Overview
Trimble Viewpoint is a family of construction-specific ERP and project management software, anchored by two flagship products: Vista, an on-premise or hosted job-cost accounting and ERP system aimed at general contractors and specialty trades, and Spectrum, a cloud-based construction ERP built for enterprise-level contractors. Both products unify accounting, job costing, project management, HR/payroll, equipment management and service management in a single system, with the goal of connecting back-office finance teams to field operations.
Viewpoint is part of Trimble Construction One, Trimble's connected construction management suite that links office, field and extended project teams across the full construction lifecycle -- from estimating and pre-construction through project closeout and service/warranty work. Vista and Spectrum customers can extend the core ERP with adjacent Trimble Viewpoint products such as Viewpoint For Projects (document and project control), Viewpoint Field View/Field Management (jobsite tracking), Viewpoint HR Management, and Viewpoint Analytics.
Trimble maintains a marketplace (Trimble Marketplace / App Xchange) of certified integrations, including bi-directional connectors syncing project, vendor, cost-code, budget and invoice data between Procore and Viewpoint Vista.
