Best for tracking projects, both big and small. Knowing what was budgeted and the actual expenses for a project is extremely useful. Also, it's helpful that you can review the amounts at all stages of the project to allow for corrections if the budget is being exceeded. It is extremely useful as a central depository for information.

Extremely like to renew our use of Fieldlens by RedTeam. Program is very intuitive and easy to use. It helps keep focus on the project. Anyone can look and see the actual vs budgeted costs to determine if project is on track. Easy to train others on RedTeam with minimal oversight.

Usability
I use this all the time for my field measurements. But sometimes when I am working offline and upload it to cloud after coming to office, the tags get messed up. Some lines I drew at plan gets missing

Extremely easy to use. Very user-friendly. Help is always available, but the program is very intuitive. Does not require extensive training to get someone up and running. We have a lot of people in the field that use Red Team. It is easy to explain over the phone how to use the system or to help them navigate the program if they have an issue

They have always been very responsive to any changes that we have asked for. We have never had a technical issue.

Alternatives Considered
Fieldwire for sure has better mobile usage, however, Smartsheet has better organization and charts. Ideally using both software together would help us achieve our goals and what we needed but the cost to run both software will cost you more than what other larger project management software competitors would charge for the same service.

Procore is a different beast and solves different company issues. We use Procore to manage the external part of our construction business. Field superintendents upload progress notes and pictures into Procore. However, RedTeam is our main project resource as it can also handle our budgeting concerns. Both are easier to use but RedTeam definitely has the advantage.
