Project Manager Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Not very user friendly" July 24, 2024 3.0 Not very user friendly and complicated to use. Pros The option the client has to approve and disapprove individual items on their end. It is user friendly for client facing and billing. Not so much for internal company use. It auto saves. Cons It is not simple and user friendly to use, especially in comparison to Studio Designer, which I loved. The process and steps of creating proposal, purchase order and invoice are different and the linking is much more complicated. updated and changes take place without any notification to the company. time billing will not total up the hours and cannot filter per date, etc. Switched from [Ivy](https://www.capterra.com/p/258086/Ivy/)[Studio Designer](https://www.capterra.com/p/217839/Studio-Designer/) Switched from Ivy out of it being updated to Houzz Pro. No choice. Switched from Studio Designer because I started the new job where ivy/houzz pro were being used. No choice. Review Source Response from Houzz August 5, 2024 Hi Marina, I'd love to hear your detailed feedback as we are always updating our experience and may already have addressed.

Pros It is an excellent, multi-purpose site for many businesses. Cons It does not have a specific category for my business, which is organizing. Alternatives considered [RealOffice360](https://www.capterra.com/p/176934/RealOffice360/) Reason for choosing Houzz Pro I use it in addition to the Yelp, Google, findmyorganizer and Thumbtack.

Sometimes can get confusing when building an invoice Review Source VR Verified Reviewer ceo Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "houzz designers" November 22, 2024 5.0 easy to navigate, great features and links Pros cool website, features, customer service Cons customer review moderation, not vetted customers, designers run houzz but the platform does not support designers completely Review Source RM Ryan M.

Office Manager Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A Great Tool That Helps Me Stay Organized and Save Time" May 21, 2025 5.0 Overall, my experience with Houzz Pro was positive. It saved me time, kept our business organized, and impressed clients. Pros What I liked most about Houzz Pro was how it helped streamline my project management and client communication all in one platform. Cons The thing I liked least was that some features felt a bit clunky or limited in customization, especially for invoicing. Review Source MB Martin B. Owner and Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Houzz Pro review" September 19, 2024 5.0 My overall experience with Houzz Pro has been a good one. It went downhill the last year with qualified leads, but with my doing a better job of managing my website and their reorganization I am confident the lead quality will be better. Pros I have been subscribing to Houzz for many years and what I like about Houzz Pro is that it has everything any builder, remodeler, subcontractor, architect or designer needs to help your business succeed. Cons What I didn't like is that the support contact wasn't allowed enough time to deal with my problems, but with the new reorganization I think that is changing. Review Source AP Alex P. President Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "I recommend Houzz Pro to other design professionals" December 16, 2024 5.0 It has been great to incorporate this platform into our business and see that the consumers using it to find professionals like us are a solid base of clients to work with. Pros It is a convenient way to manage client projects and get in front of new leads Cons As with any new software, it takes time to learn all that Houzz Pro has to offer Review Source PN Paul N. Owner Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Fantastic Company to work with" December 7, 2024 5.0 Pros Professionalism is unmatched, very likely to refer them to other Contractors Cons It can be very difficult uploading photos of past and current projects Review Source ND Nicholas D. Owner Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Appears Professional to Clients" October 5, 2024 5.0 Overall happy. Clients are pleased with ease of use. Pros Appears very professional. Clients are easily able to track project with all of it's necessary details. Cons Was harder to get used to then simpler construction software. Switched from [BuildBook](https://www.capterra.com/p/190939/BuildBook/) Cheaper and more capable. Build books did not offer takeoffs, 3d floorplans, etc. Review Source SA Salvador A. Senior Landscape Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Job Phone doesn't ring anymore..." September 24, 2024 1.0 The Job Phone doesn't ring anymore. Pros We used to get jobs through HOUZZ!!! Still a great place to direct potential clients to see our past work, unfortunately, they will see other designers work, which might be fine... Cons I scrolled down to the last Lead, February 20th... Since then we've Won ONE