Pros

“When managing heavy civil and grading contracts, the invoicing and billing and payments functionalities are where Viewpoint Spectrum truly shines.”

Michael H.

Survey Manager

“What I like most about Spectrum is the consistency across the system. Whether working in A/R, A/P, Payroll or Inventory the system is consistent and accessing the data is easily understandable.”

Andrea A.

Office Manager

“I also handled lots of payables during my time using Spectrum, and I feel overall accounting wise it is very beneficial and makes invoicing easy and it's easy to see what we need to research in open payables.”

Kaylee C.

Executive Assist-Fleet Manager-FormerAP

Pros

“There are different terms for invoicing (order entry) and purchase orders, which are 2 of my top functions in the current Sage software.”

Rachel B.

Lead Project Accountant

“The ability to drill down into costs by job, phase, and cost code provides strong visibility into project performance.”

Joey M.

IT Manager

“Incredibly flexible and accessible from anywhere and give you the granular control over your construction financials, Sage covers almost every base you could need.”

Lorrie K.

Construction Administrator

Cons

“Support has not been very helpful with this issue, basically stating that reports downloaded from the software have to be saved as 'flattened' images and then re-uploaded to Spectrum, which doesn't always correct the issue. ”

Karen D.

Senior Accountant

“However, recently the images have degraded substantially, to the point that some are unreadable, even when exported out of the software. ”

Karen D.

Senior Accountant

“I am not a fan of the tax override screen, it can be a bit confusing it caused me to withhold only the extra amount because I entered it incorrectly.”

Diane E.

Payroll Manager

Cons

“You have to create a different calculation for every employee for every payrate. When you have 50+ employees and they can work on 3-4 different positions and you have 6 wages scale jobs that is just too many calculations for 4-6 month projects.”

Lori R.

VP of Adminstration

“We found that managing the certified payrolls could be a little cumbersome with detail in the fringe benefits.”

Lorrie K.

Construction Administrator

“By the time I've contacted support, I've already tried to solve the issue six ways from Sunday as I am very familiar with how the software works, so a call is usually my last resort and going around in circles with AI doesn't do it for me, especially given we pay upwards of $15,000 for the gold tier support.”

Controller, Human Resources
