Bewertungen über InSite Elevation Pro
My Company has been a user of Insite software for 24 years
Kommentare:
I would highly recommend Insite & Field General.
I use Insite for our earthwork quantities, pipe excavation and backfill quantities, subgrade material quantities, finish grade quantities asphalt, concrete and topsoil. And fine the quantities to be very accurate. I use Field General for our field survey and GPS layout. I build my own TINS for our GPS machine control. They are very accurate and easy to build in Field General.
Vorteile:
Insite/ Field General has always been on the cutting edge of the technology. Whether it's been digitizer takeoff, PDF takeoff or CAD takeoff
Nachteile:
Some of the reports could be a little more detailed. But all in all everything is okay

Rick: We appreciate your kind words. We are just about to launch new classes for building models with Field General. Watch the newsletter for details. Let's screen share and find out what it is you are looking for in reports.
User Friendly Program
Kommentare: Overall this program has helped our company feel more confident about the cut/fill numbers we are using.
Vorteile:
I appreciate how straight forward the program is. I am able to use this product to visualize the proposed site which is useful in figuring the logistics of the project.
Nachteile:
Sometimes reading the reports can be a little confusing but it takes practice to understand.

Elevation Pro Review
Kommentare: I'm happy with it. Certain things such as a freehand mode could make it easier to use, but it allows me to perform takeoffs quickly and accurately.
Vorteile:
Takeoff can be done very quickly. Alignment is easy. Simple to make adjustments if there's a mistake.
Nachteile:
When using some messy vectorized PDFs, the magnetic feature can jump around a lot.
Antwort von InSite Software
vor 2 Jahren
Adam, thank you for your review. You can see why we decided to develop an entirely new product using our years of experience. We appreciate your business running both. "Messy vectorized PDFs" often have layer management. A good technique is to select a feature to find what layer it is on and shut of the rest. If it's not layered, the magnetic selection is really there to help, but you need to learn the technique of effectively using it. There is a really good video called "Magnetic Endpoint Selection" in Help/Video Tutorials that explains the technique really well. Learning this will speed your takeoffs even more.
Great software
Kommentare: All in all it’s a great Softwear. I’ve used a other company program and had lots of issues with inconsistencies. Since switching to Insite we’ve been able to generate a more consistent bid.
Vorteile:
How simple it was to pick up and start working with it.
Nachteile:
I would like to see a change or improvement on the offset tool. It at times can be daunting

Jason, thank you for the review. We are close to releasing Elevation, which replaces the offset tool to streamline the process of modeling. Make sure you are signed up for our Newsletter (insitesoftware.com/support) to keep abreast of what is happening!
22 years of Insite!!
Kommentare: InSite has been great. I started my career using InSite and when I moved to another company, they were using Paydirt and that really was a downgrade. After a couple years, i was able to convince them to switch to InSite Sitework an everyone has been happy ever since.
Vorteile:
I have been using InSite Sitework since I graduated College way back in 1998. This software was so easy to learn by a kid who didn't really know anything about dirt at the time. It really did help me learn about the industry from a hands on experience from the office to the field. I don't recall how many times I have called support, but each time has been a great learning experience.
Nachteile:
Not to many, but i would only suggest adding perimeter lengths to subgrades since we need to know some lengths around buildings and parking lots. We have to trace some of these twice to get the info we need. Also add the surface area of rock alert so we could figure out areas to drill. (this has only been an issue a few times over my career). Lastly, the shrink/swell is a little different thinking than us dirt guys use. We tend to just do this by hand on our own. The theory is close but we approach it a little differently than the software.

InSite Estimating Software
Kommentare: My experience with learning the the software program and knowing the software personally has made me more valuable to the owner of the company, thus my level of pay has increased. To the owner he know that he will get a accurate takeoff, knowing the quantities are spot on and I can produce more work, which means more jobs can be taken off in a short period of time.
Vorteile:
InSite software has been a fantastic tool for me, I have been using the program for 10 years now and has saved me so much time on estimating a project. Just that in itself pays for the program. I have found that the quantities it provides is spot on. It takes a lot of the guesswork out on bidding, knowing that you know your material quantities and how much excavation it takes to get the job to subgrade elevations. The program was easy to learn, I like the way the team at InSite is there to help you if you have questions about the program. I like how they keep upgrading the software each year to make my job easier. I would recommend taking the classes they offer when first starting out with this program. It will make the learning curve come much quicker. One other thing I like is the result print outs, they are easy to read and comprehend. I have to admit that Insite has made my job much easier, and that means more jobs can be bid in a short amount of time.
Nachteile:
There's not really anything that I don't like about this software.

