It is faster and easier than other platforms. Everything is very straightforward. It has increased my bidding and estimating efficiency ten fold. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints with Insite, it is my favorite takeoff program hands down. It takes a fraction of the time to perform a grading takeoff accurately when compared to Trimble Business Center. > > Value for your money and customer support are unbeatable. If there is something you can't figure out how to do correctly and you contact support they will make it a priority to help you to understand. Their training classes are straight to the point and the lessons you are provided with from the get go, teach you everything you need to know for success. Utilizing the 3D live features really help me to visualize my site. ----- ### "Software Contractors Need" — 5.0/5 > **Angie** | *28 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Elevation Pro is an excellent software, well worth its price\! It is hard to pinpoint one favorite feature. It is easy to learn and use making the estimating process much more simple. InSite Elevation Pro has the best customer support I have ever experienced with any bidding software. Our customers love the 3D modeling of both the existing contours as well as the proposed contours. Then being able to Geo locate the project so customers can see their project at completion, is a game changer. > > **Cons**: There are two areas I would like to see improved. The Reports need options to combine information. The Subgrade needs a "tool box" of items previously created items in a drop down list to prevent redundancy and save time. > > Overall I find this to be a highly effective software that is easy to use. It allows us to be more precise and competitive in our bidding. Winning bids is the name of the game. ----- ### "Est-mator 2026" — 5.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *24 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The program is straight forward with a reference manual in the program, the technical support is great. > > **Cons**: It is clunky the modify the alignment rectangle, some of the smaller less used features are difficult to make work properly. > > Overall experience is good to great. The ease of take-offs makes quick work to finish an accurate take-off. ----- ### "Matson - Pilot Rock Excavation" — 5.0/5 > **Matson** | *27 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Elevation Pro is the customer support. Whenever I have a question or run into a problem, the support team is there to help me sort it out. > > **Cons**: I wish there was a better way to keep track of overridden trenches when using a location type centerline. Most of the time, I use a location type centerline when backfill material changes as the pipe passes between hardscaped/landscaped sections. It would be nice to have a visual difference between the two so I can better keep track of what backfill type I modeled. Also, assigning colors to specific pipe layers would be awesome so I don't have to find the right color each time I create a new centerline. For example, blue is assigned to the waterline layer, green to sewer, orange to storm drain, etc. > > Our experience with Elevation Pro has been really positive. We were super impressed with the sales team that provided the demos, which is largely why we went with InSite compared to the big names in the takeoff/estimating software industry. ----- ### "Great Software and solution" — 5.0/5 > **Manny** | *24 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Insite's ease of use is great. I like how every tool is easy to find and intuitive. 3D view is also a great tool > > **Cons**: I wish it was easier to set up certain files. Some times CAD files are complicated and takes too long to start working > > Very satisfied with the product, with their support and the continuous updates. I will continue to use this product for the foreseeable future. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/49897/insite-sitework?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/49897/insite-sitework) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
