Overall Satisfaction with Procore
Currently we have 2 hotel projects under construction. We use Procore to coordinate drawings, specifications, documents, vendors, etc. We also have two upcoming projects (another hotel and a property improvement to our Holiday Inn) and we will also break ground on a free-standing restaurant later this year. Procore is how we keep our projects together, scheduled tasks, etc.
- We are still in the learning stages and like most programs we do not utilize all the available tools.
- We are currently learning to do the payments, budgets, etc. We really like the drawing section, the revision and the notation that you are working on the most up to date drawing available.
- Manipulating the structure of who is responsible for approvals might be helpful. We struggled with this at first.
We have not taken advantage of these features. Thus far we are keeping Procore within our architects, construction team and sub-contractors. I am not sure the sub contractors take advantage of the tools through Procore as well as they should be. We also understand each project owner may have a program that the sub must learn and many just don't have the time for that learning curve.
- We are too new to be able to provide this information. We believe we will recap a return on this investment over time, it was our sale point to the owner of our company.
- I have a better peace of mind that things can be found when I am not available to answer phone calls.
My boss has used several, including quickbase and another - I can't recall the name. I have never used a product like this. My background is not construction, it is real estate and marketing and administrative so I am more on the creation side of this product for our projects and I maintain all the systems, drawings, documents, etc.
