For roofing it is really easy to adjust conditions to meet your project needs. > > **Puntos en contra**: In some cases it crash when working abroad. Due to language or regional configuration it crashes when working abroad. > > Overall good experience, it is really easy to adjust conditions at least in my case for roofing. Easy to review and adjust projects, the PDF viewer and page creationg can have some minor improvements. ----- ### "GREAT PRODUCT" — 4.0/5 > **Scott** | *5 de noviembre de 2025* | Construcción | Valoración de la recomendación: 8.0/10 > > **Puntos a favor**: Customer support, accuracy, reports, being able to customize your own databases, groups \& conditions. Set up is pretty easy for our techs. The admin portal is also an excellent resource. They stay on top of bugs and issues. A great tool for bidding \& estimates. Security seems pretty tight too. As far as value for the money, it tends to lean towards the pricier side of estimating programs. I do feel it does give us an edge, though. > > **Puntos en contra**: I feel it can be a little too deep sometimes. A cut \& paste for the conditions from the take off screen tree would be extremely convenient. It also does not always start on the most recent condition that you edited. It will often begin the takeoff from the last condition that you used rather than the last condition that you edited. > > I really like working on the Edge. I feel it's accuracy and customization features for our scopes puts us a step higher than our competition. I would highly recommend this product for your estimating needs. ----- ### "There are better programs out there" — 3.0/5 > **Derek** | *11 de julio de 2019* | Construcción | Valoración de la recomendación: 3.0/10 > > **Puntos a favor**: Takeoffs are fairly simple once you get past the semi-cumbersome training. I like the ease of adjusting labor rates, and that once conditions are built they remain. > > **Puntos en contra**: Editing the database is an awful task, and even when you think you have a handle on it....you don't. Formulas are damn near impossible to read unless you have a print out of what each piece of a formula means. In fairness, it is built into the program, but making one from scratch on your own is not worth the time it would take to learn it all. Setting up reports to reflect exactly what you want is extremely difficult. If you did it every single day and learned all of the ins and outs of how to set reports up that's one thing, but this is one of the most unfriendly aspects of the Edge. There are conditions that are never used and are unable to be deleted (hard to count how many times I've selected the wrong conditions), not everything saves in the database (FRP setup), and let's not forget that the amount of updates that there have been; more than Apple, and that's saying something\! I would be more apt to continue using a program like this in the future with some major overhauls on some areas, specifically ACT takeoffs; I can't click and drag for a square footage without it crashing the system. I have brought this to the attention of the developers/programmers and it is still not fixed. Also, is there a 3D rendering coming? > > Not much. I can print out reports for the field, but they just throw them to the side. ----- ### "Valuable Investment" — 5.0/5 > **Maris** | *8 de enero de 2026* | Construcción | Valoración de la recomendación: 10.0/10 > > **Puntos a favor**: I appreciate the degree of detail that a roof project can be customized to. There is a deep library of options and behind-the-scenes tools to master estimates and generate proposals. > > **Puntos en contra**: Tools/functions are complex and challenging to navigate as a new user. All require external instructions and training, which can slow you down initially. > > Edge is unmatched in terms of capability and detail for roof estimation. Once time is invested in learning how to navigate the various tools, it can be incredibly productive. ----- ### "The best estimating and project management tool for me." — 5.0/5 > **Richard** | *9 de diciembre de 2025* | Construcción | Valoración de la recomendación: 10.0/10 > > **Puntos a favor**: It's thorough, adaptable, and can give me what I need. I've used the EDGE ever since \[sensitive content hidden\] started it. The support team is always there and always helpfull. \[sensitive content hidden\] has always been very supportive throughout the years. > > **Puntos en contra**: The snap to box is too small and hard to see on some plans. It would be nice if this was adjustable. > > I have been using The EDGE since \[sensitive content hidden\] first started it, back in the 70's. I used it at my two companies, later introduced to two other companies where I worked after I sold my company. I've since retired and came back and have now introduced it to the two new companies that I work with. \[sensitive content hidden\] has always been there for me and very helpful. The support team has always been available and very helpful. The EDGE has provided me with as accurate an estimate that one could produce, and also provides the means to purchase and manage a project with materials and labor, as long as the user takes the time to dial in his database and insert the correct information. Once that's done, it's a mandatory tool where I work. ----- Página: 1 de 14\ Siguiente: [Página siguiente](https://www.capterra.mx/software/8668/the-edge?page=2) ## Enlaces - [Ver en Capterra](https://www.capterra.mx/software/8668/the-edge) ## Esta página se encuentra disponible en los siguientes idiomas | Local | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Datos estructurados
