Construction Management software for SMBs
4.6/5 (10 Bewertungen)BuildingBlok is a cloud based construction management software designed for small and midsize companies in the construction industry. The software offers document management, bidding management and project management capabilities within a single solution.

The payment application of the software allows users to send contracts to the subcontractors, build the SOV’s and submit their payments online. Users can also define the approval process for their contract payments before making the payments.
The software offers comprehensive workforce management which allows users to track and monitor labor hours to efficiently calculate labor costs and manage project deadlines. The project management functionality allows the managers to define their flow of work and create task lists to execute and monitor their workflow.

Vorteile
It was easy to use and allowed for workflow transparency across multiple facets of the project. The administrators could easily track how items were progressing through the approval chain for existing projects and subcontractors could easily access documents for prospective projects.
Nachteile
The project setup was rather cumbersome and would sometimes delay initial entry of the project. A new project required entry of the contract and subcontract information and was duplicative for our company due the use of an existing accounting system. Also, we had some difficulty with the management of the approval chain process itself. Some approval aspects just couldn't be linear.
Vorteile
My project is tracked with Building Blok. I like that subs can view all the project documents on the site, submit change order requests and pay apps. It's been a great system and I can't image doing commercial projects without it.
Nachteile
Getting small subcontractors to use Building Blok is the only challenge. I will say that when I have a contractor resisting getting logged in, I just call Building Blok and they take them step by step to get them in the system.
Vorteile
It's easy to use, and it was very affordable. They have great customer support.
We were new to file sharing programs like this, and this did allow us to understand the pros and cons of using such a system, while not spending a lot of money.
Nachteile
I get the feeling that we were at the early stages of the product development. So, we ran into a few more problems using it than I thought we would. But again, all issues were resolved immediately.
Vorteile
Trying to run a construction project is like juggling. BuildingBlok is like having an extra set of hands.
Nachteile
It works best when all or most of the stakeholders are involved.
Vorteile
I like the ability to store all our documents in one place and to have direct access to all clients and subs related to a project under one umbrella. The support we receive on how to use and make corrections on this system is great. A phone call or email requesting help or advice is returned within 30 mins.
Nachteile
Nothing. Everything is right there at the touch of a button.