Job. Review Source CW Cole W. Owner Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Overall good program " October 8, 2024 4.0 Overall I do like the system. It just takes some getting used to. Pros The estimates with AI. So nice to give a customer a rough estimate right on site. Cons Well I can’t get the lidar to work on my phone for the 3d scanner. Just frustrating. Customer service is pretty good though and I’m working through the issue. wish this system could do edits on my phone/ipad. Also make this lidar work for decks or other outside projects. Review Source Response from Houzz October 22, 2024 Hi Cole - I'd be happy to help troubleshoot what's happening with your phone scan issue if you're not getting resolution. Thanks for the feedback on editing on your ipad, good input. - Chloe MG Michael G. President Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Houz Pro review" November 18, 2024 5.0 My overall experience has been great with help along the way. Pros The online presence and the customer service. Cons The competition is strong, a lot of professionals trying to achieve the same goal. Review Source GK Gordon K. Ceo Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Unhappy customer " September 20, 2024 1.0 Bait and Switch. Watch your renewal dates. Pros Used schedule program with some success. Tried to negotiate a more fair deal after the automatically renewed subscription but they would not shorten the contract. They don’t care about their customers! Cons Renewed subscription automatically. Price went up threefold. Renewed for another year and would not shorten term. Offered to downgrade program which is less expensive but totally useless to me. Review Source BB Brandon B. COO Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Houzz Pro keeps me organized!" July 3, 2024 4.0 The learning curve on Houzz Pro was pretty simple to get going, however being a deconstruction contractor in which the program was not designed for it has taken a few years to get it adapted for me and I still have a ways to go it seems. Pros With Houzz Pro I'm able to manage my customers and projects with efficiency and stay highly organized. Using the takeoffs side of the program I have been able to develop standards in my estimating and templates to speed up the process. Cons The customer section is built for working with one client per project. I'm a deconstruction subcontractor that works with big General contractors that have multiple project managers, and estimators that I work with. That part gets complicated for me at times. Alternatives considered [Procore Estimating](https://www.capterra.com/p/157661/Esticom/)[Buildertrend](https://www.capterra.com/p/70092/Buildertrend/) Reason for choosing Houzz Pro Cost, ease of use, customer support, and constant improvement of the software. Review Source Response from Houzz July 9, 2024 Hi Brandon, thanks for the feedback. I totally hear what you are saying given your client is the GC firm - we are working on this and would love to speak with you directly - please let me know if we can connect, sending my email. Liza ML Miguel L. Interior Designer Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent service" February 22, 2025 5.0 Excellent service! I do like the platform, marketing, and design tools. Pros I like using stopwatch, time/expenses, retainers, invoices, and payment. I also like takeoffs. Cons Leads. I get a lot of spam. Also, the leads (that seem real) disappear after the first call as ghosts. Review Source Daniel J. T. Building inspector Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Houzz for the win!" November 27, 2024 5.0 Very helpful to get inspirations for how I want to design my space Pros The simplicity of the interface. Very easy to use Cons Some of the styles return similar results, despite being different Review Source EH Emily H. Designer Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A go to for designers and contractors " October 24, 2024 4.0 great - comparable to other major construction crm softwares - affordable and good learning content Pros Very user friendly - comparable to buildertrend and jobtread. Allows for better job coordination and customer service. Cons Learning material needs to be more specific - 45 minute videos shortened down into separate videos Review Source Response from Houzz November 4, 2024 Thank you for the training feedback! Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can help with learning or support. LK Laura K. Production Manager Construction Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Day 1 pleased customer" August 22, 2024 5.0 I have had a delightful experience with everyone from Houzz Pro and the software so far. Pros I like the ease of use with houzz pro, I am on day 1 of getting this software and so far I have taught myself quite a bit. Cons I am coming from pen and paper to a software, so I dont have any negative things to say, I am happy with their customer service employees and thrilled with the ease of use.

