Procore - A Great Project Management Tool

I use Procore on a daily basis for all of my cost management, RFI, Submittal, company directory, and document [management] needs. It is an easy-to-use platform that allows me to have everything in one place and have the ability to access documents both online and offline. It helps me solve problems when questions arise in the field as it easily allows me to upload and document questions and answers for RFI's. It also helps organize and move along the submittal process as it presents a platform for subcontractors to upload submittals, the PM to review, and design professionals to review submittals. Procore also helps me track all cost events that a construction job occurs, both planned and unplanned. You can easily track cost events and create change orders in Procore and easily update your budget/job cost accordingly. Procore also has an easy-to-use [a] directory that allows me to keep track of all contact info for a certain job as well as create a directory for future use. Procore is a great platform that holds all of the information I described above in one place that is easily accessible, user-friendly, and a vital tool to my company. I highly recommend.

We have integrated Procore with Timberscan our ERP software where all costs of the construction job are tracked for our company. It allows us to easily transfer the information over to Procore. We then use the budget tool to be able to view/analyze/manipulate our cost side of things directly in Procore.

It is much easier to go into Procore and update daily logs for each day. Our old way involved filling our papers and scanning them into a folder which was then never easy to look back at. Now you can file the daily log reports and easily go back and review the info.

We have began to standardize processes within our company or create Standard Operating Procedures. Now that we have 1 platform that contains just about all of our daily operations, it is easy to train new employees to use Procore for everything. This has enabled us to produce the same or higher quality work more efficiently.

Again, please refer to my previous response in this section. I was not involved specifically in the selection process of Procore and therefore cannot provide an accurate response to this specific question that was asked in this section. Hypothetically speaking, I would want to have a presentation from a group of Procore experts showing me what Procore offered as well as a few days of more in-depth exploration of the software if I was tasked with that decision.

It was easy to learn without training. Luckily we set up a group of individuals who got the in person training and therefore could help the rest of the group learn Procore. But overall, learning Procore was relatively easy. There were tons of tutorials, videos, and articles to reference that made learning easier.

I do not have any specific recommendations or best practices for configuring Procore. Unfortunately I have not had much experience with this issue and to be honest the wording/questioning of this question is a bit confusing for me, so my response may not be accurate for this specific question.

I have not done any additional customization or configuration in using the Procore software platform. Therefore I am unable to provide an accurate response to this specific question that is being asked. There is nothing further on this issue that I wish to mention. Sorry that I cannot provide more input, but this is something I was not involved with.

I was not involved with this process but I do not believe that the specific company in which I am employed purchased the premium support to which this question is referring to. However we have dedicated information technology employees who are able to assist us with our questions and help get answers when they do not know the specific answer. So it was not worth the money.

Procore provided me with exceptional support a time in which I was trying to figure out a different way to import a large amount of submittal information to create a submittal log all at once, rather than creating each submittal separately. I reached out to the chat function and talked with Pepper who responded immediately and was able to help me figure it out in minutes. Saved me hours of work.

I have not substantially been involved with the integration of other technologies into Procore and therefore do not believe that I am able to give an adequate response to this question that is presented. A member of our company's information technology department would be better suited to answer this question.

I was not involved with the process or purchasing Procore and therefore am not able to provide an accurate response to the question which is being asked here. I am not aware of what the principle terms were that my company was able to negotiate during the sales process. Sorry.

Again, as previously mentioned, I was not directly involved with the sales process and therefore do not beleive that I can give an accurate response to this question being presented. However, in terms of dealing with the vendor from a communication perspective, there are email support contacts and chat options within Procore that make it easy to reach out for Procore help and responses are quick.
