Procore: Single Source of Project Truth
Procore provides a single source of truth for project information. We are able to coordinate all data through Procore. We upload drawings, submittals, and forms. We create RFIs, Change Orders, Prime Contracts, Commitments, and Invoices through Procore. We also utilize an ERP connection with our accounting software to ensure financial data is updated automatically. Procore does have powerful tools, but the true power lies in the single solution. Many robust tools are available through different vendors, but Procore provides this functionality in a single comprehensive solution.
The biggest benefit to Procore is providing my team with a single place to view information to answer any question they might have about a project.

- Submittal Workflow
- RFI ease of use
- Drawings (no symbol library) (no copy and paste for markups) (markups skew from iOS to Web)
- Detailed Financial Reporting (can't create an invoice aging report)
Daily logs are great in Procore. When you utilize the time tracking solution and daily logs, all time automatically gets imported to the daily log. There are separate modules in the daily log that can be switched on or off depending on the level of detail required. The daily log can be exported to a very presentable PDF for hard copy filing.
Daily log data input is quick and painless and has reduced the time required for data entry while at the same time allowing for more detailed and informative document.

We have recently begun implementing Procore as the company's standard project management software. It is allowing us to standardize our company processes and streamline our construction processes. This has been beneficial as it unifies the company through one standard process which helps us progress towards our goal of being able to move anywhere within the company and know how things are being done.
- Meetings/Meeting Minutes - These are incredibly easy to use and set up to be very neat and quick in their creation.
- Mobile Drawing Access - This is great as when drawings are updated on Procore they are automatically updated on the mobile devices.
- Drawing Revisions - Getting updated drawing sets has never been a quicker or easier process than it is with Procore.
- Quality Control - The quality control tools while thorough can be a bit slow to create and manage in the field.
- Creating Inspection Checklists - This can be time-consuming. I wish there was a way to import checklists or to copy sections or questions.
- Drawing mark ups - Procore's drawing mark up capabilities are very basic and rudimentary and I feel there is room for improvement.
Procore is used as a communication tool between the office and the field. It is great for someone like myself that works in both settings. It is easy to retrieve information that I need and to add new information. The tracking system of when new info and by whom is added is awesome and a wonderful tool as other programs do not have this feature. The photo feature is great also and always for an easy way to upload pictures for all to see/review. The phone app is easy to operate. My favorite part is being able to get online on any computer and access my projects; it's the simplicity of Procore that I enjoy the most.
- Ease of use.
- Phone app is amazing.
- Love having all of my project information at my fingertips!
- I don't enjoy the scheduling portion... this is difficult as I am used to Microsoft Project, so that is one section that we do not use.
- The time card section needs to remember what I chose previously. Sometimes a pain when I don't enter my time on a daily basis. Impossible to change/update.

Small business review of Procore
We do commercial landscape projects, with a few jobs a year that we general on. Procore helps manage our time sheets and stores all documentation in an organized fashion. This allows people in the field to be able to access it without having a bunch of paperwork floating around or in their vehicles since we do not have an on-site office most of the time.
- Timecards. The time cards are very easy to set up and get going with. It was a seamless process between our program in our office to Procore.
- Drawings. The drawings are just a useful tool with all the accessories and tools that you can use to do small takeoffs, figure out square footage, and find distances on the plans and mark them up.
- Directory. Every time I add somebody into the directory and click on "Add to all jobs" it doesn’t add to it. I have to go in manually to each job and add a new worker into each one of the jobs.
- Permissions. It's just very complicated to get things set up and try to figure out how you want your permissions. It takes some time to get used to, but once you have it all set up then you’re good to go.
It makes it so I don’t have to drop off a paper copy and do a paper copy every day. I save on gas which saves money and it saves time. Also, when my boss asked me how things are going on a job, the photos and the daily logs are all there. He can see what the weather was like, how everything is going, and he does not have to make a stop out on the job site.
We keep all of our project plans, schedules, and internal communication to ensure that the whole team is looking at the same information to better execute and also provide updates to our clients.
- Keep documents for the whole team.
- Uploading plans/drawings is very user-friendly.
- Labeling of the emails when sending from documents/forms.
- Submittals approvals for clients that don't use Procore.
Our PM's are communicating better with clients and the rest of the team about what is happening in the field with the projects. That means the rest of the team can better assist with procurement and also making sure we stay on schedule.
We are using Procore for all project management. Procore has been instrumental in improving the setup and distribution of project details and information. The commitments tool has become invaluable with managing subsubcontracts and subsubcontractor pay applications. Procore manages the details in one central project location, that are then reconciled with our company accounting software.
- Commitments tool - Centralized location, easy tracking of vendor/subcontractor pay applications.
- Reporting - is helpful and intuitive
- Timekeeping - Timesheets are confusing. We are really struggling with how to efficiently use Procore for timekeeping
- Dropdown lists are cumbersome with the Desktop view - Procore doesn't remember frequently used or allow for filtering.

