The evolution of Eagleview

By Emma Peterson. 

Dimitri Volkman and Chris Sanson discuss how Eagleview One™ builds on decades of measurement technology to give contractors greater control, consistency and efficiency. 

Recently, Dimitri Volkman and Chris Sanson stopped by The Coffee Shops® for an episode of Roofing Road Trips® all about Eagleview One™. Dimitri is the VP of product marketing at Eagleview and brings an extensive background in data platforms to the conversation, while Chris is the COO of Cox Roofing, and a multi-market exterior restoration contractor that has been using Eagleview’s tools for the last 15 years.  

And in those 15 years, Eagleview’s technology has made leaps and bounds. Eagleview has long been the leader of aerial imagery, but they did not rest on those laurels. In the 2010s, they released their game-changing measurement reports and in just the last couple years, they developed an entire platform called Eagleview One. Dimitri described this newest addition to the Eagleview portfolio:  

Eagleview One is an evolution of everything we’ve ever done packaged into one consistent and cost-effective solution for customers. And in addition to the tools that our customers know and love, so our high-resolution imagery and our accurate measurements, we’ve also worked to create new tools.  

These tools include a three-dimensional visualization tool, a pitch editor and a more! The goal, as Dimitri put it, was to create a platform that “builds on the traditional Eagleview products to give customers more control and value, as well as create a foundation for future tools coming down the pipeline.”  

And, Eagleview has definitely achieved and even surpassed this goal! Chris, who’s company, as we mentioned, has been using Eagleview for years now, can attest to how the development of Eagleview One has helped his team, “It’s really been great and it just keeps getting better and better. One of the big things for us was the standardization and efficiency we were able to achieve with the platform.” He went on, “Take the new reporting model for example, we can get our reports in everything from JSON files to ESX files. That means that everyone from our supplement team to our estimating team can use the same reports.”
