AutoBid is a powerful tool! Takeoff is very efficient and it takes little time to get new hires up and running. The on-screen takeoff has improved speed, accuracy and gives us the ability to quickly evaluate material options and look at specific sections of any job. With the assemblies we have built it becomes almost as simple as tracing lines on the drawing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest downside at this point is our companies ability to utilize a cloud server with the smart menus. The smart menus improve speed substantially and we want to continue to utilize them in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that you can easily see what piping you have taken of while in OnScreen view. Also the fact that you can filter the view by drawing, system, floor, zone, symbol, or line so you can see only what you wish to at that point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the fact that the return to previous view was disabled in the saved view section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
