Why builders are switching from Procore to Built Simple
Procore is a solid platform, but it wasn’t built with Australian builders in mind. Most of our switchers come over because of one of these reasons.
What slows Procore down for AU builders
- Built for commercial construction firms with $100M+ revenue
- Per-user pricing scales fast — 5 users = $1,875/mo USD
- Massive feature set most residential builders never use (RFIs, submittals, daily logs at enterprise scale)
- Implementation usually requires Procore consultants
- 6+ month learning curve before teams are productive
What Built Simple does instead
- Designed for residential and small commercial builders
- Flat pricing — unlimited users on Pro plan
- Workflows match how AU builders actually work
- Setup in 30 min, productive in a day
- Free 14-day trial, no consulting fees
- 47 calculators that builders actually use
