Offered by Congistics Corporation, it takes the idea of planning using a white board and allows it to be done electronically via a set of networked PC’s, smartphone, tablets, and the cloud, across an organization. Business rules, work flow and intra/inter-department collaboration can now be accomplished as part of managing the project. ControlBoard combines the process of planning, scheduling, dispatching and managing resources assigned to jobs. Users can create weekly or monthly look-ahead schedules without the need to use a whiteboard to plan projects. Since it is a multi-user system, schedules can be created and shared across the entire enterprise. Resources can be allocated to jobs, equipment moves can be scheduled, and tasks can be dispatched to the proper people in one integrated system. ControlBoard was created after carefully studying the business processes of fast paced construction companies moving million dollar assets in real time. > > Verdict: Rated **4.8/5** by 54 users.

Custom Programing is available but very little was needed. > > **Cons**: There are a lot of views, reports and pages. Sometimes it is tough to remember how to get to a certain report that you do not use often. > > \[sensitive content hidden\] set the bar for responsiveness to our requests. They are able to tell you quickly how much work something will take and the easy ones were usually done in a matter of hours\! ----- ### "ControlBoard" — 5.0/5 > **Krista** | *3 June 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: ControlBoard is easy to use for the field and office. It also integrates great with Quickbooks. Also, I really like the fact that if you do have any questions or concerns, they are easy to get ahold of and answer your questions. Scheduling is quick and makes it easy for the project managers. All of the info it holds on the employees is very useful as well. > > **Cons**: There honestly isn't really anything I can think of that we don't like. Anything we have had any issue with was either changed or was just something we didn't know. The only thing I can really think of, was I wish there was a place for a picture for each employee, so that it is just there when you open the employee up. ----- ### "From the Service Coordinator" — 3.0/5 > **Diane** | *23 January 2024* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: User Friendly, Excellent Customer Service > > **Cons**: No integration into Sage Contractor 100 program. > > It's been excellent, again wonderful customer service ----- ### "Real-Time Visibility" — 5.0/5 > **Scott** | *4 June 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: ControlBoard® has been a valuable tool for our operation. The mobile platform has helped free up our team from manual scheduling processes while providing real-time visibility into work activities and resource utilization. One of the biggest benefits has been the ability to see schedules, capacity and workload information as it happens, allowing us to make better decisions and respond more quickly to changing priorities. The platform has also improved our ability to see our capacity, plan resources more effectively, and identify potential constraints before they become issues. Overall, ControlBoard® has increased efficiency, improved visibility across the organization, and given our team the flexibility to manage schedules and resources from anywhere. > > **Cons**: Like most technology solutions, there were some challenges initially where we had to adapt to the system. However, once we began using the platform consistently, those early hiccups quickly became non-issues. > > It's been a blessing. The platform has given us real-time visibility into our operations, improved resource planning, and freed up our team to focus on higher-value work. ----- ### "We \<3 CB\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Payton** | *22 May 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We like ControlBoard for it's efficiency. We love that it is able to streamline scheduling, payroll services, and job organization all in one program. > > **Cons**: Honestly, there isn't much I don't like about ControlBoard. Anytime I have questions regarding a process, our main point of contact for CB \[sensitive content hidden\], always has a helpful answer on how to complete the task at hand. > > We switched over to ControlBoard a few months ago, and other than the initial phase of being introduced to ControlBoard, we have faced no real difficulties integrating the program into our team. It has helped many departments in our company stay on the same page easily. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/11980/controlboard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/11980/controlboard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
