Beginner Xactimate Version X1 Walkthrough with Alena Wilson 

As a beginner to xactimate, I found your video to be precise and accurate training for us newbies. Thanks

I needed a review because it's been a few years since I was an adjuster. This is perfect! Thank you!

This was so helpful. I thought it would be a lot more complicated but this video gets you started with just the right amount of information.

This was great. First time using xactimate. I’m not so intimidated now. Thank you. Gonna sketch my house now and practice some claims.

Great Job. My position changed at work and now I have to write estimates. I always said estimators are gods. You made understanding the program easy. Thanks for posting the video

Just starting with a firm that uses xactimate, this is priceless. Thank you.

independent adjuster heading to my first assignment with 12 hours notice these videos are clutch thank you so much

Soon, I will be using Xactimate on a new project, wanted to get an overview of what to expect. You nailed it! 🫡👍🏾 Very straight forward -Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise Aleena. Deeply appreciate your kindness.

I just started a water and fire mitigation company and i must say this video is the best

Thank you so much for this video. I feel like I am ready to purchase my subscription and create my first ever supplement report. Lots of years in the industry and have never had to work on insurance claims. thank you so much!

Thanks for this simple, beginner-friendly show. You explained it so well it was so helpful!

That was fantastic tutorial training. I am just watching tuturials since i dont have idea about xactimate program but I am really interestred to learn though i dont have training on sketching or engineering. This video encourages me to learn this applicatipon. Thanks

Thank you. I am a new adjuster, I start training next month.This was very helpful!

I just got my 620 All lines Adjuster license.. This helped me save money and learn what I need to know to get a job. THANK YOU

Thank you, your video was very helpful in learning the basic ins and outs of the Xactimate program.

I had used the older version of Xactimate back in 2012, but have found this latest version exceptionally great. The tutorial was also very intuitive. The host was awesome and extremely knowledgeable. GREAT piece!

I've been consuming your content all morning, and I just have to say that not only is your info very helpful, You are quite funny!

First time I've watched it one of your videos. Only have one computer so I took notes. Ready and not intimidated to get into Xactimate. Explanations were easily understood. I thought it was great.

Love it. I'm starting training as an adjuster for an insurance company, and we are starting on Xactimate this week. Great reinforcement.

followed along and completed first one!!! Thank you sooo much

I have used Xactimate for insurance and property management companies. I also have used XactRemodel with a couple of different remodeling companies. I am "retired" but still do a few drawings and design work and some estimating. I checked out your videos because someone came to me who was looking for a good estimating program. I recommended XactRemodel and I was looking for some training videos to get them started. I do appreciate your presentation because you go through on a straight line to get them started. When I started with Xactamate they took us through most of the different ways to use the program all at once, THAT was so confusing that we had to almost get rid of all that was said and just find a way to get an estimate done. We didn't realize that there is about 4 -5 ( maybe more) ways to do an estimate, so that wasn't clear when first introduced us to the program, the other guy from our company just gave up and left me to figure it out.

I loved this video as a new adjuster it was GOLD! Thanks so much

This video was explained very well, step by step. Very easy to follow and understand.

Great Job. You have the heart of a teacher and I am happy to subscribe. I currently work as a secretary, but am thinking of changing careers to become a Desk Adjuster (because I do not want to go out into the field and climb roofs). Your video is very useful because I use it to determine whether or not I feel that this is something I would be comfortable doing. And it is!!!

GREAT content. Very helpful. I've gone through many of your videos. Your teaching skills are excellent. Thank you.

Yayks! Great work! Newbie to the industry (new mom ;) too ), decided to work from home and found a client who belongs to the Restoration Management. I will be linking this video to my training manual ..

Excellent video, I'm trying to learn Xactimate. I will watch this video again, along with other videos you've created. I don't understand the thumbs down on this.

This video has helped me in so many ways. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge

Great video... I am an experienced Designer with Chief Architect and found this to be similar. Thx

I am trying to get into Field Adjusting vs a workers' comp adjuster. This was really helpful and I am hoping to view more of Alena's training. She explains it well.

Good refresher for moving from 28 to X1

This is exactly what I needed. It was very clear and concise. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

Fantastic presentation for newbies like me. THANKS

The tutorial was great step by step ... and you are a great instructor

Informative and taught fluently for a seasoned adjuster coming back from my industry hiatus. Awesome refresher thanks. See you on the next one.

Thank you for this video, I am a new adjuster and have had a hard time finding training to do xactimate. I want to be able to do supplementing as well so I look forward to your next class, it appears I just missed it.

Great! first time using Xactimate practicing makes perfect

Thank you so much. This was easy to follow. I'm trying to obtain a job and this will give me competitive edge. I so appreciate this.👏🏿👏🏿

This is a really helpful video. I just got my Texas Adjusters license and this video is needed for adjusters like me. I used to go to Rosewell to do shopping when I was in Carlsbad.

getting into the field, your video was awesome, very clear, detailed and to the point. thank you for your time!

Great video. Tons of Information packed into 45 minutes.

