Project management software? [RE-wrenches]

[Steve Johnson]

Anybody using QuickBooks Premier Contractor 2007?  I'm going to, as it 
is sitting here on my desk.  I have been studiously advoiding it.  I got 
the Contractor 2007 for the Job Cost reports.  You assign all expenses 
to the job, materials, labor , direct job expense, overhead and track 
your estimate re profitablilty etc.

Be careful on the some of the big packages.  I used Viewpoint at another 
electrical contractors.  It works if you can devote your life to it.

On esimating I highly recommend EBM 3000 by Vision Infosoft.  Links to 
Epic for material pricing updates.  I have customized mine with a folder 
for Solar - panels, racks, inverters, batteries etc.  They used to have 
a trial download.  As with any estimating program locating everything is 
the learning curve - and building your own custom assemblies.
