Inforamtion Management System Analyst Civil Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good system build for the propose " March 3, 2025 5.0 My experience with FV been great most of the time, however, the system sometimes take time to reload and that make people wonder and sometimes unhappy Pros the system is user friendly, the browser version is straight forwarded and easy to find what you are looking for. Cons Take long in reload, you can not recover deselected question inside the forms, you cannot delete users from the business unit only de-activate them. The tablet version is not straight forwarded to find the location and processes, Review Source AS Alyx S. Owner Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simple, Versitile!" February 22, 2025 5.0 Pros Integrationally easy, very versatile tool my team is about to use. Cons N/A. Haven’t had too many complaints about it! Review Source ZV Ziggy V. Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "PC compatible " January 11, 2024 3.0 I think Field View Relies to heavily on battery and Internet. Field View desperately needs full functionality on PC. Pros Less paperwork. Easily accessible for all parties Cons Field view, full functionality can only be using in tablet form. Not all documentation in construction across all parties use field view meaning alot of information required for our field view documents is on the PC making the process long winded and tedious as the tablet needs to be connected to the PC allow for transfers. If field view had full functionality on PC it would make the hole experience a lot smoother. Also having the ability to print a blank document from Field View would be beneficial. Over the year we've had a couple of experience where the tablet has run out of juice during a safe start. And a couple of times where the Internet in the area is not good or has gone down, this will not allow Field View to open as the tablet requires a sync before opening. Again not good during a safe start or during a QA check with the client. Review Source CT Conrad T. Applications Specialist Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Quality and Health and Safety records at the touch of a finger while out of the office" January 11, 2022 5.0 As a tool is has the features we need to manage the critical quality and safety information to deliver a project. Pros The ability to work with the application in blind spots offline and sync when a connection is available suing any of the mobile devices we have at our disposal. Cons Getting Subcontractors to buy into using it. Review Source LM Lindsay M. Project Engineer Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Functional but needs improvement " January 5, 2024 4.0 Our company implemented field view for Punchlist and Quality Management first. From there it was expanded to forms like time and material sheets for subcontractors. We also used it as a notification / request system to the project owner in some instances. We took several forms required by the owner and digitized them in FieldView to create more automated processes. Overall we have found that the system has some of the features we need but simply not enough ability to be customized completely. Pros Punchlists, forms with workflows, integrated photos Cons Customization of tasks and forms were limited and challenging to figure out. Notification settings can’t be modified -I.e sends at 2am only 1x Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View We chose Field View because it was software we were already using (ViewPoint) and we were looking for process improvements. Review Source CT Calum T. Business Services Manager Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "FieldView System Review" February 14, 2024 3.0 Overall our experience with fieldview has been positive. Pros We like the ease of use of the forms on the fieldview app, and how customisable inspection report outputs are. Cons It can be quite clunky and slow to set up projects from an admin perspective. Review Source AB Alexander B. Electrical Engineer Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Slaters Electricals Review" May 16, 2024 4.0 field view meets our requirements of having a software to capture data and produce good quality reports. Pros The reports. They're clear, concise and exactly what we need to deliver to clients. Cons Still need to use old field view for a lot of functions, but it can be painfully slow. Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View It met our needs of capturing data and producing reports. Other products could not produce many form types required. Field view form types are flexible. Review Source SB Sarah B. Finance Director Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Returned customer" February 16, 2024 5.0 Pros We have used Fieldview for over 5 years in the industry, noticing more and more taking on this software. It is easy to use alongside other users, sharing fields and forms. It's user friendly for workers out on the field. Cons not able to remove users that appear on the distribution list when allocated to the project at any capacity, creating a long list to go through each time. Review Source JJ Jake J. QA manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "outstanding product " January 10, 2024 5.0 very good, customer service from all departments is to a high standard. all products are very good in the construction game everyone uses them daily and it makes our work/job easier Pros i like the high level of customer service we get if something needs sorting or we need help. the constant development of the products with all the updates and releases making all the small changes that make huge different