PlanHub Pros and Cons

Easy to use, when I open up my dashboard, all of the information regarding my bid is that there and I can get in and get out quickly. I struggle tremendously with another competitors version that is a paid version. I get very limited results from them and it is a shame. i won't make that mistake again next year.

the paid for full version is expensive for new start up and unfortunatley I only have limited access because I am using the free version. Coverage is the greatest weakness to any contractor and I still find myself scrambling to fill in the blanks at bid time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PlanHub automatically finds bidders for me without my need to individually vet or select them. I just add the trades and PlanHub does the work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The plans room. It's not possible to create nested folders, so all files are "plans", "addenda", etc. I can't separate Addendum 1 from Addendum 2. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Filter option!

The ability to filter out the Bids that I am not interested in is vital for the continued high-volume usage of this program!

Without it I wouldn't be able to use Planhub properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't go as far as to label my response a 'Dislike' but rather a suggestion.

The formatting is simple, but I feel more could be done with the interface through the emails that come in and the ability to send an RFI to the corresponding party you are looking for, through those emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The part I like about PlanHub is that it gives all the tools you need to find a project in one click. Not only that, but it sends a daily reminder about the due dates for each project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my opinion, there is nothing I dislike. However, I have heard from friends that they do not like receiving several emails from PlanHub (reminders) in a single day. In the end, those are things that you get used to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's ease of use and navigation. Incredible ability to connect you with the best line of subcontractors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The yearly subscription can be a turn off. But the features that come with it make the difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PlanHub allows for my firm to find opportunities and build connections with GCs all over the country. The platform is super easy to use and is paramount to the success my firm is having. We cannot recommend PlanHub enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are communication issues with the GCs we bid to, though that is less on PlanHub. It would be more helpful to see bid award status' automatically, but that being said my complaints are minor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The take-off function is very nice. Especially helpful when there are multiple items that need measure. For the odd angles, simply holding down spacebar allows any angle for measuring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The sq ft of projects and the scope was at one time in the emails which were somewhat helpful in that if the job was not relavant it could easily be skipped over rather than going to the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most helpful thing that I like about Planhub is that they send you emails regularly of different jobs that fit any specific criteria, very helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not easy to switch your account type if you choose the wrong one when setting up your account, so choose wisely! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a wide coverage which helps to get you the right amount of subs on a project. It also has a easy to use dashboard to manage your projects together. It's cheaper as compared to other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think it's tough to access subcontractors who are really small and can't afford to pay for planhub. I think for the subs it should be free of cost to get more coverage to the GC's Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like most that I have received great responses from sub-contractors looking for work. I have been able to add many to my bid list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't dislike anything. They continue to improve and update constantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
