Overall Satisfaction with Viewpoint Vista

We use VP for every aspect of our construction company from writing subcontracts, purchase orders, billing owners, tracking costs, entering supplier invoices, printing checks, sending and receiving payments, month end closing and payroll. We might use some secondary programs, but they all tie back into Viewpoint for a one stop view of our projects and overall company profit and loss.
  • subcontract tracking
  • Invoices being posted and approved by the proper people
  • Running a variety of reports
  • Being able to export reports
  • when an invoice comes in for a PO or subcontract and it's over the dollar amount you can still enter the invoice. This should be stopped and not allowed.
  • Subcontract change orders are a struggle to create and uninterface
  • higher profit margins since we can review our cost at any time and it's live
  • Negative is the struggle with subcontract change orders
  • Better cost anyalsis
I have always found VP easy to use. I love the fact that a person can customize there tasks tab to what makes sense to them and how they use it. Not everyone has the same job or things the same way, so to be able to have this individual control is great. VP's standard tabs make sense if you think about what your task is and how it relates to the project.
We use this system for every aspect of our projects, so we are pulling data from the system on a daily basis to make decisions.
It doesn't COINS was a DOS program and VP is a windows program.