Cons when im working fast on ipad it crashes sometimes Review Source WHT Wei Hong T. BIM Engineer Civil Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Construction software solutions" January 5, 2024 5.0 Pros mobile functionality, enabling on-site data capture and real-time collaboration Cons While customization is a strength, complex configurations might be challenging for some users Review Source ND Nikisha D. document controller Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Galostar " February 18, 2022 4.0 It works for us as a business Pros Helpdesk is very helpful Training is very informative Cons It was very difficult to understand initially. Also the fact there are two versions old and new. Its also the fact that you cant get the same views on tablets as on a PC. Review Source kC kate C. Commercial Admin Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "review review" January 12, 2024 3.0 Pros the variety of functions available to use from accounting to construction management. Cons the short description fields and not being able to use more characters when describing items Review Source VK Vivian K. Technical manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "quality management tool" November 24, 2022 4.0 works well to monitor project quality management Pros user friendly, collaborative tool. clear outputs. Cons no real cons that I can think of. works well. Review Source VT Vani T. President Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I think the field view of viewpoint makes it easier to do my job" February 26, 2026 5.0 It removes the possibility of workers being inaccurate due to using outdated drawings. No longer are we plagued with slow VPN speeds while trying to load our models into our system, that was a complete nightmare. Pros Having all my plans and specifications on hand is convenient, whether I’m at the office or in the field, because it allows me to access them instantly anywhere I go without carrying all the paper. Unfortunately the bus has been delayed and I’m famished, so this will be very short. It’s also a good thing that the office and the field now both see the same information in a way that is pleasing and good. Cons The Tool seems like it was made by engineers, but not for those of us who actually do the work. The Field Tool takes too long to navigate and I do not like that there isn’t a method to delete a finished old project from your project list permanently. Why should I have to click three small dots to open the Timeline? That is a huge time waster. Review Source VK Val K. CEO and Co-Founder Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Keeping Your Site Organized While Making Sure the Details Don’t Slip Through The Cracks" December 2, 2025 5.0 It reduces the time I waste looking for information, since everything that I log in the field is instantly available to the rest of my team. All in all it keeps my docs clean, speeds up my workflow and makes my life a lot easier. Pros What I love most about Field View is how it allows me to have everything from site information, inspections and notes at my fingertips rather than sifting through emails or paper files. I use it all the time on my tablet as I walk around the job site, snapping photos, logging issues and checking tasks off as they’re complete. Cons The syncing can be quite slow if the connection isn't great and it can be frustrating and the pictures don’t always upload quickly and a slow load time can interrupt my flow when I am working to document things swiftly. Review Source AS Andrey S. Chief Executive Officer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Keeps most of the drawings loaded" December 17, 2025 4.0 Prevents the PM from calling me to ask about the daily log every 5 minutes. Allows us to sign contracts remotely, without returning to the office. The archive keeps track of the project history so that if we are sued, we will know what occurred. Bridges the gap between our remote field location and the rest of the company. Pros I am writing this on my mobile device using one hand as I wait for the concrete truck to arrive and will be brief. I was surprised by how long the offline version would allow me to keep running after losing internet service in the elevator shaft (usually software crashes at once). The fact that it allows me to view the drawings and specifications prevents me from looking like an idiot in front of the subcontractors. When I call them (rarely), they answer the phone. Cons Sync speed is slow. There are times where it just continues to spin, spinning, spinning, when I try to load a large drawing file and I do not have time for that. Review Source KD Kate D. Chief Operations Officer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I am able to run this application most of the time on the tablet" February 2, 2026 4.0 This allows us to have written justification for making a change of schedule and it covers my ass if things go sour. And all I have to do now is take photos or scan any handwritten field notes and as you can see, everything we need to know is right there on the glass. Pros This works well as a means to see what the other trades are working on from the tablet. Maybe the tags are fast enough to create so I am not spending the whole day staring at the screen. Today I showed a man how to use it within about 2 minutes. Cons When using a laptop track pad instead of a real mouse the lag is absolutely crushing. I have no idea how to print out a Gantt Chart with the actual tickets on it so why even try to print it. When printed out, it looks very poor on paper. I also cannot get the predecessor arrows to always point to the bottom of the ticket and at times it will appear