President Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ComputerEase - Accounting and Project Management" October 19, 2024 5.0 I've been working with ComputerEase for 18 years and it gets better with time. The software is solid and customer support and resources are great. The software has moved from a server only based system to offering for server based or web-based usage and have added app-based options for field reporting, payroll and expense management. Pros I love ComputerEase for construction-based companies or companies with project-based costing. It provides both structure in reporting and accounting and the flexibility for each individual company to set up the cost system and reporting for the specific needs of their business. General contractors will love the Subcontract module which allows you to link sub change orders to an owner change. It also allows you to limit billings and payments on a subcontract. Subcontractors will love the labor module and unit based costing reports that are available. Cons Sometimes you have to get support involved to help building custom reports that you need - the good news is that support is very responsive.

I provide fractional Controller/CFO services for growing companies and believe that the software a contractor selects is as important as the tools they use to get the job done. ComputerEase is a great option for growing companies moving from QBO and will continue to support their growth for a long time.

Director of Operations Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Satisfies Our Current Needs and Keeps Getting Better" September 26, 2024 4.0 It appears that there are continuous enhancements and improvements being made to the product both in new functionality and useability. Overall I am very happy with the product and my ability to make it work for our needs. Pros The application allows one to start using for the most basic functions easily and then continuously build out more complexity as needed. This is great for ease of implementation without needing to understand all of the functionality available prior to getting up and going. Cons The Q-Tools reporting tool should allow greater flexibility in customizing reports and provide the ability to map tables and create reports in addition to those that exist currently. Enhancements to allow more custom importing of data should also be available. Contacting ComputerEase support for any "custom" needs is very expensive and time consuming for even the most simple request. Adding new modules requires a minimum purchase of training that I often find unnecessary and would rather not be forced to pay for allowing me more budget to spend on additional needs.

Pros The dashboard. From engineers, to different accounting teams, it is easy for everyone to get the information they need. Cons Not a big fan of the Service Management module.

Service Titan is more than we need. Review Source TK Tim K. CFO Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ohio Valley Electric" September 26, 2024 4.0 Overall very happy with CE. Each year we continue to find more and more uses for the software and the add-ons. Pros Payroll Integration and its focus on Contractors (Generals and Subs). Cons Our IT dislikes that it runs on Citrix. The visuals are a little antiquated but it gets the point across. Alternatives considered [FOUNDATION](https://www.capterra.com/p/2032/FOUNDATION/) Reason for choosing ComputerEase We liked that CE was locally based in Cincinnati, OH which is where we are.

President Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Computerease Great Construction Accounting program" September 27, 2024 5.0 We have owned Computerease since we started business in 2006 with 3 employees. It has grown and continues to suit our needs and we are now a $170M company with 700 employees, almost 19 years in. Pros Ease of use. It's a great product that does everything we need, without being too complicated. Cons It needs open API to work with other programs. Or be cloud based, not just a program on a Citrix server. Alternatives considered [QuickBooks Desktop](https://www.capterra.com/p/212058/QuickBooks-Desktop-Pro/) Reason for choosing ComputerEase Great product, ease of use, price mid point compared to others. there were others but they've all changed names now.

August 27, 2024 5.0 I've been a customer for 15 years while our company has grown from 10 users/ $20M in revenue to 75 users and $100M in revenue and it still works great for us Pros Budget friendly, customizable, user friendly and responsive staff Cons Although it is customizable I do wish I could have more customization such as safeguards and approval processes for over budget items Switched from [Sage Construction Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/154874/Sage-Construction-Suite/) Timberline/ Sage wasn't user friendly enough Review Source JR Jessica R.

It was also easy to setup on any and all of my devices.

