This customization ensures that permissions align with the organization’s workflow and hierarchy. > > **Cons**: There might be constraints in customizing certain features or workflows to fully match specific organizational needs, which can be a drawback for highly specialized projects. > > Great experience with software. It generally needs time to get used to. ----- ### "LOVE Praesto\!" — 5.0/5 > **Shirlene** | *19 June 2015* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The staff at BaseBuilders have been so easy to work with\! After spending 16 months unsuccessfully trying to implement a different software, we were leery of investing a lot of time and money into yet another product. I made an online query about price and within an hour we got a phone call. We were able to schedule a webinar for the next day and a second the following week for our owners. We were already using QuickBooks (QB) prior to the unsuccessful launch so Praesto seemed to be a natural fit for us. I created a new QB file so it would be easy to track how Praesto integrated with QB. With BaseBuilders support and the tools they have available, I was ready to go live in less than 6 weeks. It would have taken less time if I started the process before the 1st of the year and not 6 weeks after. That 6 weeks included the time it took to create the new QB file with all year-to-date transactions. The software is easy and almost fun to use, the data it provides is very useful and it all just makes sense\! If we have questions or problems, the staff at BaseBuilders is super responsive\! They regularly reach out to us if they haven't heard from us to make sure we are happy with the program. A huge selling point to this program was that we got all of the features WITH unlimited technical support for one very affordable price. > > **Cons**: After 5 months, I haven't found anything I don't like about BaseBuilders or Praesto. I might be a little biased after the experience with the product we were unsuccessful in implementing, but any issues we've had have been quickly and successfully addressed. ----- ### "Good bones but in need of new interface" — 3.0/5 > **Bekah** | *6 January 2022* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ability to add consultants on projects and being able to set their fee up as part of the project fee or additional. Being able to track pay requests and pay outs is very ideal. > > **Cons**: The interface is hard to use and it's difficult to search and find items in lists. ----- ### Review — 4.5/5 > **Anthony** | *12 April 2012* > > We have been using Project Management software on the Macintosh for the last twelve years and this is simply the program "You Must Have" if you are in the A/E community. Not only is this a robust solution to Digital Project Management, but it also runs on the Macintosh by using Filemaker as the database. We have been working with BaseBuilders for over a year now and have watched this program blossom into a very robust solution that covers every aspect of a project's life from proposal to closeout. Implementation was straightforward. We where running ArchiOffice and the data generated from that program was easily transferred to the new system. BaseBuilders to this day have always been simply a phone call away and the Owner actually calls you to help you resolve problems. The program allows you to develop proposals, track time and cost and then convert that proposal into a live project. Forecasting of cash flow and the project tracking of payables and receivables has been an invaluable tool for our firm. We recently installed the latest upgrade and where happy to see a few of the upgrades we had requested from BaseBuilders to handle administrative duties during construction. Simply stated, software is only as good as the customer support behind it, and everyone writing and selling software should take a lesson or two from these guys. ----- ### "Good software to track time, mileage, and project billing" — 4.0/5 > **justin** | *16 August 2018* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to set up projects and have multiple people log their hours. Far easier than doing it manually. Makes end of the month timekeeping and billing much easier. Being able to link Praesto with Quickbooks is a huge plus. > > **Cons**: The program tends to slow my computer down when using the software. It would be nice if the software was cloud-based rather than server-based ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2053422/base-builders?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2053422/base-builders) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
