“One of the most accurate project cost estimations!”
Pros
It amazes me how accurate the estimates are when I compare them with the actual ones at the end of the project. TurboBid usually gives out the closest estimate to the actual costs. Although I have only used it for small projects (houses), I believe it is possible to expand its use to larger projects.
Cons
For me, it was simply too much to take in at first because there are so many things you can do with it. Also, the customer support is good, but the time it takes to respond to minor queries is painfully slow, at least in my specific situation.

“One of the best estimation software, a perfect allrounder”
Pros
It is great that I can use TurboBid for all sorts of construction jobs I work on, ranging from residential to commercial construction and remodeling or service work. And then theres the way it is set up beautifully, like a flow chart, so that you dont miss anything when progressing through your bidding process. Also, the bid is far more accurate than what you get with other solutions. Lastly, the ease of use is commendable. Using the software comes naturally to you, and if not, the excellent customer support team is always available to go the extra mile.
Cons
Theres very little when it comes to pointing out the cons, to the point that it feels like Im nitpicking. But there are some improvements that can be made, like the inability to rework your quantities before finalizing a purchase. Or that the user experience is kind of cluttered in a sense and you have to go through individual items in the assemblies to get to where you want. But these issues are very easily solvable, and Ive heard theyre planning some upgrades to fix them.