Used the software for: ### "" October 31, 2012 4.0 Wow. When I last posted about using ComputerEase, we were lost. Our support team was non existent. I got a call from the Corporate office that quickly set us up with a new support group. They got us on the right track, helped us with issues we were having in payroll, mainly certified payroll settings. As anyone that has to complete certified payroll reports knows, they can be a nightmare. We are on the right track now. Corporate has been a lifesaver. We can email, call and they have an answer to our questions.. As with any new program, you need a great support team to help you with the transition from one program to another. We still have some things to work out, but with our new support team it will be completed correctly. Thank you Peggy and Lesley. And all that have helped with correctly setting up Computerease. \*\*UPDATE\*\* We are a Georgia based utility contractor. Our company has been using Computerease since 2008. Previously we wer using QuickBooks Pro for Construction. . The program was purchased prior to the current office staff that is now in place. They used it for a few months, then went back to QuickBooks. When the new staff took over in May 2007, the decision was made to use Computerease starting the beginning of 2008. I have to say, I do not find the program user friendly. It does not seem that one module talks to the other. The updates other than federal tax updates, really don't apply to Georgia. The appear to be more geared to the northern states. We make suggestions to our "Suppor team", and I use that word for the lack of another term , but nothing is ever done. Especially the accounting and payroll portion. We work on federally funded projects that require certified payroll reports. Each job, pay rates and fringes are different. We ask about setting up the union portion of the payroll to ensure payrates and fringes were correct. We were told not to use that section. If an employee works on a certified payroll jobsite and one that is not, the fringe is split between the two jobs so it appears on the report that we are not paying the correct fringe. We have to send copies of employee paychecks with the reports to show that the correct fringe was paid. Sorry, but, I am not only dissappointed with the product, but our support is basically non-existent. We call support and sometimes they call back. We called yesterday for example, and as of 3:52 this afternoon, have not received a return call. I emailed them twice last week, and although the messages were received and read, we never hear from support. Review Source KF Kellie F. Construction Used the software for: ### "A step up from QuickBooks" January 6, 2015 4.0 Pros Hands down, the support is what I like best. They respond almost immediately and are very friendly. I also appreciate that the company is small enough that they accept recommendations for improvements and sometimes you see implementation as quickly as the next update. I feel it's an easy program to navigate and learn - far more so than some of the competitors I reviewed. However, some of my less technologically experienced co-workers have found it challenging. Honestly, I think that's a reflection of their limited exposure, not the program. I like (and sometimes dislike) that it is far more secure than QB - people can't change posted transactions willy-nilly! The password maintenance is excellent and people only see what they have access to. Sometimes it's tricky because you think you're giving permissions to do something but you haven't checked another box that prevents it but, all-in-all, it's slick. The job costing feature is far superior to QB - no comparison. We haven't completed implementation of the Service Management module and are not using FieldEase to the full extent possible but I'm looking forward to exploring the possibilities. Being able to import time from the field has been a huge time-saver. The field employees grumbled at first and still do sometimes but not only has it saved time, it's improved accuracy. No more trying to decipher chicken scratch! Cons The reporting is not as robust as QuickBooks, and I really miss the ability to create just about any report imaginable. I also don't like that you sometimes have to go to multiple screens to get all the information related to a single transaction. Unlike QuickBooks, you can't drill down in every report - only certain ones have links. Some reports that you think should be standard are not and some cannot even be created without paying extra. If I could change one thing, the ability to drill down and customize reports like QuickBooks would be it. Review Source Michael P. President Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Computer not so ease.." May 8, 2020 3.0 Program is not well known, but if you use all the available features it is acceptable. Pros Program is very detailed, but once you learn it, it is very user friendly. There are a lot of benefits we do not utilize. Cons Work in progress! - you can not hit one button and get a report. You have to force feed information into it before you can get a report. You also can not send a report directly from the program. Reason for choosing ComputerEase N/A Review Source MB Mark B. Vice President / General Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Overall, very pleased to be using CE as our accounting software solution." January 17, 2018 4.0 I had researched and implemented CE many years ago, when I was working in the commercial construction industry. When my current company (an industrial construction company) had the opportunity to use a different accounting solution, I recommended CE. I was very glad we made the switch and the recommendation was taken. Pros Very intuitive interface. Workflows are great for frequent operations. Good module interface between modules. Relatively easy to train others to use. Cons Some inflexibility when comes to the equipment module. Does not let us easily input our equipment use the way we use equipment. Would like equipment functionality in FieldEase. Review Source Response from Deltek September 5, 2018 Hi Mark, we are incredibly grateful that you took the time out to leave us this note. To hear that you recommended ComputerEase to your new company from the researched you did years ago speaks volume. Please reach out to us with any suggestions or questions you may have. Thanks again, Donna, ComputerEase Representative BG Beverly G. Vice President, Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer Utilities Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent Product, More than excellent support, excellent accountability and tracking." September 26, 2017 5.0 Pros The "transparency" of the data; the ability to have "drill-down" reports for the data displayed. Great "paper trails" to help analyze and understand just exactly where the data came from that is used in the reports. There are no limits to this software. The only limits on this product will be from the end user, not the product. Also, if you require a custom report the good people at ComputerEase can create it for you. ComputerEase support is unequaled; it is provided with a simple phone call or through the software itself with a direct link to their Customer Corner where you can go online and research yourself or request support. Cons I have been using this product since 2008; I do not have any "cons". As I've stated above the only limit will be on the inability of the user to know what they want and why/how to get it. Review Source Response from Deltek September 5, 2018 Hi Beverly, thank you for taking the time out of your day to leave us such a positive review and for being a long-time user of ComputerEase. Most people don't bother to leave reviews about positive experiences unincentivized, and that's what makes us truly grateful. It’s customers like you that make our day! We will strive to deliver great experiences consistently. Let us know if there is anyone else that would benefit from using ComputerEase. Thank you again, Donna, ComputerEase Representative ER Elizabeth R. Project Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Does the basics, but is clunky to use and has terrible presentation." September 14, 2017 2.0 It seemed to have worked well for our company when we were a small GC, but now that we have grown to +$100M annually with multiple offices, it is struggling to meet the needs of the project managers. Pros Does the basics of what a small construction company would need. Is flexible in certain ways, like setting up job cost codes. Prints to AIA billing forms. Cons Costumer support is terrible. Templates are sloppy and unprofessional and clunky to use, so all need to be recreated by the company using them. Answer to one of my questions about generation of a purchase agreement was "there is a glitch in the system that requires text in a form field to generate the document" The text in that form field does not carry through to the PA itself... so we just need to type "x" and it will work. Report read outs look like they are from the 1980's. Review Source TB Thomas B. President Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very mature software product!" March 9, 2017 5.0 We have been on this system for about 7 years or more now and are VERY happy with it. Pros This is TRULY a fully integrated product that combines Project Management, Submittals, Accounting and Change Orders. Very user friendly with a very well thought out Graphical User Interface. My wife and I are both Engineers with my wife being a Master Degreed Software Engineer. We studied many products and settled on Computerease. We are extremely happy with our decision and I believe the product is very scaleable and will meet all of our demands as our company grows. Cons Scheduling tool is weak. We just use MS Project instead. The product does offer a scheduling module but it is not robust. Also, certain fields are limited to 10 characters which is very cumbersome when naming job names and customer names. Review Source JC Jill C. Controller Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One system does everything!" April 17, 2018 5.0 Pros How the accounting and project management systems integrate with each other is key. Love the payroll system. This is my first time using it and it is awesome. The subcontract module is a great tool and very easy to use. Overall, it is good program for GC's. Cons No direct export to Excel. Qtools is mediocre at best. It is so cumbersome to use. I have used CE for close to 10 years now. I've recently completed my third system implementation from Quickbooks. Onsite training is so much better than online but entirely too pricey. With regards to training sessions, the amount of time it takes to get one scheduled is way too long. I also feel that at the end of the session, one should be able to accomplish what they were being trained to do. Review Source DH Dennis H. CFO Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Straightforward" October 12, 2017 5.0 Pros the product is windows based and is easy to navigate around in. The price is very reasonable. The product design allows for flexibility when customizing it around ones organization. Cons While easily navigable and flexible, there are some advanced project management functions that computerEase doesn't easily allow, if at all. Review Source Response from Deltek September 5, 2018 Hi Dennis, thank you for giving us your honest opinion about ComputerEase. Since we are a small company, most of our customers are referred to us by our existing customers. Since the construction industry can be so diverse it great to hear from you that ComputerEase allows for flexibility. We hope that you continue to remain a loyal customer with us here at ComputerEase and if you every have any questions or suggestions please do not hesitate to reach out.

