März 2025* | Bau | Empfehlungsbewertung: 10.0/10 > > **Vorteile**: The customer service availability, training and education. > > **Nachteile**: It can be a bit persnickety when it comes to connectivity. Seems to time out quickly if I am not consistently working in Foundation. That can be annoying. > > Love Foundation Soft for the job costing abilities, the PM module is wonderful and of course PR, AR and AP. The way everything works together is perfect. ----- ### "Foundation; Big Bang for the money" — 5.0/5 > **Kelly** | *3. August 2026* | Bau | Empfehlungsbewertung: 10.0/10 > > **Vorteile**: Value for money. Ease of use. Very user friendly even a new employee with little experience friendly. > > **Nachteile**: Newer products like SafetyHQ \& HRHQ don't sync well together. Wish new products utilize same data for users so there isn't any conflicts for users needing to access both. > > Foundation has been a great step up from our old software. The ease of transition was smooth. The continued offering of new products that integrate with Foundation to expand the ease of managing our company's data. ----- ### "A Step Back in Time" — 2.0/5 > **Cody** | *12. Mai 2026* | Bau | Empfehlungsbewertung: 2.0/10 > > **Vorteile**: The ability to extract data from the tool using ODBC Connection to create custom reporting outside of Foundation. > > **Nachteile**: Constant bugs/issues that are not addressed timely or not tested thoroughly. Outdated technology that is not up to par with industry standards, very limited integration capabilities with other systems, awkward and cumbersome user interface. > > Using Foundation feels like traveling back in time. The software itself is 10-15 years behind industry standards and the company has not embraced advances in software development. Foundation attempts to catch-up but offering "bolt-on" solutions that on average are sub-par and often create as many problems as they solve. I would recommend being slow to adopt any new modules Foundation has to offer. The support team is responsive to questions/issues but often do not have a resolution or technical expertise to properly address issues. On several occasions, Foundation has made a change to the software that was not communicated that has caused issues with how we use the software. Only after reaching out to Foundation are, we made aware that they changed the functionality with disrupts our operations. The core functionality of the tool is adequate to manage the finances of a construction business. However, you will be paying a premium price for a system that offers basic functionality. If you are looking for a software that offers solutions to automate task and increase efficiency, I would recommend exploring other options. ----- ### "A Powerful Construction Accounting System Backed by Exceptional Support" — 4.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *12. Mai 2026* | Bau | Empfehlungsbewertung: 9.0/10 > > **Vorteile**: Foundation has been a really strong fit for our construction accounting needs. The job costing capabilities, payroll functionality, reporting, and overall flexibility are far more tailored to the construction industry than most general accounting software we evaluated. It handles union payroll, multi-state work, certified payroll reporting, and detailed project tracking very well, which is critical for companies like ours. The system has a lot of depth, and once you understand how the modules work together, it can handle a significant amount of operational complexity. Customer support is also exceptional. We’ve worked with many software providers over the years, and Foundation’s support team has honestly been one of the best experiences we’ve had. Their reps are knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely helpful, especially when dealing with complicated construction accounting scenarios. It’s refreshing to work with a support team that actually understands the industry and takes the time to help solve problems instead of reading from scripts. > > **Nachteile**: The biggest limitation for us is foreign currency handling. If your company deals with Canadian vendors, international projects, or multi-currency transactions with any regularity, Foundation falls short in that area. There are workarounds, but they tend to be manual and cumbersome compared to what you’d expect from a modern ERP/accounting platform. Some parts of the system can also feel dated from a usability standpoint, and there can be a learning curve for new users because of how robust the software is. However, for construction-specific accounting, the tradeoff is usually worth it. > > Overall, we’ve had a very positive experience with Foundation. For construction companies with complex payroll, job costing, and reporting requirements, it’s one of the better industry-specific accounting systems available. The software is powerful, highly customizable, and clearly built with contractors in mind. While there are areas that could be modernized, particularly around foreign currency functionality, the strength of the core construction accounting features and the outstanding customer support make it a system we would still highly recommend. ----- ### "Gets the job done" — 4.0/5 > **Kurt** | *28. Juli 2026* | Bau | Empfehlungsbewertung: 8.0/10 > > **Vorteile**: Even though the software is fairly easy to use, the customer support is excellent when something is a little more difficult to accomplish. > > **Nachteile**: I don't feel like it has modernized yet. Everything is in one window, so you can't easily do dual screen or have two separate windows up to compare or help with processing. > > I really think the best part of Foundation is the customer support. I feel the next edition should modernize it more though. ----- Seite: 1 / 17\ Weiter: [Nächste Seite](https://www.capterra.com.de/software/2032/foundation?page=2) ## Links - [Auf Capterra anzeigen](https://www.capterra.com.de/software/2032/foundation) ## Diese Seite ist in den folgenden Sprachen verfügbar | Sprache | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Strukturierte Daten
