Now that your company has grown, perhaps it is time for you to evaluate a more robust construction software specifically produced for contractors. As you grow the complexities of managing a construction company become more difficult. You will note more and more things begin falling through the cracks.

The tell tale sign that you may need a more powerful construction specific software is when your employees seem to spend more time on workarounds than actually doing the work. These workarounds take a tremendous amount of time. Data has to be handled 2 times or more.

When you start seeing more and more Excel worksheets you know the time for a change is fast approaching. The chance for error is multiplied when data has to be entered and retrieved several times from Excel. With a construction specific package like ComputerEase, data is entered one time and all systems are updated. For example, when a complicated construction payroll is run all job cost information is updated automatically.

ComputerEase has spent the past 27 years developing software for the construction industry. In that time the list of contractors using ComputerEase has grownto over 6,000 customers nationwide. Building software for contractors is all we do.

Our bread and butter customer ranges from $1 million in sales to $100 million in sales. We have installed companies with 10 employees and with over 500 employees.

We are able to span this breadth of contractors because our system is the easiest to use on the market. Our name, ComputerEase is the symbol for ease of use in construction software. Whether you have just one bookkeeper or a staff of accountants, ComputerEase has the right tools to get the job done.

What we would do is, take the piece of equipment, estimate the useful life of the equipment and then take some, another market, like, if I had to go out and I had to rent. Let's say I had to rent that Bobcat. How much would I pay to go rent it? Now, that's not truly gonna be our cost nor our replacement cost but you can take a percentage of that, maybe 60 to 70% of what it would cost to rent and figure out how much life you think that has and how many productive hours you're gonna get out of it and it allows you to track it. So if I'm going and I'm billing, you know, $1,200 for a week of renting that piece of equipment, I can calculate how much, if that job is, is covering that cost and that job gets allocated that cost, I can there, therefore measure and manage at what point in time did I make my return on my investment and now I have profit that I now can put in a money market or an escrow fund to replace that piece of equipment so that I don't have to worry necessarily about financing it or leasing it because, basically, I'm building it into my profits because I'm accounting for that in that job profitability.

What I like about ComputerEase is that it’s very user friendly. It’s very easy to use, and it’s very easy to learn. Just starting the equipment module, I have found that, uhm, as I add the equipment in or delete old equipment, uhm, it’s a very smooth transition.
