Overall Satisfaction with HeavyBid

Our whole organization used HeavyBid consistently throughout the life of a project. This product allowed our company to carefully track and standardize our bidding process. It also allowed us to quickly and efficiently review bids for mistakes / holes once the project was formally awarded to us.

Pros

  • Helps create accurate bids
  • Easily reviewed for mistakes
  • Easy to use and complete accurate take offs in

Cons

  • Ease to export to Excel
  • Ease to attach other docs to bid
  • Integration with other programs
  • Helped with winning more projects
  • Escalation features is a time saver
  • Advance calculations help me have confidence in my bids
I have used Procore in multiple scenarios and enjoy the project. HeavyBid is great for civil / underground companies as it is geared towards those sectors. Procore is great for general contractors.
Obviously HeavyBid is best suited for an underground contractor. I don't believe it would be incredibly helpful for a general contractor. It is easy to use and even easier to learn. I appreciate all of the options and functionality of the program.
