Foundation is suited for a new small scale business, or one with minimal users.

Comments: Can build costs and parts to build items, good accounting features, lots of reports.

Pros: It is good for accounting, ordering and cost building measures. It is very rarely down, a reliable system for sure in light of all the web based systems out there now. Lots of reporting options.

Cons: No easy way to enter tracking on shipments. Cannot enter partial PO numbers, must have exact matches. Cannot search by name on orders. Have lots of work around options in place, as cannot adjust or change things easily.

the program is useful for smaller companies

Comments: the ability to sell and manage our product

Pros: the ease of editing data and the information it gives you with just s few clicks is great. it runs smoothly and offers a great point of sale experience.

Cons: it is very hard to find the right report. there are many options for retorting but it is also very limited to specifics. and if there is a way to get the report you want, there is no easy way of finding it.

Overall, this software does what it is supposed to do. Nothing more.

Comments: Not a lot. It basically helps me to get the job done.

Pros: I like that it has seperate areas for all functions. (accounts Payable/accounts receivable/sales orders etc..)

Cons: When using the software, it feels that is is rather slow/sluggish. As a whole, I find that the software is not very intuitive.

Proceed with Extreme Caution. Ensure you have "non performance" clauses in your contract.

Comments: Spent 10's of thousands of dollars plus countless hours with multiple staff members and the product was never put into full use after 3 years due to continued issues and a lack of faith in the reliability of the Foundations program. Staff voted unanimously to NOT impliment the Softrends Foundations program.

Pros: The sales pitch created a sense of this program being a one stop solution for everything

Cons: Unknowingly purchased portions of the product that had not even been developed yet. Slow, clunky and unreliable. Solution for every issue was to spend more money. We paid for Foundations to develop software that was sold as functional and ready to use.

Not ready yet

Comments: As I said above it has a lot of features but feels as if it’s being released in alpha

Pros: It looks like this software will eventually be good, a lot of functionality, it ties a lot together.

Cons: As I said above it will eventually be good. We tried to get this up and running for nearly a year before we gave up on the mobile functionality. A year after that we were still struggling to implement it.

it was quick and responsive

Pros: The amount of products in one package. there wasn't another company out there that offered as many products as they did

Cons: The sofware is not fully in the cloud. There are parts of it in the cloud but the entire package is not
