Software Compatibility

Supported Editions

The Integration by Procore supports these US editions of Viewpoint® Spectrum®:

  • Viewpoint® Spectrum® 2022 R3, 2023 R1, 2023 R2, 2024 R1
  • Cloud Version (self-hosted or hosted by Viewpoint)

*Procore's validation of Viewpoint® Spectrum® version 2024 R1 is now complete.  

WHen do supported versions change?

When a new version of Viewpoint® Spectrum® is released, Procore begins the process of validating the new version for compatibility with the integration. Validation will typically be completed within 2 months of the date a new version is released.

Once a new version has been validated, and is noted as supported by the integration with Procore, support for the oldest previously supported version will be discontinued. For example, following the release and validation of Viewpoint® Spectrum® version 2022R2, version 2021R1 will no longer be supported for use with the integration.
