This product is quite possibly my favorite program used to link all project members. Hands down the easiest and most comprehensive document sharing product available.

Pros

The format allows you to see the big picture of the project and the ability to zero in my particular scope.

Cons

In my experience, some GCs don't close their projects and I still receive notifications for projects that have ended. That may be the fault of the GC and not the developers.

Pros

You can use this program as a centralized location for project documents. The program does not have great customization options for sorting through RFI's, Submittals, etc.

Cons

The program seems outdated, not much has changed about it over the last 3 years i have been using it as a subcontractor

Pros

Not one thing. You basically pay to be treated like crap. It is a clicking nightmare. Difficult to find what you are looking for.

Cons

Condescending service. Difficult to use. Not user friendly. When you call in for help, they treat you like complete crap.

MEP Engineer using Submittal Exchange for RFIs and Submittal processing

Used Weekly for 1+ year
Reviewed on 5/14/2018
Review Source: Capterra

Pros

+Email notifications for submittals and RFIs that are in my court (MEP Engineer); email notifications when the architect has sent back the RFI to the contractor
+Can access all RFIs at once and log gives detailed history

Cons

-Software is tailored more for contractor use and not so much MEP Engineer or Architect; therefore permissions of what can be viewed are limited

Bid Organizer is a little bit off of track!

Used Monthly for 1-5 months

Pros

Not that much I can say that really sums up what it's all about, but something that I liked from the program is its reliability.

Cons

I used to be a faithful user to this program but it never really modernized and for me that is a real deal breaker.
