The short version

  • Only STACK Construction Technologies has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Procore pricing based on Annual Construction Volume (ACV) requires custom quote—no fixed public pricing available; STACK Construction Technologies takeoff and Estimate is priced per user at $249 per user per month, so cost scales linearly with estimators
  • They diverge on capability: Procore covers Project management, STACK Construction Technologies covers Digital takeoff.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Procore

  • Pricing based on Annual Construction Volume (ACV) requires custom quote—no fixed public pricing available
  • Field Productivity product uses FTE (Full-Time Equivalent) pricing model rather than standard ACV, adding complexity to cost estimation
  • Requires direct sales contact for pricing; not available for self-service selection

STACK Construction Technologies

  • Takeoff and Estimate is priced per user at $249 per user per month, so cost scales linearly with estimators
  • The full platform combining takeoff, estimating and field management starts at $298 per user per month
  • Field and project management is sold as a separate Build and Operate product starting at $49 per user per month rather than bundled with takeoff
  • The Build and Operate product offers only a two-week free trial, with the free version limited to Takeoff and Estimate
