Pros

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

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.”
AA

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.”

Pros

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

Lee S.

Assistant Vice President

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. ”
KD

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. ”
KD

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.”
DE

Diane E.

Payroll 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.”
MA

Matt A.

Office Support

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

Lee S.

Assistant Vice President

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