GCPay

Easy option for project billing

Kommentare: GCPay allows out accounting and project management teams to work together when it comes to billing. It is clear to see problems that have popped up and to integrate it with our accounting programs.

Vorteile:

GC Pay allows subcontractors to bill individually for each project with ease. It is clear to use and helps keep the digital paper trail with easy to read audit reports.

Nachteile:

The inability for companies to make changes to their login with out calling GC PAY is a little frustrating.

Michael Lyon Review

Kommentare: I really do enjoy it. I've used both Procore and Textura and neither of those softwares are as efficient. I think GCPay has several simple, but very handle features that make me like it the most. It can be a bit expensive for smaller projects, but is a minor cost for a larger project. Seperating/breaking down pricing by project size/dollar value could be helpful for the smaller projects.

Vorteile:

The user interface is extremely easy, allowing subcontractor to have few issues in submitting pay apps, creating SOV's, etc. Easy to talk through things with the phone. I also really like the ability to make it a requirement of attaching a lien waiver and having current insurance before they can submit a pay application.

Nachteile:

I'd really like if the monthly cost bundle report could be separated/organized by division and not alphabetically. The alphabetical is never in order for the bank/owner compiled report, so each month I have to manually put them in order. An option to say what division/spec section the pay application is for would easily allow these reports to come across in the order they are needed. Needs better integration with Viewpoint Vista, specifically for pay application submission, as right now we still have to manually input sub pay apps into our accounting softwares which actually cut the checks.

Streamline Your Subcontractor Paperwork

Kommentare: Great! Easy to use and Support is awesome.

Vorteile:

GC Pay is easy to use. It organizes all the pay apps and waivers in one location. It gives the subcontractors more involvement and knowledge of their payment and waiver statuses and reduces redundancy for the GC. It also leads the sub through the application submission process.

Nachteile:

It doesn't prefill the Subcontractor Affidavit.

Great Customer Service

Kommentare: Our accounting team has pay apps taken off their plate which allows them to be more efficient in others areas of their work.

Vorteile:

Customer service has been terrific in handling questions/fixes.

Nachteile:

Integration with our current software provides challenges. Although it relieves AP from the duty, it adds extra work for the PA's (syncing, receiving compliance, adding subs, extra email notifications, checking waivers, etc. One of the challenges that holds us back is we cant add a subcontract/subcontractor until they create an account. This is not a smooth process.

Best Option for Subcontractors

Kommentare: Overall, no software can beat GCPay
love lien waivers & shifting the burden to our subs

Vorteile:

Automation, risk mitigation and bet of all lien waivers hassle free

Nachteile:

We are looking for subs to enter change orders and we approve them per the project approval hierarchy

Great Product, Support and Value

Kommentare: From implementation it has been a very smooth process with plenty of support along the way. We utilize GCPay as a GC and Sub on all of our projects. It is extremely efficient from the start of each project and clear whose court the ball is in when there are pending items. It is a great product and value and we can't imagine life without it.

Vorteile:

GCPay has greatly increased efficiency in our organization. It is easy to use for both general contractor and subcontractors and they provide 24/7 support which is extremely valuable in this industry. Periodic updates are made to increase the user interface and add features based on user feedback and common sense.

Nachteile:

I would like to see a feature to provide subtotals on subcontractor schedule of values/billings either by phase (minimum) or by some other grouping/sorting method. This would add more value to the subcontractor billings on large projects to see % complete based on building/level/area/etc. We are still pending integration with Vista as the initial integration product was not successful.

Capterra Review

Vorteile:

Tracking the subs billing, compliance and lien waivers

Nachteile:

Would like to be able to change the default retention for just certain subs within a project.

Highly Recommend GcPay for your business needs!

Kommentare: Very positive, user friendly, and outstanding customer support.

Vorteile:

Easy system to navigate & great customer support.

Nachteile:

Nothing negative to say about GcPay, they are great.

Sub contractor waivers

Vorteile:

GC Pay has made getting sub contractor waivers easy. It has saved me a lot of time. They also have the friendliest customer service.

