Overall Satisfaction with Procore
TerWisscha Construction is a General Contractor in the veterinary space that enhances lives through structure. Procore is a big part of who we are and what we do, as it helps us enhance our work, structure our proven process, and positively improve the lives of our clients as we help them realize their dream. Procore allows us to track and manage our projects in real-time with consistent, structured, and meaningful communication. Problem on the job site arises? Our superintendents can document the issue, provide details, snap pictures, and notify the home office within moments. Processes that used to take hours or even days to solve are now resolved within minutes and even seconds. Everything is captured and stored in one spot, granting our company a single source of truth for any and all information regarding our jobs. It houses our documents, punch list, change orders, invoices, drawings, RFIs, submittals, contracts, and so much more. Procore really is a no-brainer in the construction world now.
- Captures historical data - Procore captures everything that's created, approved, edited, and even deleted so you can have access to a complete history of actions taken on items across your jobs. Having your historical data stored is so incredibly powerful and helpful.
- Consistency! - Every project uses the same tools and structures. You have a one-stop-shop for everything you need. You can set up custom workflows if you want, and Procore's default ones are awesome too. Consistency is key to maintaining integrity in your work, and Procore provides this effortlessly!
- All-around support! Procore doesn't just give you the tools and say "Good Luck!". They literally have an army of people willing to jump in and help you and your company succeed. Your account manager is always ready and willing to help, you can submit feedback at any time for any item or tool and they have a dedicated team that looks into that, and their support staff is outstanding!
- While the support is amazing, the learning curve to grasp Procore is still pretty large. I do wish Procore was a little more user-friendly for first-time users - I think the UI could be a bit more intuitive. But once you get the hang of it, it truly is very easy to use!
- Procore likes to release new features that are flashy and truly amazing. Always excited to see those! But sometimes I wish they would spend more time improving and perfecting what is already in place. Polish the older tools that have been around for a while.
- I would easily say that Procore saves us HOURS of time. Creating change orders, invoices, RFIs, submittals, punch list items.
- I would also say that Procore is a great CYA tool as well. The fact that it tracks everything and stores your information effortlessly - if we need to access that information, it's at our fingertips, so we are always covered!
Currently, our integrations with Procore include Sage and Levelset. Procore is amazing, but I think they have the right idea of focusing on what they do best and then partnering with other companies to help fill in any gaps that are specific to each client. We have used Sage for years, so the fact that Procore can seamlessly integrate with that makes our lives SO MUCH EASIER. We also used to track lien waivers by using a spreadsheet and paper copies. Integrating Levelset with Procore for waivers saves hours of time. Our waivers are now electronic, and our project and invoices flow into Levelset so we can easily generate electronic waivers.
Daily Logs can be completed now within minutes. The nice part about having Procore right on your phone is that you can take pictures throughout the day and fill out your logs on the go, in real-time!
