Pros

“The payroll module handles union rates and varying wage determinations with ease, and their support team actually understands construction, not just generic accounting.”

Angie S.

Partner

“You need to be willing to submit a ticket via a portal without any external confirmation or record of the ticket and then sit by your phone waiting for a response that may take days to come. ”

Jason L.

Controller

“The reporting features are robust, and the software is designed with the construction industry in mind rather than trying to force a generic accounting system to fit our needs.”

Heather G.

Business Operations

Pros

“I have worked with Structure as a "bookkeeper", a project manager, and an IT support staff. ”

Lee S.

Assistant Vice President

Cons

“I don't like that you can't edit an invoice's basic information like description or accounting date without having to void the entire transaction.”

Lisa G.

Director of Finance

“Outdated technology that is not up to par with industry standards, very limited integration capabilities with other systems, awkward and cumbersome user interface.”

Cody B.

Controller

“I also do not like the format they use to make the actual invoices/statements designs in the Data Genies. ”

Melissa A.

Office Manager

Cons

“There are significant limitations in such basic, simple interface such as character limits within modules, practically non-existent report exporting, and more complex technology like vendor-to-vendor integration that simply aren't found in today's programming.”

Matt A.

Office Support

“However, the trade off is that making mistakes is much more difficult.”

Lee S.

Assistant Vice President

“Sometimes it things result difficult, to many buttons, to many steps.”
