## Reviews

### "Happy to partner with Estimating Link\!" — 5.0/5

> **Dylan** | *16 February 2025* | Construction software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The team at EL is there for you at every step of the way through onboarding into full time use. They are extremely knowledgeable, personable, \&amp; helpful in every aspect. They tailor your acct software to you specifically unlike most software's on the market. Best part of all, they understand construction, earthwork, \&amp; underground, \&amp; heavy civil.
> 
> **Cons**: No complaints, EL team is great. They handle business.
> 
> Fantastic, 10/10\! I would recommend EL to anybody looking to elevate their estimating department without integrating some of the industry standard software's that small - midsize contractors are out priced on.

> 
> **Pros**: Easier to setup and use than Heavy Bid. Onboarding was easy, done over teleconference call.
> 
> **Cons**: Had an issue initially with the setup. Windows 11 did not recognize SQL 2014 server. Support was wonderful, addressed the issue and I was up and running within 30 minutes\!

### "What a relief" — 5.0/5

> **Zach** | *13 November 2024* | Construction software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
>

>

### "The Construction Link Estimating" — 5.0/5

> **Alex** | *2 August 2024* | Construction software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to use. You're able to save all your crew and equipment rates. And also change those rates to include overtime if that's needed. You can look at previous jobs that you've put together. The move money feature is really nice, and I like how it breaks down all your equipment, labor, material, or anything you have in a bid.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't found anything bad about it yet.
> 
> I couldn't be happier with The Construction Link. We are a small company that was looking to update the way we estimate but didn't want to pay the big down payment for something we didn't know if we'd need. The construction link offered a monthly payment option which was very nice so we could make sure this was something we wanted. \[sensitive content hidden\]  and the team there were awesome to work with and are always there to help if needed. We are extremely happy with the construction link and would highly recommend to anyone.
