We are a plumbing subcontractor. We use Procore for Drawing and Photo storage, RFI's, Daily Logs Change Orders. Drawings, Photos, Daily Logs, and RFI's are accessible to all of our authorized users for a particular project, and Change Orders are available to those at a higher authorization level.
  • Drawing & Photo Storage
  • Daily Logs
  • Change Event To Change Order Conversion
  • RFI and Change Order Management
  • Needs to be more subcontractor friendly. The process of just getting to Change Orders is far too time consuming.
  • A separate subcontractor platform with ONLY subcontractor friendly modules would be great.
Procore is very well suited for almost any general contractor, regardless of size. Procore is suitable for subcontractors looking to keep better track of their projects.

It's being used throughout the company. It centralizes all of our documents an makes them accessible to all of our employees, in or out of the office. It allows us to disseminate information seamlessly to subcontractors. We are able to manage our RFI's and CO's with ease and document those changes to ensure total understanding on the part of the receiving party.
  • Comparing drawing versions is very simple.
  • Creating RFI's and CO's is quick and easy.
  • All files are backed up and retained.
  • User management is simple.
  • They are proactively adding new feature.
  • Their support is excellent.
  • It's a bit pricey.
  • Additional modules are an added expense.
  • Projects on phones can use a lot of cell data if you're not on WiFi.
Procore has been a great help in getting information to the field users in a timely manner. It's also nice to be able to have an RFI start in the field, then go to a PE for review and then final review to the PM. Then it will manage the response by sending reminder emails to the receiving party if the answer is slow to arrive.

We use Procore to keep up-to-date contract documents accessible to the field team at all times. We also use Procore to record our daily activities and as our internal document storage and distribution system.
  • Share information.
  • Control project punchlist.
  • Maintain project documentation.
  • Drawing mark-up tool could be more user-friendly.
  • A Procore Drive copy and paste function would streamline cloud-based work flow.
  • Add contact information to the project without giving them access to the project.
Procore is well suited for field management, up-to-date contract document control, and cloud-based workflows.

It is being used by the entire organization in order to keep workers in the field in the loop with updated drawings and information. It also allows our workers in the field to communicate with the project managers and create redline drawings and send any photos or RFIs.
  • LOVE how easily it tracks documents.
  • Enables consistent communication throughout the project team.
  • Incredibly user-friendly.
  • I can't think of anything that could be improved!
Procore is incredibly well suited for a project that has the team spread out over a large area or in multiple offices. It enables consistent and up to date information transfers.

We use Procore for our project managers and financial admins. Some of our on site employees use it and others do not. It helps us keep track of current jobs, drawings, contracts, change orders, and pay applications.
  • Makes AIA applications simple.
  • Allows for G.C. to invite their subs to use it as a one stop shop for the project.
  • Procore needs more direction on how to fix mistakes. I have seen employees be able to enter the information fine, but if there is an issue that the employee needs to back track through, Procore does not make it easy to figure out.
I definitely think Procore is a great program but it is expensive. It is definitely geared more to a general contractor and less of a subcontractor. I am currently using it at a subcontractor level and for our larger projects, Procore really helps keep the job organized. With smaller projects though, Procore does not have many advantages over a less expensive/smaller project management system.

Procore is being used by our entire new construction department, all project managers, estimators and field leaders are using the program. Procore has helped us with the dissemination of information throughout our organization in real-time. Procore also helps us track changes on projects using the drawings and mark up tools available.
  • File sharing.
  • Communication.
  • Reminders for overdue submittals and RFI's.
  • Downloading forms is an arduous task.
Procore just helps in all aspects of a project, whether it is large or small. When you can get your people in the field pertinent information at the click of a button, and it just makes life a whole lot easier. The customer support is amazing and if you can't figure out how to do something they will help walk you through any issue you are having.

