Building Materials

I actually recommend them to everyone because of the support they provide, and how professional it looks. I think we have gotten jobs before just because of the documents being able to generate the shop drawings, the spec sheets, and the quotes.

There's no other software out there in the fence industry that can do what they can do, as fast as they can do it.

We’ve been working with Software Design Associates for over 20 yrs now and they clearly have the best fence estimating software out there. A lot of our company’s success can be attributed to our ability to properly estimate jobs. Jen and the rest of their tech support staff are reliable and friendly. If you’re in the fence business and don’t take the time to set up and use this software you’re missing out.

I definitely would recommend them to anyone because it's so easy to be able to build a line of fence to run an estimate for the cost.

Our company has been working with Software Design Associates for more than 2 decades. Our company works in Residential, Light Industrial & Commercial fencing markets. Over the years we have looked at other fence estimating programs and found that Computer Fencing System software by SDA is a program that speaks in terms that we in the fencing industry understand. The software generates customizable specifications and diagrams that support and enhance our communication with our customers, sales & installation staff. The SDA support staff has always been easy to work with & ready to assist whenever I need them.

I can’t say enough about Software Design. We have been using their CFS program for over 20 years, each year we do a little more with the program and when we venture these new areas we are always on the phone asking for help. Their customer service is outstanding and have the patience of a saint, dealing with non-computer people and helping them through their struggles. They are always just a phone call or an email away. If you're in the fencing industry and want to be a true professional you need to have their program.

We have been using CFS since the mid-nineties, and added a second version for our wholesale company in 2001. Two versions is a lot of work, but it is well worth the investment. Master File, Scratch Builder, Parts Catalog, Misc. Estimator and Cash Register are used daily on any of our eleven stations. Once set up, this system is very detailed, reliable and saves time and money. SDA are fence people and understand the countless parts and terminology that go into estimating, fabricating and selling a wide variety of fence products. Great customer service. We have known Ray since the days when he actually came out to install the program for us. All of his team are knowledgeable and timely with responses when we have issues. CFS is one of the most important tools in our business.

We have been using software design since 1985 (I think) I know our original customer number was 76. I have always recommended your software to anyone in the industry as it has so many tools that help you sell and price jobs. Is there any other software out there with the tools you have? I don’t think so!!

We’ve used CFS going on 11 years and have always been extremely satisfied with the help and support we get from their staff. They are always patient and willing to help us navigate and more importantly teach us about using the software to help improve our business processes and productivity. Great people and great company!

They're the best in the market. The phone support is superb. I like the fact that they answer the phone and they understand what we need.
