"Efficient time tracking software"
What do you like best about BigTime?

The ease of use to enter timesheets and expenses is what I like most. This software also allows me to generate a variety of reports for productivty, utilization, and budgets. Many of the reports are customizable with just a few clicks. The online chat is also super helpful and responsive. Neil Keenan has been our Relationship Manager for the last year and half and has really partnered with us to get to know our business. He worked closely with me when I came onboard and has helped me customize the reports I needed and to troubleshoot as needed. Bigtime also intergrates well with Quickbooks.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

Training is necessary. Entering time is easy, but doing other things is not as intuitive and requires some training.

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

Time tracking - its important for us to capture hours.

"BigTime Implementation"
What do you like best about BigTime?

While we are still learning how to use BigTime and all its functionalities, I have liked how many things it can do. It appears that we will be able to keep track of all of our projects, payroll, and invoicing and automate a lot of our systems. The implementation went super well. Our Implementation Manager was very available and flexible as we sometimes had to change the schedule due to other work conflicts. AS well, she was able to go at our pace which was nice for sections that we had more questions.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

I wish there was a check-in and check-out component so that as an administrator, I could see when an employee started working and when they stopped working.

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

BigTime will allow us to accurately know how much time we spent on a project (using the Timer function). This will be big so that we can accurately know how much a project is costing us verses how much we are charging for it.

"12/11/2023 Project Syncing 8/08/2023Assistance starting with IQ for the first invoicing"
What do you like best about BigTime?

12/11/2023 We had a project that had a technical issue while syncing and working with Andres R., through Live Chat was a refreshing experience. Andres went above and beyond to discover the issue and resolve it! This was very much appreciated as i felt we randomly got the exact right person we needed to resolve the technical issue. 8/08/2023 I really appreciated that Montae H.was so very patient dealing with all my questions. I had multiple things I needed to clarify and needed help adjusting invoice templates before we could start monthly invoicing for the first time. Montae H. was dedicated to helping me with everything I needed, Montae H. reached out and reconnected when we lost connection and setup a Zoom session to be sure we had no misunderstandings. Montae stayed with me through multiple tests and guided me through the invoicing process so I would have a good understanding of the review process. I am very thankful to have encountered the needed help with someone knowledgable who was able to stay patient while resolving all my concerns.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

12/11/2023 This session with Live Chat, although took some time to get figured out, was very reassuing that we have a team of support available if needed. Thank you again Andres R.! 8/08/2023 The only thing i disliked about this experience is that we spent a long time getting all my concerns and things resolved.

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

12/11/2023 Having converted from BigTime Enterprise, we discovered a previous project that did not sync to QuickBooks during the conversion. We discovered this during invoicing and Andrew R. was able to successfully get it resolved. We have used BigTime Enterprise since 2011, this is our first experience with IQ.

"Option of dark mode"
What do you like best about BigTime?

Big thanks for the live chat button. Short wait time and quick answer for a small problem I've had. The dark mode option for viewing, works great for an overly bright office. Never would have found this without the live chat. Thanks Brittany Urrutia!!

Missing mailing label printing ability. Could use more editing ability for invoice style.

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Bigtime chat"
What do you like best about BigTime?

user-friendly, quick reports, sync tool with QB integrations looking forward to the scheduling and ghant chart features so fare so good with tracking WIP and keeping track of billables etc.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

invoice template settings - should have preview setting rather than going back and forth More options to select for settings and to include a feature to add email and site location on the invoice on top versus in notes on the bottom. gray scroll bar not easy to see submit button should be a pop up or on top easy to miss no bottom Need easier way to update change vendor invoice info when in invoicing (sometimes need tochange the amount and/or record actual hours)

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

faster invoicing, tracking AR and TS, WIP the ability to create various templates and add various activity codes, etc.

"Excellent Support"
What do you like best about BigTime?

We have used Bigtime for the past decade, it is easy to customize and the support is always excellent.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

I dont dislike anything about Bigtime, but the issues we have are issues we would have with any other similar service. There is a little bit of a learning curve from an admin standpoint but nothing that is over the top.

Bigtime makes it easy for us to keep on top of time spent on our engagements and includes the details of each entry.

"SO much convience"
What do you like best about BigTime?

WE use to do our expense reports and time sheets via excel as a smaller company, however we are growing. As a construction company, sometimes our project managers aren't the most tech savy. I love how user friendly the platform is.

What do you dislike about BigTime?

They offer the mobile app, however there are known glitches, and it has created a lot of issues with my employee's expense reports. It's better not to have until updated.

What problems is BigTime solving and how is that benefiting you?

Timesheets are much easier, Expense reporting, and most importantly, I can easly pull a report to know what my costs are for each of my job sites, for man hours, expenses or both.

We have a couple of business specific items we could still use, but we manage quite well as is.

Leah J. is best when it comes to technical issues I face with BigTime. She would solve my problems in minutes.
