The short version

Which platform fits how you run your business?

Fair is fair

Where Builder Prime has the edge

We'd rather you pick the right tool than the wrong one. Here's where Builder Prime is genuinely strong.

Production and job costing for bigger operations

Its production calendar, project triggers, milestones and GPS time cards are mature and used by multi-location coatings companies.

Exterior measuring and a broad integration list

Hover and EagleView for exteriors, plus integrations such as QuickBooks, CompanyCam, Angi, GreenSky and Wisetack.

Multi-trade and a longer trial

If you sell roofing, siding or remodeling alongside coatings, it covers all of them. Its trial is 14 days with no card, to our 7.
