Customer Stories

Real Results From Real Contractors

These are the actual numbers our customers reported after switching to CMDBLD.

Delgado General Contracting

Phoenix, AZ45-person GC specializing in commercial tenant improvement

Case Study

The Challenge

Managing 12 concurrent commercial projects with spreadsheets and email — missing deadlines, budget overruns averaging 12%, and client communication falling through the cracks.

The Solution

Switched to CMDBLD Pro. Deployed in 2 days, trained the entire team in one afternoon. Rolled out job costing, client portal, and the daily log system simultaneously.

The Results

Admin time per PM

14 hrs/week6 hrs/week-57%

RFI response time

The ROI was obvious in the first 30 days. We caught a $40,000 budget overrun before it happened because we could see job costs in real time.

Owner, Delgado General Contracting

Kowalski Commercial Builders

Chicago, IL28-person commercial general contractor

Case Study

The Challenge

Growing fast but unable to scale — onboarding new PMs took weeks, document chaos was costing them bids, and QuickBooks reconciliation was a monthly nightmare.

The Solution

CMDBLD Enterprise with custom QuickBooks integration. Standardized document templates, automated PM onboarding checklists, and live two-way sync with their accounting system.

We went from feeling like we were duct-taping projects together to actually running a real company. The document management alone is worth the price.

Project Manager, Kowalski Commercial Builders

Hendricks Specialty Contractors

Dallas, TX18-person electrical subcontractor

Case Study

The Challenge

Field crews refused to use Buildertrend — too complicated, no offline mode, and it wasn't built for subs. Daily logs weren't getting done, and slow invoicing was killing cash flow.

The Solution

Switched to CMDBLD Starter. The field crew adopted it instantly — simple mobile UI, offline-first, and one-tap daily log completion.

My guys hated every software we tried. They actually like CMDBLD. That alone is a miracle.

What Other Contractors Are Saying

Hundreds of contractors across the country have made the switch.

We had three project managers quit in one year because of tool overload. After switching to CMDBLD, nobody's complained about software since.

Rachel B.

Operations Director, Summit Ridge Construction

The client portal alone is worth it. My clients stopped calling me on weekends because they can see everything themselves.

Devon P.

Owner, Pinnacle Build Group

We were leaving money on the table every project because we couldn't see real-time costs. CMDBLD fixed that in week one.
