Top Rated SKYSITE Alternatives
Can view and mark up plans. Can share with all team members of a project (architect, project manager, subcontractors). The generated punch list report is great for finishing out a project with everyone on the same page. Very beneficial to be able to load other pdf files in project folders.

I wish that the submittal aspect was easier to use with other team members who aren't users on Skysite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to favorite projects so that you have a way to hide inactive projects without deleting the files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When going to download a plan set, you need to have loaded the thumbnail previews or it won't download "all" of the files in a folder. Only way to achieve that is go up a folder level and select the folder and download it that way. Slow and unresponsive when trying to scroll down to the last files in a folder. You get shown 50 thumbnails at a time and they often take minutes to show the next set.. We often have a couple hundred files in a folder and if you want to access a specific file that is at the end of the list, it is actually quicker to just download the whole set from the hierarchy above the one you are looking in, and then navigate to the page you need via windows explorer.
First thing I do when we have an approved set of plans is go to skysite and download them all on to my desktop so that I never have to go back on skysite again for that plan set. That means it ends up taking a huge chunk of hard drive space for something that is already saved on a cloud.. but it just takes so long to access anything you actually want that there is no other alternative.

It is very easy to use, I provide the ability to group files or folders, synchronization is automatic, the hyperlink also and powerful search help locate the information quickly and easily. Once loaded the files into the system are available and are fully downloadable. It has many features that are usable and I can work on the fly, my team can coordinate and collaborate better, and everyone can work from the current set of documents.

For inexperienced users the learning curve would be somewhat confusing, and I could verify that it slows down a little when opening certain types of documents such as Pdf and videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We used to be company that worked with paper, which was very time consuming and in how fast construction drawings change during a project, not feasible, since we have changed to sky site there are less field errors, and everyone is on the same page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The main problem I have had is with syncing the app with ipads, there was a recurring issue with the app crashing. Sky site has been very good about quickly solving these issues, they have fantastic customer service, more so than the competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SKYSITE is easy to created organized folders and share files with clients, colleagues, and consultants. I can also see all the work out company produces and I can easily search for what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only negative aspect I've currently experienced it that the files don't override and automatically replace old files. I would like to have this reviewed and see if there are any remedies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the most the way the system maintains accurate account of what is uploaded & downloaded for the live of the project. I also like the recognition system for indexing sheets have come a long way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not having a smartphone app that could allow me to forward drawings to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You are able to send large files quickly, through the send file option. This eliminates adding a person to a group or file, then sharing with them the file that you want to share. I like the graphics, the easy use buttons and simplicity of the software. Staff is very helpful and attentive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Indexing, it should be better explained or changed. I used the software for almost 1 year without knowing what it was or the purpose. I have not found any other thing that I have not liked, the program is amazing and the upload speeds and download speeds along with the notifications are amazing.

The ability to access all files under the same platform is key for us, been able to track progress and historical data on the project comes handy when dealing with multiple directives/ASI etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the speed to go from one file to the other can be improved, we are in a high pace environment that needs the tools that correlate with this demand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of creating project specific folders and being able to quickly send document links to our clientele. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only dislike I have is that our clients are not the most punctual in downloading what we send to them. As such, the links tend to expire to quickly. I would like to see a default setting of the links being active for longer, maybe 2 months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
