Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

We use it as a construction database for our field and office use. We use it to manage our job sites and stay organized with daily logs, submittals, journals, etc. It is used throughout the entire company from the executive team to the office to the field team. It is a helpful way to stay organized and keep accountability for each subcontractor. In construction, organization is key and CMiC is helpful for this.

Pros

  • Organization
  • Database is user friendly
  • Submittals and RFI log is easy to use

Cons

  • Daily log journals
  • Installing pictures into the log does not work most of the time
  • CMiC mobile field app does not always work and has error messages frequently
  • The field app needs to be improved.
  • Daily logs could be adjusted to make it simplified.
  • Photo log needs to be redone so that it works on a regular basis.
I have been in contact with the CMiC team before, I have been sent to many different people to try and figure out a problem with the end result left with empty promises and unresolved issues.

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

No

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

No

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 well suited for organization in each project and keeps things such as submittals and RFI and change orders intact. Some issues are with the daily journal and the camera feature, and logging things in is not always easy. Also, the mobile field app does not always work correctly or sometimes does not work at all. There seem to be a lot of bugs that need to be worked out still.
