Trimble ProjectSight

Trimble ProjectSight is construction project management software for coordinating project records and stakeholder work. It is best suited to general contractors, MEP contractors, and specialty subcontractors that need field access alongside document and workflow coordination. Its free plan supports a small portfolio, while larger workloads call for paid storage or an enterprise plan.

Overview

ProjectSight focuses on construction projects, bringing collaboration around records and processes such as contracts and change orders. That makes it a more relevant fit for construction teams than a generic project tracker; it is less compelling for organizations that do not need construction-specific coordination.

Key features

The iOS and Android app is included with every version and gives teams access to project information in the field. Including mobile access across plans is a practical strength for crews and project stakeholders who work away from a desk, though the free plan’s project and storage caps still apply.

The API allows developers to extract, view, and update project data programmatically. It can suit teams that need to handle project data through their own systems, without requiring every user to work solely in the application.

Trimble Marketplace integrations include Procore, Spectrum, Trimble Connect, Unity Construct, and Vista. The Trimble Connect integration brings construction documents, models, and project management workflows together in a common data environment. The Vista connection has a significant deployment restriction: it requires cloud-deployed Vista and will not work for customers running Vista on premises.

ProjectSight Web supports the latest 64-bit versions of Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. Trimble's EMEA ProjectSight page says the product is certified to ISO 27001 and SOC Types 1, 2, and 3 standards, and supports custom security profiles and Trimble Identity single sign-on. Phone support is available Monday to Friday, 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST, at (800) 565-9490.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited users, but is capped at 3 projects and 2 GB of storage. It is a sensible way for a team to begin coordinating a small project set, but the storage allowance and project ceiling limit its usefulness as a portfolio grows.

Go costs $29 a month per user, billed annually, and includes 15 GB of storage. It raises the storage allowance for teams needing more room, but unlimited users are a Free-plan feature; the per-user paid price can therefore matter when budgeting for broad access. The Enterprise plan has custom pricing and is for organizations with 30+ users.

Platforms

ProjectSight is available on the web, iOS, and Android, with an API for programmatic access to project data. The mobile app is included in each version, so field access is not reserved for paid customers.

Who it's for

General contractors, MEP contractors, and specialty subcontractors are the intended audience. ProjectSight is strongest for construction businesses coordinating project records and processes, particularly when they value mobile access or need to connect construction workflows. Teams using on-premises Vista should not choose it expecting the Vista integration to work.

Pros and cons

• Pro: The mobile app is included with every version, giving field teams access without a separate mobile-plan charge.
• Pro: The API supports extracting, viewing, and updating project data, useful for teams that work with project information programmatically.
• Pro: The free plan has unlimited users, which helps small teams try project coordination without per-seat costs.
• Con: Free use is limited to 3 projects and 2 GB of storage, a tight fit for larger or expanding portfolios.
• Con: Go is priced per user and billed annually, so the paid tier may become a substantial commitment for a large user base.
• Con: Vista integration is unavailable to on-premises customers.

Alternatives

Consider Fieldwire if its Basic plan’s 5-user, 3-project, and 100-sheet limits suit your team, or if you need Pro’s unlimited projects and sheets at $39 a month billed annually. Buildxact is another freemium option, with a free Go plan that includes 5 complimentary credits, AI estimating, professional proposals, and Home Depot material ordering. For a free option with 3D Floor Planner, estimates, and invoicing, consider Houzz; its Pro plan is $249 a month.

Trimble Viewpoint Vista ERP Software is worth considering if the ERP itself is your priority; it offers cloud-hosted and on-premises deployments with pricing by contacting sales. For other construction software options, browse Construction Project Management Software, Construction Management Software, or Project Management Software.

Verdict

Choose Trimble ProjectSight if your construction business needs shared project records, included mobile access, and a route to programmatic data access. The free plan is a low-commitment starting point for a small portfolio, but teams should compare its caps with Go’s per-user annual billing before expanding. Look elsewhere if those limits do not fit or if your Vista deployment is on premises.
