Inconvénients

a ce niveau j'apprecie Dashpivot parceque ce logiciel repond a mes besoins

Avantages

I use Dashpivot as an asbestos register. The software has all the tools I need to custom-design my register and supporting records. Other products on the market don't offer this flexibility, and still cost over twice as much as this product does. It even lets users enter data and check the asbestos register from their phones in the field, and I can generate reports for staff and contractors that contains the essential information they need to know to keep themselves and others safe.

Inconvénients

I often find myself re-customising my templates, as I learn from trial, error and experience. It would be really handy if my existing record entries could be re-populated with the current template's designs, so I could go back and fill in the blanks. What I have to do now is manually re-type the old data into the new template, which is okay now, but won't be feasible in the long-term.

Avantages

Easy to set up.
Simple to submit electronic templates.
Efficient managerial sign off.
All positive feedback from site workers.

Inconvénients

The ability for the approver in Dashpivot to make adjustments to a template without sending the timesheet back to the operative in the workflow column would be useful for us. The 'make changes' button is misleading as this removes the operatives signature.

Avantages

The ability to Taylor bespoke documentation to our organisation and for the onsite staff to be able to access that documentation in real time

Inconvénients

Nothing really is or was an issue for the dash pivot team. Slow to load in certain situations would be my only concern

Avantages

-Easy to make new templates to suit our requirements, and easy to alter our existing templates to make them better.
-User friendly, we have all our main guys on it, and they have all found it super easy to use and to figure out without any help, even a few of the older guys have picked up how to use the templates quickly.
-Dashpivot has been great for us to be able to keep an eye on everyone's paperwork, we can see if any information is missing straight away and it is easy for our guys to get on the app to fix it straight away. During claims we rely on the paper work to be spot on so its good that we can track it throughout the month to make sure everything is up to scratch, compared to when we used to be using paper we only saw the daily diaries at the end of the month and by then if information was missing it was a bit hard for us to fix it.
-The new conditional formatting in the templates is awesome, it is great that we can make extra questions appear if certain criteria is met, it makes the forms look so much tidier. It is great for our incident/accident forms.

Inconvénients

Not a dislike, but more a couple of things that need to be added:
-Certain forms that we have need to be accessed by all our workers (such as incident forms), currently only our lead guys have access, it would be good if we could assign users to certain forms that are not for everyday use.
-We use dashpivot to upload all the project photos, currently to send them to clients we have to download all photos to send to the client, it would be good if we could send them a link that allows them access to the photos for a certain project.

Avantages

This software is easy to use. Easy to set up also. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] who has been training myself and the director of the company has been so patient with all the questions and has made the software that much easier to understand (Not that it was hard to begin with)

Inconvénients

We have no complaints yet. Easy to use with great support if we have any questions.

Avantages

Found the templates where of ease to navigate and edit to get the result, layout of information recorded, and the finished professional presentation to the client. Download, or shared as file with a site designated team member I report to at site level.

Inconvénients

Nothing but praise for the customer service team in responding in great time. And their ability and willingness to help with design, duplication of my current reports on this site.

Look forward to the day that a repetitive text, or auto populate when repeating certain text or content tab, could made available, or added. As allot of my reports refer to the same comments within the AS standards. I am fining I have to retype each time, or cut and paste. If this can be added when I do my reports it would save me a fair amount of time.

Avantages

The best feature of the Dashpivot software is how user friendly it is. You don't need to spend time or money on IT consultants or tech support to establish and later modify/set up the software to meet your needs. Creating your own forms/templates is very simple meaning that it is relatively easy to transfer a paper system across to a digital format/database. Because it is so easy to generate new forms it also means that it is easy to continue to grow your systems as you find new ways to utilise the dashpivot functions or new functions become available.

Inconvénients

Dashpivot is still relatively early in its development which means that there is still a lot of potential in the software that is yet to be realised. However, the team team at dashpivot is always open to hearing your ideas on possible functionality improvements and trying to implement those where possible.

Avantages

Its adaptability and the ease with which we were able to roll it across our business. The form builder is excellent and the analytics provide for real time and informed management review.

Inconvénients

We are looking to expand the applications of Dashpivot into more areas of our business but it is not quite there just yet. We are working with Sitemate however to address this.

Avantages

The app is so easy to use and versatile.
I have found it incredibly easy to create and edit new documents.
My Team have transitioned to the system with ease.
The Analytics function works great in graphing all of my Data to make it easier to identify trends, Great for Injury data collection.
The Tutorials are very straight forward and helpful.
I have been recommending Dashpivot to everyone.

Inconvénients

I have not yet come across any cons but have only been using the App for 2 months

Avantages

Product is easy to use and we are able to edit without involving the developers and being charged for it

Inconvénients

We are still new at using it so I don't have an opinion about it yet. The time sheets and purchase order are the only things we dont have working yet

Avantages

It is relatively simple to stablish a quality management system for a certain number of worklots and group them, simple to stablish ITPs and ITCs in the system, is very visual, you can easily access it on the phone. For a small project it could be ok, over 2m dollar project, I would consider a different solution. If you don't have an external client, could also be ok.

