### "Spectora Has Helped My Small Business"

November 17, 2023

5.0

I am pleased with the service has provided me and I recommend them to any inspector!

Pros

helps me in my inspections and what is most beneficial to me is how it is easy to navigate... Time is highly valued, and efficiency is of utmost importance.

Cons

Short length of videos... I upload multiple videos to YouTube to provide a client with a private video link per report, it would be more efficient and a big time saver to have the ability for longer video recording lengths within the app at the inspection.

### "If you're not using Spectora, you're behind "

October 26, 2021

5.0

Pros

While most reporting software needs supplemental apps or software, is a one-stop-shop. They are always improving and understand what it takes to lead the industry.

Cons

While there is no such thing as perfect software, I find little to complain about. With that being said, you can expect a few issues arise from time to time but notice they get address in a timely manner.

### "Client's Love This"

December 31, 2020

5.0

The software has made my transition into Home inspection very easy. I've only been home inspector for 2 years and most of my time is spent learning my craft. It made my climb to a successful business much easier not have to worry about the technology. Anytime I have a question spectator has been very quick to help me. if I had a friend starting a home inspection business I would tell them they absolutely need Spector's

Pros

It is fully customizable and very easy to follow. The reports that are generated are superior to many of my colleagues in the industry. Real estate agents and clients have been extremely happy.

Cons

Currently my only issue is that when you answer all the questions in a section you receive a check mark to let you know you've completed the section on some reports areas are intentionally left blank much like the wind mitigation report. If there are no hazards there's nothing for me to select. I've then do not get a green check mark. I wish there was an option for not applicable or no hazards.

### "Spectora review"

August 27, 2022

4.0

Great customer service. Anytime I’ve had a problem there was someone helping me almost instantly.

Pros

Clients are often surprised that I am the only inspector after booking through . I love that the Client can sign agreements, schedule, and pay online. Very nice set up. The tech support right at your fingertips is fantastic!

Cons

It would be nice if the narratives all had links to more information. I don’t think the average Client is going to dive that deep but it would be a nice feature for those who did.

### "Spectora Review"

September 10, 2019

5.0

Other systems that we have used to create reports has involved completing the inspection and then spending significant time in the office completing the report prior to sending to the client. has allowed us to create professional inspection reports with minimal input from the office, the way we now operate is the inspector completes the entire report onsite and then the office staff simply proof the report prior to sending to the client. This has allowed us to grow our business with our existing staff base as it has freed up so much time for our admin staff.

Pros

The functionality and ease of use as well as the professional and easy to read completed reports.

Cons

We are an Australian based business and the location tools don't always work correctly. A minor complaint.

Reason for choosing Spectora

had customisable template styles which allowed us to create a template for our reports which were similar to what we were previously using whilst being much more streamlined and 'clean'

### "Great Software"

November 18, 2020

5.0

Overall it's good. The product is unmatched and ultimately I use it because it puts my company in the best position possible because its the best report possible. I have had some issues in using it but nothing is perfect

Pros

Media focused, helps client prioritize information, allows you to say everything you want without looking too overwhelming, well organized, easy to use, efficient, customizable....Best option available

Cons

There have been problems with it "going down" which render it unusable for the time. I have had a small problem and the follow up has been terrible. I have looped in ownership multiple times and nobody cares which is a bit alarming to me

### "Spectora Inspection Software Review"

November 4, 2022

5.0

Overall, I am satisfied

Pros

Once getting aclimated to it after using my previous software for nearly 5 years, I really enjoy it, and like utilizing it in my inspection protocol.

Cons

no spell correct, or suggestions on spelling like Microsoft Word has. I am very prolific in the English language and grammar, but having that feature would be paramount!

Reason for choosing Spectora

Seemed to be the best fit at the time, and I had to make a decision quite rapidly. When I trained to become an inspector, the company I was with used Homegauge, and I did not like the way it was integrated.

### "Best Reporting Software"

October 26, 2022

5.0

I am a new(er) inspector and I have never tried another reporting software and I never will. That's how satisfied I am with the product.

Pros

is an amazing home inspection report software and clients and real estates love the reports. I love how I can run my whole business using Spectora Advanced as well. Spectora's customer service is top notch as well.

Cons

I am really having a hard time coming up with something that I do not like about the software. There have been a few things here and there, but the team at is great about listening to their customers and making the necessary changes when needed.

### "The Wise Choice!"

March 31, 2021

5.0

I selected after looking at and trying out various software offerings. I didn’t even use all my trial inspections before I knew it was the right and only choice for me. It made sense based on its neat and clean look and forward thinking and cutting edge mentality of always advancing.

Pros

The ease of customization and ability to continually tweak templates. The clean and neat look that makes it easy for clients and realtors to navigate and understand. The support if needed is phenomenal. is a one stop shop software.

Cons

Occasionally there are freezes or hiccups that slow down an inspection.

Reason for choosing Spectora

Easy choice! It’s intuitive approach. I love the tube videos on various topics and the help/support videos. I had heard the support was great and I haven’t been disappointed.

### "Quality Software for Home Inspectors"

November 7, 2020

5.0

saves me time on doing back office work and has eliminated my need for many other third party services, like invoicing and payment collection. Their library of articles and responsive customer service consistently provides thoughtful and thorough solutions.

Pros

provides the ability to create flexible templates that make conducting a inspection and publishing the report efficient. The additional features make Spectora a complete package for scheduling, billing, and analyzing business activity.

