Software is best home inspection Software out today\!\!\! > > **Cons**: Improve the Companion App to allow more cohesiveness between the desktop \& tablet. I wish it was easier to navigate the report options to change comments \& diagrams easily. > > Customer service is outstanding and the company is always updating \& with improvements as recommendations are heard. ----- ### "Nothing but a check list and difficult to use" — 2.0/5 > **John** | *3 October 2019* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Hmmm… I sat here for two minutes, before writing this, just trying to think of something good to say about the HomeGauge software. But despite my best efforts, I can't think of anything I like about the software, itself. That said, I must complement the developer on providing above average technical support. Unfortunately their support is not enough to overcome the many missing or broken features in the HomeGauge software. > > **Cons**: Wow\! The list of issues with HomeGauge is long. 1) Windows only - won't run on Mac. 2) iPhone version crashes regularly. 3) It's nothing more than a glorified list - NO LOGIC. 4) Generated reports are hard to follow. 1) The desktop version is only available on the Windows operating system. If you use a Mac, you have to install Windows on your Mac. Surprisingly, I found that the app actually runs faster on my Mac than on a friend's PC. Go figure… But many of the features that Mac users take for granted are not available under windows. So it becomes a pain to use. 2) Although they offer a mobile version, the iPhone version is less than useless. My RV inspections take 6 to 8 hours and the iPhone version of HomeGauge would crash 3 to 8 times during an inspection. I would always lose at least the last question that I answered. But at times, I lost as many as 8 responses. Every time HomeGauge crashed on the iPhone, I would have to spend several minutes going back to figure out which questions I was going to have to answer again and then re-create those answers. Result: I lost any time that HomeGauge saved me. Really less than useless. 3) It's nothing more than a glorified list. There is NO LOGIC. Therefore the user must answer many unnecessary questions. If the RV has only 2 air conditioners, I shouldn't have to answer questions about 5 ACs. 4) The generated reports are difficult to follow (poorly structured) and only in PDF. There is no built-in color coding. > > Frustrating. Infuriating. Aggravating. Exasperating. I'm a computer geek. I can usually overcome most any software obstacle, if the software is even remotely functional. But every time I came up with a work-around for some HomeGauge limitation, 2 more would pop up. Their customer support is above average. But good customer support is not enough to overcome the many software limitations of the desktop version and the broken iPhone version. I ended up switching to iAuditor, which is a far superior product that surprisingly, costs much less. Do yourself a favor. Avoid HomeGauge like the plague. It's a time waster. ----- ### "Homegauge is the Key to my success\!" — 5.0/5 > **Aulden** | *3 June 2023* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 17 years ago I started my inspection business with a notepad and a camera hanging around my neck. I developed my own website and added content as often as I could with 100's of hours invested. Early on I realized I wanted to be the best in my area, mediocrity was not in my vocabulary. I searched for a decent software that I didn't need a degree to use. Something easy to customize as I pride myself in going above and beyond the minimum. I found homegauge in 2006 and have been growing with thus company ever since. I really appreciate that Homegauge is serious about helping me to become as successful as possible. I gave found Homegauge to ve open to listening to actual inspectors on the ground. When a new idea is brought forward HG puts its efforts into making it happen. Over the years I have watch as the HG team has grown and have added more talent to make and application that is not just great, but adds features that other haven't even thought of. The features of HG have allowed me to add 100's of pictures, dozzens of videos, 360 images and more to every report. My cystomers are amazed how much information my reports contain. None of this could be possible without the HG team. Finally about 5 years ago I confided in HG to build my website. Wow, what a great job they did. My web traffic has improved immensely. I really like the fact that I can send a quick email to \[sensitive content hidden\] at HG and he can add or delete anything my heart desires to the site. HG is a big reason for my success. > > **Cons**: HG seems to be moving toward expanding the inspection part of their business into the insurance/warrenty business and other value added areas. I understand businesses need to evolve but I try to stay within my lane of expertise. I don't want to offer warrantys that suggest I'll likely miss something during my inspection. Furthermore I don't want to become a salesman that oversell customers to see how high I can get my bill before I leave the house. > > I think the above review Says it all. ----- ### "User Over 15 Years" — 4.0/5 > **Jeff** | *9 February 2020* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The companion and cloud use. Relatively easy to use the software in general. Support is really great, and I can usually solve most issues fast through HG support. Video use. > > **Cons**: Not being able to edit styles and materials drop down menu view. It needs to be expanded and we need the ability to drag and drop the S\&M within the menu easier. It doesn't expand wide enough to view all the text. No ability to copy and paste from inspection item text to the picture window. Takes too long to either type it of find it the saved picture comments. Template items gets too long over time and it's time consuming to find it within the software, either on companion or the desktop. I found it's easier to write the defect in long paragraphs and save to the template and just go find it that way, lots of scrolling. I hate the current arrow use for pictures. We need and I've asked for over 10 years to a more defined arrow and pointing and arrow options. Seems like a easy enough fix to add another option, but it's been ignored. I can't be changed without major distortion in the pictures or web report view. Stabilizing line drawings. Too shaky and unstable. > > Solved report writing as a whole. The platform is great and generating reports. Home Gauge has also built two websites to date. Each have turned out great. Web services has been great to work with. If there are changes or dislikes, home gauge has always been accommodating with changes and my expectations. Scheduler, which I don't use because it's too time consuming to use and set it all up. There are not enough options to change fees on the fly, too many fixed prices with no range of ability to change them to meet my needs. ----- Page: 1 / 21\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/29014/homegauge?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/29014/homegauge) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
