“Great software but limited trial period”

Pros

Contractor Essentials has been an important tool for us especially for managing contracts and budgeting. The mobile app is also a great feature because it allows easy access to project details while on site. Since we started using it our team has definitely become more productive.

Cons

The free trial did not give me enough time to fully explore all the features. I would have liked to have more details about the budgeting and advanced reporting features. also even the interface is pretty easy to use but it can sometimes be a bit slow.
