MY WORK LIFE HAS TOTALLY CHANGED!
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and all the ways you have to "skin the cat".
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes a required workflow can get cumbersome. Once you learn and understand how the Tools talk to each other, the logic required comes pretty easy!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the year since we onboarded Procore and integrated with Sage 300-our admin processing time for commitments, change orders and subcontractor invoicing has reduced so drastically we were able to simultaneously streamline operations workflow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't take too long to jump in. Learning as you go has been much more beneficial than a lengthy "training" time. However- you should take time to thoughtfully set up all of your templates, project default settings, etc.
Procore does everything, but does nothing well.
What do you like best about the product?
Procore has a lot of features. It does everything we need it to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
The #1 thing I need Procore to do is send clean, clear emails to the right people at the right time for Procore's core project management tools (i.e. - Drawings, Specifications, RFIs, Submittals, etc.). Have you ever tried reading the tsunami of Procore emails? It's a super-easy problem to fix: (1) Better email templates, and (2) More transparency on who gets what emails when. The "Received From"/"Responsible Contractor" is the single most important person who needs to know when someone responds to an RFI/Submittal, and they're not automatically added to the Distribution List? I have to re-enter them? When I don't have to re-enter anyone else (RFI/Submittal Manager, Assignees, etc.)? This is so counter-intuitive I have to train every new PM, and still they occasionally forget. Subs not getting RFI/Submittal responses has cost us a LOT of money. In general, Procore needs a good UI/UX team to make user interactions more intuitive, require fewer clicks, easier to read at a glance, more transparent who's getting what emails when, more intelligent auto-populating fields, etc. Procore's primary functions (and tasks performed most frequently) should be delightful user experiences. Also, please let me overlay drawings on a Windows computer without having to emulate an Android operating system. I could go on... Procore, if you're reading this, please reach out to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing drawings, specifications, RFIs, submittals, etc.
If you haven't tried Procore yet, you should!
What do you like best about the product?
The customer support is awesome. They will show you how to do anything and walk you through things.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is slow. But with theProcore status site you're able to see if they're aware of it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've worked with Procore on some upcoming things and given my opinion.
Fantastic Product for Construction Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love how intuitive the product is and how complete the coverage is. It does (almost) everything I need as a Design Manager on design-build projects. I also love that it can be used on the web, desktop, or on mobile/iPad. The ability to store/share documents, submit RFI's, review 3D models, etc. is unparalleled.
We've also recently switched to CMiC and my understanding is Procore now has the ability to integrate with that. I hope to learn more about that soon but foresee that as a big positive.

What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I can't mark up drawings within Procore. Because of this I'm still required to have Bluebeam in order to create mark-ups, V-Plans, etc. before uploading them to Procore to share with my team. However, I can overlook this based on all the other things it does.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to collaborate with my design team, subcontractors and field team all within Procore. It allows us to quickly share documents and files while working remotely. It also allows us to easily track open issues, store meeting minutes, and submit/approve RFI's and submittals. I find the ability to utilize Procore in the field on my iPad as a big plus. Pulling up or submitting RFI's while in the field and linking a picture is great. Also pulling up and viewing the 3D model while walking the site is huge. Also taking meeting minutes directly within Procore and quickly sharing them.
Good all around product
What do you like best about the product?
I like that there is so much transparency with the subcontractors/team members and that everything is accessible at all times. You do not have to wait for someone to respond to you to be able to view contract documents, like you might in traditional e-mail settings. I like having a job-specific directory available for each job and that all aspects of a project can be completed within procore. I love the live chat feature- the customer service team is phenomenal and very responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a long time to get used to and there are a lot of permission-based issues. Some items take a lot of detail / attention to perfect. I wish that there were a traditional manual for how to use it,but understand that since it is ever-changing, it cannot happen. I also don't like that ERP cannot be contacted via live chat, there are many erp issues and the delay in response is often hindering my day to day production. I do not like that you can't copy contracts, as this would be a HUGE Timesaver for many. I also wish that there was a way for admins to view a "subcontractor view," so we can ensure that our subs have proper permissions before making a project live.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing documents, meeting minute distribution, project plans are intuitive, bidding is easy. We have realized the benefit of having everything in one wheelhouse for each job.
