Software Shouldn't Take Hours to Learn
We noticed an interesting trend prior to building Spexbook. Enterprise software is becoming more difficult to use and not as reliable while consumer software is becoming easier to use and more reliable. However, we noticed this trend doesn't exist outside the software realm. In the industrial realm, commercial tools are still more superior to consumer tools. Why is it the other way around with software? We set out to change that in the construction industry with Spexbook.
You don't need a certification to operate a piece of software that was supposedly designed to make your job easier.
We spent weeks challenging ourselves to build construction software that is on par with the apps you use to order your food and connect with your family and friends. We wanted to build a tool that empowers you to do your job better with as little friction as possible. We thought deeply about the user interface and how we could make Spexbook as easy to use as possible. We believe you don't need a certification to operate a piece of software that was supposedly designed to make your job easier. After all, software and computers in general were not invented to slow you down. You don't get a user manual on how to use Uber and most social media apps. You almost instantly know how to use them, but somehow you're expected to take a 20-hour course or invest hours of your time to learn how to use a piece of software for work. It's backwards. We designed Spexbook so that everything is a click or two away. Our promise here is to keep Spexbook easy to use as we continue to add features. A certification for knowing how to use Spexbook will not be a thing but you'll be certified to do your job better because that's all that matters.
