Spectr vs other systems

Spectr vs Logikal

Logikal is a leading system for windows, doors, and curtain-wall profile design, costing, and machine data. Spectr is an ERP for running the project, inventory, shop, crates, and install. Many fabricators need a design/costing tool and an operations backbone — not one tool pretending to be both.

See this on your jobs CAD to production-ready BOMs

Key facts

Logikal: supplier catalogs, design logic, CNC-oriented outputs.
Spectr: project control, unique product tracking, inventory containers, shipping, field.
Spectr imports from CAD (AutoCAD, Rhino, SolidWorks) to create scannable product records.
A clean interface beats retyping a profile BOM into Excel “for the shop.”

How shops handle this

Keep the tool that prices the system correctly
If Logikal (or similar) is how you win work, do not rip it out.
Hand off a structured BOM
The operational system should not re-key profiles and accessories.
Run inventory and crates in the ERP
Design software should not become your warehouse.
Close on the wall
Install status is an ERP/field problem, not a profile-logic problem.

Common questions

Does Spectr include a Schüco catalog?

Spectr is not a profile-system configurator. It is the operational twin after design exists.

Can they integrate?

Spectr is built to work with design and nesting tools. Bring your export format to the conversation.
