With Intuit Enterprise Suite we have learned how to move some of our manual spreadsheets into the system to keep better track and get better numbers with. Things like Inventory, and Fixed Assets. The training has been great, they have numerous webinars and meetings that help us better understand Intuit Enterprise Suite.

The Installation team is amazing. They provide clear guidance at the beginning of the process regarding what is expected and what needs to be done. The implementation manager follows up monthly with you to make sure you are on track and if you need additional help. They are very helpful and responsive in resolving issues.

Pros
Intuit
  • It tracks all payments to all vendors, so if any questions arise, it's easy to find the answer.
  • It tracks employee hours worked, holiday hours, and other paid time off, including vacations. It also tracks bonuses and employee profile information, including hire dates, contact information, Social Security, and Federal withholding details.
  • At the end of the year, all of our financial transactions can be summarized for our accountants so our tax returns can be prepared.

Cons
Intuit
  • I would like to see an option available to run income statements, balance sheets and statements of cash flows by month.
  • I would like to see an option to set up a consolidated budget to run actual versus budget reports.
  • I would like to see a consolidated accounts receivable and accounts payable listing as an available report.

  • Support isn't readily available. You can submit a ticket and wait days before it's picked up. Even critical issues (system outages) can wait an hour or two before someone responds.
  • Large companies will feel limited. This product wasn't designed to handle large amounts of data, and performance seems to slow when there are more than 80 concurrent users.
  • The new developments are limited. HR Management is less robust than a third-party product specializing in HR Management. Viewpoint Analytics is nowhere near as robust as Power BI or Tableau.

Because I love the software and the people behind it are passionate about building the features to support business growth. They have built so many features I have asked for and it gets better and better

The product is working for us and the cost to implement a new system does not warrant the expense.

Usability

I have worked with other accounting software products and nothing compares to the ease of Intuit Enterprise Suite because it is easy to learn and to train and there are multiple ways and shortcuts to use to get to certain areas within the software.

There's a little bit of a learning curve, but once you've been working in the system for a while, it becomes second nature. I would say that out of all of the other software that I've personally used, Spectrum has been the easiest one to pick up and learn quickly

For the most part the product is very reliable. Since we are hosted we sometimes have connectivity issues but I would say that is more our ISP than Spectrum.

Excellent. I am the first Lighthouse customer and I see first hand that their team cares, they care about not just the features but about their customers and their success. They truly want their customers to succeed

The support has recently changed. Last year, you could call in and get an immediate response. Now that doesn't seem possible unless you have an urgent situation with access to the software, payroll or payables. I have found that using chat or e-mail works nicely for the most part, but sometimes I feel it would be easier if someone from support would jump on our site and take a first-hand look rather than going back and forth

My only insight would be to take time in your implementation and training process; ours was six weeks from start to finish.

Alternatives Considered

I have personal experience with both and believe that Intuit is the best option. Microsoft (and most of their products) are riddled with issues and limit productivity. Netsuite has a lot of customization options, but takes a long time to deal with and is much more expensive for the same things

I have previously used Sage Masterbuilder, another construction industry software. This has been a number of years ago. The company I am working for already had Spectrum and have been using it for as long as it has been around when it was known as Forefront. Based on conversations I've had with the personnel that were here at the time of purchase, Spectrum clicked off all the boxes they were looking for.

You can grant user specific access which is nice. Project managers do not need all the same modules as Accounting. But Accounting does need access to PM modules as well

Return on Investment
Intuit
  • Overall our experience has been great - easy and smooth onboarding process
  • Better support experience has surprised and delighted the team in ways I wasn't really expecting
  • I like it more than I expected I would - the convenience of having it all in one place and being able to toggle through entities is really a major improvement

  • [In my opinion,] it takes at LEAST twice as long to do our jobs now.
  • [I feel like] we are paranoid about something not being printed correctly because of [what I believe are] buggy text fields.
  • [In my experience,] we still have to refer to a physical file cabinet with paper, even though a main point of switching was to go paperless.
  • [In our experience,] screens can now be "locked", so we can't see something if our coworker is also looking at it.
  • [I believe that] the financial hit our company took from this switch was astronomical. [In my opinion:] Beware!
