Pros:

The speed of the screen is very nice but it does come at the sacrifice of the quality. The data entry for the takeoff is on par with the competition.

Cons:

Only looking at one plan sheet at a time is very cumbersome. Also, the program has a hard time uploading roll plots.

Great ERP for Small Contractors

Through our years of using ProContractor we have been able to begin proper job costing practices, tracking equipment cost and usage, monitor daily quantities to aid in cash forecasting. It has helped us properly analyze indirect costs and overhead to push that information into our bids and ensure we are bidding profitable work.

Functionality

Pros:

The accounting aspects are very user friendly. The software has the same "feel" no matter what module you are currently using. The downfall during implementation was having an implementer who didn't understand UNIT COST budgeting and cost tracking. I had to walk her through how I wanted the software setup. Once I did that, it has worked the way I hoped it would. Her lack of understanding was a definite issue.

Cons:

One of the biggest problems with ProContractor is within the document management. The software goes a great job of housing documents, it is just difficult to get back to them when you need them. Also, this is not a great software for larger construction projects.

Reasons for switching to ProContractor

Quickbooks is not capable of detailed job costing. Detailed job costing is vital in our industry.

Still Prefer Timberline

I use this for purchase orders and subcontracts as well as their compliance. While I like there is a report that can be run to show what is out of date I would also like a reminder email so I know weekly what is falling out of compliance. It works fine overall but I have many tweaks I could suggest.

It's been good. I do wonder if, at some point, ProContractor would become 'Viewpoint Express' or similar, as Viewpoint seems to integrate with more 3rd party apps.

Pros:

Basic jobcosting, finance/accounting, asset management, and all other financial accounting for income statement and balance sheet utilization.

Cons:

Making changes for new functions (time & material billings) are very involved and take too much time to implement. Almost too many options for customization.

Reasons for choosing ProContractor

Cost and familiarity, having been American Contractor users previous to Accubuild.

Reasons for switching to ProContractor

Accubuild could not produce basic income statements, balance sheets, or jobcosting reports. It was a software program with little to no support. Ownership could not backup what they promised and became unresponsive.

Serves its purpose but is not the most user friendly

My experience with ProContractor has gotten better over the years, however I still feel like there are many things that don't flow easily. Project accounting and Work in Process is very manual. There aren't great notifying features for analytics on job performance. Teaching the system is extremely tinkery and customer support in my opinion has been poor.

Pros:

How every section is the same format, so once you figure out the system it is somewhat repetitive.

Cons:

The number of button clicks it takes to input an invoice. The inability to program a few things while entering a visa statement to keep the company and account number the same. Not being able to use dashes in project number.

Pros:

The General ledger reports are easy to use and I like that I can just drill down to see the detail in the accounts.

Cons:

Software is not user friendly and the help desk is to vague in their responses. The AP adjustment process is so confusing. We've had so many issues with payroll that I have to use an outside accrual system.

Reasons for switching to ProContractor
