need specialized financial modules or a hundred different features beyond just document control.

Cons
Fieldwire
  • The software is geared toward general contractors. We are actively providing feedback to gear it toward engineers, architects, and design professionals.
  • I would like to see more options for mark-ups.

I use this all the time for my field measurements. But sometimes when I am working offline and upload it to cloud after coming to office, the tags get messed up. Some lines I drew at plan gets missing

I give it a high score because it focuses on speed.
You don't have to click through five different menus just to see the status of
a submittal. If you can use a basic spreadsheet, you can use this.

We have used Procore in the past. It's powerful, but they are often way too complicated for what we need and they are very expensive. We felt like we were paying for 50 features and only using about 5 of them. SubmittalLink is faster, more focused, and much more affordable. We chose it because it gives us a professional look with automated coversheets and audit trails without the big company price tag.
