Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

CMiC is being used by the company as a whole. Field, Enterprise, and ETime are used company-wide. Field is used in the management of construction projects. I have experience with the submittals, RFIs, budget management, contracts, project set up, and forecasting modules. The problem that it solves is to get all projects on the same platform and create similarity and unity on how projects are run.
  • Forecasting
  • Submittals & Submittal History
  • Budgeting
  • RFIs - Doesn't process a good-looking report with the information displayed well.
  • Occasionally, the Field module is glitchy and won't log on.
  • Occasionally, will glitch in subcontract change orders/PCIs and lose all information.
  • Improved forecasting accuracy
  • Improved workflows between teams
  • Increased project synchronicity through use of same platforms
Viewpoint is more flexible with deliverables, however CMiC is better with tracking finances.
Our IT department seems to understand the program inside and out, so with all issues and glitches I have had, I've been able to get resolution within 24 hours. There is also a user manual I have recently found that really helps me to understand the features and quirks of the program.

Do you think CMiC Construction Platform delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with CMiC Construction Platform's feature set?

Yes

Did CMiC Construction Platform live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of CMiC Construction Platform go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy CMiC Construction Platform again?

Yes

CMiC Construction Platform is best when dealing with dollars and cents. Contract Forecasting and budgets are reliable and easy to use. I tend to go around the system when processing RFIs as the report provided from the construction platform is less than satisfactory. There are occasional glitches, but for the most part, it solves more issues than it creates.
