### "Project Management Software +"

December 29, 2020

4.0

Overall, we have had a very positive experience working with the BigTime team, and the software itself. All of our questions and concerns have been addressed as quickly as they arose.

Pros

BigTime is incredibly inexpensive and easy to get into compared to competing software. If you have a dedicated team, you could be implemented in as little as a month. The customer support has also been superb. I have really enjoyed working with the sales and implementation mangers. We decided on BigTime because we needed a Project Management software, and ended up with a slew of other features that has allowed us to cut out some other software subscriptions such as time tracking software.

Cons

The only thing I can say we really dislike about BigTime is not having a "clock-in, clock-out" function. Meaning the software does not record the time of day you start and end. Overall, the time tracking portion does not seem as detailed as Tsheets, our previous time tracking software.

Reason for choosing BigTime

Mostly the cost and implementation timeline (and it had all of the features we were looking for of course). We knew if this was a product we weren't happy with, we could just switch after a year and not lose out on too much money spent on implementation. You can even pay month to month so there is essentially no commitment.

### "Employee log and time allocation tracker"

March 23, 2018

5.0

It allows our company to see if we are properly allocation our resources to all our clients. We also are able to detect if we are over staffing our projects.

Pros

We use Big Time to properly track how much time each employee have devoted to a certain project on a daily basis. In this method, we know how we can bill our clients, and how we can properly allocate our resources.

Cons

An error may occur sometimes when submit your time logs. It sometime duplicates the times you have worked on a certain task. The workaround is that you have to make sure that your total time is equivalent to the actual time you have worked. Nonetheless, the admins can clear the incorrect entries if you have submitted it by error.

### "Great support!"

January 26, 2022

5.0

Pros

On the occassions when I have needed to contact support, I have always received prompt, accurate solutions. Today's response was from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]

Cons

Product is generically designed for a number of different service companies - so customization is necessary. BigTime doesn't have a sample set up for ssmall CPA firms

Reason for choosing BigTime

I chose BigTime due to their sync ability with Intuit products - QuickBooks & Lacerte

### "I couldn't be happier with BigTime"

March 16, 2022

5.0

BigTime is saving me many hours of unbillable time spent wrestling with timesheets, invoices, contractor bills, cost analysis, project planning and monitoring, and processing payments. By reducing my unbillable time, BigTime allows me to log more billable hours or spend more time with my family, as I choose.

Pros

The time tracking, invoicing, billing, and payment functions work together seamlessly; the program syncs easily with QuickBooks desktop or online; the project planning functions are very helpful, and the onboarding and customer support team is outstanding (Thanks, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\]!)

Cons

So far, I am having no trouble with BigTime.

### "Project Management/Budgeting"

February 26, 2019

3.0

As someone who considers themselves tech savy, I am having issues with this software creating more issues than being helpful. The webinars should incorporate more consumer questions or feedback, especially if there are common themes with user questions or issues.

Pros

BigTime has the potential to be very user friendly, however, there is a learning process. Not everything is the same. For example, when I run one budget report, submitted time is not included, while in another report it is.

Cons

The data does not always auto populate and the software should be able to generate numbers and percents on its own... I should not have to go in and manually input % complete, it should be done on it's on as the team moves forward within the project.

Robyn, Thanks for leaving this review and letting us know about your struggles and concerns. BigTime's flexibility does have it's downsides and often that comes into play in terms of the learning curve. However, we will have one of our Success Team reach out to you directly and help with these specific issues. In the meantime, definitely take a look at our Knowledge Base (http://kb.bigtime.net/), which has hundreds of articles on things like custom reporting (http://kb.bigtime.net/using-bigtime/using-reports/creating-your-own-reports-in-bigtime/creating-custom-reports/) and creating % complete invoices (http://kb.bigtime.net/using-bigtime/invoicing/creating-draft-invoices/creating-percent-complete-invoices/) which auto populates task percentages for you. We hope this helps, and keep an eye out for an email from one of our Success Team members. Thanks again, BigTime's Customer Success Team

### "I still recommend this product after having using it for 10 years"

May 18, 2018

5.0

Time tracking, expense reports and invoicing all comes out of the same information that is entered in one place: BigTime We use QuickBooks for accounting and the BigTime information flows easily into QuickBooks at a nightly synchronization.

Pros

The ease of use and setup, management and flawless connection to QuickBooks to post information and allow us to invoice clients, print and pay expense reports and collect project information in an easy to use project database. Time tracking is a breeze and built in reports allow us to view important information with a few clicks.

Cons

That the BigTime monitor is not a service but it requires an account to be always signed in in order to run. I hope it can be converted to a service that we don't have to worry about.

May 25, 2018

Mary, Thanks so much for your review - hearing good things from our customers always makes us happy, but hearing good things from our customers from the past decade really makes our year! :) We're very pleased to hear that we're doing things well in your book and we're going to try really hard to keep doing so and maintain your positive impression of us. Regarding the Sync Manager, it's actually the security requirements of Quickbooks that prevents us from creating a stand-alone service, so as long as Quickbooks keeps their security as is, then our hands are unfortunately tied. Please do let us know if there's anything else we can do for you, or if we can assist in anyway! The BigTime Customer Success Team

Pros

The integration with Quickbooks makes our lives much easier. The support staff is really good too - they always get back in a timely manner. The integrated task timer is a nice feature as well.