Cedar Lane InSite Takeoff
Kommentare: I like the program a lot. I wasn't sure how it could be better than the original program, but somehow they did it. It's much faster and easier to use.
Vorteile:
I love the ease of use. The controls are very user friendly. The program is excellent at snapping to lines for grades, stripping and subgrades, making the takeoff fast, easy and accurate. I love that you can adjust the point spacing to make thing run smoother and faster as well.
Nachteile:
I miss the fact that it doesn't have the utility feature anymore. It was nice to have everything in one package.

Sam, thank you for the great review. You hit on the reason we started over with Elevation Pro even though SiteWork was very productive. Faster and Easier always means more production and that is why we exist. Of course Validation is critical in communicating results to your team and partners. As for utility takeoff, we are using the same mindset to develop the industries most productive solution using the excellent building blocks in the Elevation Pro platform. Keep an eye here for details. https://insitesoftware.com/page/utility-takeoff/
Great for site work takeoffs
Vorteile:
This software is my go to for takeoffs with a pdf or even a cad file. Super simple to use and very efficient and time saving once you get the features figured out. They have recently stepped up their game in upgrading and updating the software so i expect to see more and more features in the future.
Nachteile:
Limited in the modeling from other software i have used. But as i said, they keep rolling out more features. I expect this to change as time goes on.

Chris: Thank you for the review. Currently you need to have Field General to export models. This will soon change to allow BIM export and TIN models for simpler projects. More complicated projects (ex: roadwork with vertical curves) will still require Field General Office. Details will be available soon.

Insite Elevation Pro Review
Kommentare: Overall experience is good. Good customer service
Vorteile:
Elevation Pro is much better than the previous version. Its easy to use and the multi page alignment is quick and easy.
Nachteile:
Sometimes the proposed lines are difficult if trying to do them automatically.

Must-Use Software!
Kommentare: I have had the pleasure of using InSite Elevation Pro and talking with the customer service/ support whenever I have questions about the software. Their support is unlike any other company I have contacted as they are highly trained and experts on their software. I am always able to find a solution within minutes of contacting them. It speaks volumes and shows a company cares about its users when it has a good customer service team.
Vorteile:
The thing that I enjoy the most about InSite Elevation Pro is that it is a constantly evolving software, with new updates rolling out consistently through the year. The node snapping is super useful and saves so much time when tracing gradelines, subgrades, and strip areas.
Nachteile:
The only feature that I feel could be improved is with the subgrades and stripping. If a higher tier subgrade/ strip area overlaps a lower tier subgrade/ strip area, there should not be a blending of the two colors, as it makes it a little confusing. Instead, the higher tier should override like it did in the previous versions.

John, thank you for the great review. Our support team is usually on the end of "I have a problem" call/email and these reviews are great to show them, so they know how much they are appreciated. As for the shading of Subgrades and Stripping. The Takeoff window gives you the true look at what the stacking is doing, just like before. We have heard your comment before, and we have a significant improvement coming. Keep loading the updates!
User for over 20 years
Kommentare: I appreciate InSite for adding features and improvements. Keep making the software better and more powerful as it helps us get an edge over our competitors.
Vorteile:
Ease of use is the best quality. I started in the 1990's with a little coaching from a coworker. I never had to use the tutorial or manual but I will use the manual now as I am on the elderly end of life. Several of my employers over the years had Agtek software which forced me to learn it but while Agtek had many features it was more difficult to learn and not as user friendly. I was happy to get back to InSite and do not want any other brand.
Nachteile:
That the company is located in too cold a place which keeps me from visiting or taking a class. Come to North Carolina with your training classes!

All of our training classes are available on line so you can stay in your air-conditioned office and learn! And we have moved the Advanced Class at our training facility into November where the weather isn't too bad.
Great Civil take off tool
Kommentare: I have been using Insite software for about 7 or so years. I originally was trained with a competitors software and wanted to move to on screen takeoffs to help with efficiency and handle a heavy work load. This software and the tools within have really come to help understand some projects and what was really involved to get the work done. This is a great tool for small to large projects, one phase or many. The strata cut information and ability to adjust the expansion/compaction of different soil classifications is very useful to help keep the estimate realistic. I have found the Insite team to be very helpful over the years with whatever support item I may have had.
Vorteile:
I have enjoyed using this software for years. It is fairly intuitive and designed to keep you working efficiently. The 3D live feature is a great help when inputting data points and topography. This feature helps with helping to confirm design from the drawings to help sort out pre-construction issues. The strata information really helps to understand the materials that will be cut during the project, assuming there is a soils report.
Nachteile:
Not much that I don't like. There are a few commands that are used in competitive software that a similar feature would be nice.

