Notevault is a versatile tool that is widely used in the field and supervision for various purposes. Users rely on Notevault on a daily basis to generate reports, track job progress through pictures, and monitor labor hours and materials. By using Notevault, the quality and accountability of daily reports and job status have significantly improved. This has become crucial as it provides contractors and owners with concrete proof of progress and work completed.

One major application of Notevault is in highway repair projects. It enables more thorough and accurate reporting by allowing users to document daily activities, track issues, capture progress photos, and record subcontractor information. Project superintendents utilize Notevault at every job site to facilitate communication and streamline daily reporting. By incorporating instant information sharing and easy team collaboration features, Notevault emerges as an essential tool across all types of projects.

In addition to construction sites, commercial plumbing contracting companies in Florida and Michigan also rely on Notevault for their daily project notes and communication needs with project managers and contractors. Moreover, Notevault proves invaluable in addressing the common challenge of foremen not turning in daily reports. By empowering them to record notes, take pictures, and track daily activities within the app, the accuracy and immediacy of reporting are ensured.

Furthermore, Notevault serves as a helpful tool for record-keeping purposes related to site issues, progress updates, manpower allocation, safety concerns, change orders, rental equipment management, and more. This comprehensive functionality is particularly beneficial in resolving disputes with clients and subcontractors.

Overall, Notevault has gained popularity among users due to its user-friendly interface, ability to capture real-time information, instant data sharing capabilities, ease of use for generating reports, as well as its effectiveness in enhancing communication between team members. With its wide range of applications in various industries such as construction and plumbing contracting, Notevault has established itself as a reliable solution for efficient daily reporting and project management needs.

Efficient Project Management: Many reviewers have found Notevault to be a fantastic tool for project management and reporting. They appreciate the ability to access the status and overview of projects and reports, which allows them to keep tabs on production and track the sequence of tasks. This feature has been mentioned by several users as a huge time saver, especially when job issues arise.

Accurate Documentation: Notevault is highly effective in proving the quality and condition of work. Users' workers are able to document and photograph project status and condition daily, providing ample evidence in case of any questions or disputes. The ability to save PDF versions of daily reports is particularly valuable, as it allows users to easily share status and conditions with interested parties or customers. Several users have noted that it's hard to argue with time/date stamped pictures.

Improved Communication: Users appreciate Notevault's communication features, finding it easy to keep other support staff in the home office up-to-date with project developments. They also value Notevault's unlimited picture-taking feature, which allows them to provide thorough documentation and context for each photo. The ability to edit and correct daily reports and have them reissued with new information is also found to be very useful by many users.

Labor interface learning curve: Some users have found the labor interface to be challenging to understand and utilize, requiring training to fully grasp its functionality. This sentiment has been expressed by multiple reviewers who have felt that the learning curve is steep and additional training is necessary in order to effectively navigate the labor interface.

Difficulties with adding pictures: Initially, some users experienced difficulty and clunkiness when trying to add pictures to the app. However, they were able to figure it out over time through trial and error. While there may have been a learning curve involved, users eventually became proficient in this aspect of the app's functionality.

Inconvenient report retrieval from archives: The app does not currently offer a convenient way for users to retrieve reports from the archives. This lack of functionality has been noted by some reviewers as an inconvenience, as it requires extra effort on their part to access previous reports stored in the archive section of the app.

Our organization uses NoteVault by our superintendents on the jobsites. We upload progress photos of the construction process and what was accomplished that day. We also report any problems or issues for the day. In addition, we keep track of the subcontractors onsite by recording who was onsite for the day.
  • It is very easy for anyone to use with a smart phone.
  • You can upload photos and voice messages every day without having to do anything special. It automatically updates every day.
  • NoteVault transcribes and uploads the photos directly into our software program.
  • The website for administrators setting up projects and users could be improved. It's hard to find where things are located. I would like it in more of a Office (Word) template, with tabs up top. Some things are in Settings, some are in tabs, some are on the right side.
NoteVault is great for the busy superintendent that doesn't have time to fill out daily reports. He can voice record his observations, take pictures and NoteVault uploads it directly to your software program every day. It works with a variety of software programs. You can also use it for uploading safety information for the day.
  • It has increased our daily reports dramatically.
  • It has provided a consistent account of jobsite activities.
  • Its ease of use has prompted our superintendents to use it throughout the day.

We are using NoteVault to manage daily reviews at our job site.
  • It takes details logs daily
  • The user interface is simple to use
  • It allows pictures and videos to be taken
  • Notes can be taken through typing or voice recording
  • NoteVault reports are emailed out. It would be nice to have them automatically saved to the office drive.
NoteVault allows users to take daily reports of the construction site easily. It may not be as effective where certain info is needed that is shown on a report template, ie, weather, manpower counts, safety.
  • We have been able to take more consistent daily reports from our field staff
I have not used other products similar to NoteVault

NoteVault is used in both our Florida and Michigan operations (mainly in Florida). Our superintendents and other laborers in the field use NoteVault on either their iPhones or iPads, along with using it on their computer. This allows for users to put together a very easy to look at daily report. It allows them to take pictures and make notes on the fly. The transcribing feature is fantastic because it allows the user to speak what they want to write, and it auto generate into the report. And there is also Spanish to English transcribing.
  • The transcribing is fantastic. Allows users to be safer out in the field. Also allows for employees that are more comfortable speaking Spanish, speak in their language, and have it transcribed in English.
  • The apps work really well, especially the NoteVault Notes! app.
  • NoteVault also auto detects weather at the job site 3 times a day.
  • It will also geo-locate the user. This way it can almost prove someone was on site (or off site).
  • Sometimes the autoweather misses a log time. There were more issues with it about 3 months ago. Right now, it seems to be working well.
Anywhere daily reports would be needed, this would be great. The best feature is the smartphone apps, because it allows you to load pictures right from your phone. Rather than emailing them to your self and having to embed the images in a word document, or something similar, you can make your entire report from your phone. I honestly think this is made for construction companies, or any other companies that work on projects. Smaller companies may enjoy it, but it might not be needed by them. But I think everyone could find use of this program
  • Employees are actually doing their daily reports on a daily basis. We had problems before where an employee would do them whenever he felt like. But we are able to watch what is going on a little better, and don't have to have as much contact with the job site as we did. We know what is going on every day.
  • Sage
We could use the daily report feature in our current project management software, but it doesn't have any many features. NoteVault is a no-brainer.
