Fieldwire
6.1/10Fieldwire is jobsite management software from Hilti that construction field teams use to view plans, manage tasks and punch lists, and run inspections.
Data last updated November 2026 · Our methodology
Overview
Fieldwire is a cloud-based jobsite management platform for construction teams. Hilti acquired the company for about $300 million in 2021. Field crews, foremen, and superintendents use it to view and mark up drawings, track revisions, and assign tasks and punch items that are pinned to plan locations. Teams can follow work in list, Kanban, or Gantt views and run digital checklists and inspection forms. The mobile app works offline and syncs changes when the device reconnects. Pricing is per user and billed annually. A free Basic plan allows 5 users, 3 projects, and 100 sheets. Pro costs $39 per user per month and adds reports, sheet compare, and templates. Business costs $64 and adds custom forms, app integrations, custom task fields, and a BIM viewer. Business Plus costs $89 and adds RFIs, submittals, change orders, and budget tools. Custom contracts add SSO, unlimited-user options, and dedicated success teams. Access to the REST API requires a contract of $5,000 or more. Reviewers praise how quickly field staff learn the app and its offline drawing access. Common complaints are that per-user costs climb quickly past a handful of users and that report customization is limited. Financial tools sit in the top tier, and some users report sync delays or bugs. Fieldwire is not built for maintaining operating assets. It has no CMMS-style preventive maintenance, sensor monitoring, or spare-parts inventory, so it fits construction delivery rather than plant operations.
