BuildBook vs Buildertrend

vs

Buildertrend

We believe that construction management software should be affordable and make running your business easier. But many pros have told us that their project management software is the most frustrating tool in their business.

That’s because other big-name “all-in-one” project management tools are too complicated, clunky, and have way too many features that you and your team simply don't need.

You need a tool that is as fast and reliable as your trusty notepad but with the features that save you time and help you impress your clients. BuildBook empowers your team and speeds you up with the tools you need to get the job done.

Why builders prefer BuildBook over Buildertrend

BuildBook is focused on the features that matter most to you

You don’t need a bloated platform that includes everything and the kitchen sink.
‍
BuildBook’s software is made for residential construction companies who just want to run their projects smoothly, keep everyone on the same page, and provide a top-notch experience that clients tell their friends about.

That’s why, when you compare the features of BuildBook with other tools, all you need to know is that BuildBook gives you everything you need and nothing you don't.

What builders are looking for in project management software

You spoke, we listened

Most all-in-one construction management platforms try to pack as many features as they can within their product.

As is the case, when you try to do everything ... you end up not being great at anything.
‍
Rather than building complex tools you don't need, we asked builders and remodelers what features truly mattered most to their business and then ruthlessly focused on making them better than anyone else.

Sales Tools you won’t find included in other software (at least not in every plan)
