### "Maturing with JONAS"

October 18, 2016

5.0

It was hard work. The JONAS staff was always encouraging and available. I feel that JONAS is not just a product we use but a partner with MAX Construction, Inc. I love sharing my ideas with JONAS. Some even are being adopted. Some are not, but as a team we are getting the best of both worlds and a product that can be catered to our needs. JONAS listens and adapts the ideas that will benefit the majority.

Pros

All information is in real time. Now that we are set up and operating we are developing the reports, and switching over to JONAS as our total system. Eventually we hope to be paperless. I love that I can access JONAS from anywhere in the world. I like the challenge of making this product something special. It looks like it was written for our needs only and yet it services such a large variety of customers.

Cons

It would be nice if all documents could be scrolled.

Now that I have all of the contact info for support - I'm happy:) But I can not say enough good things about Team! professionalism of team is exceptional ! and team has the patience of a saint.

Pros

Very easy to use once you get acclimated to it - I had a hard time switching from IE to the cloud but I'm getting the hang of it !

Cons

I'm working on those.Using the cloud tends to make it a bit slower when adding info - I'm used to Internet Explorer and zipping thru but I'll get it ! Thanks to Team - the absolute best and MOST patient team EVER!

### "Not for non accountants"

December 5, 2016

2.0

There is just about nothing intuitive about this software. I have been using Simply accounting for more than 10 years without a problem. i was lost using this system. There are so many steps for a simple entry that it became ridiculous.

Pros

It does everything for construction management. It stores drawings, alerts everyone of change orders ccnn's , rfi's and does accopunting too.

Cons

My bookkeeper looked at it and asked if I would mind if she took the info from my entries and continued using sage. There is no payroll with this. They suggest outsourcing payroll - another added expense

### "The support and customer service from Implementation team was excellent. "

February 22, 2018

5.0

Pros

It takes time to set up the whole system correctly, but the overall experience is fantastic, especially for job cost reporting. It really helped our PM and Superintendent to get real cost in time to have better budget control.

Cons

Customized cost report function hasn't been implemented. However I understand that they have been addressing this issue in their calendar.

### "Almost There"

June 25, 2018

4.0

I know we made the right chose when we decided to have Jonas Premier be our new software. I have been doing ok with it, getting a little easier each day. But, I think that customer service is critical in the success of any company today, and Jonas Premier is one of the best in customer service!!!

Pros

The customer service and staff have been wonderful. There is never a problem having questions answered and even having a one on one conference to resolve any problems or issues.

Cons

I have had a slight problem getting accustomed to the software and how it works. As with anything new, there is always a learning curve, training yourself to work differently. The videos are good but some were difficult to listen to. But, the staff from Jonas Premier has helped me almost immediately.

### "Construction Management"

June 7, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love the web-based interface, and the level of customization for forms is excellent. I like the fact that the platform uses microsoft office applications for some of the integration. I also like that this makes the progress billing easy for my client.

Cons

I am an accounting professional and I greatly prefer transactional systems rather than batch systems.

### "Disappointed with Jonas Premier"

July 5, 2022

2.0

Relative to Construction, I would never recommend it. It seems like it was built for accounting and not for construction. There is no ease of use.

Pros

Relative to Construction, I don't like it.

Cons

Relative to Construction: It is cumbersome. It is not intuitive. You have to figure out work arounds to make it work. Customer service is not effective.

### "Made the transition to Jonas and we're so pleased!"

May 28, 2019

5.0

We had the most amazing Jonas employee walking us (hand holding) through the implementation period. She was just absolutely the best . It's been great to see how the modules work together and really solidify our project management and record keeping.

Pros

If you can think up a functionality, chances are Jonas already has created it or is in the process of creating it.

Cons

It currently doesn't offer consolidation capabilities, so we've had to create a work-around. Jonas is in the process of creating this functionality, and we're excited to use it once it's rolled out.

### "Jonas is a user- friendly!"

March 13, 2014

5.0

Jonas Software is a very good product, includes a low learning curve and a system that's easy to use. As well the system gather data from all aspects of our construction process and allow us to better manage our costs in our construction departments with better reporting tools. There is a lot of information in Jonas that can be used to analyze your company, also Jonas Software ensured accuracy, offers the security, reliability and a very quick response time on any queries. I would recommend Jonas for its support staff because they will always ensure that we understand all aspects and functions of the software system.

### "Jonas Premeir Software"

May 15, 2019

4.0

Once we are fully operating on Jonas Premeir, it will help to control payments to subs with the Pay When Pay feature, it will help save a lot of time pulling pay applications together, it will be awesome to pull together time charged to projects without the Pay period being posted, and many other options.

Pros

The ability to see the financial status of your projects, at a glance is really helpful. It is important to be able to follow your project budgets real time!

Cons

I would prefer the templates be more user friendly.
