I realized that I can be able to effectively address my tasks using this software without the need for more elaborate or pricey applications. ----- ### "METHVIN Take-Off Software Review" — 5.0/5 > **Mary April** | *9 November 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I found subscribing to Methvin is much easier. There’s not so many forms to fill and all information requirements are direct compared to other Software’s that requires irrelevant information and hard disk space to download before you can even start opening the drawings. Its Cloud-based feature gives Methvin the Software advantage that is truly what I need to keep up with the current fast phased construction industry requirement. Methvin Software is user friendly where Sample works can be easily access along with the very Clear HELP Feature whenever I needed training or I need to search for commands and procedures in the system. I observed that the Gant Chart export options to Excel, PDF, and MS Project is an excellent feature that is truly admirable in this software. I like that the Dashboard, Inbox, Apps, Project Management Resources (System, Incidents/Issues/ITP) and the inclusion of the Contract documents are added in Methvin functions which makes it comprehensively unique compared to other takeoff software. > > **Cons**: I found that it easily uploads PDF files but has yet to improve the option of AUTOCAD File Uploading in their system, since upon trying to upload AUTOCAD Plans the result is Erroneous. I found that Methvin uses simple tools making it user friendly but apropos features such as pan and zoom function, full plan view function, measuring curvilinear lines, snap and ortho functions, ability to edit/add/delete points after measuring and the option to hide/show dimensions including measurement legends on plans has to be incorporated in order to maximize and efficiently measure all required data from plans. I noticed that the Measurement Report feature of letting me measure sub-rooms is quite nice but editing the descriptions are somewhat challenging specially that it does not show on the Excel Sheet after being exported.I observed that the Pages feature shows the full page but fails to show the highlighted/measured areas in the working drawing.Full View is not possible when measuring, Methvin will just show the full view upon opening the plan again. Upon exporting measurements to Excel, I noticed that the edited name descriptions replacing Zone/Phase does not show. Lastly I observed that Wall Area Measurement feature will only give the total linear meter and does not have the option to deduct openings that is essential to acquire the Net Wall Area per room, if Methvin can incorporate the option to deduct openings, surely Methvin will be a Hit > > I can say that Methvin Software with minor fixings and update will surely be the most useful tool to all Stakeholders, Contractors and Subcontractors in the Construction Industry within a short time. ----- ### "Kenetic Associates" — 4.0/5 > **Kenneth** | *11 October 2023* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of Use in copy and paste of the line item Rows > > **Cons**: None I can think of - I was quite happy with the produce > > Construction Estimating ----- ### "The import SoP from excel mapping tool is very helpful." — 5.0/5 > **Richard** | *1 December 2017* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The system has been a lifesaver so far, and we are only utilizing a small percentage of it. Once I master one aspect I take on another and with each new function I am so thrilled. Easy to use and amazing functionality\!\! The support team are amazing and extremely knowledgeable about all the features of the software. > > **Cons**: There were some issues with the functionality that did not fit with our business model. I expressed this to the support staff and he took my concerns to his developers to work on adding these items in the future. > > Best of all you can shared all projects to collaborate colleagues ----- ### "Resourceful Cost Management Software" — 5.0/5 > **Praveen** | *4 April 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The amount of features available for accessibility. > > **Cons**: The lagging sometimes slows down the performance. > > It has been excellent to date and yser friendly ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/118755/methvin-estimating?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/118755/methvin-estimating) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