Procore Review - from a Procore Admin's Perspective
What do you like best about the product?
I love that we can take care of business all in one location. From Preconstruction through closeout and beyond. Everything is in one spot. Also, Procore is very aggressive in adding and refining features to include any new technology.
The absolute best feature is the archive feature. Everything is preserved as a PDF. This is very helpful in providing closeout documents to clients. It is also invaluable when going back to projects that are years old. The archived files are all very logically sequenced so that it is very easy to find anything.
The customer service is absolutely the best. There is always someone you can contact through chat and they have always solved any issue that I have encountered. It's so reassuring to know that you can count on the technicians to assist in any situation. And they act as if they truly care about solving your issue.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the reporting was a little more robust but I've been spoiled in the past utilizing Crystal Reports. Procore has really ramped up its reporting abilities in the last few years however I find it frustrating that I can't go across all tools to do one report.
With the export feature in most tools I can get the information I need exported and then work with the data in Excel.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is one place for all documents or anything to do with a project. It is easy to find the information you need quickly or even five years after a project has closed. It is a very easy software to learn and use.
Procore admin user
What do you like best about the product?
I think Procore helps the end user adapt to the technology their company want to use very efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would say the downside of using Procore is the commitment to using it across all projects within a company. It would be great if Procore synced better with other programs such as newforma or pantera.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Procore is reducing the workload of our project management teams by streamlining project admin processes. Also provides cloud commmunications that were otherwise more difficult to prepare for each project.
The software that directs your constructions in a precise way is procore.
What do you like best about the product?
The digital action system worked by procore, manages technical levels of proven organizational dimensions, for the estimation of presentation controls, actions of automated technical follow-up of asset definition, incorporation's of modular origin of strategy credit formats, disposition of virtual communication adjustments of material detection spaces, incorporation's of employment of local action tools for digital transformations of enriched digital statistics, simplifications of ratified projection guidelines of coordination of metadata of fast construction condition, groupings of web monitoring of computerized administrative resources for the creation of method linking templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
These are the techniques used by the procore software, which are deficient when it comes to distributing processes of solutions for the adjustment of construction spaces enabled for the manufacture of business projects, due to the fact that their dialog boxes limit the acceptance of management tools in the main panel of this application, reducing the conduction of data estimation references in the cloud, where this failure disproportionately presents the quality of presentation of methodologies of coordination of algorithmic code administrations, throwing failures to the direct use on the part of the users, having to establish a function of innovation of profitability of programmatic integrations to regulate the amount of announcements found in this application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Controlled invoicing follow-ups for material purchase negotiations, direct request for cost reduction offers, organization of automatic work flow design projection documentation, professional construction assistant hiring margins, distribution of product purchase work fundamentals for mobile customer assistance, productivity management of traceable real estate percentages, proactive messaging programming for e-mail employment references as a manager of technical report writing and customer relations, are used in my company to finance user interaction operations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend the procore system due to its monitoring of access preparation to material negotiation dimensions, shared resource globalization approaches, selection of asset management model schemes, content management presentations, mass people entry door construction assignments, business aspect room and office dimensions, employment services for building enriched plan loads, cloud performance support tuning presentations, statistical action credits for small, medium and large business services, digitization of budget requests, planned project organization, are raised by this server.
Not Simple
What do you like best about the product?
I like the possibilities of depth that Procore has available. The amount of detail and information that can be put and shared on it. I like the search function, especially the fact that you search within the job, and not just within your account. With so many documents on each job this makes it easier and quicker to find things.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel that the notifications I get are so lengthy and wordy because they always list out all the recipients before the actual topic of the notification. I think it would be more efficient to either omit all of the recipients in the notification, OR put the topic/content of the notification before the list of recipients. It's hard as the reader to determine what the notification is even for at a quick glance. I have found it necessary at multiple points to separately email the other contractors in order to determine what was being asked of me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems that get solved is sharing large files that are unable to go through emails. Also, everyone working on a job having access to the documents is important so someone doesn't have to constantly be sending the documents out to people, instead, the workers just have access to what they need when they need it. I also like that notifications are sent out to contractors on the team, although I think those notifications can improve, I like the function in general.

deletion of a record from procore and having an API while integration is difficult to integrate because we don't know the deleted record.
