In my experience, ConstructConnect is an unreliable and unresponsive company
This is useless.

- Business Problems Solved
Users rely on ConstructConnect's database to qualify and track building projects, allowing them to measure success in growing awareness in the bid/spec market through marketing programs. However, there have been reports of the cloud-based software system being unreliable, with some users uncertain if it will work upon sign-on. Inconvenience has also been expressed by users who have had to sign on twice in a row to gain access.
Despite these challenges, many users find value in utilizing the software for various purposes. For example, it is commonly used to identify engineering firms that specify their product as well as their competitors' products for potential outreach. Additionally, the software is utilized to present lunch and learns with the goal of expanding sales in the commercial marketplace.
Another key use case of ConstructConnect is its ability to provide insights into upcoming jobs available for bidding. Construction companies greatly benefit from this feature as they are able to find new or existing projects that align with their specific parameters and search for projects that require certain products. The software primarily caters to sales and estimating teams, although managers occasionally utilize it to scout for products of interest to add to their distribution list.
Furthermore, users leverage ConstructConnect's software to pull sales leads within industries where their company's products are used. These leads can then be distributed among representatives in different locations. However, it is worth mentioning that there have been some negative experiences expressed by users. Specifically, certain individuals have found the daily email with repetitive and unhelpful leads disappointing and feel that the service does not meet their expectations.

- They have a relatively comprehensive list of jobs available. However these jobs are available on other platforms as well.
- Customer service is definitely lacking. Trying to get clear answers from my rep was difficult.
- My sales rep was not trustworthy to do what he said and was only concerned about their own bottom line. Instead of trying to cultivate a long term customer we were treated as just another number and another couple of zeros on their balance sheet.
