I’ve been using the spreadsheet for about 3 months. If you’re familiar with Excel, it’s simple to use with almost no learning curve. Covers all the basics and gets the job done. So far, I’m happy with the product.
I spent a lot of time trying to create my own estimating spreadsheet with mixed success. Have also tried a few of the free ones, but they were buggy. With a little customization, this one has worked well for our company. The job-costing feature has turned up a few surprises that has helped us fine-tune our estimates. Thanks for a great, simple estimator.
I recently purchased the Estimating Worksheet and already have found it an invaluable tool. I am a small builder with one full time employee and a number of sub-contractors. Even though I am highly proficient in Excel as you no doubt would be aware that finding the time to create spreadsheets and running the business can be very difficult. The costs involved having an outside contractor come up with what I require in a spreadsheet can be very prohibitive and normally the end product is still not satisfactory. Combining what I have already put together and your spreadsheet gives me a very good base. I also use the Itemized Bid Worksheet master form. It is all that I require since it is an easy matter to fill in the blanks for each part of a project.
I love how easy it is to use! I recommend it very much!
I’ve found the premium version of this estimating program to be a good fit for my remodeling jobs and additions. It’s simple to use and does everything I need. I also do a lot of insurance work where I use Xactimate, the industry standard for insurance repair, Xactimate is great, but overkill for my non-insurance jobs. Thanks, for a great program that gets the job done.
