User Friendly

What do you like best? The app on the ipad is easy to use and using the desktop for setup is easy to navigate as well. What do you dislike? You can't just share the link for viewing unless the other party has a subscribed/paid account with plangrid and not everyone has it. Also, I did have an issue with the program recognizing the plan sheets since the Architect/Engineer using a naming convention that was fairly long. My Team and myself will have to manually check each sheet everytime to ...

Helps keep everything in sync

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I love PlanGrid's ability to document and report from a single platform, available through the cloud anywhere and in the various devices we use. What aspects are problematic or could work better? It lacks direct interaction or integration with other products it teams well with. A bit of additional integration can result in increased time savings. Slow speed when syncing between devices can also be an issue if a project has a large ...

Saves time and money while easily make edits for documents

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? PlanGrid is very fast and easy to make edits, upload ASI's and PR's and make annotations for trades to view. I can make links to important documents like RFI's, ensuring us that we provide the newest versions of the drawings while keeping track of the changes made. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The web view could use a full screen view of the drawings. On my 27" monitor it takes up a small space. I would also ...

PlanGrid Review - 9 out of 10

What do you like best? An awesome way to measure a job site and have all your information in one spot. What do you dislike? Fairly expensive.

Recommendations to others considering the product Make sure that it is being used properly and frequently, or else it is not worth the cost. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Minimizing site visits an ...

Fast and easy to get information between the office and the field

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? PlanGrid lets even our guys in the field access the most up to date information without the need for them to need an internet connections, flag areas for RFI and link RFIs to drawings, speeding up the process of posting revisions and makes it simple for everyone. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The office side is lacking right now. The RFI and Submittal process is very basic and generally doesn't cover my needs. ...

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I can use this program up on any device, anywhere, with all of the tools I need to easily pull up the plans on a job site. It's very simple to make notes, send out RFIs, take pictures and share items with other users. I can even download the plans to my device so I can access it even without a good internet connection. What aspects are problematic or could work better? My only issue with this is the recently updated price point. I ...

Very easy to use, but a little pricey if you are in a small company

What do you like best? I like how you can assign task to specific people in your company, ability to make mark ups on drawings, report submission is a nice feature too. It is very much mobile friendly and is great for those that use tablets in the field. What do you dislike? I was a little frustrated uploading my own templates to reports because it only accepts pdf formats. I also thing for how developed the mobile and tabloid versions are they should allow to sink with your current ...

Easy to use and collaborate with contractors and owners

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? PlanGrid's Issues feature is bar none the easiest and most user friendly punch list generator on the market. The mark-up feature is very easy to use as well. We can collaborate with teams that are not in the same geographical region in real time even while on the phone. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The only way to handle submittals for a project is with "workarounds". It can be done but requires a little more ...
