Newforma Project Center
By Newforma
Users praise Newforma Project Center for its ability to centralize project data from various sources like emails, files, and project documents, which significantly reduces storage bloat and cuts down helpdesk calls. The centralized data hub improves team collaboration and project communication, making information easy to find and manage.
The software excels in document and project management, providing useful features such as RFIs, submittals, contract administration, and audit trails which help reduce risks and keep projects on track. The search function is highlighted as a strong point, making retrieval of emails and files efficient.
Integration with widely used tools like Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft 365, Autodesk, and others adds to the convenience, letting users continue working with preferred platforms without disruption.
The software reportedly improves project efficiency and productivity, automating routine workflows and enabling real-time updates and visibility among team members. This helps project teams to stay coordinated and informed.
Some users find the software slow or heavy to run, especially when accessing via VPN or handling large files, which can cause occasional performance issues.
The markup and mobile app features receive mixed reviews, with some users wishing for more intuitive markup tools and better mobile app functionality.
A few users express concern over the complexity of some workflows or the number of steps required to complete certain tasks, which can limit user efficiency especially for smaller teams or new users.
Certain features are only available in the cloud (via Office 365), which may cause some dissatisfaction among users relying on on-premises infrastructure.
