## The answer, as recorded

> There's no single "best" - the right pick depends mostly on your annual construction volume and whether your pain is field coordination or back-office money. Here's who I'd actually name, in order:

The catch is real: pricing is quoted off Annual Construction Volume with no public rates, and contractors report roughly $15K-$30K/yr at $10-50M ACV and $30K-$80K/yr at $50-200M, before implementation and with renewal increases in the 5-14% range.

> **2. Autodesk Construction Cloud / Autodesk Build** - the one to pick instead of Procore if your bottleneck is design coordination, BIM, and model-to-field workflows, or if your team already lives in Revit and AutoCAD. It's the closest enterprise-grade alternative for full project delivery. (Note: some 2
