The short, honest verdict
Buildertrend is built for home builders and remodelers: lead management, proposals, bids to subcontractors, client selections, schedules, daily logs, change orders and a client portal. Bidmio has the project core (quotes, Gantt, daily log, change orders, client portal, subcontractor collaboration) and also includes service visits, stock, assets and accounting. For full access for every paid user, with accounting included (1,000 posting lines per year are included; then EUR 0.07 per line or a bigger package) and no lock-in, Bidmio may be the better fit. Compare both with your own requirements during a trial.
Bidmio
Bidmio suits trade contractors and smaller builders that mix projects with service work, want stock and the books in the same system, and want a public price per user.
Buildertrend
Buildertrend is the better choice for a home builder or remodeler that runs bids to many subcontractors, client selections with allowances and a polished client experience, and works with QuickBooks or Xero.
