We are currently going through the setup process Pros How it combines multiple sources of information and combines them into a easier way to track close to accurate job cost. Cons Setup time is lengthy. Review Source BH Billie H. Used the software for: ### "" May 22, 2012 4.0 We are a small Subcontractor in the Commercial Construction Industry. I have worked for this company for 7 years. FOUNDATION is the third accounting software this company has used since I started working here. It is by far my favorite. I have found it to be very user friendly. Whenever I have needed help, customer support has always responded quickly and very effectively. I highly recommend FOUNDATION for Windows to everyone who needs to keep track of the finances and job cost reporting in the construction industry.

Office Manager Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "New Foundation user - loving it so far" August 19, 2016 4.0 Pros We have just started using Foundation and so far I am extremely impressed with their implementation and training staff. They've been fast, friendly and accommodating to all my needs and questions. This product will help our company move to the next level because it will allow us to easily track where our expenses, costs and profits are going. The only reason my rating isn't higher is because I haven't used it long enough to give it a better rating. Cons we haven't used this product long enough to have found anything we don't like. It is simple to understand and easy to use. Review Source RD Ray D. Used the software for: ### "" November 28, 2011 5.0 While not a user of the software, my insights into the management of the Company, and their product, allow me to say that my favorite aspect of Foundation Software is actually the people who created it. That's not to take anything away from its wonderful features or its ease of use but, rather to point out that a team that takes ethics and fiscal integrity very seriously created it. That is the right mindset to have for developing this software! Review Source BK Bridget K. Accountant Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Foundation delivers! " June 30, 2016 5.0 Pros Love how they laid out a step by step plan of the entire process from installation to training to going live. Really liked that they could upload customers, vendors and chart of accounts. In the past, that was done manually. Training sessions were great. Louise explained everything so well, made it very easy to follow and understand. The entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Its a very upbeat company. Looking forward to a very long relationship with all of them. Cons More short cuts please. Too much tab tab tab or mouse use. Review Source JJ John J. Used the software for: ### "" July 24, 2013 5.0 We are a concrete contruction company and had outgrown our previous off-the-shelf software. It was not robust enough to provide the job accounting information we needed. We had looked at a few different vendors and found that Foundation met our needs at a reasonable cost. We have been using it since 2001. We appreciate the quick responce we get from support, when we need it. We would highly recommend Foundation Software. Review Source JN Jackie N.

Construction Used the software for: ### "Two months in" December 16, 2014 4.0 Pros Month to month pricing allows you to test the software, without spending a lot. The payroll corrections and options for information are great. Cons I dislike the inability to have "sub jobs" (cannot print CPR by phase/site). I cannot track labor to change orders.
