As a small building company, I rely on the integrity of supporting companies to allow my business to improve our services and grow our business. As a start-up company I tried different customer service/project management styled programmes that would suit my business needs and never found the right fit. It wasn't until I found Rave Build that I was able to trust the system to support my business as it needed to be. With the ongoing 1-on-1 support and training for my staff, the easy to use system allows me to focus on the tasks I need to be focused on as the business owner and let Rave do the rest for me.

I only regret not implementing rave sooner. For the past half-year, we've been utilising Rave, and the difference it has made in streamlining project management, quoting, and back costing has been truly remarkable. The user-friendly nature of the software, coupled with the excellent training provided, has made the transition a breeze. Additionally, the support from the Rave team has been exceptional, always ready to assist whenever we encounter any difficulties. Looking back, I only regret not implementing this solution sooner.

It's incredibly beneficial,
I highly recommend using rave build!

Our construction firm thoroughly researched software companies before choosing to work with Rave Build. The simplicity of their system and their New Zealand based offices made the choice to use Rave an easy one.

Rave is great, we use it across our entire business.
It saves us time - having all of the required project information on hand cuts down on unnecessary communication between staff and our other sub contractors. The rave support team are also pretty quick to respond to any queries we might have.
