Opiniones de Fieldwire

Excelente app para control de calidad en obra

Comentarios: Excelente me encanta la app, la uso a diario

Puntos a favor:

Facil de usar y configurar, podemos implementarlo y usar nuestros formularios sin problemas

Puntos en contra:

nada , me parece una app muy completa , hasta puedes ver los 3D

I use this program every day on site!

Comentarios: I am able to coordinate with trades and consultants quickly and effectively. I can usually access drawings faster than they can when speaking over the phone. All of the files are very accessible and the program is user friendly

Puntos a favor:

-Having access to all of the drawings at your fingertips while on site -Very easy to search for information through drawings as the hyperlinks copy automatically -easy to compare new drawings to older versions -easily access all rfi's and linked files

Puntos en contra:

-Program slows down when adding mass amounts of drawings -Would be helpful to have folders within the Photos section similar to that of the Files section

Essential for Project Documentation & Organization

Comentarios: Positive, I highly recommend this software especially for any project documentation tracking purposes. Still room for improvement but I choose Fieldwire over its Autodesk competitor.

Puntos a favor:

1. Image Shared Shared Service. The whole team & subs can see image documentation in seconds. Though needs a permanent time stamp feature OPTION & native high resolution feature. 2. Reports are as detailed as you want them to be. I like that reports can be customized (though to a limited extent). You can attach images, files, plans, etc... Though upload file size limit needs to increase from 25mb max. 3. Tasks are an interesting feature still trying to implement into field use. Great that you can track tasks from text messages, emails, images, attachments, etc... Like video option but would like to see that available outside of tasks 7 attach to plan functions on all platforms even PC.

Puntos en contra:

1. No permanent Time stamp on images taken via phone. Time stamp feature is placed outside of image as reference. If image is exported their is no way to distinguish veracity of date & time taken. THIS IS MY NUMBER ONE REQUEST!!! 2. Would like to be able to attach images within Fieldwire to Daily Reports without duplicating images (that's why time stamp on image is needed). 3. Improved search capabilities. Right now searching/filtering through images is limited. Should be able to search by date range of when image taken or file uploaded as well. Their needs to be a better organizational structure for uploading images to fieldwire via app. Users should be able to search through images to attach them to pertinent documentation without creating duplicates or recreating in another format. Images should be searchable and attachable to files without them originally taken within a Fieldwire Form . 4. Attachment upload limited to 25mb. Sometimes project plans exceed 100mb. Should not need to split up submittals/rfi's/files/plans. 5. Fieldwire Upload Image documentation compression software. I use a Android Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5g, images are horribly compressed and sometimes looked pixelated. Yet with my iphone 6 (several years old) images look regular. Should be options for quality of image upload. Panoramic shots should be a feature without destroying them to under a 1mb. 6. Video recording to 8 seconds is limiting. w/ 5g phones making way video quality & length needs overhaul

Almost awesome, but has lots of missed opportunities

Comentarios: Almost zero.

Puntos a favor:

The customer service has been great ( we need to use them frequently ). They are quick to resolve the many issues we have.

Puntos en contra:

1. You can't make real templates for repetitive project types. 2. You can't organize projects on the home screen. We tend to have dozens of projects in different stages going on and there is not a way to organize how they sorted. They cannot be flagged or colored coded either. 3. In certain situations you need to follow strict naming conventions of imported files....it's not something I want to spend my time worrying about. 4. The task viewer is weak. The text doesn't wrap so most of the task is cut off. You cannot control the width of the columns, their names, or colors ( great for the color blind ) 5. Features are buried and are inconsistent between desktop and mobile. 6. The app KILLS battery life. 7. There is not a way to leave general notes or comments. 8. Reports are weak. 9. If my boss ( who doesn't actually use it, but likes the idea of the app) didn't make me, I would have ditched this a while ago.

Fieldwire Review

Comentarios: Team collaboration has improved. Plans at the click of a button.

Puntos a favor:

The software makes accessing plans and collaborating with your project team a breeze. Especially in field where managers rely on ipads, the mobile application is easy for quick scaling, take offs, etc. Not to mention the ability to link plans, RFIs, files, and forms to ensure small details and changes aren't missed. The tasks allow for project tracking, documentation, and knocking out your punch list. Not to mention, excellent customer service.

