### "Modern report writing software."

May 3, 2022

5.0

Overall, Spectora has helped me with writing Home Inspection reports I can be proud of.

Pros

Modern report writing software. Aid me in writing a thorough report, while saving time.

Cons

Right now, my only Con is, copying a clients email. Minor detail, my opinion is user error.

### "Easy To Use"

February 13, 2024

5.0

Great, very detailed but easy to use. Pretty simple to understand.

Pros

Ease Of Use. Pretty simple to understand.

Cons

Inability to copy an entire callout to another section. Also if multiple inspectors are on one job, sometimes not all info sync's the first time.

### "State of the art software"

January 11, 2019

5.0

Previously it was a time consuming to do multiple tasks via different methods to schedule an inspection, so the ability to do pretty much do everything from one access point is a stellar business advantage. I am looking forward to growing in my skills with using Spectora to become fully mobile. In general, I have had a positive experience in using Spectora.

Pros

I like the ability to edit templates with ease, copy from one template to another, and copy a section(s) within a report to another section of the report. All done with relative ease. I like the scroll down layout in reporting. The overall scheduler and inspection details on front end as well as invoice system, sending of inspection agreement as well as automatic generation of emails and many other features are huge time savers. The tracking system and database features are critical in having information stored and easily accessible. Most importantly, even though I have always produced well written and thorough narrative reports, the software is allowing me to go from good reports to great reports, because I am saving time and reinvesting that time to producing ever higher quality, detailed reports.

Cons

The software is probably the most expensive software on the market; however, I believe ultimately you get what you pay for. I tell this very same thing to potential clients who are looking for the least costly Inspector. Hence, I best not be the pot calling the kettle black. On occasion, I have some technical issues with the software, but customer support is always quick to pounce on issues especially if it's an anomaly or possible bug on their end. My only concern at this juncture with the software is that they have many inspectors that want many different changes. In my opinion, this could lead to additional development issues or bugs as they keep playing with the software while perhaps the software doesn't have other issues resolved.

### "Good reporting"

January 29, 2024

Pros

Very simple to use and customer service is stellar !

Cons

A little quirky about photos blacking out. If that happens you have to close out the app and restarted. A bit of a pain.

### "Great Customer Service"

December 3, 2020

5.0

Pros

Spectora is a one stop shop for all your inspection software needs. They were vital in helping me get my business up and running. Over the years if I had any questions or issues they always responded and helped resolve the issue quickly. Their customer service is amazing. The software itself is pretty great, but knowing there is someone there to walk you through any difficulties is priceless.

Cons

The only thing I would say is that the software itself has a bit of a learning curve. It took me a while to set it up and get it to be just the way I wanted it. I am not the best with computers though. Once you become more familiar with it and do have it set up the way you want it makes inspections a breeze. Out of all the others I tried, this did seem the most intuitive, easiest to navigate, and all my clients agree the reports look amazing.

### "Spectora Is Hands Down, The Best Home Inspection Software"

May 25, 2023

5.0

Spectora has been the best investment I have made as an inspector. I can run my entire business from this platform all while producing state of the art home inspection reports! I am continually blown away by the innovation these guys create. They take feedback from inspectors to continue to improve the software which is huge! The customer support is the best I've ever dealt with!!! You are hindering your business if you aren't using spectora!

Pros

1.Reports are super user friendly and modern looking. 2. I can run my entire business from Spectora, from scheduling to publishing the report

Cons

I do not have any complaints for this section.

### "Wonderful"

September 26, 2022

5.0

Overall it has been amazing.

Pros

All in one package. From initially building my website (& edits along the way), to making the inspection process easy, the automation and the payment collection. My business wouldn't be what it is had I went with another software/company.

Cons

The whole beta (Spectora X) thing seems poorly planned. I've kind of felt pressured to try out the new product while users in social media groups continue to complain about the newer version of software. I don't have the liberty to "give it a go". I am relatively new and only do a handful of inspections a week. I cannot risk messing up the few inspections per week that I have to "give it a go"

Reason for choosing Spectora

Polling social media groups and just a ton of research.

### "A Great Business Decision"

November 12, 2019

5.0

I am "new" to the home inspection world. I have been an educator for 30 years. Researching and discovering Spectora has been the biggest key to my business success. I thought I was getting a great inspection software. I got so much more!! Not only am I sold on the software, but the resources Spectora provides are amazing, online scheduling, automated emails and texts, online tutorials, a user friendly facebook group, shared templates, friendly customer service, website creation, educational and motivational podcast and more. I cannot say enough great things about Spectora - the software, and Spectora - the people that make it happen!!!

Pros

User Friendly Great Customer Service Automated Features to enhance and Streamline Business Online Tutorials Great Value for the Price Reports look Great

Cons

I do not have anything negative to say. We all would love a better price, but for the value I cannot complain.

### "Best Inspection Reporting software"

December 7, 2023

5.0

Spectora has cut my inspection writing time in half. The technology is just easy and amazing.

