We have a simple time getting new people up to speed and learning the various. It is also well known across the industry. > > **Cons**: We have a difficult time transferring job costing information to the ERP (Trimble). Could be the ERP platform but still causes us grief. Customer service quality has decreased since the acquisition happened. > > We love it for the most part. The product functions as represented. Ease of use and accuracy is solid. ----- ### "B2W Estimate" — 5.0/5 > **Jan** | *5 November 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and duplicate results. Helps ensure that projects are bid with the same standards every time. > > **Cons**: Setup is very time consuming. With that being said, once it is setup, modifying items is very easy and straightforward. > > We have had fantastic results using B2W Estimate. Estimates are more consistent from job to job and we can see where the costs are going on a line by line basis. ----- ### "Estimate is a great solution." — 4.0/5 > **Gabe** | *13 November 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Estimate makes the process from the beginning to the end of a project seamless. - vendor and sub management is very organized and makes quote evaluation very streamlined. - customer support is some of the best I have ever dealt with. very helpful if I need to know how to do something or something isn't working quite right. > > **Cons**: one con I would say is there is no undo function. It would be a nice feature. It really doesn't make the system less functional I have just had some instances where I edited and estimate but I made a mistake or wanted to change it back for some reason. > > Experience has been great. we recently switched over to the cloud and that was a great decision to be able to estimate anywhere. ----- ### "Good estimating software with many tools" — 4.0/5 > **Sean** | *10 November 2017* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The program is straight forward to learn, however, there are many features so there is a learning curve. The vendor and subcontractor RFQ is a great feature that makes analysis much easier. There are many reports available. Very helpful software. > > **Cons**: There is no undo button, so be very careful before you take action. It is somewhat laborious to set up an estimate, a drag and drop feature of tasks or components would speed things up greatly. > > This program works very well with Viewpoint and makes setting up a job in Viewpoint much easier. ----- ### Review — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *8 July 2011* > > About a year ago, our company was still estimating with spreadsheets. Our system was effective for acquiring work, but didn't really allow for much integration with scheduling, project management, or accounting software. We also had problems with collaboration between estimators on a single estimate. Limitations with spreadsheets forced us to occasionally create multiple estimating files in order to allow more than one estimator to work concurrently on a single project. A more troubling problem was the increasing disparity in spreadsheets from different estimators. Personal preferences led to individual changes on each spreadsheet revision, in both appearance and function. This was problematic during file integration, but also through transitions among staff. Our project managers and superintendents struggled to coordinate projects between different estimators, who sometimes presented the same information in different formats. Realizing that the problems and flaws in our system were only going to get worse, we began to investigate potential software solutions. We decided to go with BID2WIN because the software addressed all our needs at a reasonable price point, and provided all the features of other systems as well as a lot more. We've been using BID2WIN for about a year now, so we're still newbies, and still finding new ways to harness its powerful tools to our advantage. Make no mistake, it IS a powerful tool, and the only regret I have is that we didn't make the move years ago. Implementation of BID2WIN Is not just "installation." It's a collaborative process that entails considerable effort from the client, and from different levels of the BID2WIN implementation and training team. They don't just dump the software on your server. They require considerable effort and involvement from you, the client, but the time and effort you invest into it will be returned many times over. BID2WIN Software had us up and running pretty quickly, and we immediately realized the savings in time. The import features, item and task templates, and RFQ process make building an estimate almost effortless. The process only gets faster and easier as we gain familiarity with the programs, and as our databases grow. The time we save in building estimates can now be utilized to learn the intricacies of the project, and fine tune our efforts accordingly. We don't get every job we bid with BID2WIN. That isn't a goal, and never was. What utilizing BID2WIN does do is lead to better cost accuracy - which, of course, is the single most important aspect of estimating, and the construction business as a whole. Anyone can be a low bidder. What's great is to be the low bidder, while knowing exactly what your margins are - and that's just for starters. BID2WIN addressed all of the issues we had with our spreadsheet estimating. The system allows multiple users to modify a single estimating file concurrently without the need for multiple bidding files, so true collaboration can take place. BID2WIN also immediately standardized our estimating process. These days, we can easily transfer project responsibility from any estimator to any project manager or superintendent, knowing that the information stays consistent in both content and presentation. But beyond that, BID2WIN's myriad reports allow people of different responsibilities to extract their information in virtually any form they want. BID2WIN effectively addressed our crucial need to standardize our process, but the tool also maintained the positive aspects of individualization. My favorite aspect of BID2WIN is the effortless and sleek integration it affords us. Once we are a successful bidder on a project, we can export BID2WIN files and load them into our accounting, project management and scheduling software programs. Within minutes, we have a resource-loaded schedule to hand off to the project manager and superintendent; cost estimates loaded into our job costing; and purchase orders and subcontracts printed, loaded into our accounting program, and ready to distribute to our vendors and subcontractors. There is no redundancy, duplication of effort, or clerical errors, and the task is done in minutes. It still amazes me. As a business owner, the old adage that "time is money" should be a mantra, and the time savings we have derived from the implementation of BID2WIN has already paid for its acquisition costs. With our ability to generate a larger volume of estimates, and with greater cost accuracy, we are also more profitable overall. Innovation is another aspect of BID2WIN that makes the company stand out. Many of the product updates and developments to the system come directly from end-user requests and suggestions. The software doesn't just add cosmetic bells and whistles. The developers collaborate with users to add useful tools that provide additional value, and make our jobs easier. BID2WIN has been everything we had hoped for, and more. We highly recommend this solution to anyone except our direct competition. We'd love to maintain the competitive advantage it affords us. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/183197/b2w-estimate?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/183197/b2w-estimate) ## 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 | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
