Great product fro expense and time tracking, and way more

Reviewed on 12/01/2024

Pros

I have been using BQE Software for almost 4 years now. I have been reguarly logging hours and expenses as part of my daily work. I really love the app version in which I can snap a picture on the go from my receipt and toss the receipt away immediatelly. It has saved me tons of time of collecting receipts and then balancing my credit card account.
Tracking billable hours is also pretty easy and there are couple of options to do so for each personality from using project timers that you can play and pause to straight old-fashined type of plug-in. Overall, I am very happy of this software.

Cons

I like all features I have to use for my work.

BQE Core was easy to transition to with very little complications. It's features are very flexible and work. I learn more about it's capabilities every week.

Pros

BQE Core is very flexible in how you can allow employees to track their time and decide if it is billable or not.

Cons

It has many features that we do not use but I can see how other companies would appreciate the additional functions.

Great Program

Reviewed on 05/08/2024

Pros

I like how straightforward the software is. It's very easy to navigate.

Cons

I wish it was better at keeping things the way I left them. For example, I'll compress all drop downs on the timecard so that it is easier to read but when I log back in the next time, they are all expanded again.

Overall my experience with BQE CORE Suite is extremely positive. I rarely encounter any issues.

Pros

The dashboard is extremely useful as it provides a snapshot of all the information important to me (e.g. performance, PTO balance etc.).

Cons

At times when using the mobile app, I am unable to see narratives for time entries. This is usually rectified by logging out and back in again however, this can be inconvenient.