At the time, I was in the construction field, and used CE for CRM functions, sales reporting, financials, and some project management reporting. I worked for Redrock Security and Cabling and reported directly to ownership. My role incorporated sales management and marketing functions. Pros For project management and some accounting functions, CE is very useful. It was easy to track project expenditures, progress to completion, etc. Cons As a CRM tool, CE is not a robust enough solution to meet most users' needs. Even in a construction environment, some more meaningful reporting and analytics would have been helpful, as well as more seamless integration with other systems we had in place such as RingCentral, MailChimp, etc. We had to find work arounds and manual solutions for processes for things other solutions can accomplish routinely. Review Source RH Ryan H. Used the software for: ### "" September 5, 2012 4.5 We are a roofing contractor providing roof replacement and repair services, siding, gutter, masonry, chimney restoration, metal fabrication, windows, doors, and OTC supply sales. We serve both residential and commercial customers. Prior to using ComputerEase, we utilized three separate programs to operate our business: QuickBooks for our accounting, a custom software program called ScanTerm for our job processing, job costing, inventory, and an outside payroll service provider. With these three programs there was a lot of double entry and redundancies occurring so we decided to make a change, which is not an easy thing to do. ComputerEase was selected when the other programs we looked at seemed to be good but just weren't the right fit for us. We installed ComputerEase in March of 2012 and went live on July 1st 2012. We had four months of training and practicing with the software which helped a lot. ComputerEase is pretty comprehensive and there's a lot to learn. The program is very easy to navigate but it takes sometime until you know where certain things are under each menu. ComputerEase really does all your accounting for you as you process your daily work. The downfall is that we found ourselves entering more info or taking more steps then we were use to in our old system because the accounting system was not integrated. It created a little extra work for us, but it will eventually help save us on CPA fees. Having everything integrated is the key for us. It really helps us get a better picture of our business overall instead of waiting until the end of the year to see how we did. We have a pretty unique business here but ComputerEase seems to be able to handle it all for us. One thing I will say is that their support and training is outstanding. All training is done over the web, at a time that's convenient for you. Also if you have any questions you can email or call your support person and they make it a point to get back to you as soon as they can. Review Source KH Krystal H. Dispatcher Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not a Relational Database" June 16, 2017 2.0 Pros ComputerEase seems to be one of the less expensive software options out there while still offering many optional features. There are multiple pre-built reports to see profitability, etc. We have not had any system "crashes". Cons ComputerEase is not a relational database - which if you are used to a relation database, the process of looking up or entering information will require more steps. The service module is a bit weak despite an upgrade in Spring 2017 (dispatch board lacking features, unable to easily view a work ticket once it has been completed, not easy to link to AP, time keeping app unable to view submitted entries without additionally logging into the online portal). The customer technical support is handled by a third party company that is divided into regions. The regional team supporting us seems short staffed at times. Review Source DR Donna R.

