An extensive review of construction software leads The Remodeling Company to United Solutions and Sage 100 Contractor Software

When it comes to accounting software, The Remodeling Company has run the gamut. In 1998, Gary Moffie founded The Remodeling Company, a construction business that specializes in higher-end whole-house remodels. “As we started to grow, QuickBooks was not able to keep up with our needs.” Separate spreadsheets were needed to track job costs and other detail, making the process unwieldy, and his team would end up entering the same data two or three times. When the company had grown to twice its original size, Moffie knew he needed to get everything into one system. He shopped around and found a software company in California that he liked and ordered the software, only to discover that the product did not match what was described in the course overview. Moffie resumed his search and soon purchased what he thought was another promising product. While the system proved easy to use, it too lacked the detail that his company needed.

United Solutions and Sage 100 Contractor Software provide the solution

Then, Moffie received a call from United Solutions. “During the demo, I saw that Sage 100 Contractor could give us the detail we couldn’t get with the other software,” Moffie says. “I bought the product on the spot.” In one especially helpful transition, Moffie moved his job summary reports from spreadsheets to the software. He uses software reports to guide weekly production meetings with his project supervisors. “As a former marketing and sales guy, I’m obsessed with numbers,” Moffie says. “The journal gives me the numbers I need down to the finest detail.”

United Solutions Professional Services provides customization

As his business has grown, Moffie has found an occasional need to customize a report. When that happens, he taps the expertise of United Solutions whose expert consultants have helped create customized change order reports, cash flow reports by job and reports for hours worked by day and by job. United Solutions also designed a report for The Remodeling Company’s 401K and profit sharing plan that is used to make deposits each month. “Whenever I need a special report, United Solutions is very quick to deliver.” “When I go to events, other contractors ask me about how I run my business,” Moffie says. “I’m a very enthusiastic supporter of Sage 100 Contractor. I’ve had experience with lots of different software and nothing compares.”
