Avaza vs. BigTime Software

We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.

I believe it is well suited for our industry! We are professional services consulting firm and we need this! However if there is a smaller company who does not need to track these items, then they should not use this big of a platform

• It switches between Kanban view, List view, and Gantt charts which fits varying preferences!
• It helps us work smart by creating dependencies and linking tasks to calendars
• It has a clean, intuitive dashboard that's very easy to navigate

• I like the functionality of being able to make payments electronically and the amount of banks and payment methods that are available.
• Another very useful feature of this tool is that the system allows to set a parameter to perform automatic invoices.
• I also really like the amount of templates that this tool has. Since it allows us to make customizable reports to our clients.

• The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be.

• For some types of projects, we are unable to use BigTime's invoicing feature. It would be nice if we could further customize invoices to fit our needs. We still have to use Quickbooks to complete certain invoices.
• Being able to create Purchase Orders in BigTime would be extremely useful to us. We currently use Quickbooks for this.

Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

Staff adapted to the new timesheets immediately. The invoice platform is nice and tracking WIP is great! Color backgrounds still need work. The new vibrant mode is OK. still trying it out.

BigTime is available 99% of the time. At times there are bugs, but most are resolved quickly

have not noticed a slow integration issue using QBO

They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.

The support is amazing! They are always available through the chat interface in the program. Each support person has fully answered my questions the first time. I have had a positive experience with each inquiry. It is very important to me that I am able to get instant access to help so that I can make the most of the software and all of its capabilities.

Monte and Tyler have been helpful with report assistance I called on recently

Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.

I liked the client management, but it didn't do time tracking, billing or syncing with quickbooks. It was too robust for my needs. I tried it for the client management and thought I might use it along with bigtime, but it was too cumbersome and would involve too much double entry. And it didn't track time or bill which are necessary functions

Incentivized

The product is useful for faster billing and efficient timesheet logs. I do like the report features however there are many options and can be overwhelming for the user. It is most helpful to set up reports speaking to an agent to ensure the right fields are set, etc.

• Avaza has made it easier to see how long I spend on certain types of projects and where I could be spending more time.

• Before BigTime, we were using Excel to track everything, creating invoices, and run reports. Getting on BigTime has saved us tons of time and effort which equates to dollars saved on labor.
• From a legal standpoint, BigTime has allowed us to be organized and prepared in the event we would need to present financial details to anyone.
