1/5

Vista is a very powerful accounting and project management software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Viewpoint review"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Vista?

Since the purchase of Viewpoint by Trimble we have seen a lot of investment in making Viewpoint better overall for users and support has increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vista?

Recent change to Aatrix for tax reporting. I believe Viewpoint thought it was easier to outsource. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to run reports"
5/5
What do you like best about Vista?

Reports are very easy to run and can be customized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vista?

I really wish that I didn't have to open multiple different applications to accomplish one task. Change orders take so many windows! The other thing is the program looks very dated, like it is from 1994 or something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3.5/5
What do you like best about Vista?

The software works well, and the customization options seem great. They've definitely been utilized in our company! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vista?

Online training can sometimes be outdated. For example, Viewpoint Acadamy's Import training videos look different than what we see. Not extreme, but it sometimes makes connecting the dots a bit of a hurdle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Vista"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Vista?

The customizability with UD Fields and financial strengths with job costing are Vista's strengths. Additionally, T&M Billing is an underrated program with how helpful it can be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vista?

There is no paid when paid process without creating one yourself. They should consider updating AP to incorporate this and monthly close to be by module. Also, updates to AP should be able to happen similar to AR rather than be so inflexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Vista - Incredible Software for Cost Tracking in Construction"
5/5
What do you like best about Vista?

Vista is a very in depth software, and can be overwhelming with all that it can do. Clearview is their resource portal in which you can find learning videos for each module and ask questions to find answers on how to do things, research errors, and figure out so many things. Often times I search for answers on an issue I am having and end up learning so much more that I had no clue how to do! Most support techs are very helpful when submitting tickets as well. I have not run into too many things that cannot be done with this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vista?

Often times, my support tickets are not something that needs immediate attention, so they take a little longer to get resolved. Sometimes responses can take up to 5 days. Response times have gotten better in the last 6 months though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
