Fieldwire - Avis

Fieldwire est un produit facile à prendre en main, intuitif et adapté à notre métier du second œuvre du bâtiment. Il nous fait gagner un temps précieux dans la gestion des documents, la communication avec le chantier et le contrôle qualité.

Fieldwire est très ouvert et adapté au plus grand nombre. La contre partie est que l'on ne peut contraindre l'utilisateur (formaliser des noms de dossier, forcer à remplir certaines options,...)
Il me manque également la possibilité de suivre facilement les avancements de pose en pouvant extraire le "surlignage" des réseaux.

The task features. Being able to assign task and track them.

Not really anything I don't like. Maybe would add edit features on pictures.

The overall ease of use of this product for field staff and cost was the deciding factor.

No take off feature available to integrate with excel spreadsheets.

Friendly user , easy to follow and costumer service

Need to continue the development , but nothing except that

More Intuitive than other software we tried. We were able to get value right away and recently had a training session to use some of the more advanced features.
The ability to access the plans or other documents anywhere via the cloud is a time saver. Great for managers that are involved in multiple projects.

It would be good if we could have a library of electrical symbols to add extra work and changes to our as builts. Or be able to build the images on a clipboard that we could paste from.

It was very easy to take photos of certain deficiencies, add tasks and assign to the different trades.

I found that the sync between my phone and my computer took a long time sometimes to connect . When you are in a hurry on the job site it could be frustrating.

Very good resource for tracking field production for completion for projects in a timely matter in order to keep clients happy.

The price for multiple accounts is starting to make me think about finding another resource. Getting a little expensive.

I love the reports and forms that can be made within FW. I also enjoy how the tasks and checklists can be added to our maps and plans. The app is also very user friendly and makes walking job sites a breeze and allows for quick turn around times.

Pulling up reports and making changes to the plans can be cumbersome at times.

I really dont have information about IT stuff, but this software is reachable from every device and everywhere very fast. That is important. We are working in a 50FL tower which has no signal in its core, but anyways, when the tablet reaches a signal, all things done offline is sychronized for everybody at that sec. Which saves a lot of time and builds confidence

Improvements could be made by user, like open softwares, the menus may become much more editable.

-Ease of use
-Quick hyperlinks within drawing packages
-Comments on pins for tasks created help track workflow seamlessly around the office
-Multiple people can be working on/redlining drawings at the same time
-Document control is fast and easy to navigate
-Increases productivity, and has allowed us to capture more errors and dive deeper into our drawing packages

-The fee structure for pro users is very confusing. The billings come in fits and starts, are hard to track, and when people are added/removed from a project, items are credited back. It is hard to track month to month costs as some months only the pro users were on but other months we may have had 4 other users on for a range of one day to 3 weeks and the costs of that get lost in the invoicing.

I love the precision picture taking, "on the spot" notifications for every member when changes to projects are made, easy note-taking on top of plans and task managing.

Simply that I haven't had the time to go through it all already! Too much work!

I really like having the ability for our entire crew to have access to our construction plans. In addition, Fieldwire makes it easy to mark up the plans, being able to show production and make notes.

The feature I least like about Fieldwire is not being able to label our construction plans with the same number/description when they are in separate folders.

web based, realtime, Mark ups are easily completed. picture adding, personal task lists, task list !

too many upgrades. Pdf export should be included in base rate. some additional mark up tools would be nice as well

information at your fingertips ease of finding data

unsure as to things I don't like until I'm in the moment

Ease of use and ease of deployment. Just the right fit

Integration between mobile and desktop. Syncing

The ease of use and ability to keep up with everything. I love having the ability to keep up with multiple sites without having to visit them. Every crew is at my fingertips.

I have not really had any issues. Maybe a small glitch very seldomly but resolved quickly. This is a must-have for any job site big or small.

Ease of access to information on one site.
Ability to manipulate documentation.

Would like to access daily reports on site by week or month to narrow search.

Easy to use once you learn the software. It makes you look professional and organized while in meetings, on the job site, etc.

There needs to be a way to edit or mark sheets within the "file" portion of the software.

The automatic labeling of drawings, and creating of hyperlinks between sheets

Errors in reading sheet titles for uploaded drawing sets

I like the picture and daily reporting feature we use those the most. Punchlists and reports

I feel like it should have the ability to set a time a task is due to be done and have Fieldwire send a reminder if a task has not been completed by due date. It is difficult or I don't know how to use a picture that someone else put into fieldwire and mark it up and add to a task will working on my mobile. NO change order tab i have tried creating my own just don't have a lot of time to work on anything but work.

Data on website and on mobile synchronized at all moment. Very good display and good functionality on the mobile. All data available very quickly, easy to follow project.

Some views for reporting can be improved on the website. Alerts and reminders are not working well.

Exporting PDFs with all the comments and hyperlinked photos has saved our inspectors much time in archiving their findings.

Small item I've already suggested to their customer support and they've been responsive in saying when it might be implemented, which is applying different colors to the picture icons, so we can color code our pictures.

It was fairly easy to import files into Field Wire.

It was limited in its ability to mark up prints for as builds.

more time available to walk site for inspections and to pin point issues

filtering is not available on 14" laptop screen.
