Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

CMiC is used as a construction management software across the entire company. Company-wide. It handles most of our contract management, insurance management, and accounting. Specifically, our project cost management, our incoming invoices and tracks our outgoing (billings) invoices as well as payroll management. On the project level it manages our budget and change management as well as tracking RFIs, submittals and cost forecasting.

Procore is a better collaborative tool (within the company and with outside partners) but CMiC is a better cost management tool. Procore customizations are really pricey compared to CMiC's. Plan management in Procore is WAY better than CMiC. Procore has better online access to files and plans for subcontractors. In many ways, Procore performs better than CMiC is it's also more expensive.
Works okay for the price. It seems stuck in 2005 while other products are built-in more collaborative and 'smart' features.

Would you buy CMiC Construction Platform again?

Works well enough to get the job done but other management products are more advanced (and more expensive) and allow better collaboration within the company and with outside parties.
