Frequently Asked Questions

Is BuildVision really as capable as Procore?

For 90% of contractors, yes. BuildVision handles all core construction management needs. Only the largest enterprises with complex integration requirements might need Procore's extensive ecosystem.

Why is Procore so much more expensive?

Procore's pricing model is based on your Annual Construction Volume (ACV), meaning you pay more as you grow. They also charge for implementation, training, and many features that BuildVision includes standard.

How difficult is it to switch from Procore?

Much easier than you'd think. Our migration team handles the data export/import, and most teams are fully operational within 48 hours. We've migrated hundreds of companies from Procore.

What if we need Procore's advanced integrations?

BuildVision offers a robust API and integrates with all major construction tools. For the rare cases where a specific Procore integration is needed, our team can usually build a custom solution at no extra cost.
