With money being so tight starting an electrical business, I reviewed many bid software programs. Yours is the very best bid software I have ever seen.

I can honestly say that your program should be a "must buy” for new contractors. It even helped me "think through” my business and how I want to set up my shop. I know this was not your intention, but it was the extra benefit I received.

The other thing that really impressed me was your customer service. Your patience and willingness to spend hours helping me work through my first couple of bids was amazing and has been invaluable. Thank you so very much.

In addition, you are a man of your word. What you say you will do, you do. How rare is that in business now a days. It has been a pleasure working with you and learning from you.

The Estimating Software Turbobid is a user friendly program. Very little work on my end. Everything is setup, all you have to do is compute the information. Thousands of assemblies and single items are available and everything can be edited or changed for up-to-date material cost.

I would recommend TurboBid to any Electrical Contractor.
