Sabado means Saturday with the idea that you can enjoy a lake house any day of the week while still affording a sense of relaxation a Saturday naturally brings.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\"><strong>The scenario:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">When Matthew McCrimmon, owner of Sabado Homes, first started, his business was a menagerie of spreadsheets, Word docs, text messages, emails, notebooks, and trying to piece these all together. It became too much of a headache for him and his business. He started searching for a more efficient way to communicate with his subcontractors for a quicker bidding process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">&#8220;I disliked going having to go into the office to look for a piece of information.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\"><strong>The solution:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Matthew knew there had to be a better and different way to organize his business. He uses software to manage his personal life, and he was searching for&nbsp;construction management software&nbsp;that would work for his professional life.&nbsp;Enter&nbsp;Buildxact. Matthew chose&nbsp;Buildxact&nbsp;because it offered a two-week free trial, and he didn&#8217;t have to spend time on a call with anyone. He could jump right in.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">He started with takeoffs, and it was powerful for him, so he moved on to estimating. As soon as he had a question, he pulled up a video tutorial. From there, he&#8217;s moved along and is folding more and more of what he used to do on five other programs into&nbsp;Buildxact.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">&#8220;For us, it shows that we&#8217;re organized, which is a huge thing for a builder.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\"><strong>The result:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Buildxact&nbsp;solved Matthew&#8217;s need for speed and accuracy from takeoffs to the bidding process. He&#8217;s fielding few phone calls and clarifying fewer details because&nbsp;Buildxact&nbsp;lays everything&nbsp;that needs to be bid. Accuracy has become more and more critical for&nbsp;builders because a little mistake five years ago is a huge mistake in today&#8217;s environment when it comes to material costs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">&#8220;Buildxact\u2019s&nbsp;estimating software&nbsp;allows me to create an accurate takeoff to send to my subcontractors to speed up the bidding process.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Advice to other builders:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">&#8220;To builders out there thinking about using&nbsp;Buildxact, give it a shot and just see how quickly you will be able to work the key features into your daily workflow.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Buildxact Customer Story - Sabado Homes\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g2O-FwRrgEw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buildxact\u00a0solved Matthew&#8217;s need for speed and accuracy from takeoffs to the bidding process.
