Description

National Estimator Cloud allows you to create cost estimates directly from your web browser, featuring ten Craftsman cost databases. The accuracy of these estimates is limited by the fact that the estimators who compiled the figures lack knowledge of your subcontractors, suppliers, project plans, specifications, applicable building codes, and your workforce. It is important to note that we do not guarantee that construction will adhere to these prices, as no universal cost applies to every job. Effective estimates are tailored specifically to individual projects and contractors, relying on sound judgment, thorough analysis, and extensive experience. You can consider National Estimator Cloud as a valuable tool for forming a well-informed view of costs associated with your projects. This web-based platform eliminates the need for any downloads or discs, making it accessible from virtually anywhere. Additionally, National Estimator Cloud monitors completed and billed work as well as outstanding tasks that are yet to be billed, providing a comprehensive overview of project progress. For financial tracking, QuickBooks complements this by managing payments made and amounts still owed, allowing you to easily compare job costs against revenue. Ultimately, combining both tools enhances your ability to manage project finances effectively and make informed decisions.

Description

PLEXXIS is a subcontractor solution uniting project management, accounting, estimating, takeoff and mobile apps on a single tech stack. Plexxis also provides 100% in-house implementation and support services and PLAIN LANGUAGE agreements that PROTECT SUBCONTRACTORS FROM; 1) UNFAIR SUBSCRIPTIONS: Lack of transparency of total cost to onboard, and/or misrepresentation of products and services while failing to provide fair options for cancellation. 2) CLOUD CUFFING: When software vendors charge license or subscription fees BEFORE the client is LIVE while also keeping client data hostage in order to extort additional payments. 3) SMOKE STACKING: When software vendors oversell the level of integration of products in a tech stack. 4) OVERAGES: When software vendor provides just service rates and non-committal plan or suggested cost to onboard in a way that sets the client up for change orders