Cons

There isn't anything I really dislike about BigTime, but there are some features I wish it had (like automatically creating tasks in new projects)

Regarding the auto-creation of tasks, please feel free to send us a Feature Request for that! You can always submit a Feature Request to support@bigtime.net to potentially add a new feature. Please make sure you put "FeatureRequest" in the subject line of the email when you send it and provide as much detail in the body of the email as possible so that we're sure that we implement the feature properly.

July 20, 2023

Invoicing and interfacing with QuickBooks is a huge plus for my business

Pros

It is a full featured package with many tools I am not using since they don't apply to my business

Cons

Some features are not intuitive which leads to extra time to complete or change something

I love the software for invoicing.

Pros

I think the software is very user friendly, however, there are parts of it that I have never used and not sure how to use it.

Cons

I think the software is very easy to use, but I would like to know more about how to use the features I don't use.

### "project budgeting and time tracking dashboard feature is very good"

April 6, 2023

5.0

very good 9/5 out of 10. Great customer support that is United States based.

Pros

BigTime has a great dashboard that enables me to see multiple jobs at once and see how our hours are tracking with our budgets. And it has a good hours / time tracking input format that is fairly simple and quick. It benefits our architecture office. \[sensitive content hidden\] helped us figure out some bulk commands that were a great time saver. Excellent and responsive customer support.

Cons

there are a few kinks integrating with quickbooks, but they are minor in the overall scheme of things

### "Gran software para avanzar en tu negocio."

August 20, 2023

4.0

En general, me parece una gran herramienta si lo que quieres es facilitar y agilizar tu trabajo, por todas las funciones que ofrece, creo que es una de las mejores opciones a utilizar.

Pros

Lo que más me ha gustado es su capacidad para facilitar y gestionar tu trabajo. Tiene muchas funciones que hacen posible todo lo que imaginas, desde gestionar los proyectos, realizar operaciones...

Cons

Lo único a mejorar quizás sea el diseño del propio software, para que así sea un poco más dinámico en las gestión de proyectos.

### "Big Time Migration"

September 6, 2018

5.0

We were switching from an antiquated time & expense software that had reduced technical support to the point where we were almost at a standstill. Big Time was easy to use and set up and we had great support from our account executive from the initial demo all the way through our trial period to quickly getting us set up. Our office has breathed a sigh of relief at having a more nimble and intuitive product to record time & expenses. We were able to quickly set up clients due to the ease of integration from Quickbooks. We love the ability to change reports easily based on what is useful for us and to be able to adjust invoices fairly easily based on what each of our clients like to see. Our staff training has so far been quite minimal as it was easily picked up by everyone. We are in the early stages so we might run into problems later but so far so good. This program also has the flexibility to help us figure payroll overtime with reports rather than having to wrangle the information from an excel type exercise. We have not used this software for any project management type of viewpoint and there are probably better programs out there if that is your mail goal for roughly the same price. However, if you are looking for a time & expense recording, payroll and invoicing program -- especially if Quickbooks integration is also a pro -- then this is a good bet. We have not had to go back to technical support very often as the program is very easy to pick up on. There are lots of options for invoicing looks as well so you will be able to find something that will work for you. There are some quirks or shortcuts that the program uses so please use the set up team and don't be afraid to ask questions if you don't understand because they are very responsive.

Pros

Ease of Use for time entry and set up Technical Support Mobile App Quickbooks integration for both online and Enterprise version

Cons

There are some quirks to the product as far as knowing where to click to make changes. Minor issue really and is covered by support calls pretty quickly.

November 17, 2022

Love their customer service. Love that they are one of the only programs that syncs into QuickBooks Desktop.

Pros

Here's what I'll say, we switched out of this product because it wasn't the right fit for us. However, my biggest client uses it and I manage it and I love them. Excellent customer service. A couple kinks here and there but overall if you use right it works great.

Cons

I felt that the invoicing process was a little clunky. I wish I could edit the WIP easier.

Reason for choosing BigTime

We needed something with a stronger project management.

### "I have not had a good experience with Big Time"

February 26, 2018

2.0

Pros

It's quick and snappy to use for the most part. It doesn't take me long to fill out my time sheets.

Cons

The interface is antiquated and clunky. When submitting time sheets is asynchronous, but it doesn't communicate well if something is rejected so I often think I've submitted a timesheet only to find out later it has been rejected. From and end-user perspective it's hard to understand and use.

I have tried many solutions in the past and I found BT was the best fit for our organization. Very cost effective compared to other solutions. It requires little time to produce reports and the engineers find the UI for entering time easy and fast.

Pros

Ability to easily add staff, create projects and budgets Report generation and ability to export reports to excel for pivot table analysis Fast online server responses

Cons

No ability to import project files from other applications, excel / MSProject Limited number of levels for sub-tasks

Reason for choosing BigTime
