Great Software

Comments: The experience so far has been great, it took a little longer to implement and train employees on the program than anticipated but now that we are up and running we are starting to see the power of the software to impact and guide project management.

Pros:

The best part about Jonas Premier is that it is a project management software that is fully integrated with the accounting software because it is the same software. Many other PM software systems say they integrate with accounting but the reconciliations are painful and time consuming making executives question the accuracy of data being produced.This is a great software that does the critical things related to project management and accounting better than most.

Cons:

Payroll processing, banking integrations, KPI reporting, foreign currency translations are clunky, credit card module missing, drawings management, and personnel expense submissions.

Alternatives Considered: Procore, Corecon, AutoCAD and Buildertrend

Reasons for Choosing Premier: Project Management software was required with multicurrency translations. We have both USD and CAD contracts with expenses in both currencies so translation between currencies on a daily basis was crucial.

Switched From: QuickBooks Desktop Pro and Corecon

Reasons for Switching to Premier: PM and accounting functions in one software. Also, paying for a product based on revenue billed is a model of business that is very hard to stomach.