Nachteile:

GC Pay makes getting sub waivers easier, but I wish the process for tier vendor waivers could be better.

GCPay review

Kommentare: This has improved my workflow and time management not having to manually enter invoices into our system and putting the responsibility on the subcontractor.

Vorteile:

It's easy to navigate and see where things are at. Also the customer service text box is wonderful!

Nachteile:

On the main screen when viewing the payments/amounts, I do wish it showed the entire amount of their billing, not just the amount to be paid (when retention is held).

Highly complex

Vorteile:

Once learned, very great way to use a third party system for handling payments.

Nachteile:

As a payment portal, the fewer number of Barries you put between a client and the servicer, the better. This is not the case in many ways for this software

Best support team I have ever worked with

Kommentare: We were actually beginning to put out feelers for a software development company to build an application we could use for tracking Pay Apps when we stumbled on GC Pay. It had everything we wanted and then some so our experience has been great! Everyone through the whole process has been extremely helpful and ready to help us use GC Pay to its full extent.

Vorteile:

GC Pay makes tracking Pay Applications very streamlined and efficient. Its for the most part the application is intuitive and user friendly and for the few occasions when it is necessary to contact support they are immediately available, always a real person, and not only solve your issue, but usually give you some tips and tricks to make things easier going forward.

Nachteile:

The list of options may be a little intimidating when you are first setting up, to know what to default to for your company setting, but again, talk it through with your support rep and they will walk you through the process very quickly. The only issue we have not been able to resolve is some type of confirmation that Pay App reminders are being auto-emailed to our Subcontractors each month. We are told it is happening, but have been unable to resolve a way that we can confirm they are actually going out.

The only way to handle trade pay apps

Kommentare: GCPay has been my #1 software since I implemented it 10+ years ago. The integration with originally timberline was a huge step for us to bring tech into construction. The ease of use to track when pay applications were submitted, lien management and the audit trail are key features. When the secondary tier grid came out it was a game changer for us to monitor what materials were delivered to site vs what the trades turned in. It allows our superintendents to approve or decline pay applications which gives them ownership in the process.

Vorteile:

GC pay is extremely easy to use and has the functionality to manage the trade workflow throughout the pay application process. Excellent customer service to handle questions. Continually improving the software over the years. It’s also a full paperless process.

Nachteile:

I would like to see the trade process managed from onboarding. To able to house documents associated with the trades. Also a mobile app for superintendents.

GCPay Review

Kommentare: Fantastic. Their customer service is amongst the best I've ever encountered.

Vorteile:

The ease of use is our favorite aspect of this software. We also appreciate the 24/7 support and all the different ways we can utilize support (phone, email, chat). Most of the customizations we needed to make this product work in the capacity we need it to, were able to be implemented.

Nachteile:

Its a bit on the expensive side but considering the peace of mind we have now that we've implemented it, the cost is something we can accept.

Easy but it works

Kommentare: Simple product that just works. Customer support for subcontractors and internal staff is great. All of our project managers love this tool. It saves time on both subcontractor side and project manager approval side. Subcontractors can only draw on approved contracts and change orders and with all compliance documents submitted. Subcontractor has the option to receive payment via ACH.

Vorteile:

GCpay is simple to use, from subcontractor registration to submission, project manager approval, compliance collections to payment. Their license model makes this product very inexpensive compared to their competitors.

Nachteile:

No ability to customize reporting or API. You can download reports into Excel but this can be tedious and 1 contract at a time. Setup can be tedious as well since you can only upload SOV one contract at a time by the end user. Their development team is very small, hence sometimes slow response.

Grove Review- Ed Martin

Kommentare: Great , Customer Service is EXCELLENT and supports with help quickly and effectively. Overall it is a great product, it has a few small quirks but overall makes Construction billing periods way easier as a Gen Contractor with 40 + Subs.

Vorteile:

Able to calculate 40 + Subs on Monthly Draws and keeping all issues minimal where everything is input by subs or myself with adding totals and clicking buttons upon review. No Traditional Pay Aps with Hard Plugging. Extremely easy to use.

