    It is appropriate for the size and scale of my company - 150 projects a year that has a lot going on a multiple lines with each project. However there are many features and things that go unused with the software, because of how tinkery it can be. For example - our company needs a positive pay file, however we had to employ an outside service provide to create the file within the system. Same with a Backlog - the system kind of has a report but then again it has to be manipulated in order for it be of use. It gets the job done and has the reports needed to submit for certified payroll to the state, which was why we purchased Viewpoint ProContractor, however its ease of use is one of its biggest downfalls.

    • There are no offline functionality that users can use remotely.

    • The program is siloed, so connecting to other software or databases is not going to happen.
    • When hosted, the program can run slow.
    • The program is not going to perform complex accounting tasks with subledgers.
    • The program does not do much in terms of HR other than payroll.

    The cost of SAP as an ERP is quite high and the switching costs associated with ERP systems are even higher. That being said moving from one ERP to another only happens once in a great while for large organizations. Those switching costs include retraining, IT hardware requirements, outside consultants and more

    I give Viewpoint ProContractor a 10 out of 10. This system is user friendly to help keep me organized on a daily basis. I can find everything I need daily with this system.

    When something isn't working, you can contact support who will gladly remote into your system and try and work out a solution. Though several of the issues we encountered, they were not able to fix and had to submit for further review. While some were eventually rectified in updates, it takes time for these to be addressed and implemented.

    SAP requires
    a lot of internal and external resources to complete its successful
    implementation. The cloud version requires a deeper understanding of the
    different capabilities of the local systems (hardware) and the connection
    towards your local IT team. We found several problems on our systems that we
    couldn't foresee before the implementation and roll out.

    Procore beats Viewpoint hands down but can integrate well with Viewpoint Vista accounting software. I think that if the Viewpoint software was more flexible if they were more interested in patches, updates, and hearing customer feedback in the way the Procore does, that they would actually have the opportunity to corner the market.

    Return on Investment
    SAP
    • Surpasses many well reputed applications in terms of performance and data insight when you are into SAP products
    • More reliable and secure as we are not going to create multiple copy of master data, one single shared master data and all will work like charm
    • For authentication we can also use Microsoft MFA or Google single sign-on , so less complexity
    • For customized business process, we can implement extension packages which are like templates

    • Overall it allowed us to go electronic for certified payroll allowing us to be more accurate in reporting which was a giant win for the company
    • It's viewable pay estimates with dates and records of payment are crucial to a company like ours that relies on a general contractor and the state for payment of EADA quantites
    • Negatively training is not the easiest for the company and therefore onboarding new employees with no experience with the software is time consuming and difficult.
