> **Michael** | *29 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: how easy it is for me to make takeoffs, i'm able to Takeoff in minutes at the job-sites, in front of clients an absolute game changer.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing that i don't love about planformer is that seems to be missing a few features that other softwares offer like build-in estimates.
> 
> I was a bit skeptical at first i couldn't believe that they were offering so much for so little money, I work on concrete so i review plans every day to provide pricing, Planformer has helped me not only to figure out Sqft also price projects  and calculate materials, Very happy overall

It enables direct digital takeoffs from PDF and blueprint files and eliminates manual measurement processes. The platform supports a range of commercial and residential construction projects across multiple trades including general contracting, roofing, concrete and asphalt work, electrical installations, flooring and framing and carpentry.\nThe software features a workflow consisting of import, assembly and export phases. It begins with the import of PDF or blueprint documents where plans are prepared automatically for takeoff operations. It provides a drag and drop assembly functionality to assign material and labor assemblies directly onto digital plans and create detailed and organized estimates. Measurement tools support the quantification of material and labor requirements across full project scopes through automatic calculation of dimensions and quantities based on the imported plans.\nPlanformer operates across office and field environments as a multiplatform solution. It includes export capabilities that facilitate the transfer of takeoff data to Excel spreadsheets and the generation of standardized reports for distribution to project teams and clients. The application functions as a standalone solution with no explicit integrations beyond its built in export features.\nThe interface is designed for ease of use with a minimal learning curve and enables new users to complete initial takeoff operations within minutes of first use. Digital measurement processes reduce errors and eliminate redundant tasks and deliver more consistent quantity calculations and bid preparation. This approach offers a substantial reduction in takeoff time compared to traditional manual methods.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/310fc2ba-96b5-4a33-b9ee-5abf80806699.png","url":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2090084/planformer","@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2090084/planformer#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","bestRating":5,"ratingCount":1,"ratingValue":5.0},"offers":{"price":"49","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Windows on premise, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2090084/planformer#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Construction Estimating Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/27/construction-estimating/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Planformer","position":3,"item":"/software/2090084/planformer","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
