Is there a good way to indicate what documents I have completed and those that I still need to work on?

April 19, 2016/in /by Seamus McGrady

Project Status Flags are a great way to do this. Right click in the project tree and toggle to show the flags. Click on a document’s flag to change it to Green (completed) or Yellow or Red. You may also run the Project Status report showing all of the project documents and their flag statuses.

Customer Testimonials

“VisiSpecs was selected based on its quick learning curve, ease of cloud based deployment across the many users within the firm, and ability to integrate with BIM applications,”
~E. Michnovez, HDR

“Within a month of using VisiSpecs, we are already integrating specs and keynotes in 5 different projects with our Revit models. With shorter deadlines and reduced staff on each project, efficiency is key. VisiSpecs is allowing us to be more efficient and improving specifier and designer coordination.”
~B. Wlosinski, BNIM

“In just two weeks after installing VisiSpecs I was able to complete 4 projects. I would not have been able to meet the tight deadlines without using VisiSpecs. Our masters were easily imported, VisiWord was very easy to learn, and publications were fast and accurate.”
~D. Duff, Populous

“As a specification consultant, I look for ways to save time producing project specs. The editing and other features in VisiSpecs make me more efficient giving me time for other tasks.”
~JMF Technical Documentation Solutions Inc

“As a very small firm, we needed a solution that was very easy to use without tedious and complicated learning curves. We looked at 3 other spec writing apps and found VisiSpecs to be much easier to learn and use which allows us more time to focus in other areas of our work.”
~A. Goodman, Lincoln Lighthill Architects

“Using VisiSpecs saved us many hours even on the 1st project we used it on which easily justifies the pricing for us.”
~R. Rush, arcDESIGN

"After only an hour or two of using VisiSpecs, I can tell it has your competition beat, hands-down. After editing a few sections and having it react like I expected it to, it has made my job more enjoyable. I reached a point where I dreaded even opening our old application. I just knew something would go wrong."
~C. Norton, Strang, Inc.

“The VisiSpecs learning curve so far has been very short and to me that is huge. I’ve been interested in BIM integrated specs for a long time and have not seen such an easy tool to begin the linking process of the specs to my BIM model.”
~L. Noble, Hormberger +Worstell

“A week after installing the Free VisiSpecs Trial, we had our first small tender project documents ready and within two weeks we’ll deliver the full project. We quickly realized the VisiSpecs time and cost savings using the familiar Microsoft Word application and VisiSpecs editing features. The organization of documents in the project tree and video tutorials enabled a very quick learning curve. We have tried other spec tools in the market, but the VisiSpecs strategy is on target for success. “
~P. Connell, DSRA Architecture

“After just two projects using VisiSpecs, the BIM coordination between our models and specifications highlighted an issue we could easily fix. That alone pays for the monthly subscription!”
~D. Lauver, BRiC Partnership

“Wow, that is responsive! Ask for a feature and it is developed and available in just days.”
~E. Collins, TVA Architects

“I found VisiSpecs to be very powerful and useful and therefore, shared what I learned with my students as they learn more about the value of coordinated designs.”
~G. Chen, University of Strathclyde

"I love VisiSpecs! It’s proof what can happen when you listen to customer’s needs.”
~M Malone, TVA Architects

“The VisiSpecs learning curve was very short since VisiWord is an Add-In to Microsoft Word. For a small company, this helps me focus on the project quality instead of fumbling with a new editor.”
~F. Varela, Architectural Design Studio, LLC

“Installing VisiSpecs, importing my master documents, creating my first project, inserting and editing documents were “excellent” for me. Already onto my second, third, and fourth projects! Learning the software is easy. The support team is great and open to suggestions.”
~ S. Bliss, CSI, CCS, CCCA, SCIP, LEED

“I must say it looks like you guys have done a fantastic job with VisiSpecs! It has what specifiers need, it is tight, well-organized, and clean.”
~ Anonymous Professional Specifier, CSI, CCS, SCIP

“The VisiSpecs support team’s level of service has been unparalleled vs other vendors technical support.”
~ Client Internal IT Member
