Overall Satisfaction with Procore

Our entire organization uses Procore, from administration, estimating, project management, and field staff.
My area is field supervision and our foremen enjoy having up to date drawings. I use it to aid communication between field staff and the PM.
  • The learning curve to use Procore is short. Learning complex systems that don’t directly improve production are a very tough sell to implement throughout. Procore is quick to learn, therefore very welcomed by staff.
  • Layout is easier using an iPad with Procore as opposed to flipping large drawings back and forth, especially while battling the wind.
  • Snapping a picture and pinning it to the precise location on the plan makes problem resolution much quicker. Procore makes this easy.
  • Being able to use one interface for all aspects from contract to submit talks to communication through punch list is vastly superior to learning 3-4 different tech systems as some of our large CMs use.
  • Procore is a tool and like all good tools they need to be kept in “good repair”. I.E. documents/ information must be uploaded consistently. As they say “garbage in, garbage out”
Others were fine but limited. Procore is wholly integrated.
Dimensional questions are easily resolved when laying out through the photo publishing feature.
Punch lists are easily tracked and communicated to all involved
  • It has increased my efficiency and ability to easily communicate to others off site
  • Ensure information is accessible and up to date
  • Document job site conditions
Some of our tech challenged staff have adapted rapidly to Procore and its features that pertain to their task.
When we are the prime contractor and when working with CMs that use Procore, it is a great tool. When working with CMs that utilize other programs, using Procore internally becomes redundant.
