Cubit Estimating Standard:

Cubit Estimating Standard is an estimating and takeoff software like no other. It is the only application that allows you to perform your quantity takeoff directly inside your estimate, all within the same screen. It’s all laid out in one view, meaning the information is where you want it, when you need it. This makes it up to three times faster than other software packages.
By linking quantity takeoff with your estimate, you have greater control and accuracy over your jobs.

Cubit Estimating offers flexible user-friendly functionality that allows you estimate the way you want. By tracing directly over your imported plans, simple or complex quantity takeoffs are performed quickly and accurately plus its ease of use means after an hour of free online training you’ll be up and running. Perform quantity takeoffs from PDF, CAD and image files.

“I have used several different types of building software for estimating over the years and I personally find Cubit to be the best. The on-screen take off is excellent and the system has fantastic functionality for estimating.

We can provide our customers and our staff with marked up drawings indicating the works that are included in our contract and it enables us to easily quantify and monitor any variations. Cubit also has an excellent export to Excel function (including formulas) which we have found invaluable.”