Customer service is helpful when you need them. Interface is great. Pros The proposal application. It makes creating proposals for clients really easy. Cons This pricing. It seems a bit pricey, but I guess its worth it. Switched from [Google Docs](https://www.capterra.com/p/160756/Google-Docs/) The proposal and payment system is unmatched. Review Source JH Jacob H. Owner Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Customer Service" August 28, 2024 1.0 I so far dont like houzz pro. Ive been trying to use it after i paid a lot of money for it, and i can't. The manager i was assigned to doesn't answer nor call me. Customer service is terrible, and nothing gets resolved. While they are trying to sale you their service they are readily available anytime you call or email. Once you pay for the services noone will help you. Noone else will help you. You have to depend on the salesperson that tricks you into purchasing a subscription every time you call. Cons Nothing is to like so far. I cant get the help i meed to even experience my subscription. Review Source Response from Houzz September 4, 2024 Jacob - this is clearly not an acceptable experience. Please don't hesitate to reach for me directly so I can resolve right away - I'm including my email. -Chloe JD Jessica D. President Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great product, still working out some issues" July 31, 2024 5.0 It's a great software program for a residential remodeler who needs estimating, takeoff, and other project management features. Pros I like the ease of set-up, the multiple available features, the availability of help and feedback from Houzz associates. For a company our size (2-5 employees) it is an affordable alternative to other project management software that is usually exorbitantly expensive. Cons Some of the features are still a little wonky, but the company is still actively trying to improve the product so it's not a huge problem. Alternatives considered [Contractor Foreman](https://www.capterra.com/p/166113/Contractor-Foreman/) Reason for choosing Houzz Pro Again, Houzz has more applicable features for our company and we've worked with Houzz in the past so we already had a basis of trust. Review Source Response from Houzz August 5, 2024 Thanks for the feedback Jessica. As you are aware we are continuously updating our features based on user feedback - please don't hesitate to reach out to share the specifics. Sending you my contact information - Liza SS SK S. Interior Designer Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A Houzz Pro Converter" August 14, 2024 5.0 I've marketed on Houzz for years but have been using my original client facing software throughout it all. This year, I decided to refresh my subscriptions and got introduced to Houzz Pro and WOW! I am blown away by the upgrades of this service and how easy it is tp use. Pros I like how intuitive it is and how inclusive. The service as a whole could take me from concept to completion with each design project. Cons I've only been in in for the month, so I'm learning as I go, but so far there has been a lot of help to understand the details and services. Responses are fast. Alternatives considered [Studio Designer](https://www.capterra.com/p/217839/Studio-Designer/) Reason for choosing Houzz Pro Affordable and all inclusive. One stop shop! Switched from [Dubsado](https://www.capterra.com/p/206389/Dubsado/)[Studio Designer](https://www.capterra.com/p/217839/Studio-Designer/) I got Houzz Pro with my subscription to market and I decided to try it out. Review Source MP Michelle P. General Contractor Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Overall great software" June 29, 2024 4.0 Pros The estimating feature. We love the options we can adjust to customize our estimates to fit our business's needs. Cons That the estimates can't be permanently locked for the clients. The estimate is a live link so if you don't change the settings back before a client re-clicks the link, they can see all your internal prices. Also, the floorplan layout is great but lacking in options for finishes and it would be lovely to have a deck/screen porch feature. Switched from [CostEstimator.com](https://www.capterra.com/p/214102/CostEstimator-com/) We tried CostEstimator and BuilderTrend before. Neither had the estimating features and customization that Houzz Pro had. That is why we signed up. Review Source Response from Houzz July 10, 2024 Thank you for your feedback Michelle! The customization options available on Estimates, include the ability to hide columns from your client. Even after sharing an estimate with a client, you can always go back to Edit mode to check your internal prices without affecting the client view. If you mark certain columns as hidden from the client, they will not be visible to the client.
