    Chose Trimble Accubid
    McCormick is an accurate estimating solution, but is far too bulky too compete with Accubid. Pricing reports and breakout options in Accubid are far superior to McCormick. McCormick's on-screen take off may be a benefit to some, but not worth the trade off of Accubid's robust …

    We use Trimble Accubid to do detailed cost estimates for larger jobs. If a job has a set of blueprints, the software is designed to go through each page systematically to aggregate a bid. Where it is less appropriate are for smaller service jobs. It takes a lot of setup for a new job there are other solutions better suited for service work.

    Cons
    Trimble

    Accubid can sometimes fall short when it comes to CS.

To that end, it has been outsourced to people with accents sometimes difficult to understand. This is my biggest critique

    • because it's a widely used platform it's easy to recruit estimators to the platform
