Overall Satisfaction with Contractor Foreman

We started out not using any software program at all. We used QuickBooks and Excel spreadsheets to track projects. While this worked for us, we wanted something to help manage our day to day activities. We also wanted something that would be a one stop shop for all of our blueprints, email exchanges, receipts, etc. We researched at least 5 different companies before deciding on Contractor Foreman.
  • Calendar
  • Ability to make extra folders for managing files
  • Easily access reports w/ a multitude of options
  • Easily track spending
  • Directory issue / sometimes searches don't produce the vendor
  • Positive impact for tracking spending
  • Easy reports to find and run

Evaluating Contractor Foreman and Competitors

  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
I compared several other options. I read reviews others wrote about Contractor Foreman before deciding. Ultimately, it came down to the exceptional (low) price and the excellent reviews on customer service (in particular,... answering questions, and being able to click on the "Live Chat" option at any time).
I wouldn't change it. I am happy with the choice we made.
