CFO (Chief Financial Officer) in Finance and Accounting at Primus Companies, Inc. (11-50 employees employees)

Pros

Job Dashboard gives you a great summary of that job at a glance. I can even pull direct reports based on the fact that there are drill-downs.
I can go right to the receipt with the GL report drill-down capabilities.
Workflows make the product accessible from anywhere for approval when I have people on the road.
Dragging and dropping reports to in AP will then go to documents under the job it is attached to.

Cons

There is not a great option for lien tracking at this point.
When printing waivers, you have to go an repick everything in your check run.

Return on Investment

We would have had to hire at least one more person in accounting to handle all the paperwork we were dealing with.

Pros

Jonas has features that make managing every aspect of a project possible. This eliminates the need for multiple software and makes all the information easily accessible for all departments.
Jonas is constantly improving and adding new features to fit their customer's needs. The Sub Pay app is an example of this and has helped our workflow tremendously.

Cons

We would love to see the interface continued to be improved visually and made more customizable.
We would like a reporting feature for the Sub Pay App automatic email delivery. This will help us keep track of links that are not getting to our subcontractors.

Return on Investment

Jonas has positively impacted our Accounts Payable and Receivable department by making tracking and processing organized and streamlined. Previously we were having to track invoices and payments through emails and various formats. We are now able to connect each AP or AR invoice to the job and subcontractor, keep track of the billing due dates, and have all the paperwork generated from Jonas.
