Xactimate® 25 Key Features

Here are some of the exciting features available in Xactimate 25:

Sketch Wizards
Additional estimation wizards for plumbing, HVAC, insulation, and decks have been added to automate common estimating workflows and improve accuracy. These wizards automatically add the line items to the appropriate rooms in a single click.
Annotation Layer
This new annotation feature allows users to include notes on floor plans and digital images. These notes may be toggled on or off to better explain your estimate by adding notes, identifying the loss with circles, arrows, and other drawing tools.
Assignment Workflow
Send and receive assignments seamlessly through Xactimate. This streamlined assignment process reduces estimating time while improving accuracy.
Language Packs
New language packs are available for Xactimate-Spanish and French (CA), allowing the user to write their estimate in English while printing reports in Spanish or French, as an example.
New and Updated Flood Forms
Existing flood forms have been updated to match the latest NFIP reports. New flood forms have also been added, including the ICC Adjuster Report, Mobile Home Worksheet, and Preliminary Damage Assessment
Xactimate Dashboard
Upon login, the Control Center will show the last 10 projects opened as well as any new assignments that have been downloaded. Users can quickly connect to download assignments and other data when first entering Xactimate.
Claim Manager Enhancements
XactCentral is integrated into the Admin Info module, allowing users to create estimates, claim reports, and coverage types and limits from the same screen.
Microsoft Word Template Integration
The Word token functionality has been integrated directly into Xactimate, making it easier to create and use custom documents by dragging and dropping tokens in the preferred location.

Supported Tablet PCs

Xactware has always been, and continues to be, committed to developing software specifically targeted toward cutting-edge technology. In 1991, we were the first company in the insurance industry to develop property estimation software for the tablet PC. This platform was used to settle more than half a million property losses.

That tradition continues with Xactimate 24 / 25 and XactRemodel, designed to be fully compatible with virtually all recently available Tablet PCs running Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005. In fact, one of Xactware's largest customers is currently running Xactimate companywide on almost 2,000 Toshiba Tablet PCs.

As a normal course of Xactware's QA and product release testing, several Tablet PC models have been verified to be fully Xactimate version 24 and 25 compliant, including the following:

  • Convertible Tablet PCs
    Convertible tablets, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad X41, are equipped with keyboards. They resemble conventional laptop PCs but have the ability to rotate the touch-sensitive display and lay it flat over the key-board for a more comfortable, pen-based interface when desired. These devices are very versatile, allowing for fast keyboard entry when possible, but can be somewhat more fragile than other options.
  • Slate Tablet PCs
    Tablets such as the Toshiba R10-S804TD are thin, very lightweight, and are not equipped with keyboards. Some models do come with removable, portable keyboards. Virtually all modules have docking stations available that provide for attachment to a full-size monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
  • Ruggedized Tablet PCs
    These devices are built for environments where hardware may be easily damaged. They are typically equipped with tough casings and shock-absorbing hard drives. These tablets are intended for a workforce in outdoor, dirty, and less than ideal conditions. They are ultradurable but are often more expensive than other comparable models and typically lag behind in overall computing power and features.
Xactimate Integration with DISTO™ and Bluetooth®

Xactimate communicates with Bluetooth devices such as the Leica DISTO laser measuring device and wireless headsets. With a wireless headset and DISTO, estimators can set their laptop nearby and enter dimensions for rooms in a loss without touching a keyboard or a mouse.
