It is an adequate software with some good and some bad features. Support was great when I started here 10 years ago, very personal and hands on. That is not necessarily the case now. Reporting has always been lacking in many areas, especially payroll and accounts payable. Even with option of pulling your own reports using queries, it's very difficult to determine where to find the relevant data and sometimes the relevant data isn't even part of the system.

Pros

It's adequate for basic job cost accounting. Menus are fairly easy to navigate and most data entry tasks are straightforward.

Cons

We consider Viewpoint Spectrum as our document storage repository as it has a good document imaging 'cabinet' system that is very customizable to fit our needs. However, recently the images have degraded substantially, to the point that some are unreadable, even when exported out of the software. Support has not been very helpful with this issue, basically stating that reports downloaded from the software have to be saved as 'flattened' images and then re-uploaded to Spectrum, which doesn't always correct the issue. Not the kind of answer we are looking for! Also, when what we believe to be simple enhancements are shot down because the original coding that the software is built on can't be updated, it's very disheartening. This should be a red flag to anyone thinking of starting with this software now.

Been working with Spectrum over 10 years. I love that they have kept up with the technology and the system is still comparable to other available solutions.

Pros

What I like most about Spectrum is the consistency across the system. Whether working in A/R, A/P, Payroll or Inventory the system is consistent and accessing the data is easily understandable.

Cons

The hosting environment. I'm old school and prefer to host our system in-house. Also, there is a standard report that pulls bad data.

Overall, Spectrum is a very good software. We just feel there are areas there could be improvement. Spectrum is vast and has so much potential.

Pros

I like the depth and detail of Spectrum. For example, most software does not separate jobs and work orders or at least to the extent of Spectrum and it keeps things so much more organized and efficient. I also handled lots of payables during my time using Spectrum, and I feel overall accounting wise it is very beneficial and makes invoicing easy and it's easy to see what we need to research in open payables. We've never had any security issues which is a plus and the format and design of Spectrum is very appealing while working.

Cons

One of our company's biggest grievances with Spectrum is that the customer support is not the greatest. Not sure if this is due to the volume of customer's or what, but there have been times where we are told we are the only customer to ever have an issue we've had and are not able to offer much insight. Another thing I don't particularly like is how expensive Spectrum is especially to add additional modules. When adding additional modules there isn't much help as far as set up as well. We usually have already completed or have the knowledge offer in training for new modules, but it's like the training never goes more in depth and we are left to figure the rest out AND we had to pay for the training for the expensive module we just purchased.

Overall I would definitely recommend Spectrum to other companies, the ease of use and speed is amazing!

Pros

I love the speed and the access that Spectrum offers. It is a system that offers ease and swiftness for all. I love the access that it gives to a PM - you can see everything down to the check # and date that was sent to a vendor or subcontractors, it will even tell you if their check has cleared.

Cons

Well the thing I like the least is the speed of their customer support, it isn't horrible but it just isn't as good as it used to be.

Pros

Spectrum is great once you get it set up how you use it most. The home screen windows and sidebar are all customizable with what you need to see the most and the reports you pull the most so you aren't wasting valuable time digging for them. It's great to project budget management, invoicing, and tracking payments.

Cons

Aesthetically, Spectrum is stuck in the 90s and sometimes I feel the very basic look can make it a bit hard to navigate because it doesn't use colors, fonts, or any sort of 'design' to draw your attention to important places/buttons.

Overall I like Spectrums ability to integrate with other software and ability to import or export data with the use of SDX and API.

Pros

Spectrum has grown in its ability to be integrated with other software to increase its functionality.

Cons

There are a lot of steps to complete a transaction. Also Spectrum user interface has not changed since Windows 95. There are lots of little items that are still there from its legacy days.

Very challenging to undo things. This can be a pro for a lot of people because you don't want anyone going back and making accidental changes, but when the time comes that you need to make a quick fix, it can be problematic.

Our experience with Spectrum has been great. The support is excellent. Help is always available in the way of courses and the knowledge center. We like that Trimble is always trying to improve the product so it functions as accurately as possible to drive sound business decisions.

Pros

We love the instant visibility that the software provides. We can run job cost or profitability reports quickly so we know how our projects are going. Being able to customize reports has been very beneficial as well.

Cons

It can be hard to customize reports if you don't know Crystal Reports. As analytics is built out I think that will make it easier to customize the data.

[Sage Accounting](https://www.capterra.com/p/168740/Sage-One-UK/)

It was only used by accounting with no visibility by our PM's. Unless accounting printed reports for them they could not see anything useful to track the progress of their projects.

Training was quick and we picked up on it very quick. Our trainer \[sensitive content hidden\] was wonderful, however it was very expensive which was an added cost I wasn't expecting.

Pros

Payroll has been helpful and useful to our company. We were able to bring this service in house to process ourselves. I like how Accounts payable prints the draw requests.

Cons

I wish credit cards and banks connected live to Spectrum as they do in Quickbooks. It seems like that is a great way to see all the money in real time that goes in and out.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users.
