    I believe ConstructConnect's customer service is non-existence. In my experience, the cloud based software system never seems to be functioning at 100% and is usually a problem, like today. I feel they do a poor job updating projects and providing accurate construction schedule information; Most of it is dates given a inaccurate.

    Working as a general contractor or subcontractor, I highly recommend Foundation Software Construction Accounting. I would not recommend it for anything outside construction, but it could still be used for other businesses.

    • details, details, details.. again, marvelous.
    • filters work really well giving highly efficient results pointed at just what you want.
    • exporting to pdf with customizable flexibility, very useful giving all the details on a project or firm via attachments to emails.

    Cons
    ConstructConnect
    • A comprehensive log of jobs in my area would be nice. We're located in Gainesville FL. There has been 10 jobs this month we're on because of our sub contracts. Not one of them made it on ConstructConnect. How many other jobs am I not seeing?

    • I think A/P Invoice approval could be much smoother.
    • Purchase orders should be more detailed able to be issued and easily modified and enter invoices against them.
    • A/P check distribution should let you select checks for ACH payment and printed check in the same run.

    There are some things it lacks, certain reports or history audits. I have to call them to do certain things-submit a ticket and wait on someone to call back instead of getting someone immediately. Especially if it's urgent. I have to wait on them to push an update-and they usually run a week or 2 later- to pull quarterly or annual tax forms.

    I give Foundation Software Construction Accounting this rating because once you learn the software and how detailed its with multiple steps to complete transactions, it is very user friendly and keeps you from making user errors.

    Support is usually pretty great. Most of the time return calls to tickets logged are fairly quick. Most everyone is knowledgeable and helpful.

    We chose ConstructConnect as our main way for finding new and existing construction projects, as it overall had more up-to-date information available. It was also the most user friendly software of its type on the market. Furthermore, they have also been working with us closely to help us tighten our tracking of projects, products, and companies, which saves us a lot of time and money.

    Personally,
    I did not have a hand in deciding the software, but for our company is has not
    led to increased productivity or made things easier. It has been more difficult
    for payroll to be inputted correctly and the payroll reports for certified
    payroll often come out incorrect and we need to manually figure out how to correct
    the issues and get them in correctly
