Pro's Picks: iGUIDE

iGUIDE
Before using iGUIDE, we used hand measurements for all our design-build projects. That meant sending two team members for up to four hours for a single-family home. Large projects, or those with curves, angles, or hidden spaces, took even longer. We spent a lot of time getting our team aligned on field measurements, and sometimes there were still errors.
After iGUIDE, we reduced our measurement time by 50%. Now, we send one person to capture images, floor plans, and a 3D model of the project in half the time. Other tools gave us either images or a model, but iGUIDE gives us both.
We also started using iGUIDE during the rough-in stage of a project to provide a clear view of pipes, wires, and other components hidden inside walls, making it easy to locate them when needed. Having accurate field condition drawings has been a massive benefit to our contractors.
Thanks to iGUIDE’s visuals and models, our clients better understand potential changes to their space during design discussions, which has improved communication, led to fewer mistakes, and increased customer satisfaction overall.
We’re now using iGUIDE for all our projects, from small bathroom renovations to new construction. We’ve increased our operating efficiency and improved customer satisfaction.The value speaks for itself.
