Being used across the whole organization. Project budget tracking, compliance tracking, financials.
  • The import function for invoices is the only function that saves me time in CMiC.
Cons
  • The entire user interface needs to be overhauled. Why do I have to click in five different screens to get one invoice completed? e.g. one screen to choose bill type, another screen to update contracts, another screen to update employees billing rates, another screen to finally create bill.
  • Time tracking for employees. You offer a space for employees to write down their daily tasks but there is no way to export that data after the fact. Why?
  • The manipulation of invoices after they have been posted is impossible. Let the user make manual adjustments/revisions to invoices more easily. This is too cumbersome.
CMiC is the worst user interface experience I've ever had experiencing any software. I have been using it for three years and still click on incorrect drop downs because they are so poorly put together. I suggest you put more first-time users in front of the software and see how confused they are by it.

CMiC Contract Review

CMiC Project Management is being used by our organization to manage contracts, budgets, and changeorders with owners and subcontractors. The whole organization utilizes it, but primarily, it's used by project managers, controllers, and executives. It addresses business problems dealing with contracting with owners and change orders and is tied with payments and budgets.
  • It actively tracks contracts and change orders to give a real time budget for projects.
  • Information is saved per project to easily write multiple contracts to subcontractors withing the same project.
  • Master Agreements are saved at the admin level, so all contracts written within the company include the same language.
Cons
  • The interface is cumbersome and not intuitive to new users.
  • Reasons for contracts or reports not compiling can be ambiguous and difficult to rectify.
  • The ability to copy and paste text from Word documents can be improved to have better formatting and legibility.
CMiC is well suited for having structure and uniformity in regards to writing and issuing contracts. However, it suffers from a difficult to use interface, as well as, ambiguous error messages when inputting incorrect information. Ultimately, it is a very useful tool once the syntax is learned, but the learning curve can be steep for new users.

It is used across our whole organization. Used to manage the day to day operations of our projects such as: daily job logs, RFIs, submittals, and drawing distribution. It really helps keep everyone up to date on all documents concerning our jobs.
It is a good product overall for most day to day activities. Could use a better user interface and cleaner project management abilities.
  • Integrated timekeeping
  • Tracking submittals
  • Daily journal
Cons
  • Tracking job budget (Not very easy to keep updated)
  • Tracking job correspondence (Should be able to add email tracking for important items).
  • Tracking job schedule (Need a way to integrate schedule tracking into UI).

It is being used as a project management software. It addresses communication between field and office, and producing necessary documents for signature with subcontractors.
  • Manages subcontracts well.
  • Manages PCI's well, keeps an accurate log and cuts down time in managing.
  • Manages RFI's well, keeps an accurate log and cuts down time in managing.
Cons
  • Bid management is archaic and needs to be reviewed and rewritten.
  • Punch list has been in beta for 18+ months, and still has issues that have not been resolved.
  • Security is a monster for a mid-sized company such as ours. Simplifying the security issues would be helpful.
CMiC appears to be geared toward the larger construction companies, that can afford to have full-time IT support staff. Mid sized companies may struggle with it, for lack of full-time support. We have not had good luck inviting collaborators to the platform and it seems to struggle when we try. There are other more intuitive platforms that may be better fit for the small customers.

MARANT: CMIC USER!!

The entire organization is using it. No complaints about the program. In the field, everything I need is readily accessible due to CMIC. Due to the type of construction MARANT performs (Tenant interior), I currently complete my own daily reports in a separate bound book. It would be too time-consuming to complete on CMIC. No complaint on the program, just something MARANT would have to assess if we are ever forced to complete these on CMIC.
  • Organization: ability to house all site docs in a central location to extract.
  • Daily journals can be done and uploaded so there is always a copy accessible to anyone requiring it.
  • Date stamps showing when documents were uploaded to confirm the most recent.
Cons
  • Timesheets are always a few pay periods behind and not the current week. Perhaps this is an internal item and not due to CMIC.
  • My sidebar to call up certain projects, and open documents could be a little easier to navigate. The idea of being able to shortcut jobs and pin them for easy access would be nice.
  • Are there any free videos that can be watched for training purposes on the basic functions of the app? Perhaps, I am missing easy stuff because I have not been fully trained and just figured it out over the years.
CMIC is well designed and structured for a construction management company. I have no reason to believe that MARANT should not be using this program. CMIC has the ability to house all site docs, and project documents in a central location and have everything accessible to people that require access.
