Hear from our customers
"Takeoffs before Buildxact were ridiculous! They just led to a lot of wasted time. My quoting time for projects has dramatically reduced, and the fact that we’re sending out purchase orders now for everything is great."
"I found Buildxact pretty easy to get started with. All it took was 45 minutes and I was already able to put together and estimate and produce a quote."
