I could not be any happier ----- ### "Great All Around Software" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *13 November 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: -easy learning curve -lots of functionality -detailed info and reports -customization > > **Cons**: -not enough tutorials -limited explanation of functions, a lot you learn by trial by error > > I have been using this software for approximately 5 years, have tried mos of the alternatives on the market and always stick with this software. I would recommend this software to anyone. ----- ### "Good Value, a couple of wish list items for improvement" — 5.0/5 > **Randy** | *13 November 2018* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to learn, and does A LOT for the cost and time it takes to start using > > **Cons**: I really want an Excel output report in simple spreadsheet format. Example of what I want: Plan Sheet Color Data 1 Sf Volume Floorplan Red Building Material One 100 600 Floorplan Blue Building Material One 200 800 Elevations Yellow Building Material One 250 900 Elevations Blue Building Material One 50 180 Shown below is the way Active T reports look now. I have to manually create new columns in Excel to show Color and Plan Sheet info IN EACH ROW. So I can sort my report by the heading of ANY COLUMN at will. FLOORPLAN Color Red Building Material One 100 600 Color Blue Building Material One 200 800 ELEVATIONS Color Yellow Building Material One 250 900 Color Blue Building Material One 50 180 This is just one example of the current reports using extraneous rows to deliver information. Please give me one reporting option that has NO rows containing anything that is not pure data, with the sole exception of the headings to each column, which should be located in the first row. Things that are now titles to separate sections in the report should be converted to a column, and the title should be reported on each row. Like the Plan Sheet and Color info is showing in my example report. Please and Thank You\! > > AT is a quick and efficient way to take info out of plans and other images, and best of all to document the source of the take off information. The PDF reports created by AT make it easy to document and share the take off process with others. Really cool program. ----- ### "Estimating" — 3.0/5 > **Michael** | *16 November 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The take off element is very easy to use > > **Cons**: The estimating element is not easy to use > > Very quick to create a measured schedule but converting to a priced Schule is difficult ----- ### "Active Takeoff is Great Software\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *13 November 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software works great for checking my sq ft takeoffs. If I get a different amount of sq ft with this software than my takeoff, then I know I have made a mistake on my takeoff. In the long run it could save thousands of dollars by giving an accurate sq ft of product. > > **Cons**: I have liked everything about it. There is not a single item with this software that I like the least. > > Active takeoff has helped me find mistakes in my sq ft takeoffs before I send out a bid. This has saved the company thousands of dollars. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/137198/active-takeoff?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/137198/active-takeoff) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fi | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
