The CapEx Platform Built for Owners, Not General Contractors
Procore is built for GCs managing construction projects. Banner is built for owners and operators managing capital across their entire portfolio.
Why Teams Switch from Procore
Common frustrations we hear from teams evaluating alternatives to Procore.
Built for GCs, Not Owners
Procore's workflows are designed around general contractor needs — not the owner's perspective on budgets, draws, and portfolio-level visibility.
Expensive Per-User Pricing
Procore's per-user model gets expensive fast when you need to give access to asset managers, accountants, and regional teams.
No Native Draw Management
Procore lacks purpose-built lender draw workflows. Teams end up managing draw packages in spreadsheets alongside Procore.
Overwhelming for CapEx-Only Teams
Procore's breadth of GC features creates complexity for teams that just need financial control over capital projects.

Banner vs Procore: Common Questions
Answers to questions we frequently hear from teams considering switching.
Procore is a construction management platform built primarily for general contractors. Banner is a capital expenditure management platform built specifically for real estate owners, operators, and developers. Banner focuses on the financial side — budgets, draws, approvals, and portfolio visibility — rather than field-level construction management.
If your primary need is managing capital project finances (budgets, draws, invoicing, approvals), Banner is a more focused and cost-effective solution. If you also need field-level GC tools like daily logs and punch lists, some teams use both, with Banner handling the financial layer.
Procore uses per-user pricing that can escalate quickly as you add team members. Banner uses portfolio-based pricing, so you can give unlimited access to asset managers, accountants, and executives without per-seat costs.
Yes, Banner can integrate with Procore for teams that want to keep using Procore for field-level construction management while using Banner for financial oversight and portfolio-level CapEx management.
Most teams are fully operational on Banner within 4 weeks. Our implementation team handles data migration, system configuration, integrations with your PMS, and team training.
