I realize this topic as been bounced around before, but I would like to get some feedback about Winest estimating program. We put a great product out there but estimating is just hell!

Hi John,
Ive never used WinEst personally. Have seen demo though. They are from my my area of the country. Ive been using a program called Cad Estimator, to do my estimating. It keeps all your take off and estimating in the computer, by using cad files, or digital photos of prints. It is linked with spreadsheet that combines to produce the quickest and most efficient method of estimating that Ive seen. And believe me Ive looked at a lot of them. You can take a look for yourself at http://www.digitalproperty.com. It comes with a digitizer and free tech support. What more could an estimator ask for?
