What eSUB does
eSUB is built only for commercial trade contractors such as electrical, mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, concrete, masonry, steel and drywall subs. Field crews log daily reports and field notes, track time and materials, and submit RFIs, submittals and change orders from the eSUB mobile app.
In the office, teams manage drawings, document control, purchase orders, job costing and reporting, and build AIA-style pay applications from a schedule of values. eSUB integrates with QuickBooks, Sage 100 and 300, Vista, ComputerEase, FOUNDATION and Jonas, and has introduced Fusion, a newer web and mobile experience for trade contractors.
Founded in 2008 in San Diego, eSUB has raised about $23.5 million from investors including Catalyst Investors and Revolution Ventures. Pricing is by quote. Reviewers praise support and change order tracking, and mention glitches and cost for small teams.
