Very irritating to use. – Adam Westphal – Olympia, WA
I installed the program quickly and easily. I played with it briefly after installing and was looking foward to creating my first estimate on a flight from Seattle to Phoenix.

I bought the program to help estimate my budget while being my own general contractor to build a house, however this program is more pointed to the professional contractor who knows all the steps and pieces that go into a comprehensive estimate.