Don't stay stuck in the past, join Procore and make your way into the future of construction!
As a company with multiple project managers, superintendents, and foremen, we use Procore to standardize and streamline all of our processes through the many jobs we execute every year. Procore is a huge part of our day to day, from document control to financial management. It helps us achieve a higher level of organization and consistency through every job.
Procore helps us stay on track and keep track of various aspects, increasing the accountability of all team players involved with the tools (RFIs, Submittals, Specifications, Drawings, PCOs, COs, Daily Logs, POs, Subcontracts, etc.).
Procore helps us stay on track and keep track of various aspects, increasing the accountability of all team players involved with the tools (RFIs, Submittals, Specifications, Drawings, PCOs, COs, Daily Logs, POs, Subcontracts, etc.).
- Submittals
- Requests for Information
- ERP
- Implementing software updates
I haven't used the daily logs feature, but we've used Procore's graphs to show labor trends. Browsing through past weeks and months becomes much easier when labor and construction schedule issues arise.
We use daily logs and daily log reporting to document our work and issues that arise. The inspection tool has been customized to what we want to get inspected on each unit and I get a report every week on the open inspections and deficiencies. We use the drawings tool constantly as the main source of blueprint reading and keeping up to date with changes that our customers are making
- Being able to customize reports
- Overlay tool to compare drawings
- It is frustrating to have different features on Android, Apple, tablet and desktop
- I would like a better option to bulk add inspections for all locations
Previously we used paper logs. It was a process to get guys to change their habits, but daily logs are now done consistently. I don't believe it is any faster but it is definitely more convenient to do a daily log on the device you are carrying with you all day than having to do it in a truck or trailer.
I use Procore on construction projects from looking at plans, managing timesheets, documenting the work, and scheduling.
- Ability to store all documentation/documents in one place.
- Ability to manipulate plans and send messages to people in the field.
- It's hard to find a way to put managers time in.
- Can not delete pictures from field devices.
Before Procore, we used an Excel sheet with Dropbox, and that was okay at best. Having everyone doing daily logs in one place with the code already preset for them has eliminated the number of errors on them. Also, on my end, being able to review/adjust/approve on one platform without having to print all and turn in is a huge benefit.
We use Procore to manage submittals, drawings, write and send POs and subcontracts on all of our current projects. We also utilize the bidding tool to distribute drawings and specs to our vendors for potential new projects. Workflow seems much smoother with Procore than before. I don't have to remember to send an email to follow up as Procore can do that for me. I also get notifications when someone updates their response to a submittal which is also helpful. Managing our POs and Subcontracts seems a little simpler as well.
- Project Management Tool is easy to use or modify. Actually all of the tools we are currently using are easy to use, or modify or "figure out" when there are questions.
- Customer Support - whether live chat of email, they are quick to respond and work through any issues with you until you get what you need. If they can't help, they will put it to another level to make sure you are getting the support you need.
- On the budget, having man weeks instead of a lump sum for labor would be useful for our company.
- Having our Procore "talk" to another company's Procore will be a bonus instead of the upload and download and re-upload that we are doing now.
I don't enter daily logs, but some of the field staff do, we need to be more proactive with getting all field members to enter daily logs. Based on what I have seen it is more informative for us in the office to have the daily logs filled in.

Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too!
We manage contracts, change orders, and--most important--shop drawing/submittal changes. Since we are nationwide, we usually struggle to keep up with the constant changes that occur throughout the construction process. Procore keeps everything in order, in real time, for everyone to view at any time from anywhere. We can all be on the same page!
- Tracking
- Constant support available
- I wish I could search for a word or type on a set of drawings without having to click through each sheet to find the window type I am looking for.
- I wish we had more markup tools like Nitro has. Example: have an "undo" button instead of having to always click select, hover over it, and then delete.
Much easier to pick up where you left off. Makes daily workflow seamless and smooth.
We manage commercial and residential small-to-large construction projects. We use Procore to maintain a current set of drawings, submittals, and RFIs.
Once we started using Procore, our field electricians felt more confident that they were accessing the most current, accurate information (i.e. drawings).
Once we started using Procore, our field electricians felt more confident that they were accessing the most current, accurate information (i.e. drawings).
- Drawing maintenance
- Submittal maintenance
- Daily Field Logs: There are too many fields to click on--cannot just type issues.
- Spec Sections: It can be difficult to import--and time-consuming.
We do not use these. We use OneNote for our field.
We use Procore as a building material supplier for commercial projects. Since implementing the program, we have seen an increase in information flow for each project and an ease of tracking responses to changes that occur within the course of the project. We can ensure that each member of the team is utilizing the same document versions.
- Document Sharing.
- Project Organization.
- There Task functions needs to be able to allow for multiple assignees.
- Notifications on specific modules could be improved.
The ability to track responses to RFIs and Bulletins has dramatically affected our daily workflow. Much less time is spent distributing the information, and we can easily follow responses — less room for error.
We utilize Procore to give clients in healthcare institutions and general contractors transparency. Being able to share information in an instant, catalog, and document our work throughout the years and implement change quickly to field staff. It also serves as our time cards and keeps track of billable hours and budgets. Being a company that is across the US it's nice to have the ability to have a standard across the board and Procore is a platform that helps accomplish that well.
- Standardization.
- Ease of use.
- More customization with reports.
- Timecards for non-field staff.

Software for project managers
We use Procore to be our instant non-verbal communication with other project managers and, more importantly, with the installers of the business. Therefore, as a specialty contractor Procore is more than another software to compile documents, send e-mails through, and assign tasks to individuals within or outside of your team. Procore is the software that has deleted other software's and has connected us to other teams from our vendors to the general contractors. Managing resources is essential and is the result to the effectiveness of a manager. Therefore, any project that has a more than one purchase or has a duration greater than a week is developed and managed through Procore. Procore solves many issues but the greatest that it solves is the office being "in-step" with the field installation without being at the site one hundred percent of the time.
- Overlaying plans and keeping the previous plan sets.
- Observations on-site and placing them within the plans and then tasking an individual to create a solution.
- The schedule tool is difficult to change without uploading an update.
- Submittal correspondence for the subcontractor is difficult due to the nature of the process to the GC and architect.
Daily Logs is one of the aspects of Procore that our specific company and our installers have the longest learning curves. Due to the fact that it takes away from installation time and precious time at that with all of the advanced and aggressive scheduling that the general contractor has to commit. The daily log is the first item that gets pushed to the end of the week with the field installers input weekly hours. Yet daily logs are the place that we have designated for our foreman to communicate material or manpower needs for the project.
We use this software for everything day-to-day. From timesheets and employee logs to document project status. We also use it to compile post-project documentation for our clients and it gives us an easy way to bring said clients into the fold of how their budgets are being used. It is very easy to use and streamlines a lot of this into a readable report.
- Allows us to send links to clients to have access to their reports.
- Organizes all employee info.
- More user options would nice to be able to customize a little bit differently.
The ability to have all employees doing their timesheets together (bulk form) makes payroll go a great deal smoother.
We use Procore to streamline a lot of the project management activities -- reporting, submittals, scheduling, and RFI -- and we are working to incorporate the financial metrics for each project.
- Submittals
- RFI
- Financial budgeting/commitments
- Invoicing
Procore makes daily reporting very simple and efficient.

