> ControlBoard® is a real-time project scheduling and resource management software system for the Commercial Construction industry. Offered by Congistics Corporation, it takes the idea of planning using a white board and allows it to be done electronically via a set of networked PC’s, smartphone, tablets, and the cloud, across an organization. Business rules, work flow and intra/inter-department collaboration can now be accomplished as part of managing the project.&#10;&#10;&#10;ControlBoard combines the process of planning, scheduling, dispatching and managing resources assigned to jobs. Users can create weekly or monthly look-ahead schedules without the need to use a whiteboard to plan projects. Since it is a multi-user system, schedules can be created and shared across the entire enterprise. Resources can be allocated to jobs, equipment moves can be scheduled, and tasks can be dispatched to the proper people in one integrated system.&#10;&#10;&#10;ControlBoard was created after carefully studying the business processes of fast paced construction companies moving million dollar assets in real time.

> **Jerome** | *17 January 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Control Board is able to configure the way the software works to produce exactly what we need out of it.  Custom Programing is available but very little was needed.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a lot of views, reports and pages.  Sometimes it is tough to remember how to get to a certain report that you do not use often.
> 
> \[sensitive content hidden\] set the bar for responsiveness to our requests.  They are able to tell you quickly how much work something will take and the easy ones were usually done in a matter of hours\!

> 
> We switched over to ControlBoard a few months ago, and other than the initial phase of being introduced to ControlBoard, we have faced no real difficulties integrating the program into our team. It has helped many departments in our company stay on the same page easily.

### "Efficient, Intuitive, and Well-Supported—ControlBoard Delivers" — 5.0/5

> **Tomas** | *23 May 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: With ControlBoard, resources can be scheduled easily, and complex labor forecasts can be prepared, ensuring we run efficiently without hiccups or guessing.
> 
> **Cons**: While I understand their importance, I personally am not a huge fan of having the release notes prominently displayed on the home screen. I think it would be more user-friendly if these notes were hidden or made less visible, as they can clutter the interface and distract from the main content.
> 
> ControlBoard is user-friendly and easy to navigate. The support is excellent and very responsive. I appreciate having clean data that I can understand and justify, and ControlBoard excels at that.
