The tools for figuring out costs, keeping track of budgets are great. It feels safe, is a great value for money, and the customer service is always helpful and quick to respond. > > **Cons**: It can be a little annoying when making reports takes a few extra clicks and some small problems happen from time to time. > > Overall, I've had a great time with Buildxact. It helps you keep track of your projects, estimates and budgets, and makes them easier to deal with. The features are easy to understand, the platform feels safe, and there is always someone available to help with customer service.

Good/basic programs can be developed and easily shared with clients/stakeholders, easy however basic site diary entries can be entered in. Conversion of Estimates to Jobs is easy. Sending off quote requests is easy, creating PO's is easy and ties back to actuals for overall job financial analysis. Back end P\&L reviews and easy viewing of where costings can be tightened up, or lacked. ----- ### "Great allround tool for Estimating & Scheduling" — 5.0/5 > **Chris** | *3 May 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Take Off tools and being able to bring estimates across to actual jobs \& cost tracking with the invoice functions > > **Cons**: Not being able to move items into different categories, take off not readily available once job marked as won ----- ### "Immakulate Constructions" — 3.0/5 > **Amos** | *31 August 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the Scheduling. The new update has allowed us to move timeframes far easier. I also like templating previous quotes. > > **Cons**: I dont like the predictive quantities that come up in estimate costings, and the the pop up predictive descriptions. > > Its been good. It would be great to receive beeter service over the phone rather than the messaging platform. ----- ### "Easy to use and reliable" — 5.0/5 > **Toby** | *27 March 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to use and doesn't take long to teach new employees how to use it. It is also very reliable, I have only experienced 1 outage. The supplier integration is a key feature for us. Our Bunnings pricelist is hundreds of items and prices get updated automatically by our Bunnings representative. > > **Cons**: Some features are limited. For example, a "send all" button would be handy to send all purchase orders at once. Or a mass edit function to add or delete items from multiple templates in one go. > > Buildxact has been great since we moved from our old estimating software. Less glitches and easy to use. It does have a few less features but its reliability and supplier integration makes it worthwhile. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/70581/buildxact?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/70581/buildxact) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
