Project Management
It's been wonderful to implement a new software to our project management.
Pros
This software is great for keeping all documents relating to a project in one spot. It links all the items I use daily to the project so I don't have to store them on my computer.
Cons
Took a little navigation to find where and how to get things in there. As well as the form making, but overall, not much I don't like.

Foundation Software makes construction accounting easy to understand.
Foundation has made record keeping easy and ready for outside auditors review procedures.
Pros
Cost, user friendliness, help screens updated and online, and support is second to none.
Cons
Absolutely nothing! Hope to expand our usage of Foundation software because we believe that we have not experienced the whole package benefit to date with different modules.
Reasons for choosing FOUNDATION
Cost, setup looked easy, user friendly and construction job specific.
Reasons for switching to FOUNDATION
Construction accounting and work in process excellent and user friendly.

Very poor for anything with sales - we have aggregate sales.
Not accommodating - "we don't have that".
Pros
For my area of use I don't like anything.
Cons
My area deals with aggregate sales and billing for hauling to customers. Not user friendly. Difficult to get our scale system info to import. Invoicing is ridiculous in amount of steps it takes just to enter info.

Great Software, Very Good Value, Oustanding Support. Usually get call back within 30 minutes
We save time on payroll since we no longer had to manually enter time cards for all the field employees. Project managers can easily view their project reports, rather than have to wait for a report to be printed and given to them.
Pros
Ease of use. Once we got past the implementation, which was really pretty simple, we were off and running. Payroll importing of timecards feature is outstanding, no daily data entry except for overhead employees. You create your menu an follow the steps. Accounts Payable features are easy to use and data input in quick and easy, allows you to attached copies of the invoices so others can see what was shipped and invoiced. Check writing is simple and automatically creates additional invoice stub if invoices exceed allowed space on check.
Cons
Would like to see ability to create more reports and lists without all the other data on the report. Must import to excel for some things, which to me is an extra step that could be avoided. Ability to insert blank lines on lists to separate employees on custom employee lists. Doesn't have subaccounts for accounts that you want in more detail, such as repairs to your building or keeping auto expenses separately if you don't purchase the equipment module.
Reasons for choosing FOUNDATION
Easy of use in all modules. Ability to do multi state payroll in one batch. AIA invoicing much simpler to revise if a mistake is made. Better job cost reports for project managers. We called multiple customers to get their reviews and
Reasons for switching to FOUNDATION
Lack of enhancements, requests were pending for 4 years and not implemented. Cumbersome to use. If you had to call support wait time was poor. If you had additional questions, sometimes they would answer, sometimes had to have another support case opened.

Great product with AMAZING customer service
We have had a great experience with Foundation, for our size business, it's perfect!
Pros
The software is easy to use, and customizable. It's simple, and customer service is Fantastic.
Cons
I wish there were more standard caned accounting reports like TTM income/balance sheets and the ability to customize standard budget reports. More filtering criteria to run reports would be great.
Reasons for choosing FOUNDATION
Because of ease of use.
Reasons for switching to FOUNDATION
It was bloated and difficult to use. Practically needed a PhD in ViewPoint to use, or spend a lot of money customizing. Their support team was very very very slow.
