“Glad we made the move to BluVue”
Pros
Every time something goes wrong, the BluVue team jumps on it fast and figures out a solution. Their customer service has been awesome, very responsive and helpful.
Cons
The whole master vs. personal setting on user profiles can be very confusing. Some of our team members don't even realize their notes aren't visible to others unless they manually switch the setting. It would be great if that was more obvious.

“Love the convenience of having all projects on my phone”
Pros
I like having all my projects right on my phone. It's very handy to pull up plans quickly when I'm on a job site or doing a walk through. I also bring all my plans to coordination meetings now and it's made it way easier to keep track of notes, answer questions and make changes on the fly.
Cons
Once I calibrate a measurement on one sheet, I wish that setting would carry over to the rest of the sheets automatically. Would save a lot of time.

“Good features for the price but struggles with large projects”
Pros
For the price, it's got a lot of great features. Definitely feels like I'm getting good value out of it.
Cons
Trying to set up large projects all at once can get a bit finicky. Sometimes it struggles when handling a lot of stuff at the same time.
