Where Buildertrend is the better fit

A company with an office staff, a lot of jobs running at once, and someone whose job it is to set the software up and keep everyone in it. Buildertrend is deep, and that depth is what a larger operation is paying for.

Where BuilderLine is

You put the schedule in once with your subs on it, and it runs the job: the heads-up text to a sub is written before he is due, a task that runs late moves everything behind it, and the homeowner’s question gets a drafted answer. Take pictures of the job and it updates the schedule to match what is built. All of it waits on your yes, and a text goes out from your own number when you press send.

Nothing to migrate first. Keep your spreadsheet, keep QuickBooks, keep texting your subs. Start one job with three numbers and let the rest earn its place.
