Summer Nights, Coffee, Chocolate, Dashpivot by Sitemate... These are a few of my favorite things....
- Soooooooo easy to set up and use! So user friendly a monkey could do it.
- Customer support is phenomenal. Phone, email, online chat. Easy to follow instructional videos. No call centre in Thailand.
- I love that you can use pre-filled data. Type up lists once and NEVER have to hand type them again! Just click!
- Tagging! Being able to categorise photos to particular categories for enhanced search functions. Brilliant!
- Fully flexible customisation. All the templates we have created we have had full creative capabilities with. I haven't found anything yet that I wanted to do that couldn't be done. I was even able to add three pages of terms and conditions to a purchase order template.
Cons
- If Dashpivot could make me a cup of coffee, it would be perfect!
- Very affordable, doesn't break the bank at all.
- Saves at us money ten fold in the time we save.
- Could potentially save us thousands if we need to rely on information to support a claim or variation - we have evidence from site captured daily!! There are many scenarios from the past (before we had Dashpivot) that we spent hours going through emails and texts messages trying to find a photo to prove something happened BEFORE a particular date. Luckily we were able to find something and it saves us $40K. With Dashpivot, we will always have this information safe and easily accessible.
- Site Diaries
- Purchase Orders
- Variations
- Checklists
- Keeping account of a large variation - tracking tonnes of spoil removed from site
- Tracking quantities of how much concrete is being poured on site
- Site Manager is taking a photo on his phone of dockets and uploading them as photos tagged "reimbursements" so I can see what he is spending instead of getting a shoe box of receipts at the end of the week! or worse, month! And none of the receipts will be lost.
- We are only just beginning.... we think of new things every day!! We are really only limited by our imagination.
- We are going to find a way to store SWMS, Insurance documents and Contracts for Sub Contractors
- Ask me again in a few weeks and I am sure we will have found a whole other list of things to use it for!
- Tracking when rego's are due on all the vehicles and site vans!
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
- Implemented in-house
- I lost sleep because I was so excited to set up new templates I stayed up way too late playing.
- We no longer need the piles of paper forms we printed for site as they are now all digital. Poor trees.
- Setting up templates is a breeze!
- Navigating between the company level and project level is simple.
- Viewing saved data is simple
- Converting to email or hard copy is simple
- Hard copy versions look so professional!
- None. It's all easy. Haven't found any of it difficult to use.
