I purchased this software package nearly 3 years ago, to cut down my estimating time and make my company portrait the more professional image. Although the software is not absolutely perfect. What is! It provides every builder of all trades a logical easy to follow and adapt estimating system cutting estimating from a guess to an accurate, trade guided estimate, based on professional time allowances and material usage. Then to top it off, it provides you with a completely professionally prepared and easily changed estimate, no longer do you have to wait for the wife or secretary to type it, it does it for you. Think of the cost savings there alone, no more bribing the wife.In my opinion if you want a family life with a successful business, and you don’t buy HBXL then all you will achieve is failure on both. For once you can talk to computer people about the problems you have and not get an answer in gobbldygook, just plain straight forward builder language.
