Nice clean UI compared to many other tools in this space. > > **Cons**: I would love to see them move to an open API where integrating with other tools is possible. They do really well from a project management standpoint, but we would like to be able to connect to our ERP and CRM. > > Within the construction space this is a solid tool with a good runway for growth and improvements. ----- ### "My Experience" — 5.0/5 > **Chris** | *15 July 2025* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very quickly learned how to use the program and it covers all the bases for a solid PM platform as a MEP trade partner. > > **Cons**: Not anything of significance. Great platform for small to medium size businesses. As our company has grown, the larger ERP and plan management systems are entering this space with minimum downside to switch. > > They conduct periodic check-ins. You receive annual usage reports and the actively solicit your feedback on what can make them better. ----- ### "eSub is very easy to use and has just about everything that you could want in a software product" — 4.0/5 > **Marci** | *26 June 2017* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use- even for computer illiterate people. There is not much more that you could ask for especially for subcontractors. Most of the software out there is for general contractors. > > **Cons**: We do some things differently and have had to wait a little while to get a few things changed to our way of doing them. > > The customer service/ support is amazing. Overall everything you might want in a system is already there. The few things needed to customize it for your company can usually get done. Our foremen, who may not have much computer experience out in the field, have easily gotten accustomed to it as well. ----- ### "Great for Small Subcontractors" — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *16 January 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great for small subcontractors who want to maintain accurate project records. > > **Cons**: Innovation has seemed to lag when compared to competitors. > > We used eSub for nearly five years. As an electrical contractor looking for enhanced project documentation and reporting, it was a great product. ----- ### "Masonry Review" — 4.0/5 > **Adam** | *2 February 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was a one stop shop for my change orders, time cards and daily reports. > > **Cons**: The mobile app is not clean at all. Needs a lot of work. I also do not like how I have to do the extra leg work in order to see the real time cost of the project. I wish there was also a way for the program to pull the cost codes from my imported estimate into which cost codes are displayed in the project. it takes a long time to get the cost codes entered for a large project. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/134326/esub-general-contractor?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/134326/esub-general-contractor) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
