I just recently watched all of the new instructional videos on the eInspections website. I think they are very well thought out, easy to follow, and easy to understand. Very professional!! This is an awesome software package, especially since the most recent upgrades.
Any inspector looking for a “competitive edge” owes it to themselves to take a long hard look at eInspections and the Inspection Support Network. With the new revisions to the software, I give it 5 Stars out of 5. Excellent!!
On the other hand I would opt to purchase http://www.homeinspectorpro.com/ and never have to spend another dime on reports. This software is 100% customizable, literally can strip the existing templates down and replace it with an existing narrative reporting system that you currently use. This way both your electronic versions and hardcopy versions are consistant.
Just putting some options out there Plus, eInspections is NOT an online system. It’s a full software package. It has an online scheduling management system, though.
You can use eInspections electronic field report alone without using their scheduling software, however, if you do need an office management/scheduling package theirs works with other electronic field reports as well, not just their own.
Steve - eInspections report can be setup to be completely narrative if you want it to be. “Customizable” is truly the word. All narrative, all checkbox or a combination of both along with way to many other features to list here. Purchase it outright if you like but for me…unlimited use of the report and free upgrades as they come out for just $70.00 a month with fantastic support via phone, email or directly into your computer in the field is simply a no brainer.
I like to look at some of the different options the software has. To receive updates and get support
Einspection charges $840. Year
Horizion Charges $795. Year
Inspectvue Charges 250. Year
HIP Charges .00 Year
There are others but i dont know them off the top of my head. Check out all your options before you decide. ( Did i say that HIP does NOT charge for support?? and Inspectvue only charges $250.) $700 - $800 is a lot for support.
All of the software COs supply support for the first year . After that is when they charge
Einspection charges $840. Year
Horizion Charges $795. Year
Inspectvue Charges $250. Year
HIP Charges $.00 Year
OK, once again…they do not charge for support. The 70.00 a month is for “Leasing” the software, not support. The way you have stated it above sounds like they are charging you 840.00 for support, which is not correct.
If you choose to lease the program, it 70.00 a month. If you choose to buy it, it’s 995.00. They have a 100.00 set-up fee in th beginning, because it is completely customizable.
THIS is from site Please note PER YEAR Annual Price Plan
Flat rate of $795.00 per year
Each additional inspector - $595.00 per year
Unlimited Use
No Extra Fees or Hidden fees
E inspections is very expensive from what I just saw.
They charge xtra for every computer while HIP charges nothing.
I see you even get ripped for a startup fee.$100
If you got that kinda money to blow you might not need this career.
Im not trying to win. Im just putting out more information for people to see. and make there decision. I hate when a vender puts out only half of the information. or uses the old fine print.
