Right-Sized For Growing Contractors
Procore Is Built For Billion-Dollar Projects. Are You?
Procore is the market leader in construction management—for companies managing mega-projects with hundreds of subcontractors and dedicated IT departments. If you’re building skyscrapers or managing a $500M project portfolio, Procore makes sense.
But if you’re a growing contractor with 5-50 employees managing $1M-50M in projects? Procore is overkill. You’ll pay enterprise prices for enterprise complexity you don’t need, and spend months implementing a system designed for companies ten times your size.
Sitewise delivers professional construction management capabilities sized for growing contractors—comprehensive enough to run your business, simple enough that you don’t need consultants to set it up.

The Real Cost Comparison
What You’ll Actually Pay
Procore doesn’t publish pricing because it varies wildly based on negotiation and company size. Real customers report paying $375+ per user per month, plus implementation fees ranging from $10,000 to $100,000+ depending on complexity.
Procore also requires separate purchases for different modules—project management, financials, field productivity. Sitewise includes everything in one integrated platform.

FAQs
Is Sitewise powerful enough for real construction management?
Yes. We handle multi-phase projects, budget tracking, change orders, progress billing, document management, and field operations. We're not trying to compete for billion-dollar infrastructure projects—we're built for the 380,000+ construction companies in the 5-50 employee range that Procore underserves.
What about subcontractor management?
Sitewise handles sub coordination, scheduling, document sharing, and payment tracking. You control what information subs can access per project.
Can I do progress billing and retention tracking?
Yes. Percentage-complete billing, milestone-based billing, AIA-style documentation, retention calculation, and release tracking are all built in—not add-on modules.
Will Procore users be able to share documents with me?
Sitewise uses standard document formats (PDF, etc.) that can be shared with anyone. If you're working as a sub on a Procore-managed project, you can still use Sitewise for your internal operations.
