Foundation Software Construction Accounting vs. TermSync

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.

If you are one person or managing 10, TermSync allows you to track what you and your team is working on. When to follow up with customers so that no one is missed. It allows you to see if each teammate is pulling their weight and getting done what needs to be done or if more help is needed. The Executive Metrics reports give you all the information for month end reporting and also shows you the weaknesses so you can motivate your team to excel in those areas.

• The dashboard makes it easy to organize my daily work and to track customer contacts.
• TermSync makes it easy for our customers to communicate with us at a time the best works with their schedule.
• I love the credit reference reports. This saves us all the time of printing, completing and faxing credit reference reports.

• 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.

• Reporting. It is hard for TermSync to create a report for every business type out there so you may need to have some things customized, but they are always willing to assist.
• The requirements needed to accept payments online requires some information that larger companies may not want to give out.

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.

the person from them was impatient and would make comments about we've been over this

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

When researching for this type of product, I did reach out to other vendors. I worked closely with Billtrust in the past and they were lacking in this area when I was ready to make my move. It is my understanding that they have something very robust in the works but I can't say where that will fall on the cost spectrum. By comparison, other companies, like Get Paid had priced themselves right out of our market. TermSync gave us the tools we needed at a price we could afford in the least amount of time and very little assistance from our IT Group, which was a big relief.
