It is so much easier to see exactly where we are in the process of collecting closeout documents with Buildr. No more tedious excel spreadsheets to track progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven't found a feature yet that I don't like. However, the price seemed a bit high for the number of projects we will use it for this year. I could see the value in it, and was able to convince my Executives of the value. But, it is a bit pricey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Buildr has increased the response time for collecting documentation from our subs by 500%+. Instead of waiting weeks for subs to gather documents, upload them to a file sharing service, we get them in hours. The new process has also eliminated manual tracking in spreadsheets, accounting and project team disconnect on compliance and overall headaches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be great for the communication to our subcontractors to be more customized/styled, but it at least gets the message across. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that I can set this up and let the website do all of the heavy lifting of sending reminder emails and organizing. This is something I am recommending to everyone. Even the end users/clients have complimented how easy it is to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that this is not industry standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Builder does the tracking and follow ups for you so you can spend time doing other things. Also if you're using Procore, it makes Buildr very quick to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you're not using Procore, it takes a bit more time to set everything up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The simplicity, accessibility, and controls in the system have drastically improved the closeout process for us, the General Contractor and our Subcontractors. It has saved us a lot of time at each stop from building the closeout requirements, requesting, reviewing, and creating a consistent, well built final product for our clients. The reporting function creates clear communication and clarity regarding the status of items. The warranty system has improved communication and collaboration on warranty items in a shared location. The warranty reporting statistics have helped drive training and supported new best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a young system that continues to learn and add new features. The good news is their customer service is fantastic. Their goals is to listen to the end user and create a system that works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
BUILDR helps us streamline the closeout/warranty process by making it user friendly for all parties! Typically Trade Partners resist using new GC owned platforms but with BUILDR, the process is so simplified that we've received very little push back on our usage. The integration with Procore streamlines the spec, submittal requirements and directory import; whereas the "sync" button allows us to source our As-Build drawing package and RFI, photos, submittals archives for the Owners use in the future. The best part, it packages all of these items with a click of one button and produces a fully hyper-linked package that we are proud to provide our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As the Construction Technology Implementation & Adoption Manager at Big-D Construction, I dislike the fact that BUILDR is so great that it was VERY hard for us to keep our deployment of the tool to just a couple of projects; so that we had time to create our standard operating procedures. In under five months, we've already run 40+ jobs through the closeout phase. It is by far one of the easiest tools I've been tasked to sell to our staff, simply because it makes this process so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to be compiling an active closeout documentation package for our teams using Buildr has been absolutely stellar. Each team is blown away by the ease of use, but mostly the countless hours reduced for creating project closeouts. Typically, it can take anywhere from a week to a few months of hunting down information and formatting it into an easily consumable format for the customer, but with Buildr, that process is down to a matter of hours. The end product is a beautifully linked document that takes no training for our clients to use. We are now using Buildr on all of our projects moving forward and we thank Caleb and his team for the continued direct support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We had wished there was a way to segment out certain modules for export (in case a client only wanted to see RFIs. etc). The team over at Buildr heard our wish, and the techno-genies over there granted it within a week of discussion! The communication with their team has been absolutely stellar and their customer service is second to none. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Buildr notifies the subcontractors that they have documents they need to submit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to be able to send out multiple requirements to multiple subcontractors at once rather than individually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The way Buildr syncs with Procore to pull documents, vendors, and submittals in an organized way and then uses all of the information to create a completely offline, deep-hyperlinked PDF that is an all encompassing closeout package for our clients. It saves our people time and lessens the administrative burden. It's helpful to be able to track the status of document requests, see the conversations and feedback from our vendors within the platform, and have an overall view of where closeout stands for each project. Starting closeout at the beginning of the project, using Buildr, demonstrates the importance of setting of Procore correctly at the beginning to have a better closeout at the end, and project organization throughout.

Document request feature is helpful when collecting documents outside of or in addition to Procore. It could be improved by allowing the sender (us) the option to be cc'd on the e-mail as proof of delivery/sending. Sometimes vendors said they never received the requests from Buildr and we would like to be able to have the ability to see that we were on the e-mail and that it was sent to the right person and point them to the time it should have been received so we can tell them to check their spam and be confident that it was delivered.
