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.”
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.”

Cons

“Even contacting our account manager has had no result and now I am browsing the "Meet the team" webpage to try to irritate someone "important" at Jonas to try to get some help.”
EM

Eddie M.

CEO

“It is the single least popular software in our organisation.”
EM

CEO

“Windows based origins made it difficult for some of our workstations”
SW

Simon W.

Project Manager

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.”
