I am a sales representative/estimator for a large cabling contractor in Memphis. I needed a product to assist me in quoting large and complex low voltage cabling projects. Several of us in my office use it to do takeoffs on these projects. It also provides bid management and unit costing of material and labor. It is so beneficial that we were willing to pay the small monthly cost for it ourselves if necessary - it is that useful of a tool. I can not imagine quoting a large project without it now.
- Allows me to mark off cable locations once to ensure they are counted and not missed, my favorite part of the software.
- Provides a pre-loaded database of frequently used materials with associated labor costs for labor calculation. All fully adjustable to your particular needs. And generates a quote based upon your hourly rates, mark up, etc. All fully adjustable to your standards or special project calculations.
- I use just part of the software, and they frequently enhance the software so I really have no additional needs at this time.
Esticom is the tool we use to estimate jobs, both residential and commercial. It addresses us being able to look at a bid from multiple angles and also know measurements and easily change/adjust those if there is a change in a job bid. Before we would "guesstimate" on something, so if there was a small change, we wouldn't really be able to give a very reliable change number.
- Drawings are much easier to see and available to the whole group without needing to log into personal sites for each set.
- The ability to put measurements on the drawings for bidding.
- The help group ranges from being fantastic to mediocre. If you get a support person that seems to be less than amazing, let them know. I've got a specific person now, but if I would have not voiced my concerns, my review would be much different now.
- They are continuing to improve, but don't always let you know when there have been changes made. You need to reach out to them at least once a year to check-in.
Esticom is used mainly for quote generation. Its primarily used by our engineering and design teams. The sales team also has limited access to membership. This software solves the solution of take off's, markup's and estimates all in one package.
- Estimates are very detailed and laid out well
- Markup function is quick and accurate
- I would like to see Sales being able to use the software for "user needs analysis" or sitewalk.

Easy to use and cost effective.
Esticom is used throughout my company to help estimate new project opportunities. By using Esticom to mark up drawings sent to us by clients it helps us save countless hours each week compared to our old method of printing the drawings and using a highlighter. It also becomes extremely useful when designing projects for clients. You are able to upload your drawings and add symbols using Esticom.
- Helps create design drawings for clients.
- Helps quickly and effectively estimate equipment needed for projects.
- I wish there were more symbols for my industry.