Cons

I would love to see a way to track mileage and expenses, so I could eliminate Quickbooks accounting software. is very close to being the only software that I need for all of my business processes.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Spectora

February 25, 2022

This has catapulted me to the front of the pack in my small area.

Pros

It makes my business efficient. I like the step through process and ease of report writing. The community is by far the best I've been assosciated with.

Cons

some outage problems in the short time I've used it. On the fence with stripe and it's fees.

### "Awesome"

August 23, 2019

5.0

Pros

Everything about is awesome. It has made my life so much simpler since I implemented it about 2 years ago along with having them host and create my website. I often get compliments on how nice the website looks and how easy it is a setup an inspection and pay for it online. The customer service is second to none.

Cons

Payment processing fee, but it is the same anywhere. I hope they get enough of a base to make a deal that would get it to 1.5%.

Reason for choosing Spectora

Because it handles a lot of functions for me automatically, which makes my life easier. Online scheduling, Pre-inspection emails, reminders, post inspection emails, payment processing, and of course the excellent report writing function.

### "Great Inspection Software!"

July 19, 2022

4.0

Not a perfect software, but a really great software. had helped me speed up report writing and preparing for the upcoming inspections. Customer service has been excellent. Theyre quick to respond and the issues have been resolved with ease. I highly recommend inspectors try Spectora!

Pros

Easy to use, customizable, syncs with google calendar. Nice and clear reports.

Cons

Maybe making the summary pdf easier to find for the client/agent

### "Expensive but worth it"

January 21, 2021

5.0

Pros

It is very easy to use and the reports look very professional and easy to read for our clients and agents. I love the integration options as well!

Cons

It is quite costly. Also, if you want advanced metrics, you have to pay even more. I did the free trial for advanced metric and decided not to stick with it because I felt the data provided didn’t really make it advanced.

### "Great Program and Worth the Money"

May 4, 2024

5.0

Pros

One stop shop for all of my home inspection business needs. The ease of automation to include texts and emails, updating the calendar, end of year stats for tax purposes, editing the reports to make them easier for your needs, the list goes on.

Cons

Saving and syncing from a mobile device seems to have some issues every now and then but the majority of the info is still transferred so I make it work. The cost is a bit higher than some of the other programs but when you weigh your options and look at what you are getting out of the deal, its a no brainer.

June 10, 2022

Love the program, but the functions that don't work and should are costing me clients

Pros

What does work is great, what doesn't is costing me money. easy to set up and highly customizable

Cons

The support has been terrible. they are not available when they say they are, and so far the actual "help" has been not helpful. Its so bad at this point I am loosing customers and considering switching software

### "Try It!"

August 24, 2022

5.0

Pros

Ease of navigation, visually pleasing, easy to present, & you can customize almost everything.

Cons

The template to start, even the shared ones, doesn't provide enough base information and it takes some time to build. Again, it's not hard. Only time-consuming. I can say that it does help you get a good and familiar with your template ;-)

Reason for choosing Spectora

Ease of navigation, scheduling included, can attach videos, no need to buy additional software to digitally sign documents, and customization. All of the content on youtube helped me tailor the product and make it work for me. Thank you!!!

### "Brandon Barr Review"

November 9, 2020

5.0

The support is great - questions are answered in a timely fashion.

Pros

I like how easy it is to use. My wife helps me and I have trained her to use it as well. The expense of the program is minimal and the end result is a product that the consumer is able to utilize and make an educated decision on whether or not to purchase the house. At first some of the older agents were not used to reading the report, but after coaching and guiding it's been a huge success. I also like being able to lock the report until payment is received.

Cons

The only thing I wish we could change is figuring out how to checkmark the R for recommendation rather than having to go back and check it throughout the report.

Reason for choosing Spectora

It's the only one we have ever used.

### "Great software, easy to navigate"

July 21, 2020

As a startup, I know no other inspectors in my area. This platform maximizes my reporting ability. I am quick in the field and am very thorough while using as a means to provide clear and precise reports. I use the software to validate my findings and illustrate them to my client. There is no worry about losing web connection while on-site.

Pros

I can customize my reports borrowing from trusted templates. The staff is oriented to the inspector and they understand and meet our challenges.

Cons

Not much here... I honestly cannot state anything that I am not pleased with. The staff is obviously concerned with my success and they are ready to assist.

March 11, 2023

5.0

Did not care for it at first and now ( slow learner) I really like it. The inspection will take longer - specially if home is in rough shape but less time at home editing.

Pros

Being able to do the inspection with a phone is a huge step forward.

Cons

Scrolling. I guess there is no solution for that but you will definitely want to invest in a good mouse to review report on synced to computer.

### "Great software and service"

October 18, 2020

5.0

Perfect - It has been a pleasure to use and deal with the organisation.

Pros

The software is so easy to use, adaptable, and fast. It is designed in a way it is perfect for a single operator, to multi-inspector company, which I have worked my way through - without having to focus on the software. That is what you want, software to assist, not distract. Would recommend to anyone. The support I have received is the best I have experienced. They have felt like a part of my own team, and always responsive. They continue to listen to their customer's needs and desires and continue to develop the software.

Cons

I would have to try to find some. Of course, there has been a hiccup or two but always been addressed. Who in business has not had? There are desires I have, but this is not custom software.

Reason for choosing Spectora

had more features and flexibility
