## Reviews

### "Good overall, but still a few bugs." — 4.0/5

> **Stacy** | *1 April 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fairly easy to use and I like the team comment feature.  It has worked well for one spec I wrote.  A read me function screen for linked team members would be helpful so they know how the program works and they do not need to comment on every line in the spec, even the ones that are not selected.
> 
> **Cons**: Export and Print features are a little rough and importing sections has limitations that are not fully explained, including features that do not work unless the file is "named correctly" but this is not explained.
> 
> Works fairly well.  I like the online access, but there is significant lag.  This may be due to my personal connection, but downloading the section to work on it should solve this problem.  I was clicking on things, and nothing would happen, so I click it again, and it was a problem.  It slowed editing significantly.

### "Brew me another cup to top off my morning with SpecLink\!" — 5.0/5

> **Lori Reynolds** | *1 April 2026* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease at which valued information is literally at our fingertips. Straight-forward, no complicated means by which to obtain this information. Quick and genuinely helpful customer service. Always makes our day\!
> 
> **Cons**: All the "likes" are in my PROS bucket\! I guess it would have to be the harsh reality that with RIB SpecLink we don't have the benefits as with a Project Lead Service, which really would be the icing on the cake\!
> 
> Very positive experience.  We have always felt that RIB had OUR interests first. The reporting is super easy and relevant. Makes for a great presentation to our teams.

### "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.

### "Don't Wait - Get SpecLink Now\!" — 5.0/5

> **Gregory** | *1 April 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has allowed our firm to abandon the outdated, cumbersome, and risky process of "leapfrogging" word processor spec documents from one project to the next. Critical content is being updated constantly, so we don't miss out on the latest industry trends and changes.
> 
> **Cons**: There's very little to "not like" but the learning curve can be steep and sometimes overwhelming for new users. That settles down with repetition and using the fantastic help documentation.
> 
> The product itself, training staff, and technical support team are outstanding. I highly recommend ditching your old ways of writing specs and switching to SpecLink.

### "RIB Speclink-Collaboration" — 4.0/5

> **Brandon** | *1 April 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Team Collaboration is a great feature and using the comments function allows you to track the comments or questions with ease.
> 
> **Cons**: the ease of creating project types with specific standards. &#10;lack of detail with the 3D model being linked in.&#10;lack of editing for cover sheets.
> 
> overall I have been happy. We have been using this for a year and we are constantly looking to make improvements for our office standards to make them easier to use.