Bill: Thank you for your review. We are constantly updating the software. Please contact us about any suggestions you may have. Many of our best features come from customers suggestions.
Good Standard for Digital Take Offs
Vorteile:
InSite Software pays for itself. From increased efficiency (literally 3x faster for us) to more accurate take offs, we couldn’t operate without it!
Nachteile:
Some of the less frequently used features feel clunky. Too many clicks to achieve results. Switching between sections causes issues with 3D

Insite Elevation Pro 6 Stars!
Kommentare: I have had a great experience with InSite Elevation Pro. Leveraging its powerful features to improve project outcomes, while benefiting from its user-friendly interface and customizable design options has been incredible.
Vorteile:
Insite is a powerful tool, It has accurate elevation measurements, an easy to use interface, easily integrates with other software and is very customizable.
Nachteile:
When creating a subgrade, contour, stripping area, site boundary, etc. Not being able to add a point is frustrating. You either have to add another one or delete it and redraw it if you don't have enough points.
Antwort von InSite Software
vor 2 Jahren
Evan, thank you for 6 Stars! About adding points: Take a look at lesson 10.04 Most of the time the spacing tool is used to lesson points, but you can also use it to add points. Another more surgical way to add points is described in 21.02 Intersect - Add Points. We hope this helps!
I like it!
Kommentare: It changed all my way to do estimates. I hope the development team continues improving the software.
Vorteile:
I like the way the software gives the information, and the reports, because of the list of materials. Digitizing is quite easy with this software, a small child can do it.
Nachteile:
Many times the addition of new planes makes the software a little slow, making the typing equally slow.

Efrain, Thank you for the nice review. If loading plans is slowing things down, make sure you have enough ram on your machine. Also, please read the information listed on our website under FAQS/system requirements, especially the part about file storage, Finally, always look for the blue update icon! We are constantly improving the software.
Great, easy to use program with terrific customer service
Vorteile:
With the latest update, InSite Elevation Pro is definitely the most user friendly earthwork software that I have used in order to generate cut / fill quantities and to generate some other useful images as well. The software allows you to build 3d models with a click of a button, and cut / fill shading schemes which allow for great visual presentations. The plans can also be exported to Google Earth Pro which is also a really useful feature. Training and customer support are also top notch. If there is a question about the software, chances are the answer is right in the user manual with a video to accompany it.
Nachteile:
There are a few features that have not yet been transferred to the newest update of elevation pro (mainly area cut / fill), but from what I have heard, these features, plus more will be coming soon. I do not have many cons with this software.

Great product
Kommentare: my overall experience has been amazing, I don't have a background in estimating and as little as 10 months I am doing live estimates for the company I work for. and it has show me great things and a new tool for my professional career.
Vorteile:
Its a very friendly user software that will help you tackle any take off with ease. This program facilitates the workload and helps you with efficiency. The productivity in our office skyrocket after the usage of the software due to the fact we are able to process and tackle more estimates at the time.
Nachteile:
The only complain that I would have is that some functions are not very intuitive to the new user, and functions commands make the software become easier but they don't show you all the short commands that will help you in a job take off.

Pleased with InSite Sitework
Kommentare: Pleased. This was our first heads up with no paper drawing estimating software. Would hate to go back to tracing contours on paper drawings.
Vorteile:
While researching what earthwork calculation software we were going to purchase it became obvious that the learning curve for the software we initially intended on purchasing was significant. It seemed to be made more for design than estimating. That lead us to InSite. We found InSite software was made for estimators. We have been pleased with it's ease of use and post sale support.
Nachteile:
Not much. Sometimes, depending on how the engineer created the vector pdf drawings, we seem to have difficulties getting proposed grades to auto trace efficiently.

Insite Review
Vorteile:
The accuracy and speed of the tracing function has cut my grading takeoff time in half. This function shines brightest when using a cad file.
Nachteile:
Aligning multiple PDf sheets to each other can be very time consuming.Insite used to have a feature where you could outline an area in the grading plan and it would tell you how much cut or fill was in that specific boundary. I found this to be very useful. I have not been able to find this feature since the update and wish it was still available.
Antwort von InSite Software
vor 2 Jahren
David, thanks you for the positive review. We are currently working on that feature, so help is on the way. As for Aligning PDFs, having multiple documents open to allow two point node based alignment makes Elevation Pro the best in class. It's unfortunate that coordinate data is lost when creating PDFs and alignment is necessary.
Been a loyal customer for a long time

Thank you, Levi for the Review. One of our design goals was to make the product as easy to use as we can, given the complexity of modern earthwork takeoff. We do work hard to provide great training materials (Help/User Manual and/or Video Tutorials) and we offer a live training class almost daily and a more advanced one weekly as part of your subscription. To access, choose Help/Training. They are most weekdays at 1PM Eastern Time.
