Use Cases and Deployment Scope

CMiC is being used across our whole organization. We build custom homes and we've found CMiC to be a great tool for our project management team to manage their jobs as well as our accounting team to work seamlessly between the two modules. We jumped in before we really knew what this software was capable of and before we really knew what we wanted. There's been a little bit of a learning curve over the last year, but we're very happy with it and still researching/implementing new modules, which is very exciting.

Return on Investment

Improved Accuracy
Budget reflecting real-time

Alternatives Considered

Buildsoft Global

CMiC is 1 million steps above what we used previously, Buildsoft. Granted, the software was 20+ years old. There was much room for improvement.

Support Rating

The support team is pretty quick in their response times. However, on one specific item we need for our business to run even smoother, we've somewhat stumped the support team and brought our issue up the ladder to programming in which it's been sitting with for the last 7 months.

Likelihood to Recommend

CMiC Construction Platform has worked great for managing our projects. We have the ability to input all issues, changes, and requests for information all within the same platform while managing to a budget. On the accounting side, we can input the invoices from images in uploaded into the system, send them to the Project Managers for coding, and immediately have the invoices adjust the budget by the way it was coded. It's real-time which is fabulous.

We have found that the drawing management isn't quite what we hoped it would be for markups on plans. However, I know there have been recent updates we have not taken advantage of that could have fixed all of this.
