Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

We use it across our entire company, both project management, field and most financials. Addressed holding all project-related data and cost in the same place as overhead, so siloed systems are avoided. CMiC provides strong controls.
  • Visibility across teams.
  • One login for lots of activities.
  • Strong controls; project and financials.
  • Progressive improvements.
  • Users input gets dedicated R&D dollars.
  • Easier customization.
  • Customization cost are HIGH.
  • User experience can be clunky.
  • Less room for error import/exporting financial info.
  • Better project visibility.
  • Time/cost savings by eliminating external systems.
I have heard this is a viable alternative but have not had experience using it.
Questions must be well qualified/documented for the best results, that can take time to screenshot, etc. Support documentation has taken a huge leap forward in the last year for general troubleshooting.

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

Yes

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?

Yes

Would you buy CMiC Construction Platform again?

Yes

Not ideal for small companies as it is not a cheap solution. To go live, expect a lot of time dedicated to testing and fees to train/customize to your business use. That being said, the software pretty much covers every base from HR to Drawing Management to Financials besides being a strong project management tool. Forays into mobile and collaboration features with external stakeholders are promising and may eliminate other external tech subscriptions.
