The built-in references and content are super helpful, and it’s quick to put sections together without much effort. It also makes it easier to coordinate across different disciplines, which is a big plus. The included products and manufacturers are great too—even if they don’t always fit every project perfectly, they’re a solid starting point and definitely better than starting from scratch. > > **Cons**: Glitches with table of contents section; Content is somewhat limited for specialty systems/products. > > Fantastic. The platform has helped improve my spec writing and coordination. The master features are excellent tools. ----- ### "Nice spec writing software" — 4.0/5 > **Lan** | *1 April 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Complete specification sections and relatively easy to use, if you know the materials being used. I'd say not for someone that doesn't know the products. > > **Cons**: Inconsistency between sections, such as spelling, grammar, and formatting. Weirdness as never printing the end of section Odd Page for the last section in a project print. Allowing the manufacturer to put their name in the section title. Big issue with that. Issue with updates not finishing, shows multiple pending but unable to complete. The updates can be extremely tedious for existing Office Templates. You have to transfer any changes to a new file or view each line item change to make sure it doesn't write over something included in the Template section. > > Good specification program, could be better. Haven't tried the Revit coordination yet. That could be a game changer. ----- ### "Laura's Review" — 3.0/5 > **Laura** | *24 June 2025* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's great to have the ability to bulk format and keep master specs; linking throughout and overall speediness as compared to Speclink-E is a big improvement. > > **Cons**: The header/footer function is a big downgrade from how it was in Speclink-E. Lately there are bugs with the software missing edits, missing choices, causing errors and typos that are not user-error. Tables are also a downgrade from Speclink-E. No ability to bulk print all-text drafts. > > Overall it's good, but every now and then it really lags and I'm constantly needing to refresh the page to try to get it to speed up. As mentioned above, the formatting abilities could really use work to bring it back up to Speclink-E quality and customization. Obviously, Speclink is much better than Word documents or otherwise, but it still causes headaches. ----- ### "Breckenridge Group Architects" — 4.0/5 > **Richard** | *1 April 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ability to review questions and options, comparing them against a defined direction, as well as the links to manufacturers' information, when necessary. > > **Cons**: Moving back and forth between sections can be tedious - it's not possible to leave one section open to compare something against another section without the first one closing. > > Not having used a similar product before, it took a while to learn the nuances. Accessing the 'help' videos and notes has been extremely valuable and when issues arose that couldn't be resolved easily the support staff has been very accommodating and timely. ----- ### "Efficient, Useful Tool for Specifications\!" — 5.0/5 > **Katrina** | *1 April 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our company appreciates the wide variety of spec sections readily available, the constant updates to reference standards, manufacturers, etc., and the use friendly interface. > > **Cons**: There is a learning curve for new users, but most catch on quickly. Sometimes the software doesn't save for some reason. > > Overall, our company utilizes RIB SpecLink almost daily and it has become a very useful tool in our office. We would definitely recommend to others in our industry\! ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2052440/speclink-1?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/2052440/speclink-1) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