Puntos en contra:

Improve plan layering capability. Exporting plans is a pain. Should be easier to export or print directly from application, rather than sending a web link via email. Could include functions to markup photos taken using the app. That way key features in the photo could be highlighted for future reference or for others on the project team to quickly see.

Fieldwire Field Use and Notetaking

Comentarios: We use Fieldwire for reviewing drawings in the field, tagging issues, and creating reports for the contractors. With a few more customizations this tool will be ideal for us.

Puntos a favor:

The best feature of Fieldwire is the drawing management and ease of access in the field. In addition, tagging issues in the field is seamless.

Puntos en contra:

The most difficult thing to do in Fieldwire is to make handwritten notes or draw sketches on a plan using the pencil/drawing tool. The tool is extremely choppy. I typically make a pdf and import into another software for drawing or taking notes; however, I would prefer to make handwritten notes within the Fieldwire application.

Great For Viewing Plans in the Office and in the Field

Comentarios: Overall the system has been working ok. It will not allow saving a copy of files on the android device and always says "saving failed" Other than that, the platform is solid so far.

Puntos a favor:

The Plans tab is very good. The pages are automatically processed upon uploading and sent to everyone for easy access. Another great thing about the plans is the links to detail pages.

Puntos en contra:

I would like to be able to put information about the job such as the address, project manager, Suppliers, etc that would be easily accessible upon opening the project. Also needs to have a contact list where you can have customers in the list and then be able to link them to jobs or different tasks so if someone needs to contact a supplier about a delivery, they can easily see who they need to call.

My vision for the future!

Puntos a favor:

The ability to convert heavy pdf to visualization format on iPad Pro and files organization.

Puntos en contra:

The option of marking files is quite archaic, the tools are very old-fashioned. can improve the marking tools for a faster, more functional and modern style.

Great for Construction Management!

Puntos a favor:

Fieldwire has been very easy to use and helpful for me in the construction management world. It is pretty simple to learn and is not complicated at all. I use it on my iPad and on my Smartphone for the most part. If I have to write an RFI I can take picture and integrate them into the Blue prints to generate something on the spot. It is helpful you can markup any PDF drawings on your iPad or phone as well. I used Fieldwire on my last punch list walkthrough. It convenient to use it as a punch list because you can mark the items on the blue prints, take pictures, locate the problem by room, and assign the subs. Once you issue them you can filter it from any of the categories and print it off to give to the subs. I am unsure on the cost because my construction company pays for it but it sure has been helpful. I had a couple of questions and called their customer service once. Their customer service is friendly and helpful to deal with. If you are in construction management I would give them a try and see if you like it.

Puntos en contra:

I have not been able to find anything that I dislike about this software. Everything has worked as planned.

Powerful Project Management Tool.

Comentarios: Scheduling and remote project management solution with functional reporting capabilities and the collaboration is good.

Puntos a favor:

Fieldwire allows project Managers to easily monitor field work progress within various construction projects and also report on field operations very easily and effective and also on project scheduling Fieldwire is incredible.

Puntos en contra:

Never had much dislike from the software features and the implementation from the initial point was also quite easy.

A must tool for executing a job on time and accurately

Puntos a favor:

simply the ease of use. Always with me on site and in my vest. It allows me to work more efficiently and execute tasks on site without going back to the office.

Puntos en contra:

Fieldwire does not have a lot of cons and is tough to think of any. If there were any issues, Fieldwire would correct them and value our teams input

Rem from AM!!

Comentarios: Great software that will be part of our team for long!

Puntos a favor:

I love the precision picture taking, "on the spot" notifications for every member when changes to projects are made, easy note-taking on top of plans and task managing.

Puntos en contra:

Simply that I haven't had the time to go through it all already! Too much work!

Great Program for Punch!

Comentarios: This program has saved us time and money on these projects. Great way to track quality control!

Puntos a favor:

I like how easy it is to upload plans, Mark plans, take pictures and share with everyone. It makes doing punch work easier and more time effective

Puntos en contra:

I use this program every work day and it always drains my iPad battery. I don’t know if it’s a software issue or an equipment issue.

