AIA billing without a spreadsheet
AIA G702 and G703 come out of the system correctly. We built those in Excel for nine years and every single one was a chance to make an expensive mistake.
Pros
Retainage tracked on both receivables and payables
Cons
Field and mobile experience is effectively absent

Built for the office, not the field
It is a Windows application and it looks like one from a decade ago. Our younger PMs comment on it. Then they use it, because it answers questions nothing else answers.

The field experience does not exist
Support quality varies enormously depending on who you get and whether you go through Sage or the partner. One call solved a payroll issue in ten minutes. The next took nine days for something simpler. That inconsistency is hard to plan around.

QuickBooks could not answer the only question that mattered
Cost to complete is real here, not a guess. My PMs see margin erosion in week three and can actually do something about it.

Steeper than we were told
Our superintendents cannot use it on site in any meaningful way, so daily logs and time still come in on paper and get keyed by the office. That is a whole job that should not exist in 2026 and it is the single biggest gap.

We finally know if a job is making money
Committed costs from purchase orders and subcontracts show up before the invoice arrives, so I see the overrun coming instead of discovering it at closeout. We have changed how we bid because of what it showed us.

QuickBooks told us we were profitable at the end of the year. This tells us whether this job is profitable this week. That is the entire difference and it is worth every hour of the migration.

Everything happens in the office. Crews on site interact with it through somebody at a desk, because the mobile story is thin. It works. It is also clearly designed around a 1990s org chart.
