Overall Satisfaction with Procore
Procore is used by our operations department primarily. It used to manage the RFI and submittal process, as well as keeping up to date plans and specs for our field staff. The software allows us to eliminate discrepancies between the office and the field, and it would say that is the main problem that it addresses.
- Submittal process
- RFI process
- Contract document management
- The distribution features could work better.
- The inspection forms could be easier to create templates of and fill out.
- Action items in meeting minutes need to be easier to organize.
I have not used other products that compare to Procore, but while talking with others who have, those who are now using Procore much prefer it compared to other products. Procore is more commonly selected due to the range of available features that come with it, as well as the pricing as compared to other platforms.
This is one of the primary reasons my company adopted the use of Procore, to share with not only internal team members but those who are external as well. We benefit from this on a daily basis, as our subcontractor's view all of the plans in the field every day using the software. Our owners also use the software for viewing submittals, RFIs, tracking payment, etc. on the jobs they are associated with.
- Procore has saved an abundance of time in preparing paperwork.
- Procore increases efficiency by being able to run reports with the click of a button.
- Some people still have not adopted the full use of Procore.
- Gain visibility into projects
- Ensure information is accessible and up to date
- Document job site conditions
- Report on incidents and inspections
- Identify job site risks
Procore helps our organization achieve these goals by our team working together to ensure all of the current information for a project is currently uploaded to Procore and available for all team members. It also helps us to document job site conditions when performing pre-construction audits, which save time and money at the end of the day.
