## Reviews

### "I would NEVER reccomend this program" — 2.0/5

> **Lyndsey** | *April 2, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: While there's not much to like about this program, I do like that images can accompany entries. I also feel that this program could reach its potential if the Spectrum team would listen to their users and take their feedback.
> 
> **Cons**: I find this program is not user-friendly in the least; there is no room for human error, which is frustrating on a daily basis. The fact that there are no adjustments or deletions of invoices after they are "posted" is beyond infuriating. When raised in other posts, concerns are dismissed, and you are told it's for a paper trail. Other accounting programs are more forgiving and user-friendly. There are many ways the program could still be secure and maintain accountability by granting certain people within the organization the authority to perform specific tasks. I leave work most days feeling defeated and drained. One task that should take 1-2 minutes ends up taking 10 min due to reversals and re-entering. When paying vendors, instead of paying within the vendor, you are forced to another generic screen and enter all pertinent information again to enter the payment. Again, time consuming and frusterating.
> 
> The amount of money our company has sunk into this system is sickening. We even had to hire a new admin assistant because of the inefficiencies we experience daily. Overall, I would recommend finding a new program for accounting. Save money and sanity at the same time\!

### "Treasurer, CAO" — 5.0/5

> **Jerry** | *July 28, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use/intuitive. The software package is continually enhanced - never stays static.  We have always felt comfortable that it's capabilities would help our company succeed.
> 
> **Cons**: Massive application with a lot of moving parts.  It takes time to grasp the full weight of it's offerings.
> 
> Have used the software for 20+ years and has been an integral part of our business' growth.  We have never had a concern that we would outgrow it's capabilities.

### "Don't do it\!\!\!\!" — 1.0/5

> **Suzanne** | *June 24, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The job costing seemed relatively robust but is overshadowed by so many other areas that are lacking in performance
> 
> **Cons**: PR, reporting, AP and especially the customer service. When I took the lead role in accounting, this software was already in place but it is highly insufficient for our needs.  It is almost impossible to find transactions (both sides of a journal entry, for example) unless you made the entry and already know how it was coded.  Customer service is a shot in the dark, to put it mildly and many reps on many occasions indicated to fix a particular issue, a one sided entry would be needed.  Anyone in accounting knows that ais a horrifying answer to get.  Once we left, we lost access in 30 days and the backup files are even harder to use (you have to search SQL tables) to try to find anything.
> 
> The overall experience was less than stellar.  Customer support reps are generally less than knowledgeable, as a whole they give you the impression that they could care less (including sales and other support teams) and other than the job costing, most of the modules are insufficient, daily use is clunky, and reporting is bad.

### "Review of Spectrum" — 5.0/5

> **Alyssa** | *August 12, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We love the instant visibility that the software provides.  We can run job cost or profitability reports quickly so we know how our projects are going.  Being able to customize reports has been very beneficial as well.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be hard to customize reports if you don't know Crystal Reports.  As analytics is built out I think that will make it easier to customize the data.
> 
> Our experience with Spectrum has been great.  The support is excellent. Help is always available in the way of courses and the knowledge center.  We like that Trimble is always trying to improve the product so it functions as accurately as possible to drive sound business decisions.

### "managing member" — 5.0/5

> **Natasha** | *August 4, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Payroll has been helpful and useful to our company.  We were able to bring this service in house to process ourselves. I like how Accounts payable prints the draw requests.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish credit cards and banks connected live to Spectrum as they do in Quickbooks. It seems like that is a great way to see all the money in real time that goes in and out.
> 
> Training was quick and we picked up on it very quick.  Our trainer \[sensitive content hidden\] was wonderful, however it was very expensive which was an added cost I wasn't expecting.
