Autodesk Construction Cloud vs. Followup CRM

I think if you're a solo practitioner without a team, it might not be worth having Autodesk Construction Cloud. But if you do have a team, Autodesk Construction Cloud is a must. Having multiple users working simultaneously on the same project is something I truly appreciate. It greatly improves the team's workflow. Also, if you frequently share documentation, models, etc., with consultants, it's very useful.

One of the best things about FollowUp Power is that we can mark things for follow-up several months down the line, which we frequently have a need for since many of our clients are seasonal. For example, we'll get started working with them while they're here in Florida for the winter, then they'll head back north in the spring and not want to hear from us again until they return in the fall. With FollowUp Power, we can then mark them for follow up in the future rather than to have to somehow remember to contact them in the future.

• We love the dashboard feature. This is where we spend the majority of our time. The dashboard helps us avoid missing bid dates and deadlines.
• The system is very intuitive and a new user will be up to speed within one hour after they start using the system. There is only one place to enter all data. This allows for ease of use and minimizes data entry mistakes.
• Every task is date stamped to insure proper work flow and holds the team accountable to each other.

• The only thing I can think of to improve is making the user interface a bit more intuitive

• It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous phone #s with a note beside each one ("his cell#", "her work#", "do not call before 9a.m.", etc.).
• It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous e-mail addresses ("hers", "his", "her email address at work", etc.).
• It would be nice to have a separate general information box where we could put comments in that would show every time we bring up the account (such as "her nickname is Bobbi", "their dogs name is Fido, "their son is currently stationed in France", "husband is going through chemotherapy", etc.), which would help us to remember personal details that are important to our clients.

It's a very powerful collaboration tool. It enables efficient teamwork by allowing real-time collaboration among multiple users, regardless of location. It centralizes all project documentation, making it easy to manage and share files, models, and updates. It is also very useful for everyone to easily identify the latest issued documents. This greatly enhances communication within the team and with external consultants.

My company had already implemented FollowUp Power CRM for Construction before I arrived. I have used other CRM programs in the past, and FollowUp Power is much more user friendly, and I have already seen a direct increase in my lead to customer conversion ratio as well as increased sales

• Much more efficient teamwork
• Easier and better communication within the team and with consultants

• The dashboard is part of my daily routine it tells me exactly what I need to follow up on weather it is calling the customer or checking on the customer.
• Payments or what the current status of the job is.
