Once you set up project work orders and purchase orders you can release homes quickly > > **Cons**: Sometimes you have to dig and update to find information > > Very positive. I’ve used 4 home builder systems and this is my favorite ----- ### "MarkSystems - WoodFalls Development" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *8 January 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about MarkSystems is the fact that I only have 1 software that I am using for scheduling, budgets, Purchase Orders and Invoicing. Prior to MarkSystems I was working out of 3 different programs. > > **Cons**: What I like least about MarkSystems (More of an ITK issue) is that the VPO's are not able to be emailed to vendors. Most of our vendors are not sitting at a desk so an email on their phone would be beneficial to speed up orders and processes. > > All information is real time on MarkSystems. This makes our Purchasing and accounting run and function smoothly. ----- ### "Works System Ever" — 1.0/5 > **Robert** | *22 September 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: The only thing remotely functional about ECI MarkSystems is the ITK Scheduling Calendar which makes it easier for supervisors to check off when work is done. > > **Cons**: The accounting software is horrendous. The implementation was done incorrectly but they refuse to admit this. Even the accountants that we have on retainer for monthly service can't figure out how to use this system. Just to get a current cash balance takes 10 minutes. It's also crazy that the screen for this system only takes up 1/2 of the computer screen. It doesn't have the ability to maximize itself so be prepared to use glasses at all times. > > We have used this software for 3 years and we have lost two accounting people because they hate it so much. ----- ### "Enterprise Software that Scales as you Grow" — 4.0/5 > **Aaron** | *13 January 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Cloud based. Completely integrated builder software. Customization. Online portal for inside and outside users. Ensure strengths of internal controls. Complex internal cost tracking system. > > **Cons**: Does not have metrics or dashboards included that can help management. Some of the interfaces for entering data are slow and a little encumbering to use. > > Growth is very important to our company and this software has allowed us to grow beyond our previous software solution. We are continuing to grow and the software will scale with us, but as we grow our needs are expanding as well. Mark Systems will have to continue improving it's ability for management to have visibility into it's data for it stay relevant for us. ----- ### Review — 4.5/5 > **Tom** | *21 June 2011* > > We are a small home builder in a small market. Prior to the recession we built an average of 20 homes per year. We wanted to grow within our market and expand into other markets. Over the years we had been running our business with a combination of different software for CRM, scheduling, accounting (Including purchase orders), selections and warranties. We looked at enterprise systems before and didn’t feel like we as a company were ready for one. In 2010 we decided the timing was right. After a very thorough investigation and selection process we selected IHMS from Mark Systems. IHMS was designed as a single database system which we believed was beneficial. It had been around long enough to have a good track record and most importantly, it was designed as an enterprise system for home building. It was not a product for commercial construction adapted to try to fit home building. Occasionally the decisions we make turn out to be spot on. We believe that we chose the right system and we also allocated enough resources during implementation to get the conversion done effectively. We brought in temporary help in terms of expertise and extra labor to assist our own team members. This helped keep to our project schedule while keeping the day to day business going. The system itself is very well thought out. It is obvious that Mark Systems has incorporated feedback from the users to create a robust system. Seldom is there functionality that we need that the system doesn’t provide. Sometimes we had to adapt to a different way than we were used to, but we also learned new and better practices by having to conform. We knew that a fully integrated enterprise system would require a disciplined approach to running our business and that turned out to be almost accurate. The discipline required far exceeded what we expected. However, far from being a bad thing, the structure and discipline required to use an integrated system like IHMS has made us a better company. We now spend much more time in planning and preparation than in correcting errors in the field. We are on track to close 71 homes this year and having a single system has helped us significantly. Mark Systems has been a pleasure to work with. They are very helpful and responsive to issues that come up. When we call real people answer the phone. In the year that we've been operational we have created strong relationships with many of the Mark Systems team members. All in all we believe that we made the right choice in both the timing of moving to an enterprise system and in choosing IHMS from Mark Systems. I would make the same choice today. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/384972/eci-marksystems?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/384972/eci-marksystems) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