I use Procore to get real time information to our onsite personnel. Information is at their fingertips that before was only in the office setting.
  • Information is organized.
  • Easy to use.
  • Information is accessible anywhere.
  • I wish the submittal work flow was a little more user-friendly.
  • I would like a better scheduling tool.
  • The tools are different from laptop to Apple to Android. This can be a little confusing.
We have to have submittals and specifications onsite. Before we used huge books with paper that often were left in the work trucks. When a new person was onsite, they often did not have this information readily available. With Procore, I simply add them to the project and it is all there on their phone or tablet within minutes, seconds even.

Project management for HVAC commercial construction. Used for financials, payment applications, RFIs, uploading plans for field workers, material requests from field workers, ERP with QB.
  • Job costing
  • Construction draws
  • ERP intergration
  • ERP errors are difficult to repair
  • When an employee uses "forms" if they forget to send it by email it never gets seen
  • No time keeping option
Works well for the construction industry but cannot be used for the service industry which goes hand in hand for HVAC.

Procore is being used as a financial management, project management, and delivery tool. Procore cuts out the fluff, and gets right to the point with tasks and reminders. Everyday reminders make it impossible for others to forget their roles and responsibilities. The drawings tool makes sure that every member can access it remotely and see the most up to date drawings. Overall, I believe Procore is an excellent tool for all businesses.
  • Drawings.
  • Tasks.
  • RFIs.
  • Financials tool is very confusing and has a steep learning curve.
  • The lack of customization on the daily reports hinders it from being great.
  • Separate tab for Excel type sheets/forms.
Procore is an excellent project management tool. Thanks to Procore, once you post it, you never have to think about it ever again, as it will remind the assignee repeatedly until the task is finished/question is answered. Procore's customization drawings tool is also excellent for live tracking from the home office while on the field.

We are a concrete construction company. All office administration uses Procore and top level field workers use Procore. Office uploads contract documents and drawings, field uses this to build the project. During the project, the field uses Procore to track daily tasks, store job site photos, and create and submit paperwork (RFI, submittals, change orders, etc).
  • Looking at drawings on a mobile device.
  • Has the option to click on section details to go to the page the detail is on.
  • Has easy upload for documents with Procore drive.
  • Allow a user to move drawings and documents from another user's account to their own when they have been invited. Right now you have to download from the invite then re-upload.
  • Give the option to print from Procore without downloading.
  • Allow a user who has been invited from 2 different emails to combine the accounts into one without contacting all of the people who invited you and asking them to change your email in their system.
Procore works great for a construction company. With more contractors in the industry signing on to Procore, our method of passing information (drawings, documents, etc) is becoming more standardized. Viewing drawings on mobile devices is great. Working with drawings while on a computer is not as nice. I prefer to download them to my computer and use Bluebeam to work with them.

Procore is used across the company to keep all areas of the construction process updated from the field to the office. We use it to keep in contact with subcontractors, keeping daily logs, maintaining prime contracts, subcontracts, budgets, drawings, documents, updated photos, and drawings. It allows us to keep communication live through the process as well as keep change orders, purchase orders, documents and commitments organized in one place so everyone can see what they need wherever they are.
  • Organization of subcontracts (commitments).
  • Maintaining budget items on the subcontract side.
  • Uploading drawings, submitting, and as-builts.
  • Keeping communication in one place to track an item.
  • Customer support is quick and insightful.
  • Prime contract invoicing to Quickbooks does not allow for ERP link.
  • Prime contract change orders do not link easily within ERP on Quickbooks.
  • ERP communication is lagging as compared to the other areas of Customer support. Often that is the area that we need quicker support as so many things rely o that connection before you can proceed forward.
General usage and subcontracts are incredible and are easy to use within the Quickbooks platform. Prime contract usability with the Quickbooks platform is where we run into the biggest problem. Another area that could use improvement is the compliance tracking.

A good portion of construction management provides a more streamlined approach throughout all aspects of the construction process. If you are looking for a way to keep the processes in one area and the ability to track jobs through all portions of the process, Procore does a great job with this.

