Pros

It is so simple to navigate that it lets you amend and correct your processing without restarting everything. It also allows for reviewing and making changes.

Cons

I have to input most data manually, so it would be great if there was a way to import data, like bank statements, directly into the system.

Pros

The interface is intuitive for attaching quotes and escalating them for approval through various stages, ensuring everyone is aware of procurements. It's also simple to insert prices and suppliers and extract requisitions into an Excel sheet.

Cons

The reporting system is not very effective. For instance, if I need a report on items procured for a specific job, BuildSmart doesn't have that option; I have to pull the project items and then select them for the specific job. Adding this feature would make BuildSmart great.
