Excellent tool

The Hover app is a great tool, I use it for creating as built drawings and it is an indispensable part of my everyday work

Project suddenly vanished

I spent most of an hour taking insurance pictures, following the prompts. Then app asked if I wanted to “Add pictures “, and I said yes to show sprinklers, hydrant, etc….and instead I went to a ground plan function and all my pictures were gone and I couldn’t go back to them. Kudos to their customer support, who were there without a wait and were able to confirm that the pictures were received. But please: don’t scare your clients like this!!

Stop trying to fix what’s not broke.

Hover has no sense of keeping a good product good. I constantly have to go back to properties and retake photos because it fails upload. Yes I have upload on WiFi only turned off, yes I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled, yes I’ve force closed and reopened, yes I’ve made sure it’s updated, yes I’ve tried refreshing the queue in upload manager. Every remedy is well memorized at this point.

You are failing contractors at a high rate. You’ve increased your pricing but service just gets poorer and poorer. I’ve had to order eagle views. Because I spent 20 minutes collecting data and photos on site with a potential client, I don’t want to return because my tool isn’t working correctly. I have been using eagle view significantly more as of late l, because your service is some of the worst in the industry. I can’t describe how irritated I am with your app experience. I would rate zero stars if I could. You have lost yourself yet another loyal customer. Not that you care with all the money you essentially steal from people because your app fails so often.

Response from developer

We can help with this! Please reach out to support@hover.to

Way too expensive

Hover works great but they charge way too much for independent sales guys.

They'll claim standard homes are "complex" and bill $150 for an exterior design unless you pay them $1000 for the privilege of being more than standard

Definitely not a product for the independent contractors

Sloppy Instructions

My insurance company contracts with the app to get a home inspection. The app is not set up to give complete instructions, so I logged in with Google... then nothing worked. I asked the help chat and they said I had to use my original email. No one said that, so this app wasted me at least an hour. I'm disgusted and annoyed.

Insurance

This app is very user friendly. I completed everything the on the first try.

Been wrong multiple times

When it works it’s great but I’ve had multiple jobs where it’s been inaccurate and cost me a lot of money. Double check your numbers

Listen to feedback

New design, no one likes it and it is buggy, please return legacy

Unwieldy and inaccurate

This app is absolutely terrible to try and get accurate dimensions with. If the room you are in is not a perfect square box it is going to think that everything is one large room and will not differentiate columns from walls. It is not user-friendly and is wildly inaccurate. If you have an open floor concept style home, it cannot accurately measure the room because it thinks everything is the same thing.

Multiple issues

The app fails constantly. And if you want to get interior measurements, don’t bother because the app constantly shuts down and does nothing more than waste phone battery.

Waste of Time. Uploaded 50 pictures and only 5 are in the report

My insurance company asked me to use this app for virtual inspection. Followed the process and uploaded all the pictures. Only the outside pictures ended up in the assessment when the insurance company needed both. And these pictures are taken through the app so I don’t have a backup aand have to take them again. Called support and they are unhelpful. This is not enterprise grade solution.

Great Support

The support team at Hover is incredibly. They are prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly. Their customer service is outstanding, and you couldn’t ask for a better support experience.

New to roofing but know garbage when I see it

This company is a joke. Rests on old tech and promises not kept. Hours for jobs to get quotes. Horrible service. Bye bye

Adjuster/ Contractor

Best program out there, consistently great results with great customer service.

Not much value

Difficult to use. Told by the Travelers insurance that I had to down load pictures to this app. Then what? No way to link or send information.

Great app

Been using it for years but some of the new stuff is great. The 3D measurements are much better.

Another scam

We signed up for a pro account for $99 a month. But that doesn’t include anything. That’s just a fee. Then if you do a job it’s $89 extra per job. Plus if they deem it “complex” they will add another $59. Not transparent at all. I despise these bait and switch corporation tactics with subscriptions. This is one of them.

APP NOT WORKING, poor customer service

I have been having issues with any of my photos uploading to jobs. The issue has been going on for a month now, and no one can seem to resolve the issue. As a contractor, this has a huge impact on how timely I am getting customers estimates.

Soooooooooooo slow now

Back in the day hover was awesome. Now it’s super super slow it’s infuriating when I have other jobs to do. Especially with AI being so good now doesn’t make much sense

Frustrating

App seemed great with lots of ways to check out and redesign your house. Frustrating part is after doing all that work and trying to save it, the app freezes and does not save.
