About ConstructionOnline

UDA Technologies’ ConstructionOnline offers a web-based, integrated approach to project management, project scheduling, and customer management. Designed for emerging construction businesses in the homebuilding and remodeling industries, the system allows users to remain apprised of all project changes and updates. The solution includes Gantt chart style schedules, where tasks can quickly be converted into groups. The project management module provides photo management features, includes document control and helps with budgeting and cost management. The customer management program provides customized buyer portals, contract management, and home configuration. Punch list items are automatically updated and shared complete with documents and photographs through a fully-integrated mobile application, and nothing falls through the cracks with the To Dos interface. The client portals feature helps customers view project calendars, approve upgrades, make change orders, and even see files and photos of their project through a secure, password-protected online portal. Each client interface is branded with the buyer’s company logo and color scheme, and the company retains complete control over what each client sees. ConstructionOnline is available in a web-based format and is accessible on Mac and Android mobile devices. The system works well for small to medium-sized businesses and up to 50 users. ConstructionOnline is best suited for commercial and residential design and build firms, custom homebuilders, real estate developers, and residential remodelers.

Hands Down Winner

Pros

ConstructionOnline's format and function are intuitive which helps me find what I need when I need it. It's easy to understand, but full of smart features that will help us to be excellent in our trade. Having a quality customer service experience, consistently, is also a huge reason I can trust that ConstructionOnline wants us to be successful together.

Cons

I wish I had more time to get familiar with all of the features available but the 10 day trial period is still enough to see that this is the system for us. If CompanyCam could be integrated with it in future, that would be great, but not a deal-breaker by any means.

If You’re a Residential Contractor, This Software Does It All

Aside from its features, the best thing about this software is the exceptional customer support. Wait times are minimal (if any), and the team knows the product inside and out. If they don’t have an answer right away, I always get a quick callback.

As a residential renovation company, this software works perfectly for our needs. While I don’t use all the features, I can see how it’s versatile enough to benefit larger construction companies too. Highly recommend

Pros

This software is fantastic and super easy to use, especially for estimating. The estimation section, complete with assemblies, is my go-to. I frequently use stored templates I’ve created, and the ability to save custom estimates as templates is a game-changer. The Redline section is also amazing for take-offs, which can be seamlessly sent to an estimate—something I haven’t seen done elsewhere.

All estimates can be exported to QuickBooks or Excel, making integration a breeze. I also love the variety of reports available. They can be used as-is, customized, or exported as PDFs. I often import these into Excel for further personalization.

A standout feature is the ability to see your job margin and adjust markup to maximize profit while staying competitive—extremely useful for tracking profitability.

The Selections and Change Order sections are incredibly helpful. Clients can easily approve COs and selections, preventing misorders and avoiding inadvertent issues. Plus, clients can access various reports and progress updates, keeping everyone on the same page.

We also use the chat feature for job-specific communications, saving us from digging through endless emails. Weekly job notes and progress reports are posted here, and we share updates directly with clients.

Lastly, the ability to take and organize photos is fantastic for both internal records and keeping clients updated on progress. This software truly streamlines our workflow and improves client communication.

Cons

There are times when I wish a feature was developed to work better for me, and they are not always available quickly. Usually, I find a way to work differently or export to a PDF or Excel and get what I need that way.

Prostitution of Loyal Customers

I have been a user for many years - from way back when they started and used the Microsoft Office Suite as their platform. CS has abandoned the loyal customer base who helped build the business to what it is today. They have held their customer's data captive and prostituted them by abandoning the desktop platform and forcing the customer to pay ridiculously higher subscription fees. I understand innovation but at the least they could support the old customer base by maintaining, without upgrades, the previous platforms around which many of us built our businesses. Word of caution - expect to be treated the way that CS views you, as a commodity to be exploited not a customer to be appreciated. Thank you CS for 20 years and for the consideration you have given guys like us.

Pros

Thorough and integrated, user friendly and good logic.

Cons

Construction Suite abandoned the customer base that helped build the company.

Pros

Great estimating tools, Great job tracking capability's, runs smoothly and without crashing like other programs, runs in real time and accessible through any online browser.

Cons

The App version could be platformed in away to help the field guys more easily compile accurate and useful reports!
