Testimonials

“Unlike its competitors, Buildsoft has an exceptional functionality as well as a reasonable pricing and maintenance policy. That's why I like Buildsoft”. 

Buddhika Jayatillake, MBA BSc(QS) Dip(PM) FRICS FCIOB AAIQS,  Managing Director, QCost Consultants Pty Ltd, Sydney, NSW - 9th November 2011


“Working in the construction industry with ever tightening margins and increased expectations invariably causes all expenditure and costs to be reviewed.  Costs are scrutinised in detail with a view to getting the ‘best price’ before attention swings to items that may be considered ‘discretionary’.  The fact that estimating can be done without Buildsoft does not make it discretionary and construction companies that think like that are costing themselves money. Buildsoft has proven itself in our business time & time again.  It saves money by ensuring material take offs are accurate – addressing the scourge of waste.  It makes money by allowing our team to confidently price more projects with our existing team without adding extra cost.  We have found the Buildsoft package and particularly the BTOS component to be intuitive and user friendly.  Installation and support provided by Haydon and his team have been first class and it’s good to know that there is that support behind us.  I would happily recommend Buildsoft & BTOS to anyone contemplating it.”

"I have Offsider Estimating. I have to compliment you for this great estimating program."

"Congratulations to Buildsoft for the system that you have developed. As I have been using this system for approximately 20 years I have seen it grow from the Buildsoft DOS version to the Global Estimating System and have enjoyed the benefits immensely. I am convinced that it makes my job as a Quantity Surveyor and Estimator a lot easier and enables me to complete a much larger range of projects in a much shorter time. Once again keep up the good work."

"About five years ago we evaluated a number of estimating packages. Buildsoft was chosen primarily for the ability to be able to import items from a price list and accurately sort each element into trade packages for job costing purposes. We have developed our own specific price list which now enables us to write our own scopes of work for submission with each of our quotations. Buildsoft has not disappointed - we have both stand alone and network versions and it has cut our estimating time by at least half. PS : Their support is first class as well." 
Robert Lyng - Johns & Lyng Builders - Melbourne, VIC 

"For the past few weeks you (Buildsoft) have been assisting Greg Price from our office with conversion of various files. I want to say thanks, we got the job out last night. As you well realise it was a difficult job, but without your support I am not sure we would have been able to achieve our deadline. Thanks again from all of us..." 
Charles Wright - QS Services - Darwin, NT 

"I think that Buildsoft is a great estimating tool, easy to use and provides the user with the ability to compare many subcontract / supplier quotes easily and effectively in a spreadsheet format. I also like the fact the Buildsoft is constantly trying to improve its estimating program, by inviting prominent estimators in the industry to gather together in a 'think tank' like environment and put forward their views. Buildsoft's phone assistance is excellent as well, although, their hours of service could be extended. I believe if your not using Buildsoft, your not a serious Estimator." 
Michael Gleecher - Estimator, Sydney, NSW 

"Your company's "Customer Service" has been great! In the States we call it Customer NO SERVICE!!! but it doesn't apply to your company."

"...Buildsoft Offsider is useful for the specific needs of (our) company. Offsider also seems to be a very useful scheduling / take-off tool. Good work. "
