I began using the printed cost manual data in the 1980’s that a few years later SDSI used to deploy their estimating software; So I went onboard as a charter user and have been using their software ever since.
I discovered their data was always accurate, even when I wasn’t sure about certain tasks required for a particular project.
I’ve been through all the upgrades and versions with their knowledgeable technical support team always available to assist when needed.
Any contractor considering upgrading their business’ estimating process should look no further than Rapid estimating software.

Rapid Estimator, its title speaks for itself. "Rapid". Once the setup has been completed, what I really appreciated most was the patient support and customization. They 'bend over backwards' to assimilate the program to your business fast. Not much to do but know your craft and used the search features, it’s all in there! I use it to migrate the info into my CRM "shell" that runs my business. Like gas to a tank... but at a much lower price! (2022)
“As a contractor I’ve always been looking for tools to help me grow the scale of my business. I’ve always looked for that new shiny piece of equipment or tool. But I’ve realized not having the correct estimating process – new tools cannot have good results. Rapid Estimator has provided that process. I’ve been able to complete estimates that become accurate budgets, maintaining profit until the last job cost is paid. I am not what you call a computer geek. My background is working hands on remodel projects. The staff at Rapid Estimator has been outstanding with tech support and updating the software. Thank you, Rapid Estimator.”
