    • Their payroll module is terribly slow and very clunky.
    • Job costing parameters are very strict and limited.
    • Each module interface has too many forms and screens.
    • There is too much flexibility regarding where to put information into the system. There isn't one place to do anything, which creates confusion for staff.

    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

    It is extremely customizable and tracks so many complicated costs very well, more-so than other construction software programs out there that we've used in the past. It is also not an easy program to use for those even slightly not comfortable with a computer. The help sections/knowledge base could be better organized and updated more. It is a very powerful software program for our business and we rely on it hugely to see how our projects are running in real-time.

    No issue downloading the reports - I do find sometimes it is easier to export and save than it is to print to a pdf. Options on the different reports not consistent. You can print a couple projects on the JC Contract Status Report - but you have to do each project for the JC Cost by contract item - when neither one is a drill down - not a big deal

    When privately owned, it was very good, then dropped when owned by Bane Capital Investments. Now that it has been bought by Trimble and has a home, support is back up again. Response time is better than most software companies, and the information provided is good. They have Chat support for quick answers, and a good Knowledge Base and video libraries.

    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.

    The platform utilizes advanced predictive analytics to anticipate operational bottlenecks and put them out of commission before the problems become larger. We can proactively develop effective strategies that help keep service quality in the face of unexpected changes in the market, or external disruptions, by continuously analyzing historical performance data as well as elements of the current market

    I personally have not used another ERP system other than Viewpoint Vista. I am sure there are others out there, but from listening to my managers experiences before Great Basin Industrial implemented Viewpoint, the other options were less superior to what Viewpoint offers. I think if you are looking for an ERP system in the construction industry, then Viewpoint is the way to go

    For a small business - this program is well used in the accounting and operations. The two different work plans are set up for success. Alot of the programs we do not use - but like the reports that are generated - one disadvantage if you do not know crystal reports you cannot edit your form to meet your needs so there is a lot of printing different several forms to get all the information you need.

    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
