BuildXact is a well-liked AU estimating and job management tool for residential builders — takeoffs, quotes and simple job tracking. If you're evaluating alternatives for estimating & job management (resi/light commercial), here is what SiteLive does differently — fairly stated, so you can choose with your eyes open.
Most teams don't switch because their current tool is bad — they switch because the work outgrows it. The common thread we hear: records live in one system, the programme in another, the claim in a third, and nothing proves anything when a dispute lands. SiteLive was built as one operating system where the records generate themselves from the work and stand up as evidence.
The honest way to evaluate an alternative is side by side on a live job. SiteLive's 7-day free trial gives you the full platform — set up a project, run a week of sign-ons, bookings and captures, and see what the records look like at the end of it.