Great product

Comentarios: Fieldwire is a great app and has help me with my business immensely, the support team have alway been there and have alway responded quickly. Great job guys.👍

Puntos a favor:

Being a structural building inspector downloading plans from PDF into the drop box is great and quick and the ability to comment and hi light on the working drawings is what stirred me to this app.

Puntos en contra:

The only thing I can say negative is when writing a comment on my report, the font size automatically go’s to size 16 which I find rather small. I generally use size 30 which is more ledgible.

Works Well

Puntos a favor:

Plan markups and ability to scale/measure plans

Puntos en contra:

Some features are/aren't available depending on apple/android. Some aspects are extremely user friendly, others aren't.

Easy to use and share information

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use and share information with other users.

Puntos en contra:

Can't multi drop pins and checklists onto a plan.

All project information made portable...

Comentarios: Having the ability to measure rooms for cable lengths to connection points, measure for pass through supplies, ceiling grid layout for speaker installation, ceiling types for equipment in those areas, glass store front dimensions for scheduling systems and file access per room needs.

Puntos a favor:

The ability to have access to all the information supplied to the team, with the ease of access from mobile devices. Its almost better than having the actual paper version! Tasking ability, creating plan sub folders, individual naming of drawings, hyperlink and photo options, its a great tool and has worked great for our team with more that 240 plans uploaded.

Puntos en contra:

Closer zoom would be nice and maybe creating a way to more accurately measure with select points of that which needs measuring. Other than that everything has worked great!

Exceptional

Comentarios: It is like having a foreman on every job site right at your fingertips.

Puntos a favor:

The ease of use and ability to keep up with everything. I love having the ability to keep up with multiple sites without having to visit them. Every crew is at my fingertips.

Puntos en contra:

I have not really had any issues. Maybe a small glitch very seldomly but resolved quickly. This is a must-have for any job site big or small.

Kingston, On. Commercial development.

Comentarios: Pleased with experience with Fieldwire overall.

Puntos a favor:

Ease of access to information on one site. Ability to manipulate documentation.

Puntos en contra:

Would like to access daily reports on site by week or month to narrow search.

Review field wire

Puntos a favor:

Easy to work with. User friendly. Great interface

Puntos en contra:

Not easy to create report. The functionality of them are only one way. The filter take forever to load

Extremely useful product for construction projects

Puntos a favor:

The automatic labeling of drawings, and creating of hyperlinks between sheets

Puntos en contra:

Errors in reading sheet titles for uploaded drawing sets

Overall I like this product

Comentarios: Overall I think it is working I am currently trying to integrate it into our process.

Puntos a favor:

I like the picture and daily reporting feature we use those the most. Punchlists and reports

Puntos en contra:

I feel like it should have the ability to set a time a task is due to be done and have Fieldwire send a reminder if a task has not been completed by due date. It is difficult or I don't know how to use a picture that someone else put into fieldwire and mark it up and add to a task will working on my mobile. NO change order tab i have tried creating my own just don't have a lot of time to work on anything but work.

Very good software even with the free version

Comentarios: Very good customer service, quick support.

Puntos a favor:

Data on website and on mobile synchronized at all moment. Very good display and good functionality on the mobile. All data available very quickly, easy to follow project.

Puntos en contra:

Some views for reporting can be improved on the website. Alerts and reminders are not working well.

Usefulness is contagious

Comentarios: Absolute time savings and effectiveness in communicating and having everyone quickly on the same page.

Puntos a favor:

Exporting PDFs with all the comments and hyperlinked photos has saved our inspectors much time in archiving their findings.

Puntos en contra:

Small item I've already suggested to their customer support and they've been responsive in saying when it might be implemented, which is applying different colors to the picture icons, so we can color code our pictures.

A game changer!

Comentarios: We’ve been using Fieldwire for several months in our office and it’s made life a whole lot easier!

Puntos a favor:

Fieldwire is great for swiping through plans, marking up drawings, collaborating with your field staff and even doing quick takeoffs.

Puntos en contra:

Fieldwire’s automatic sheet naming feature is a little buggy but with a little tweaking everything will look great.
