Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

We use CMIC to integrate our accounting and construction management operations.
  • Tracks contracts and change orders.
  • Tracks owner changer orders.
  • Supports monthly billing using AIA type documents.
  • The platform is large so operation is pretty slow.
  • Field management (daily reports, material tracking) is a little bulky and hard to use.
  • Invoicing can be a little glitchy.
  • Improved cost tracking.
  • Improved information used in estimating.
  • Real time project profitability tracking.

CMiC Construction Platform Support

Questions are always answered, however, not always in a timely manner. Responses sometimes take 24 to 48 hours, and while this may seem fast, when the issue is in regards to a payment due the next day, it can be an issue.
