Spectrum Reviews & Product Details

I think the best thing I like about Spectrum would be the speed and the ease of use. Spectrum is the fastest system I have used, I no longer need to sit and wait for reports it is definitely a time saver. To add to this point, Spectrum is constantly getting better and better, they always strive to upgrade their system to be improved regularly. I also love the training and support they have. The Viewpoint Academy always has new things for you to learn and gain more knowledge of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is really very little I dislike about it. If I had to say something I guess I would say the AR process when having to revise invoices, you can't revise invoices at all really, you need to reverse the original draw which then creates a credit memo you need to apply to the original invoice and then just start over with the new revised invoice you need to create. You can't keep invoice #'s and or invoice dates. Kind of stinks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to use from everyone (office and field). We have reached out to their support team before and we have always had a quick response. I use the system every day and use multiple functions of the system with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't say that I dislike anything about the system. My only complaint is that it does take my dashboard a minute or so to load each time I login; which is something new. We have made them aware of the issue and they are looking into it. So I have made a habit to login first thing and then check my emails while it loads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How easy it is to move around and learn. I like the how easy it is to upload from other platforms for integrations. I like how you can narrow down the information you need in the reports section. Customer Support is always available to help you 24-7 or you can go to the network and see what is new and learn different techniques that your peers are doing. It is easy to use everday.

Sometimes you can not go back once things are closed. You have to reverse it and go through the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the ease of use (once you learn the system) and the different reports that are available. I also like the Business Intelligence (custom report builder) option that is available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The G/L has a hard time matching our actual Bank/Credit Card reconciles at times. This can be frustrating for our CPA. Also, the support for the software is a nightmare! The first year or so having the software you are "prioritized" but after that good luck getting any quick answers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Spectrum for 5+ years now and absolutley love it! I use it all the time. It is so functionable and easy to use! Another thing I enjoy about Spectrum that I enjoy is how easy it is to navigate the software. So many great features! Customer service is awesome! This time last year, my coworker and I did a migration where we merged 5 different companies into one and the Spectrum consultant we had was GREAT! The import templates are really cool! I would defintley recommend using the product! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cannot think of anything in particular that I dislike about Spectrum! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are so many ways to find the things that you need. It is very user friendly. The help feature is great if you are not sure about something. I have used other software and this is by far the easiest to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some accounting features that Spectrum doesn't have that I wish it did. I would like to be able to view a copy of any checks that I cut and I can't do that. We are also experiencing many software problems and we have had no resolution. We keep getting the same response. Very frustrating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the new help features that they've added in recently and they seem to work very hard at improving modules and adding customer requests. I can't compare to other softwares since this is the first time I've used a construction software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it takes support a long time to get back to you when you're in a pinch and need immediate assistance. I really feel they could improve the support experience with more staff and by accommodating those in different time zones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system works well for multiple entities and consolidated WIP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a very back-office feel. The data entry screens are unforgiving and must be completed in order to continue to the next field. This difficulty lead us to abandon Spectrum for inventory and service work order management after spending thousands extra working with Professional Services to make invoices and reports that worked for our industry.

The standard reports are not useful. You can pay to take the classes to learn how to edit them in Crystal reports. I generally use MS Query and make my own. Spectrum doesn't have the various AIA pay applications or certified payroll reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very user friendly compared to other construction software solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish we could to a double-screen session, but it only lets you use one screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spectrum is very intuitive. Plus there is a ton of help, tutorials and an online network of users to help you learn the software and expand your knowledge. The most robust package I've used to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using it for almost four years now and have not found anything that I really dislike. Just takes some time learning the processes and steps when billing and setting up tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
