Overall Satisfaction with PlanGrid

I have been responded to and answered in a timely manner for each occasion of have reached out to support.
We use PlanGrid to estimate projects. PlanGrid allows us to quickly review the drawings for a quicker and accurate understanding of the scope of work. We also use it for project management once we have a contract on a project. This allows for communication within our company, RFI's with the engineer, owner and pertinent information in the field.
  • One of the best features is being able to hyperlink from a section drawing to a specific detail on another sheet. This is done by clicking on the detail and hyper linking to the specific detail.
  • We are able to keep records of all revised drawings on a project to track changes based on changes to a specific drawing.
  • While setting up the drawings, we can only use the drawings pertinent to our trade so the field can effortless look at information only viable to them for effective understanding of the scope.
  • PlanGrid would be more helpful if it had additional places to store documents related to the project but not just related to the drawings allowing a more complete management tool.
  • Saves time by employees comprehending the project in faster time.
  • Mobile access for the field versus paper drawings are desktop application.
I have not seen anything that compares to this product.
PlanGrid is most suited for anyone that requires quick evaluation of a set of drawings. PlanGrid will speed up the review time allowing more time spent on comprehending the drawings versus scrolling from page to page.
