Customer Testimonials

We originally purchased a competitor's Software
Management solution but after many years of
implementation problems and reconverting several
times, we found it to be too cumbersome and
costly, and we were forced to make a change”
said Ray Jankelow, CFO, Tribute Communities.
“We were pleasantly surprised by how well HomeFront
Software was adaptable to our organization and
how great the people at HomeFront were in helping
us quickly migrate to it. HomeFront has
given us the tools to better manage our home
building business.”

HomeFront has become an integral part of
our organization. It touches everyone, whether
it's in the office, at the sales centre or in
the field. It has become the primary communication
tool that links us together and helps monitor
the progress of the company. With four
years under our belt, we are excited to be a
part of the evolution and growth of HomeFront
and its integration with Timberline, Service
and Warranty, Payables Desk and the Web.
This integration has provided process efficiencies
in many departments and eliminated the possibility
of costly errors that can occur with a manual
system.

HomeFront Sales has definitely improved our
ability to manage our building process. We needed
a central Sales system that could capitalize
on our existing Accounting, Estimating, Scheduling,
and Warranty data. HomeFront filled that last
piece of our systems puzzle, providing the bridge
so we could integrate data from all of our other
systems. Giving us the information we need to
make better informed business decisions.

With the way construction is now, never before
has communication and integration of information
between all departments been more critical.
The solution provided by HomeFront powered by
Sage Timberline has enabled us to achieve this.
From Front End Sales to After Sales Service/Warranty,
and all points in between; they have it covered.
Thank you for introducing our company to these
programs."

We switched from our current software system
to HomeFront. We feel that it is the best
integrated software system available to residential
builders. The service and support has
been excellent.”