Procore was used by my organization to project manage an upcoming construction project that had a lot of moving parts and limited management staff to oversee the project. It made managing the entire situation easy for my team because of the seamless software and the interface was easy to understand by all parties involved.
  • Alerts/notifications: Deadline dates were clear.
  • Project setup: It was a breeze.
  • Post-mortem Review: Lots of other project management software makes it difficult to go back after the project is done to review it.
  • Costs: Pricier than competitors.
  • Mobile: Our team didn't have a good experience.
  • Customer Service: More difficult to get help when needed.
We really liked the software overall because it helped us execute a complicated project where the management was very hands-off. It was really up to the team to self-manage and work together to make sure everything went as planned. This software helped us communicate with each other and immediately know when anything went off the rails.

At Century Exteriors Inc. We use Procore to manage and organize our HR, safety, management, and financials for projects. We primarily use it for project management and safety, as we have grown and become more comfortable with it we have started to use it for other areas such as quality control, HR, and financials over projects. We find Procore covers most PM daily tasks and is simple to use in the field from their app. This is where it counts, field and office. Safety, HR, and quality control are among some of the items that get left behind, having them in an app form helps our workers remember these items needing to be completed. Something I wish they had: Clone inspections and observations Add multiple signatures to inspections and observations. Safety isn't just about filling a form out, we need to legally have workers sign off. We've made them aware of the hazards and safety protocols so we need workers confirmation they have received these. Procore hasn't been that user-friendly to the subcontractor side of construction. We're a subcontractor with occasional contracting. We need something a bit more streamlined or simplified.
  • Document control - one place for everything. Just wish we could have all files move to new projects created with the project template.
  • Employee/contact Log - everyone's tickets and certifications, letters can be kept in one place listed per company. Just wish we could track expiries outdated training tickets or expired safety equipment or vehicle/equipment inspections
  • Project Management - allows many employees to participate in a single project with a level of permissions and always has the latest revisions.
  • I've listed some already but - inspection forms sign and clone
  • Hidden % markup for change orders
  • Track and extract all inspections for selected dates and export full form details for safety submissions
  • Allow files to transfer from folder list from the project template. We have many forms that need to be added to every project
Good for medium to large construction companies, small construction companies need a smaller simpler version as they often are in the office while they're working in the field. They don't have time to do the fine detail of larger company office workforce

Procore was rolled out on a complex multi-year project that involved many team members who need multiple project management tools in one platform, rather than trying to duplicate work across many different systems. This synergy across the different tools saves time and simplifies how information is distributed to all team members.
  • Reports - Since you can track just about anything from deliveries, equipment, daily reports, punch lists you can generate reports to summarize the impacts of that data.
  • Document control - Keeps everything in one place and revisions/updates are managed easily.
  • RFI Organization - Make easy ball-in-court assignments to keep the flow of information moving.
  • Some challenges with handling specifications and verifying how sections are processed.
It's beneficial to connect lots of team members on large projects across each aspect of the project including the design team, owner, general contractors, project management team, and subcontractors.

Procore is being used to keep all of the job site information in a localized platform that keeps all of the documents up to date. Rather than having to hunt for information across multiple platforms/places everything is uploaded to one website that everyone involved with the project has access to. We are using within the BIM, project management, and field departments. The guys in the field love it.
  • Organization is phenomenal.
  • Access by all users is fantastic.
  • Sometimes it is tedious to find a particular item but sometimes that is due to who has set the project up.
  • My computer is running Windows 7 and there is not an application that I can put on my computer to make it easier to access drawings.
Procore is great for any project of any significance of size. It is not really setup for an individual sub-contractor to access. It is made for general contractors.

Procore is used by Estimating, Project Management and project superintendents for daily tasks (submittals, RFIs, plan access, daily reports, photo logging, etc.). It is also used by subcontractors, owners (sometimes) and architects. We are not using it for production reports and find the schedule module difficult to use. We do use it for email distribution and communication with subs.
  • Plan processing is great. We love that it makes single sheets from big files and is easy to update to keep sets current.
  • The submittal process works well. Granted, we are not receiving submittals from subs through Procore, but we do send them to the design team and to subs for redistribution.
  • RFI processing is easy with Procore.
  • I am disappointed with how scheduling works. Is there a way to upload Microsoft project schedules that can be viewed by all?
  • Is there a way to go "back" when doing a new submittal or RFI? If I don't post/send and I need to check something else, when I go back I lose what I have created.
  • Is there a way to "select all" when sending emails?
For us, the system of processing plans, RFIs, and submittals are very useful and it provides logical next in sequence documents, logs, and reports. I am able to receive a set of plans, process them fairly quickly, and email them to all subs easily. RFIs and submittals are similarly processed.