Inconvénients

-UX is poor you cannot read and adjust the full name of worklots on the left side of the screen.
-Register view is poor, you cannot filter ITPs and ITCs, etc...
-It has no "eagle eye" view of th system, you cannot know in a glance the status of worklots, itps, etc... we had to do massive exports of csvs and run power bi dashboards which merited an IT project by itself. Dashpivot was fully aware of the issue and their assistance was minimal to null, and we were their bigger project at that time.
- The signatures are not very secure, anyone can modify ITCs, ITPs, tampering with the system, it is hard to stablish more nuanced roles in the system.
- The PDF exports are not adequate, if a template is bigger than a pdf sheet, it gets cut and becomes unreadable. Not nice...And you cannot adjust.
-Search function is non existent, good luck finding something if you don't know where it is.
-You cannot reorder templates once they are set.
-Hard, again, to follow up anything on register review, if for example, you have multiple signatures in one itc, you have to enter it to see what is going on there.
-The CSVs exports are rubbish, the template gests disordered and becomes unreadable, makes very hard to do any data anaylisis of it. Again, we have made it known to them, receiving in 3 years, zero solutions.
-Pasting things out of tables and making Dashpivot work with excel, other solutions is not intuitive, there are two type of tables, one you can do it, but it becomes hard to export, and the other vice versa, this is not transparent.
-Many ITCs ITPs become broken and could not be downloaded due to attachments not being to Dashpivot liking...
-Their solution, to export data, flowsite, is green, has many of the same issues of lack of visibility, requires big IT set up, etc...
-Unreliable, not thought for many people working on same template, if more than one person works on the same template, one erases the other. We lost valuable commissioning information due to this. photos also did not upload some time, the system is dependant on one person working alone at a template (itc for example) and having good internet, which is an ideal situation that cannot happen all the time.
-Once you set up a template, you cannot change it without erasing all signatures associated with it, this which is done for not tampering the template ignores the fact, that the system allos you to add comment, remarks, etc on signed things that should be closed...It is either flexible or rigid, this is not either, on a bad way.

Avantages

Tracking construction progress with pictures and the management of progress pictures over the lifecycle of a project is done exceptionally well. The back up support is excellent. The platform it self is very easy to use and quick when being used onsite. Forms are very easy to compile.

Inconvénients

Some more Functionality in regards analytics would be useful.

Avantages

Dashpivot allows any type of check list or procedure to be digitalised, and also allows real time viewing. It has moved us away from paper check lists, to a check list that is exportable in CSV and can be adapted for multiple further uses.

Inconvénients

There are no real Cons, as the Dashpivot team are very receptive to any suggestions that we have to make the product better.

Avantages

It is easy to use and very helpful for tracking site activities and storing photos. The iPhone app makes it a perfect tool for an Engineer working on site to upload photos of day-to-day tasks.

Inconvénients

When viewing a photo, it would be good to add a swiping functionality in order to more easily move between photos - especially when in full screen mode. Ability to rotate 90 degrees when in full screen mode would also be a good addition.

For the daily diaries i find myself generally typing everything into the comments box as opposed to manually selecting the drop down lists for things like labour, deliveries and plant/equipment on site as it is much quicker and easier to modify. Although if there was a timesheet functionality that was directly linked to the input fields in the daily diaries then we would be encouraged to manually enter it. I.e. The name of each labourer and the hours they do each day could be entered by the foreman into the daily diary. At the end of the month you could generate a timesheet template, select the labourers name, and it would display every day that labourer worked and the hours he did.

Avantages

Easy to use and administer.
Found it to be the best fit for our business needs.
Easy to use in the field
Support has been excellent
Constantly being developed

Inconvénients

No GPS location feature on forms
Unable to select specific fields to be printed in forms

Avantages

Most useful features are daily reporting and recording of site activities, followed closely by safety monitoring, site inductions and safe working method statements especially for in house trade labour.
Customer service is very good so you can be confident that any problems will be short lived.

Inconvénients

I would like to see more work done on the application when used on a smart phone. At present it seems to favour computer screens and i pads, where I have not had any issues at all, but to be 100% effective on a building site it needs to be phone friendly. System sometimes seems unstable and freezes requiring a restart of the phone.

Avantages

Dash pivot is quite easy to use. Even better when it's set up. It saves a lot of time & helps with invoicing as well, the analytics feature is great for quickly confirming hours on every trade. I also love the fact I can be out in the field & log photos in real time, it saves arguments with both clients & subcontractors. The safety of knowing that all my data is backed up is great also.

Inconvénients

Not much, if anything I'd say the date should auto populate on the PC template.

Avantages

It is very user friendly and personnel from all levels of the organisation are able to see what has been uploaded to the cloud and also do their own inputs.

Initially our project started to use it for progress pictures of the project in different areas, however due to its properties we have expanded our use to digital forms minimizing paperwork and streamline processes.

Form or pictures are able to be reviewed immediately by multiple users in the organisation.

One more good feature is that the software is available on PC web site base or through apps in mobile devices so pictures and forms can be uploaded or edited in any device.

Inconvénients

No Cons, always improving so any suggestion has been always taken in consideration.

Avantages

- User friendly web and mobile interface
- The photo and video option is excellent. Media is uploaded and updated almost instantaneously. Can add photo tags and descriptions which make searching much easier.
- GPS option on photos is great when working on a large road project.
- Drag and drop option on templates makes it simply to create forms and workflows.
- The analytics are extremely valuable to our business

Inconvénients

- The formatting on some forms could be improved.
- The software is developing at a rate of knots and even though the updates are outstanding, you need to spend the time learning what the changes are.

Avantages

The implementation of Dashpivot has shown immediate benefit and return of investment. Key features include:
- The ability for all of the project team to capture and share information for any form in an instant from any device;
- The sharing and capture of the site activities via the photos page and the site diary;
- The quick setup of the program and each user;
- The ease of use of the software with each user quickly learning and adding in content;
- Value for money
- The communication not only within the project team but also to the construction management and support teams.

Inconvénients

We prefer the old name - Construction Cloud. We also look forward to the integration with our other software systems over time.

Avantages

Taking photos through the mobile app and having the photos uploaded immediately.
Ease of being able to create forms and completing them through the mobile app on site.
Easy to keep and find documents and reports.
