I dislike the length of time it takes to get to a complete resolution on issues that are found in the software.

Having the ability to customize reports and letters, as well as track data and due dates, is so beneficial. The CGC staff is certainly worth commenting on.

For me the best feature about the software is the Reporting. Every construction ERP that we reviewed  did not have a powerful Biz Intelligence reporting writing tool.

The system need a custom installation and very difficult to try to understand.

The customer support has remained strong. CGC modules we like best are Accounts Payable, Document Imaging and Workflow routing, IBM software maintenance program, General Ledger, Data Inquiry.

We have been using  eCMS since it was CMS, we are fairly familiar with the system. Introduction browser as interface did add and open more windows and we are happy with it.

I have used this for 11 years and love everything about it from billing to check writing to reporting.

ECMS is an excellent out of the box solution that doesn't take a handful of programmers to develop and setup.

Their customer support is amazing. So knowledgeable, helpful and kind.

All of our Job Costing data flows back into the Estimating Department to continue the cycle of successful project bidding.

CGC's commitment to constant improvement, as well as it's customer's needs, has yielded a product that continues to evolve.

Its ability to handle imaging smoothly and effortlessly is still what sets it apart from the competition.

Solid ERP system with excellent data imaging capability and customer support.

User Friendly, Comprehensive ERP Construction Software.

Computer browser restrictions has limited some functionality over the years but is soon going away in the new anticipated release.

I have to manage our projects through a variety of stages in order to be successful and this ERP allows me to do that with ease.

Visibility and accessibility of actual Job Cost is straight forward and easy to use for project management and accounting staff. We upgraded to eCMS4.1 in October 2018.

Their customer support is always great and gets us answers and help quickly. With even more new features coming soon, it will only make our investment in eCMS even more valuable.

You need to make sure it is configured to meet your needs as a company. If it's not done right the first time, it could be painful going back and changing the way the system operates.

We are very happy with the integration of the accounting and project management sides of the software. Integration is key for our efficiency.

We have been using eCMS on the cloud version for almost 10 years. The reliability and flexibility of eCMS is excellent.

Experience has been good overall, It's a stable platform that can do may things required of a construction software package, and can do it all under one system.