like a mess of spider webs. Review Source MK Matt K. Project Solutions Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Viewpoint Field View Review" January 5, 2024 4.0 Overall our experiences were good. We were able to get more users involved in filling out and correcting issues and even doing forms on a regular basis. Pros Once you got past the setup the ease of use was simple. We had tons of buy in from subs and foremen on all jobs to use this product. Cons The admin side and getting users into the system was a major pain for deployment. Alternatives considered [Procore](https://www.capterra.com/p/56250/Procore/)[Oracle Primavera Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/145503/Oracle-Primavera/) Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View Cost wise it was the best out of the options, it was middle road compared to functionality, losing out to Procore due to the fact that Field View was packaged with Team because you weren't able to do all project management items inside one application. Switched from [Oracle Primavera Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/145503/Oracle-Primavera/) Latista (this is what it used to be) was bought out and the product was being discontinued. Review Source George L. IT Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It works as intended" January 5, 2024 4.0 Field View is one of those products that are hard to setup, and very solid there after. We've had minimal issues have the system was setup to our liking. Most issues were either user error and rare ones that were not we delt with quickly by support. The menu structure is something that could use some work. Pros The main reason we use Field View is that we intent to have it connected to our other Viewpoint products for easy syncing. Everything works as it's intended. Once everything has been setup, issues are rare and most can be resolved by tweaking form that were made by Operations. Cons The 2 biggest cons of this product are cost and it's not easy to setup. Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View The intent of intergration with other Viewpoint products. Switched from [FTQ360](https://www.capterra.com/p/105235/FTQ360/) It required a full time person to manage FTQ360, when that person left it took too much effort to have someone trained to take it over and the whole process fell apart by the time everything was figured out. Review Source RL Robert L. IT Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very Disappointed with very expensive product" February 10, 2022 2.0 Initially we thought this platform would be perfect for us, as our partners had been using it sucessfully- there was no trial period granted but we signed up for 3 years Unlimited user. Although it has helped with our 40 or so H&S forms and Checksheets, these could have been done with another Form designer that costs 100th of the monthly cost, with mobile and tablet support feeding into Sharepoint lists etc. It's very hard to justify staying with this system when there are much better competitor products such as SnagR. Pros The snagging feature is the only feature worth mentioning - however the ardous calibration process to define areas before this can be used is crazy. Other competitor products do not require this long drawn out very time consuming process. Forms are very basic and do not give functionality of other forms designers eg you cannot add an image! Cons Poor training, very poor drawn out support, very expensive system which underdelivers in pretty much all areas. Although functional to a degree, the interface is outdated, partially converted, developments and requests are sooo slow to action by Viewpoint including the progress report which stopped working for MONTHS! - Inconsistent butons eg Delet in one screen deletes whilst in another it merely de-selects but doesnt delete. Although fedback at the start its still the same 2 years later. If we leave the system in October we would have to download the data or pay for a viewing license- It's terrible. Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View As subcontractors to other partners using the product we were already using it - however we didn't then know that as main users the horrendous amount of admin and setup Calibrations etc that was needed by us to make it all work. Other products do not have to use calibrations. To set up Fieldview forms toook one of my IT staff literally months. To calibrate projects takes days - we;ve had to employ an extra person to do this task. Review Source JF Joe F. Design Delivery manager Civil Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fieldview Review" January 5, 2024 3.0 Very difficult to set-up, create forms etc, Assistance was sought few years ago and was offered at price to expensive to company. It now looks like company is moving to Synchro but it my not be too late to reign in if creation of forms for 'Quality Checks' could be mobilised. Pros Emails data, outputs and reports to Viewpoint - reducing admin around records Cons Horrific Set-up time and difficulty levels. Alternatives considered [SYNCHRO](https://www.capterra.com/p/35289/Synchro/) Reason for choosing Viewpoint Field View We did not - it is the opposite. We have had Fieldview for years and looks like moving to Synchro Review Source YM Younas M. Site Engineer Civil Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fieldview " January 18, 2024 4.0 Pros Really useful tool to help comply with all the requirements of clients and specifications. Once set up, it will help with all the snagging and tasks Cons You have to use Fieldview classic to edit or make some changes to the forms which isn't set out the best way and can be confusing.