An excellent tutorial for either first timer or refresher. Very thorough and kept simple. I'm headed to the next one. Keep up the great work. Very appreciative!

HI, I am new to the reconstruction industry, I have worked as PC adjustor Years ago, and am now trying to break into this field so , nerdy as It sounds. I am teaching myself everything from scratch and I have watched alot of videos and yours are amazing, thank you. (I can't afford xactware) so this is a blessing.

Thank you for your videos. I used to write you from a “Meanz of Operation.” Your insight is always appreciated

Your video was very informative and to the point. As someone whom has never used the software, I felt that I learned the entire program in one course. Thank you!

Great Content. loved the delivery and clarity, makes me very comfortable on my adjuster journey. Thank you

Like your easy to follow videos. I needed brushing up, this helped a lot.

Thank you so much for explaining everything so simpily, i have been trying to learn x1 for over a month and this video is the only one that has helped at all!

Thank you! This was a great first venture into Xactimate

Excellent presentation

This was actually much better than the x1 class u took 🤣 thank you so much I'm going to look at all of your videos I'm a new independent adjuster trying to get my feet wet with Property

Thanks for the video. I'm an aspiring p&c adjuster (getting my license in a week) and very new to the xactimate program. You've done a great job of taking the anxiety out of learning a new complicated program. I know that this video serves as an intro into the estimating process. While there's a lot to this iceberg, your video gave me the confidence to take it on with confidence, efficiently and effectively. Since I'm pretty computer savvy with a good background in Microsoft Office Suite, the software seems to be pretty intuitive and easy to learn. Anyway, thanks again for the great work and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

This was great! I’m new to Xactimate and this course was much better than the one offered on Udemy!

Wow you are very good. I know I will become a master of Exactimate with your tutorials. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

I just started a few days ago and to say I’m a train wreck is an understatement! Frustration level is at maximum.

This helped me get kickstarted, great video!

Concise, engaging, and smart.

Thanks for the video. First time user and feeling good already.

Thank you for your walk through. very helpful. so much to learn. This makes you my new hero ;)

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain Xactimate. Very helpful!!!

Very informative and well explained. Thank you very much.

Thanks for breaking this down.

Excellent! Simple and straight-forward. Thank you!

Great instruction Alena! Thank you

She is very good and a great teacher

Your videos are so helpful do you have any video where you help adjusters work a claims?

This was great. Thank you. My first adventure into learning this program and this took all the fear away! :)

Thank you. This really helped me to understand what I need to do with Xactimate. I'm a first time IA. I haven't started yet still doing my training. I will be looking at more of your pages to help me in my training. Thank you so much.

I'm just starting out and about to start my Xactimate training. This was helpful.

great job Alena, very informative, I learned a lot from watching your video. Looking forward to looking at your other video's

Very informative. Excellent intro.

As a intermediate user, I still learned.

Fantastic! I will check back often! Thank you so much for the help.

Excellent Video, having in account the details is amazing for a newbies adjusters, Thanks

Excellent, very detailed info. Well presented and easy to understand for the most part. My only suggestion pertains to people who are new to the restoration industry: when you talk about abbreviations such as D&R, R&R, TPA, etc, it would be helpful if you told us what these abbreviations mean.

Great Help !! This video definitely helped break the ice with XM8. Thanks !! You Rock !! 😊

Excellent tutorial...glad I got to see it!!

Excellent Presentation!! Thank You!

Thanks for the basics. I'm on to your next video. ;)

Nicely done for a first time user. Thank you

It was nice Alena. thank you. My friend suggest me this software and your beginner's video. I am glad to make myself feel that i can do this

This is an amazing video very informative and straight to the point. I could have watched that video for entertainment.

Thank you this was very informational

Thank you so much. Love the videos. Very informative and easy to follow!

Wonderful info for a beginner like me. Where can I find a list of your videos in order as the best way to watch them as a beginner? Thanks for the great vids!

Consistent and thorough...

Thank you so much! I’m glad to see this video. Just got mi license need all the information and help I can get specially with this main tool.

I have no experience with the house vocabulary but the technical stuff was very easy to understand. I worry like how would I know to use drywall or special paint coats ?! Or like what you said about the fan and then it might become electric

You made it simple. I am a first time user. Thank you. I look forward to more tutorials from you.

Great content. I am new to insurance adjusting. (Texas)

Hello.. Really insightful... Really would like to learn more.

I wasn't able to find the beginners tutorial for contractors. I'm a homeowner creating an estimate for a water leak. I've been in construction for 30 years and work in BIM using Revit. Secondary question, do you know of any way to import data from Autodesk software (either Autocad or Revit) into Xactimate?

Excellent teacher 🤩

This is really great for me. Help me a lot.

thank you Alena good info

Thank you so much for this channel! I plan to use your channel to educate myself to Xactimate Certification Level 1 at least

Well done. Thank you.

This was helpful as this software isn't very "user friendly". I am brand new at this and just got this software and I am trying to learn it. Is there set up that should be done at the very beginning "out of the box?". If so, how/where? Also mine doesn't have the plus sign to start a new project? I am on X1 Online version. Thank you!

Thank you very much. You are a STAR
