Viewpoint ProContractor is a versatile software that is widely used across different departments in organizations. The accounting department relies on it for efficient job cost management, while project managers and engineers utilize its features to track job costs and budgets. With the capability to create purchase orders and track purchases, the software provides valuable insights into project costs.

In the estimating department, Viewpoint ProContractor shines in earthwork and large area takeoffs, enabling precise measurements and helping teams better understand the project site. The software even allows for the import of CAD files, expediting the takeoff process. However, some organizations have transitioned to more user-friendly products as ProContractor's complexity grew over time.

Seamlessly integrating with the Viewpoint accounting system, ProContractor primarily serves as a comprehensive business ERP solution. It supports various functions such as accounting, payroll, project cost accounting, vendor management, and select project management features. However, it may not be the go-to choice for estimating, equipment management, or materials tracking.

Users appreciate how Viewpoint ProContractor helps them stay organized with current and ongoing projects. It assists with ordering supplies, scheduling subcontractor appointments, managing bills, and tracking work orders and jobs. This software proves invaluable for streamlining accounting and dispatching tasks within General Contracting companies that have relied on it for over a decade.

Its a great program when it works. In my opinion, the cloud based system that Trimble is pushing is broke. We changed from in house server to the cloud 2 weeks ago. Since then the system has been down three complete days. Despite reporting a complete company shut down, Tech support took over 24 hours to get to our "Ticket"

The amount of PO's we have going, its nice to be able to type a job name if you cannot remember the number. Or vice versa. I learned a new trick the other day to see all parts ordered for the job instead of having to look through individual PO's which is amazing.

The Viewpoint ProContractor is great. I am able to see everything I need to help our company be successful. I am able to look at a list of jobs that have not started, jobs in progress and jobs complete that are ready for billing. I have the ability's to look up customers quick and easily for their information anytime I need.

ProContractor is a great fit if you are looking to make the jump to an ERP (accounting) system that offers a higher level of complexity and controls than what QuickBooks or Xero have to offer. However, some of those increased features of accounting controls, vendor compliance management, project contracting and documentation, come at the cost of lost integrations. ProContractor is completely siloed and does not openly communicate with other platforms (project management, bank accounts, etc).

ViewPoint ProContractor provides lots of options and seems to have the ability to handle most tasks required for the accounting department as well as for project managers. Overall the system is cumbersome and a lot of time can be lost trying to work through the software and find areas/options that are needed. Limited in handling unexpected changes though this is probably by design but does not suit our needs as a site contractor with ever changing needs. While they do respond to comments and add new features the process is slow.

I think it might work for smaller contractors that have less stringent management requirements, policies, and procedures. To get buy-in from project managers to use, it would need to be a little bit more user-friendly, but if your biggest concern was project accounting, this is a great tool. Smaller projects often have lower levels of RFI and submittal requirements, fewer subcontractors and commitments, etc. meaning that where this software is weaker, they will have less use for it anyway.
