Plexxis Software
PLEXXIS serves as a comprehensive solution for subcontractors by integrating project management, accounting, estimating, takeoff, and mobile applications within a unified technological framework. Furthermore, Plexxis ensures that all implementation and support services are handled entirely in-house, while also offering straightforward agreements designed to safeguard subcontractors from several issues. These include unfair subscription practices, where vendors lack transparency regarding total onboarding costs and may misrepresent offerings without providing reasonable cancellation options. Additionally, they combat cloud cuffing, a tactic where vendors demand fees before clients are operational and may hold client data hostage to extract further payments. The platform also addresses smoke stacking, which occurs when vendors exaggerate the integration capabilities of their tools, and overages, where clients receive vague service rates and non-binding estimates that lead to unexpected change orders. Overall, Plexxis prioritizes the needs of subcontractors by promoting clarity and fairness in their agreements and services.
