Buildertrend covers the whole residential job in one product. On the production side it offers scheduling with real-time notifications, daily logs with photos and weather, a time clock, change orders approved by electronic signature, client selections with a running total, and warranty claim management. The financial tools include takeoff, bid management, estimates, purchase orders, bills, invoices, online payments and a job costing budget that tracks projected against actual costs. A sales layer adds a CRM, proposals that convert into projects, and email marketing. Buildertrend no longer competes with CoConstruct: the CoConstruct site says its move to Buildertrend is in its final phase. Prices are not published. Buildertrend gives a custom quote after a short questionnaire and a call, includes unlimited users and projects, and takes 10% off when you pay annually upfront. We compared documented features and published prices; Buildertrend has one of the deepest residential feature sets here, but the quote-only pricing lowers its value score.

Who it is for

Home builders and remodelers running five or more projects a year who want sales, production and financials in one system.

Custom quote after a call; unlimited users and projects; 10% off when paid annually upfront.
