Overall Satisfaction with CMiC Construction Platform

CMiC is our ERP platform to consolidate everything in one database, from the initial lead through the sales process through the final warranty in the construction process. It is also our filing and data storage system, as well as our communication platform with our external clients and business partners, all in a cloud format that allows for multiple site access, critical for the transfer of information among scattered job locations. This software helps us implement SOPs for all of our processes, and then provides insights through its measurement capacity and Business Intelligence reporting functionality.

Pros

  • Data collection & retention.
  • Management process & intuitive interfaces.
  • Robust and flexible accounting features.

Cons

  • Implementation and training process.
  • Bid management process.
  • Use of all hardware platforms (MAC and PC).
  • Positively improved workflow between teams.
  • Improved project cost tracking and profitability with the ability to capture all potential revenue.
  • Improved visibility on a company level with Business Intelligence.
  • Foundation Software
CMiC is more user friendly from a management perspective, robust in terms of the completeness of all processes - sales, management, and finance, collaborative with outside vendors and business partners, and provides better overall analytics of the data that drives our business, and is the most important to our success.

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?

No

Would you buy CMiC Construction Platform again?

Yes

This software is appropriate when you're looking for a completely integrated ERP for the construction management process—multiple projects across multiple vendors and collaborators. It is less appropriate for trade contractors who don't have the burden of managing multiple subcontracts, or multiple collaborators, and would be overkill for their typical construction process.

CMiC Construction Platform Support

We've been in implementation for over two years on their cloud product, and still don't have all aspects working properly.