Pros

I love the automation and easy of scheduling inspections for my client. They simply click a link and schedule. Notification are sent out and tracked when reports and confirmation are made.

Cons

One thing I don't like is being charged to use the "Advanced" Features per inspection. I think it should be available to all users.

### "The Perfect Software"

April 10, 2021

4.0

This software has been a game changer for our business in the sense that finishing a report at the end of inspection saves us family time in the evenings. The reports are stunning and easy for clients to read and understand.

Pros

This software allows you to capture high quality photos and videos quickly and find relevant comments on the fly as you inspect the exterior and interior of a home. This software allows multiple inspectors to sync their information into one report. The finished report is very modern and interactive with Web links to documents and/or do-it-yourself repair videos.

Cons

Only negative is one glitch that causes the software to shut down and restart at least once per home inspection. The only data that is lost is a photograph that was being taken at the time of the restart. I'm confident that Spectora will figure out this issue and correct it because their customer service is top notch!

Reason for choosing Spectora

Homegage was difficult to navigate between screens and required too many clicks to get a comment selected and pictures inserted. Inspection software must be limited to 1 to 2 clicks to finish a comment.. Also, all possible options must fit onto the main screen to prevent time wasted going to different screens.

### "User friendly and imperative for business."

January 10, 2023

5.0

As a single man inspection company who averages 400+ inspections a year. Spectora allows me to easily schedule, send reports, receive payments, and remind all involved parties of the inspection information. There generated reports save a large amount of time and energy that allows me to continue to grow my business. Their customer service and response are a league above the competition, and the teams' continuous updates add much requested features and changes without over bloating the software.

Pros

Spectora allows me to easily schedule, process payments, communicate, and easily send all inspection reports on a daily basis.

Cons

No notable cons about the software to comment on.

Pros

The software is very easy to use, and I like the fact that my clients find it easy to understand.

Cons

I wish that the photo taking aspect of the software would move a little bit faster, but it also may be that I have too many reports on my phone.

### "Spectora has been a game changer"

February 23, 2021

5.0

Spectora has been one of the best business decisions I've made.

Pros

The Spectora software system has been an absolute game changer for me and my business. Not only with the software and its use for reporting and documenting on scene, but for its post report review and editing prior to publishing. The team they've developed to handle any problems that arise in the field or while generating the report have been absolutely fabulous. With that confidence in their group I also had them develop my website. Thank you Spectora and the Spectora Team.

Cons

I would like to see the ability to move from section to section in the field to be evaluated. My outside work in the field prior to entering the residence consists of bouncing around the template from various sections i.e. roof, exterior, foundation, electrical, plumbing, heating and air, etc.

### "Great Software!!"

June 26, 2020

5.0

They've been great, I've loved seeing new features roll out, they've refined their software continually to run smoother, it's been great.

Pros

I'm able to customize most everything, and my clients love the seamless and easy to read format of my inspection reports.

Cons

I take an excess amount of photos during home inspections as I consider them CYA photos, for example: Client calls to say there was a leak under their sink I didn't catch. So I pull up my additional photos showing under the sink with no leak whatsoever, and I can then limit liability. Spectora does not offer cloud service for additional photos to be attached to that inspection unless they are on the report for client viewing, but it would be great as I've had to invest in multiple storage solutions to backup and organize all these additional photos in event a situation arises, it also helps me to be more thorough as I take so many photos, while reviewing I have found things I did not see at the time, whether it be sun glare, or whatnot.

I'm overall satisfied with the product and will continue using it.

Pros

Easy to use. Clients and realitors love it.

Cons

It has some software issues that kicks me out of the report sometimes. It's also hard to get familiar with it if you don't have a trustworthy template.

### "Best Business Decision"

December 24, 2019

5.0

Awesome! Any issues have been immediately resolved. One less thing for our company to worry about.

Pros

Best business decision for my company. Everything about it is seamless, easy to train new inspectors, easy to modify template, great reports for clients and agents, excellent repair request builder. Bottom line, saves everyone time = significant cost savings.

Cons

My only regret is not switching to spectora sooner. I wish it could replace our need for ISN, but the advanced features are not quite ready yet.

### "Automation, Automation, and more Automation!"

July 24, 2021

5.0

We tested and researched a handful of platforms before choosing Spectora. Spectora by far was more forward thinking and had a better design than the rest. Customer service is 10 Stars out of 5.

Pros

Automation / Actions. Saves time, money, and sends out emails and text to clients. This has allowed us to up sell services, capture google reviews, and makes payroll easier for us.

Cons

Once in awhile the app will crash, but I believe this is due to my device memory being full since I use it for other things. All this should be better with the new app I hope.

Spectora is just a great product all the way around. It's leading edge, and I'm never not impressed.

Pros

This software is the backbone of my business. From front to back office.

Cons

Can be a little glitchy at times. Given how dynamic and complex the software is, I don't expect it to be perfect in every way - all the time. I also love how quickly support will recognize an issue and jump on it.
