Considered Both Products
Procore
Chose Procore
We briefly considered using Raken for the daily log reporting, however quickly moved to Procore due to the advanced functionality offered beyond that of Raken.
Chose Procore
Procore has given us the functionality and tools from multiple different products and centralized it all onto one platform. Thus making it 110% better for managing projects and keeping everyone on the same page. Won't be long until Procore is just about the only product we use, …
Chose Procore
ProCore is MUCH more expensive than BuilderTrend and the pricing model (making it based on revenue and modules) makes it too expensive for small sub-contractors.
Chose Procore
Procore offers a full suite of tools and connection to other software that allows you to keep your entire project within one platfrom for its duration. The other platforms that I have used were not able to cover the entire duration of a project life cycle. This is the primary …
Raken
Chose Raken
We use both software. Procore, we just recently switched over to. It is a compelling program, but just at a higher price point. Raken is a more affordable option, although they may not have exactly all the features that Procore has. But it does what it needs to pretty well.
Chose Raken
Raken services are available using a loud-based, free trial with effective training through documentation. The overall project management capabilities are excellent and effective for our users. Raken settings are also a simple process with a clean interface and functional …
Chose Raken
I'm used to seeing field operations employees use paper reporting for daily reports. I've seen some construction software companies incorporate daily reports but I haven't seen it yet where it is efficient and makes sense to use, most of the time it seems like an afterthought …

Procore Technologies
Procore is well suited when there is an office staff to manage the application, if a company existed without an office staff then the field crews would have to maintain Procore. This could cause more problems than is solves. Otherwise having the ability to pick & choose different modules to suit our use cases is ideal

Easy sub-contractor management ability, time tracking, resource planning and the easy tracking of project equipment using Raken is even enjoyable. Team coordination and project comments and recording sharing among the team members, this is a great tool for that.

Cons
Procore Technologies
  • Downloading drawing sets sometimes involves an extra step that holds up the process
  • The dashboard is simplistic to the point that I don't feel like I am getting enough information about a specific project from the get-go
  • Granting access to a project on Procore is not very straightforward as a consultant- restrictions sometimes cause hold-ups

Usability
Procore Technologies
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.

Procore Technologies
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

Online Training
Procore Technologies
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
