Initial set-up is easy and you are away\! > > **Cons**: I would love to see an auto count function developed in the future, I feel this is the only thing i want for. > > Groundplan is more than a software program, it's backed by an energetic team that know their product and work diligently to ensure you get the most out of the program\! ----- ### "Almost 1-year and loving Groundplan." — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *27 February 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Makes estimating of any kind faster and reduces the chance of errors in calculations. Phenomenal live chat for support with anything. > > **Cons**: I don't have anything. I only have a couple suggestions such as being able to save the overlay as a new plan after using the compare feature and perhaps showing totals from each stage and grand total when exporting (could be possible and I just haven't figured it out yet). > > Excellent\! Game changer for estimating sprinkler and fire protection work. I even use it for quoting service work and deficiencies where there are no drawings - it is better than any spreadsheet I have used for adding costs, mark-ups, labor, etc. ----- ### "Getting there with some help\!" — 4.0/5 > **Nick** | *21 April 2026* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its integration with Simpro and the tech support. I also like that the support is really accessible but also, they are so knowledgeable and happy to help. > > **Cons**: look I'm still figuring it out but every time I use it, I learn something more. There's nothing to dislike I just don't know enough yet. > > Great. Like I'm said I'm still learning the software, and I want to integrate it more into my day-to-day work not just for projects. ----- ### "Groundplan's ease of use" — 4.0/5 > **Ambien** | *27 March 2023* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use. Without consulting the help guide it's easy to work out how to use the progream.But the help guide is extremely helpful \& easy to follow when needed. > > **Cons**: A multi coloured eraser tool would be good for the times when the plan has different colours.The ability to hide quantities on the pdf print of a plan legend.There is always room for more icons. > > We are now using Groundplan with our technicians when they are counting items for a residential fit off. We believe it will lead to a more accurate count which will mean less return trips do to forgotten fit off items. ----- ### "Solid Estimating Power" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *28 May 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The pricing for Groundplan is attractive. Ultimately, we went with another solution, but overall, I was impressed with the features of Groundplan. > > **Cons**: I wasn't keen on the way that Groundplan managed drawings and different scales for the drawings. It also lacked a toolbox for standard, repeatable measurements. > > Overall, I liked Groundplan and it was very nearly selected as our solution for estimating. The support is top notch too, but ultimately, we went with another provider. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/69561/groundplan?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/69561/groundplan) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
