Implementation & buying
What happens to my existing CAD and accounting tools?
You keep the CAD and accounting tools that already work. Spectr is explicit: it fits your workflow instead of forcing a redo, and it syncs with design software, accounting, and material databases.
Key facts
- Named design tools: AutoCAD, Rhino, SolidWorks.
- Named accounting: Sage, Jonas.
- Nesting software stays in the stack.
- The thing you should retire is the Excel ERP in the middle.
How shops handle this
- List what you will not rip out
Usually CAD and the general ledger. - List what you will stop using as a system of record
BOM workbooks, ship workbooks, install checklists. - Integrate the boundaries
Import drawings, sync cost. - Train the new middle
Purchasing, shop, ship, field in Spectr.
Common questions
Will users have more logins?
One more operational login. Fewer files. That is the trade.
What if a tool is not on the logo wall?
Bring it. Custom integrations are part of the FAQ.