Procore is being used by our entire organization. We use it on construction projects from start to finish. We use the bidding tool to issue bid invitations to our subs and suppliers and to track their responses. When we start a project, we use the financial tools, the project management tools, the directory, and the daily reports. It is great to have all of those things in one package that is available online or with the app.
  • Instant collaboration with the field staff and designers.
  • Keeping information organized and formatted in a standard manner.
  • Permanent record keeping.
  • Uploading sets of specifications has improved but could still use work. It requires a large amount of time after the upload to verify each section is correct.
  • It would be nice to have all of the tools that are online available in the mobile app.
  • The process of preparing potential change orders is clunky because you are required to go to two different modules.
Procore is particularly well suited for larger projects. It condenses the project information in a way that helps prevent confusion with subs and suppliers and is a one-stop place to get the information you need. On smaller projects, the software is sometimes just too large. There are so many things that it can do, but on a small project, it is sometimes easier to just use less modern methods for project management.

We use Procore for our entire Project Management needs for construction use. It handles everything from financial budgeting, to cost reports, RFI tracking, submittal tracking, change orders, pay applications, drawings and specification organizations and photo management. It helps keep subcontractors and vendors on the same page with information, as it's used for bidding out projects as well. Does everything for us except handle schedules.
  • Drawing management
  • RFI / Submittal organization
  • Financial reporting
  • Invoicing
  • Interfacing with Architects and Engineers
  • Interfacing with Subcontractors
  • Have not used scheduling feature - appeared that it didn't integrate well with programs we use
Very well suited to handling costs - from financial reports to change orders to sub's and clients, to invoicing. Change order process appears to be a bit cumbersome with the PCCO to PCO. It confuses some clients, so I've skipped the PCCO step and gone straight to PCO. This avoids confusion of numbering with people.

Procore is used to generate subcontracts and change orders to subcontractors, track changes to the project and generate appropriate documents to modify the contract with the owner, track submittals and RFIs, and monitor the project budget.
  • Allows design team to collaborate on RFI issues.
  • Tracks change events into subcontractor change orders easily.
  • Tracks change orders to subcontractors into change orders to the owner with relative ease.
  • Allows field staff to share photos of an issue with all team members, while at the same time archiving the photos with a single motion.
  • Design team members cannot handle submittal and RFI issues the same way. RFI issues need to be able to have collaborative input for resolution like submittal issues have.
  • When looking at the Change Events page, the info above the column headings scroll out of sight. Info should be able to be locked in place so we don't have to scroll all the way back u to move to the next page. Same applies to RFIs and submittals.
  • No supports for 360 photos for the iOS.
  • No Prime contract info available in the iOS version.
  • When creating a commitment, why can't the save/cancel buttons float at the bottom of the screen, so it isn't necessary to scroll up & down the entire page each time you make a modification?
Field observations are very useful. You can photograph particular conditions, save the photo in Procore for a particular location, and share the observation with the entire team, or selected members as necessary. The observation can be used to trigger change orders, safety issues, RFIs, etc very easily. The observation can be set to remind the involved parties that it remains open or in various stages of processing at intervals you can specify. This helps make sure open items get addressed and resolved in a timely fashion.

