At this point, the capital investment of Construction One does not provide an adequate return.
Prior to acquisition by Viewpoint and then Trimble, the customer support was a major selling point of the software. Unfortunately at this time, that is no longer the case.

Yes

Would you buy Viewpoint Spectrum again?

No

Basis of Spectrum (data entry) is fairly easy to use. However extremely difficult to extract information for reports and analysis. Customer Portal, The Network, etc is cumbersome as you need to go to multiple sites to try to resolve issues. Customer Support is a major weakness of Spectrum, as response times are intolerable and knowledge base of the support team is lacking. I should not have to wait hours/days to address support issues for my accounting software. In fact, when asked about Spectrum, the lack of timely Customer Support is generally the first thing mentioned.
