GDS Estimating WinBidPro

WinBidPro is estimating software for commercial glazing and storefront work. The vendor's site describes features for drawing elevations, generating reports, estimating part, glass, and labor costs, printing CAD details and elevation drawings, working with vendor catalogs, and optimizing stock lengths to reduce wasted material. It lists support for over 20 vendor catalogs, and states that in version 16 manufacturer catalogs are hosted in the cloud so catalog updates apply in real time across a company account.

The product is built for glaziers who design, estimate, and build aluminum framed glass openings and entrances for commercial buildings, according to the vendor's site. It runs on Windows machines; the site states it is not compatible with Mac OSX and requires Windows 8 or later. Catalog data is described as cloud based, while the application itself is installed on a Windows machine, so the deployment combines a local client with cloud-hosted catalogs.

Pricing is published directly on the site. A yearly plan is listed at 600 USD per year for the first user, with 260 USD per year for each additional user, and a monthly plan is listed at 65 USD per user per month. Every license reportedly includes use on any Windows machine, free tech support, and access to training resources. The site does not detail how the vendor catalogs integrate technically, nor does it describe any on-premise-only option beyond the Windows client requirement.
