Electric job calculator???
Drakelucian

Most trades have a list of items pertaining to their specific trade so you can calculate job costs. What happened when you guys did the electrical portion of the app.? Did you fall asleep? I'm an electrician, to me this app. is useless. The math calcs. I can do on my own, cute for someone who doesn't do them everyday for a living. On a high note for other trades I think you did good.


Mortgage calculators are outstanding!!!
indexwiz

This app is a great tool for doing loan comparisons, down payment calcs, maximum loan calcs, loan comparisons, and amortization schedules. Just awesome!!,


Well done
Tonyg2724

Overall a fairly thorough app. I wish more time could be put into the hours estimate portion of the program. A material price guideline would be icing on the cake. Great app though.


Great Great but overwhelming
What I think about that

Hundreds of programs in one. Number one go to program for construction.
