KYRO vs. Procore

I find KYRO to be an exceptionally well-designed product, ideally suited for both large and relatively smaller teams. Its ability to facilitate collaboration among multiple stakeholders on documents and plans is particularly impressive, making it an indispensable tool in managing diverse and complex construction projects. I appreciate KYRO's effectiveness in scenarios that demand meticulous tracking of labor hours and monitoring project progress to adhere to budget constraints. I perceive KYRO to be less suited for smaller residential projects that don't necessitate its extensive range of features. In such cases, simpler tools may suffice for effective management, making KYRO's advanced capabilities somewhat excessive for these smaller-scale projects.

It works great for project management and putting all job-specific documents in one place. We are able to share drawings, submittals, and forms with our customers and subcontractors in a safe and reliable platform. However, getting reporting data is somewhat lacking, so if your business needs advanced options, you might try and find a better product.

• Document Management: As a project manager, I've found KYRO's document management feature to be a game-changer. The ability to organize all project-related documents in one centralized location simplifies the workflow significantly. Their search functionality works well, allowing for quick and easy retrieval of documents from an extensive archive. This feature not only saves time but also enhances the overall efficiency of document handling in our projects
• Time Management: The timesheet feature of KYRO has been instrumental in streamlining the process of recording and approving work hours. This functionality has been pivotal in efficiently tracking the hours logged by my crew, greatly aiding in effective time management and workforce coordination.

We will undoubtedly renew Procore as it has proven itself to be a means to better track and improve upon our efficiency and communications between job sites and their project managers as well as all other departments. Procore has made an incredible impact on how we, as a company, do our job on all levels; it is one of our most powerful and effective resources.

90% of Procore is very intuitive and any user can pick it up and go. There are a few elements, more so on the Financials side that need some prior knowledge of systems in order to understand how and why it functions as it does. Once this is understood, it flows effortlessly

If you are working in an area with little to no signal, Procore will still allow you to get in the system and use it fully and will then update once you are at a place with a strong enough signal. Whether it be with wifi or LTE cell phone reception.

For the most part Procore is very responsive. However there are times when it's a little slow but it's minimal.

General Support for Project Management and Financials is consistent. The ERP support is never consistent and I do end up at times in a black hole. I have to continually reach out to get the issue resolved or get an update. The ERP support needs more of Procore's attention

Procore's Implementation Team does a great job of ensuring users are confident in using the system. They run through a process of training sessions based on the tools you have purchased, and lay ou ta plan to help the power users configure the tool to suit the company's needs. They provide useful resources for certifications, support and ongoing training as well.

Procore's certification program and focused how-to training videos allowed for easy training that did not feel overwhelming. The way the certification programs were broken up into small parts made it seem much less daunting to complete. The training feels focused and does not overload users with too much information all at once.

Iron out your cost code list in your accounting software before you link with Procore. Once the link is established that list is more or less permanent. Review the permission matrix carefully. It controls so much. You want to ensure the information provided to your users adequate but you also want to protect your sensitive data. Procore Financials are organized in a total contract value style. Any markup or Profit will need to be sent somewhere on your budget. This may be significantly different than the Cost budgeting that many contractors do

Procore has a clearer user interface and a wider variety of tools than any program I've used. Procore also lives up to their name in terms of helpful and fast customer service. There is always a Procore rep. that is available to contact, making any problems just a mini hurdle.

once in awhile Procore is down for a period of time, its frustrating when it happens but doesn't tend to last long.
