### 1/5 — Terrible performance

*2026-01-01, version 3.6.0*

Very glitchy and slow and missing critical info required, do not recommend at all.

### 1/5 — Poor upgrade

*2025-06-03, version 3.5.6*

I wish I didn’t download this version.  The old one worked and This one crashes constantly.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2025-05-30, version 3.5.5*

After years of promising a massive upgrade on their mobile 3 app, it’s been nothing but a disappointment and let down. They’ve had several updates over the last couple of weeks since the launch, it is currently unusable, will not sync work orders to even start the inspection, and IF a you are able to get to that, the push sync fails every time, so you have to upload all of your photos on the back end and sort it out one at a time.

### 1/5 — Software awful

*2025-05-29, version 3.5.5*

I concur completely with all of the latest negative reviews in regards to the new update/new software. Carson Dunlop/horizon get these issues fixed before inspectors start to look elsewhere for new software. I have been a customer for 12+ years, this is the worst Your program/app has ever worked.

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2025-05-28, version 3.5.5*

Poorly designed. Not tested. So many glitches and issues and freezing problems. Just an awful app.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2025-05-17, version 3.5.3*

Since their 2025 update, this app has been nothing but problems. Instead of streamlining my inspections and reports, it has only added work for me, often having to completely redo entire inspections that were lost by the app or that would not sync.

### 1/5 — Terrible mobile app

*2025-05-17, version 3.5.3*

The mobile app has been a nightmare with each update being worse than the last. They have taken so long to acknowledge every time we have brought it their attention and you can see that so many users are reporting it. I’m not sure what is going on with them as a company but they have really been dropping the ball.

### 1/5 — To many problems to list

*2025-05-16, version 3.5.3*

The software is failing to sync the data from my inspection. I have to access to work on my report. I emailed and sent chats during their posted support hours and nothing. I have 1 inspection I can complete and 4 inspections coming up with no software. If you want to look unprofessional look no further.

### 1/5 — Time To Fix These Issues

*2025-05-03, version 3.5.0*

Horizon, it’s time to get a team or hire someone to fix all these glitches. It is slowing down production, causing stress, and losing business. This new update is even worse than the last and having a whole week of issues (lost pictures, deleted recommendations, and VERY slow syncs and failures) and not having a solution is unacceptable. I called this week and still no fix. You will run your company into the ground if you do not get this fixed.

### 1/5 — Do not download update!

*2025-05-01, version 3.5.0*

Do not download the update! Having nothing but issues!
