There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to choosing the best software tools for your construction management needs. You have to consider various factors, such as your project size, scope, and complexity, your budget and resources, your team skills and preferences, and your client and stakeholder expectations. You also have to compare the features, benefits, and drawbacks of different software tools, as well as their compatibility and integration with each other. You can use online reviews, ratings, and testimonials, as well as free trials and demos, to help you evaluate and select the best software tools for your construction management performance.

My experience is that when you are selecting a software system, you should keep in mind the business and ICT strategy as well as core process change management on the operational and middle managers level. Without the proper change management, the implementation will be difficult and takes a lot of time. There should be an implementation plan including change management steps ensuring personnel involvement in implementation steps.