Nachteile:

If you move to faster with Rejecting Pay Aps, Then approving Change orders and retotaling and resubmitting pay ap with CO and correct totals for billing. Some times it doesnt upload the current Pay ap in PDF viewing where G702 and SOV totals mis- match. Not a consistent issue but happens from time to time.

GCPay Software Review

Vorteile:

The features I like most in GCPay.com is the ease of reviewing and approving of lien waivers and that they offer a place to track lower tier suppliers/subcontractors electronically so that it eliminates many errors and revisions that would take place often.

Nachteile:

I would like to see a tracking system that could be used for diversity and inclusion and tracking manhours and cost of work done by MBE, WBE, etc. contractors. I also think it would be beneficial to have your own dashboard be the main home page when you open the website and custom reports would be a nice feature as well.

Great product and great value

Vorteile:

GC Pay allows us to keep a lean staff while providing the same level of service to other divisions of the company. The ease of use for us and subcontractors has completely changed the nature of our Project Accountants (focusing on volume and cost as opposed to compliance). The Compliance tracking and collection is nearly automatic and invaluable.

Nachteile:

I think hourly reporting in GC Pay should be the next feature to consider/upgrade. 100% of our projects have workforce goals, and that is an area that is lacking.

GC Pay for a Project Assistant

Kommentare: It has been great so far. GC Support has been amazing as well.

Vorteile:

It's great for tracking documents for each specific subcontractor, showing what is still needed or out of compliance.

Nachteile:

It can be confusing for someone not in accounting. It seems complex sometimes.

Basic but High-Performing

Kommentare: GC Pay does what we need it to do, and does that well. We sometimes get pushback about asking subcontractors to use it, but 99 out of 100 times people find it to be easier than whatever method they were using before. It's a simple system that makes billing easier for us and our subcontractors. It works well for us.

Vorteile:

We rely on GC Pay for ease of use. It's slightly more basic than some competitive products, but we find this is a huge benefit for users.

Nachteile:

It doesn't integrate with our other software.

GCPay is Awesome!

Vorteile:

The product is simple to use and all the documents are able to be located with ease. It also allows for less of a need for physical paper. Documents are able to be processed faster/more efficiently and our customers are able to receive payment quicker due to this.

Nachteile:

For my experience, I have not encountered a negative experience other than it keeps logging me out on Google Chrome after a few days.

Analyst Review

Kommentare: GC Pay has streamlined our subcontract process and we (and all of our subs) love it! Customer service team (espeically [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]) is fantastic.

Vorteile:

The ease of use is the best. This software is not intimidating and can be used by anyone at any level.

Nachteile:

It's frustrating how it automatically approves negative CO's. I would love to be able to have the sub break those out.

Great subcontractor payment processing portal

Kommentare: Payment coordination between our accounting software and subcontractor seems to flow much easier due to GCPay. Communications is also important, which GCPay allows comments to be processed along with each pay application.

Vorteile:

Easy of storing all schedule of values, liabilities and insurance in one place. Also, very helpful in getting subcontractor invoices and information into the system to be able to review quickly and easily.

Nachteile:

Lien waivers might be made a little easier to upload to and from sub tiered vendors.

Streamlines billings

Vorteile:

Customer support is always available and helpful. Helps make our billing process run smoothly.

Nachteile:

Some processes are still very manual. Subcontractor communication -- would like more info displayed such as payment date, compliance issues, etc more easily available so that we get less emails and phone calls.

My GC Pay expierence

Kommentare: Love it

Vorteile:

I love that I don't have to keep an excel spreadsheet of contract amounts and new change orders and revised contract amounts.

Nachteile:

I do not like the GC Pay fees at the end of the project Someway the GC pay fee should be automatically be billed into the pay app that is being submitted. A the end of the billing you still have to submit another change order for the last pay app you just submitted. Its kind of never ending if you don't know how to /bill/pay the last fee outside of the contract Also, To many email notifications when you approve 1 pay app
