What is A-Systems JobView?

The primary objective of A-Systems JobView centers around job costing, emphasizing the importance of profitability in your operations. After you establish a job, the system enables you to juxtapose your projected budget against the actual expenditures, while also forecasting the total cost required to complete the task. Job Costing reports allow you to monitor all relevant information, empowering you to assess profitability even before project completion. This means you can evaluate the financial viability of each phase of the job as it progresses. A-Systems JobView is not only user-friendly but also quick to master, ensuring a smooth learning experience. Additionally, we offer assistance in transferring data related to customers, vendors, or employees from your current software, and we provide support in organizing your financial statements. Furthermore, we will guide your team on the straightforward process of converting estimates into budgets, enhancing your overall operational efficiency.

    A-System User Review

    Date: Mar 14 2023
    Summary

    I have used A-Systems with my last 2 companies and have been very satisfied that I am able to produce the reports needed to track my accounting requirements.

    Positive

    A-System is user friendly and easy to use. The customer service is really the best which make any issues not a problem because everything can be resolved quickly and easy. A-system is always improving because user comments are used by the software team for continued improvements.

    Negative

    There should be more reports available to create without having to pay additional it should be part of the software package.

    Breath of fresh air

    Date: Jan 09 2023
    Summary

    JobView was so very much better than the (un-named) Construction Accounting software we suffered through over the past few years.

    Positive

    Although it's been several years, i find almost all the JobView program is so intuitive that it makes my job more productive. The ease of most corrections. Voiding almost any type of transaction. Merging accounts (customer, jobs, General Ledger)

    Negative

    Two or three of the procedures seem a bit convoluted. there are some restrictions in applying receipts that i find cumbersome.

    Job Costing made easy

    Date: Mar 17 2023
    Summary

    Multi year updates, great customer service, tends to customer requests, software works great. The Support Contract is very reasonable. Been using JobView for over for over 30 years with great success in my accounting for Contractors, Banks, Bonding Companies, etc.

    Positive

    JobView provides a variety of detailed job reports, makes updating easy, and customizations abound. Integration with the accounting side that makes financial statements and WIP schedules a breeze. Annually there are many new features to enhance the performance of JobView.

    Negative

    Not as easy as QB's but much more secure and detailed.

    A lot of features at a great price

    Date: Mar 14 2023
    Summary

    We love the program and the support team. We have been using Job View for decades! I think that says it all.

    Positive

    The flexibility of the program to tweak to your exact business needs. Great reporting and integration of all the features.

    The support team is also amazing when needed.

    Negative

    It would be great to have a true cloud based version.

    Excellent Software for the Construction Industry

    Date: Mar 13 2023
    Summary

    We have been with A-Systems since 1992 and they have been amazing in keeping up with technology. They are always coming up with new updates several times a year to make the software better and they even have a users conference every year that users are invited to attend to offer up suggestions to make the software better. They have a support line that is very good and we have used it on many occasions and they have always helped us solve our problems. We have been approached by other software companies, but we have found none we like better.
    We give A-Systems a grade "A" in overall performance and customer satisfaction.

    Users input that is actually used to better the software.
    Annual users conference for A-Systems Developers to meet with end users and find better ideas to update the software.

    Best Construction Software Out There

    Date: Jan 09 2023
    Summary

    Super Easy to Learn, Super Value and the Best Support Ever!
    This program will meet any need you have in construction accounting and make it super easy. In program, lien releases for A/P, AIA billing for A/R and certified Payroll Reports for P/R. You won't be disappointed.

    Positive

    Super user friendly. All modules pretty much work the same so easy to learn, best support of any program I have ever worked in for the last 31 years. The support staff will also work with getting things you think would make A-Systems better into the program at your request. If you are looking for the best all round program for construction accounting. You will get it with A-Systems JobView and extremely fair priced for the package you get.

    Negative

    31 years and I honestly can't say I have ever not been satisfied.

    A-Systems Review

    Date: Mar 13 2023
    Summary

    I am happy with the overall product, and I believe that any issues that arise will be handled by tech support in a timely manner.

    Positive

    I enjoy using the product because of the robust features within A-systems. Tech support is also very helpful whenever I have an issue.

    Negative

    Some of the reports are hard to navigate and can cause issues whenever providing reports to accountants.

    Could Not Work Without It!

    Date: Mar 13 2023
    Summary

    I have recommended this to many of the other contractors with whom I work. Having used QuickBooks for another entity, this is far superior for the construction industry.

    Pricing for the product I find to be very reasonable.

    Positive

    It encompasses my entire financial outlook, including both job and non-job related work. My accountant is especially grateful for the detail and thorough nature of reporting. I use it essentially all day and it holds probably 95% of the data that I need to access in any given day. The AIA documents and job reports are invaluable.

    Negative

    Customizing reports can be tricky and I can't always tell if all of the data is portrayed when I try to make a new report. The posting reports could be a bit more condensed, too.

    Date: Mar 13 2023
    Summary

    I have enjoyed using JobView for many years. JobView personnel are friendly and provide great support.
    I have never had a crash of this program nor have I had to restore from a backup. Maybe lucky but it makes me happy.

    Positive

    Ease of use.
    Great history for tracking transactions.
    Bank Reconciliation module is easy to use.
    Transactions cannot be undone and hidden. There is a record of every transaction once it is recorded.
    Easy to move transactions and reports to spreadsheet.

    Negative

    Not able to click on transactions to drill down on source. Have to run a separate report.
    Payables does not alert to duplicate invoice numbers.

    A-Systems

    Date: Mar 13 2023
    Summary

    My overall experience with A-Systems has been excellent. I worked for another company that used this service for 20+ years. When that company closed, I had several jobs over a few years. But when I went to work for another contractor, I recommended JobView for them. We were set up in April of last year and have been very happy with the software and the exceptional customer service and support.

    Positive

    My favorite aspect of JobView is that when you call for support, you speak to a person immediately - no waiting for ticket numbers to be issued, then a representative to call you back. You get immediate attention.
    The system is user friendly, and the job cost reports are easy for our project managers to understand.

    Negative

    I have used several other systems during the last few years of job hopping, but this is by far the most user friendly. I have no complaints.

    WFC Builders, Inc. | Controller

    Date: Mar 14 2023
    Summary

    Software questions are accurately answered by a live person 99% of the time with a single phone call and any programming "fixes" are completed timely at no additional cost. A-Systems is easy to do business with and they thoroughly understand their software and how it fits our business.

    Positive

    We're a small general contractor in commercial construction. Software product is user friendly, intuitively "laid out" and efficient to use. Over the past 9 years, programmers have incorporated several enhancements customized to fit our business needs without compromising or creating confusion for other company's users. Incremental improvements and small "fixes" are regularly implemented without causing any downtime.

    Negative

    Job View currently does not have a construction project management module or a remote user time card/keeping system. Would be nice additions.

    A-Systems Jobview

    Date: Jan 09 2023
    Summary

    Everyone at A-Systems is super helpful. From providing technical assistance in the software to, sometimes even, accounting advice, the level of professionalism and service is beyond compare. The User Conferences are my absolute favorite! Getting hands on instruction and advice and being able to provide feedback and suggestion that are actually taken into account and even implemented is just phenomenal.

    Positive

    The level of support and reception to feedback is second to none among software products I use. Knowing help is just a quick email or phone call away puts my concerns at ease. The software itself is fairly intuitive and quite user friendly. I only wish I had more time in the day to learn what I am NOT utilizing. I know it would make my work life easier.

    Negative

    There are various different modules that we don't currently use, but would like to have more time in the day to learn and implement for our crew.