These companies include HVAC, sheet metal fabrication, plumbing and tilt-wall concrete construction companies among other enterprises. We had been using a UNIX/DOS operating system for accounting and job costing for many years. This system was labor intensive, and very limited in functionality. I had used ComputerEase a few years earlier, when I worked for an electrical contractor. So one day, when I could no longer tolerate this backward UNIX system, I called ComputerEase to see if it would be a good fit for Randall. They put me through to John Meibers, the President of ComputerEase. John began giving demonstrations to our key personnel in each division of our operation - A/P, A/R, payroll, purchasing, etc. He answered every question and showed us that ComputerEase could handle every aspect of our businesses, better and more efficiently than the old system. When the Owner saw that we could have a far better system for the same price as we pay for our old system, there was no reason to say no. We went live on July 1, 2012 and every person that works in the system has expressed appreciation for ComputerEase. Everyone has been impressed with the new system and how much more they can get out of the system. With the old system, we felt like we were working for the system. Now the system works for us. The people at ComputerEase are all so helpful and great to work with, especially Maribel Scarnecchia, our Trainer. Her endless patience has been instrumental in our transition to ComputerEase. Maribel guided us every step of the way with moving open A/P and A/R and payroll, etc. which resulted in a smooth transition. I have worked with several accounting/job costing systems in the past. ComputerEase is by far the most user-friendly, construction-based, intuitive, complete software I've ever used. We look forward to a long and happy working relationship with ComputerEase.

Pros Job set up, tracking, tax reports, AP & AR systems ease of use, GL accounting system, contract/subcontract/p.o. templates and ease of payroll. Cons Lacking the HRIS component - Had to purchase a separate HRIS (Human Resource Information System) through BambooHR that our employees could log into to track their time off, for benefit enrollment and tracking and for supervisors/foreman to perform performance evaluations and post job openings.

Pros I like the search features, the maintenance features and all the reports that are available. I also enjoy the customer support that is available. Cons I think it is too industry specific, and the accounting features could be more user friendly. Also a feature allowing the reprint of a paystub on plain paper would be handy Review Source Response from Deltek September 5, 2018 Hi Randy, thanks for taking the time to share your opinion on the maintenance features and reports in ComputerEase, as well as, our customer support. We take pride in giving outstanding customer service to every customer and we're overjoyed to receive your compliments. Our hope it to show our customers how important they are to us.

I will just love to know more about how to make use of the subcontractor. Review Source MG Martha G. Executive Assistant Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple and Affordable" March 6, 2017 5.0 Pros The ease of the process from purchasing to setup to use. This software offers a solution to having all your information in one place. From HR to Accounting this is the easiest way to keep track of your business. The variety of reports allows you to produce information to meet preferred formats for coworkers. Customer support responds in a timely, courteous fashion and always works with you to resolve any issues or suggestions to assist your company to be the best it can be. The continual updates to the software insure that your information remains current for the industry to allow you to focus on growing your business. Call and talk to someone about how ComputerEase can make things simple for you, you will not be disappointed. Cons The only thing I can say is a "con" to this software was getting the Project Managers to stop using multiple programs and start using ComputerEase. Once they saw how easy it was to use and the information that was available to them, they were on board with the software.
