Procore vs. Fieldlens by RedTeam

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.

Best for tracking projects, both big and small. Knowing what was budgeted and the actual expenses for a project is extremely useful. Also, it's helpful that you can review the amounts at all stages of the project to allow for corrections if the budget is being exceeded. It is extremely useful as a central depository for information.

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.

Extremely like to renew our use of Fieldlens by RedTeam. Program is very intuitive and easy to use. It helps keep focus on the project. Anyone can look and see the actual vs budgeted costs to determine if project is on track. Easy to train others on RedTeam with minimal oversight.

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

Incentivized

Extremely easy to use. Very user-friendly. Help is always available, but the program is very intuitive. Does not require extensive training to get someone up and running. We have a lot of people in the field that use Red Team. It is easy to explain over the phone how to use the system or to help them navigate the program if they have an issue

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.

Procore is a different beast and solves different company issues. We use Procore to manage the external part of our construction business. Field superintendents upload progress notes and pictures into Procore. However, RedTeam is our main project resource as it can also handle our budgeting concerns. Both are easier to use but RedTeam definitely has the advantage.

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