Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Tried it for a short time for project management. We are primarily a structural steel fabricator and found that it is not as usefull for our needs as anticipated. This is more for general contractors and would be usefull for coordinating with multiple subcontractors and large projects. We are still looking for something that would suit our needs in a better capacity.

Likelihood to Recommend

Trimble ProjectSight (Prolog) is VERY usefull in a general contractor role. It has all the features, tracking, and financial coordination necessary for a general contractor. However, it is not beneficial for single spec use without the general contractor using this same software. We are primarily a structural steel fabricator and find it too combersome and over-powered for our use.

Trimble ProjectSight (Prolog) is great for General Contractors. Not so great for structural steel fabricators