Procore helps with workflow and productivity
We use Procore to manage projects and sub projects on a daily basis. We also use it for fire door and quality assurance inspections. It helps us manage workflow and production as well as giving field staff the ability to make notes of areas that need attention.
- Ability to include floor plans within project management.
- Directory of employees and contact information.
- Continuity between the web-bases user interface and the app based user interface.
- Sometimes buggy in or around software updates.
Procore enables the staff to make edits, update punch lists, and make completed work happen in real time.
- Online training
- in-person training
We are using it to manage our drawings, specs, production, and timesheets. It helps with the instant flow of information and gives everyone easy access to it.
- Document organization.
- Workflow of information.
- Too many modules. I would like to see some of the tool functions combined together.
- When employees are signing their timecards for the week, they cannot see any of the comments.
Overall, I like the daily log tool. However, it would be nice if there were more customization options. It also doesn't keep all the individual's timecards together when they have several tasks that day. It would help if the production tracking was shown on the daily log as well. I really like the ability and ease of adding pictures.

Streamlines Plan Management
Procore is simply a drawing-management software for us. Shop drawings are uploaded and notes and revisions can be reflected on the drawing in real time, allowing for quick and easy transfer of complex and critical information in the event of an issue or job hand-off. It is simple to turn these markups into as-builts during the close-out phase.
- Mobile digital drawing management
- Real-time markups
- Building a new project needs streamlining
- Needs more markup tools, such as duplicating existing symbols or deleting drawing elements
Daily logs not used at the moment

Procore has really helped us roofers with our daily reports
We use Procore for drawings, daily reports, and punch-list items on roofing projects. Procore allows me to look up drawings, take pictures, and put pictures with punch-list items. Procore provides daily reports for foremen to fill out, and he can show on the drawing what got completed each day.
- I love the fact that we can have the foreman mark up drawings with what gets completed each day, including man-hours used, and we in the office can see as soon as they upload.
- Punch-list items with pictures on a drawing with a time-line for completion. Foreman can then fix and mark as complete and ready for review.
- Needs a better schedule
Daily logs: Foremen are getting them done daily. It's a lot easier to make sure they are getting them done instead of waiting until next Monday to see if they get them done. Lots of times the guys would do them all on paper at end of week and forget half of what they had done. They're more apt to do this daily when they can do it on their phones and add pictures throughout the day, such as before, during, and after pictures.

Procore is a tool that saves time, increases productivity, and promotes communication between the office and the field
We are a site contractor specializing in excavation, utilities, grading, and paving. Procore helps us keep in touch with employees as well as track job status, performance, and track employee hours.
- Track employee hours
- Inform us of job status
- Simplify administration
- Template import
Daily logs are completed each day with ease. Project manager simply documents items completed for that day, inputs timecards, and documents any deliveries, phone calls, etc. for that day.
We use Procore on a daily basis to bridge the gap of communication between the office and field. We also use it for plan and document management. We use it on projects for masonry and concrete (structural, site, etc.). Procore helps solve the issue of having the latest and greatest information. Typically, the office will receive the plans before the field gets them. With a few clicks, office personnel can upload plans and the field will automatically receive - this ensures they are always working with the latest set.
- Updates.
- Notifications.
- Cost.
- Customer service wait time.
Procore has increased the speed as daily logs, RFI's, submittals, etc. are required. The tracking feature helps to see who needs to be bugged and who is behind in doing their job. The automatic notification emails are a win! It saves me time on calls where I might get "ghosted" over the phone.

Never miss a milestone ever again!
We are managing a project right now that we have taken over from another contractor and being able to coordinate and have everything we have going on in the field located in one place so that we can accurately put together budgets and forecasts and review change orders really has proven to be invaluable.
- Ability to store all of your important project documents in one place
- Uploading documents is very easy and intuitive
- There is a feature for every task you would need on the job site
- Because there is so much available, without proper training one could get lost
- A complete training does take a good amount of time to become familiar with the program
- There is so much to work with that there are definitely growing pains
Daily logs are an essential part of the construction field team's responsibilities. If we as a company are able to put together and assemble comprehensive and detailed daily reports like the way Procore allows us to, we are able to function at a much higher level of productivity as orders can be placed on time as we are able to quickly get information to those able to make those decisions.

Procore - Taking it to the next level!
We are an electrical contractor. We use Procore daily to manage our submittal process and to store and manage our drawings. The daily problem that are solved with Procore is going to be the flow of information. Usually, we are sent updates and drawings and we have to manually give those to the foreman. With Procore, updates are automatically put in Procore with no effort on our part.
- Submittals
- Dependability
- Drawings cannot be compared to older versions while offline