We use Procore across our organization to collaborate with our subcontractors, employees, and clients by way of sharing the current version of the project drawings, documenting, distributing and tracking issues (observations), RFIs, punch list items, and submittals. Our clients especially like the photos tool, which automatically uploads our daily project photos, and notifies the clients so they can see real-time progress.
  • The Request for Information (RFI) tool is invaluable to document, distribute and track project questions and responses. The ability to select an official response(s) to distribute to the team means they quickly see the final answer and don't have to wade through the entire conversation.
  • The drawings tool is the most important and frequently used, to make sure all team members and subcontractors have easy access to current drawings with the ability to see previous versions, markups, and links to things like RFIs. The ability to place markup bubbles and links to RFIs, observations, etc on the live set of drawings, allows us to call attention to changes that are in progress, so workers in the field can easily see a change is happening before proceeding with work that might be affected by the change.
  • The Photos tool allows us to document daily progress, and automatically uploads the photos and notifies subscribed users, such as our clients, architects, and designers, who can view the photos to see real-time progress.
  • The submittals tool is overly complicated and could benefit by having the option to select an advanced or basic view. Also, a pop-up pointing to the drop down submittal status needing to be changed for it to actually be submitted would greatly help our less familiar users.
  • A simplified reports creation tool is desperately needed. Some of the canned reports are nice, but it would be nice to be able to easily tweak them rather than have to create a report from scratch, which can take a very long time, and is frankly hard to navigate and understand.
  • Some drop-down menus, such as to select subcontractors in the punch list tool, allow the user to start typing, and then the menu filters the results, while other menus, such as the trade drop-down menu, does not support this functionality. All menus in all tools should support filtering while typing.
Procore is great for project management tasks, such as for creating, collaborating and distributing RFIs to the design team. The Observations (issues), and punch list tools allow me to create, track and collaborate with our subcontractors and employees, to help prevent these miscellaneous items from falling through the cracks. In addition, the ability to create links to RFIs, observations, etc. on the project drawings (within the drawings tool), calls attention to important items that could get passed over by workers in the field, who primarily use the drawings tool.

Procore was being used to organize project documents such as subcontract agreements, purchase orders, change orders, etc.
  • Connects subs and vendors in real time with the project activity.
  • It's somewhat hard to upload past project info if you have started Procore in the middle of a project.
In my experience, which I realize is limited, Procore is good. I believe that if our company had used Procore to its full potential we may have enjoyed it. There is a learning curve, but once you see how all the parts of Procore connect together it is a nice product. I have used three other construction-based software systems and none of them connect the whole project together the way I believe Procore would have if we had bought the whole package. It IS expensive and the expense was a major factor in why we did not buy it. The other factor was timing. We had just bought—about 8 months previously—QuickBooks Enterprise. I realize there is not a great comparison between the two systems but we were already very familiar with QB and its set up. Later, when Procore was introduced, we MAY have gone for the whole package but it is a Titanic-ish event to change software, so it was not heavily considered.

  • The RFI process allows for simple and effective collaboration between owners, architects, and contractors.
  • The drawings module is so easy to use, and prevents the need to constantly print out drawings for use in the field because the most up to date drawings are accessible via tablet, cell phone, and computer.
  • Procore has great customer service. The customer service is typically very quick and the representatives seem very knowledgeable.
  • We use Jonas for our accounting software, but unfortunately, Procore and Jonas do not work together.
I recommend that all construction companies could utilize Procore.

Used for budget analysis, submittals, seeing the scope of work for contracts and purchase orders, scheduling, RFI's, reports, and change orders. The departments using Procore are project managers and some members of financial.
It organizes the company to do all of the above in correlation with each other and allows any other manager the ability to be able to pick up a project if another manager cannot at any given time. It also gives us the ability to see where the project is financially at any given time, tracking submittals and RFI's at a glance.
  • The ability to have anyone pick up the project at any time, as long as the data is being inputted.
  • The "bugging" of expected information from subs, to architects, to engineering.
  • Gives us financial lookie-loos at any point to make game-time decisions.
  • The ability to track change orders per decisions made, and then roll them into the prime contract.
  • Sometimes the cloud goes down and we have no access at all. Fewer outages.
  • Price of service is steep.
  • Could reduce the amount of having to do the same thing too many times to get the same result.
Suited for project management of any type of contract that involves the hiring of services from others to perform the work from my company. Helps with everything from the financials, to the submittals of contracts, to the watching and balancing of the budget to ensure that the project is finished on time, on budget, and most importantly, on schedule.
