Good only if you have another software that can help with time track/reporting for field employees
Pros
easy of printing checks, enrolling employees and pushing it into payroll or Hr module easily.Ease of use and integration between modules and with other applications. We use several other products that we import from and export to.
Cons
current reports leave out a lot of necessary data, crystal reports not customized.Lack of strong financial statement writer. Currently using FRx . . . we know that we need to move, but haven't found anything that is as flexible. We cannot get good cost analyst report on equipment use.

Wasn't fast enough for me
Pros
I feel like this product was straightforward. It wasn't too difficult to follow the path of where and what you should be doing.
Cons
The product I was using was on a VPN so it was beyond slow. I didn't get all the functionality out of it I should have.

Large learning curve.
Pros
Very precise and good financially. Drill down reports are extremely beneficial. It is super helpful to tract costs and collaborates well with heavy bid.
Cons
Not user friendly at all and needs what seems to be a good amount of work in order to create good, clean, and professional looking documents for businesses.

This software has some really cool features. The layout is very eye pleasing.
Likes Least
Personally, I didn't have much use for some of the features. However, I can see how someone with more contributors would.
Recommendations
Don't be afraid to try out a lot of different software. Free demos are a great way to make sure you get a perfect fit.
