Procore review

Procore ranks first because it covers more of a general contractor's day than any other product here, and it does so without charging per seat. The project management product handles RFIs and submittals with automated tracking and standardized logs, links RFIs to drawings, names and hyperlinks drawing sheets automatically, and stores specifications and documents without a data cap. In the field, crews sync photos and markups and log GPS-stamped daily logs and timecards, while the office tracks labor and commitments against the budget and manages change orders as they come in. Scheduling ties tasks to daily logs and RFIs and produces look-ahead reports for crew planning. The trade-off is cost transparency: Procore charges an upfront annual fee per product based on the dollar value of the work you run through it, so you need a quote. Smaller residential builders will likely pay for more than they use.

Who it is for
