    In my business it's essential to track my time, I have to keep my clients and my employees happy, and my employees need to be paid on time. Backlsh is the software that I use to track my time. I can see how long I spend on projects and bill my clients for all of my time. I can use this software to track my employees' hours and make sure I stay on budget. There are so many benefits to this software, if you need to track time, this is the tool for you.

    I think EPM Live might be the right solution for a much smaller company, who does mainly business to business material sales. As a software company with a ramped subscription model and heavy use of Salesforce, it was not well suited to our business.

    • This is a solid product. I do not have any suggested changes based on our experience. Cannot understand why there are any negative reviews here. The reviewer(s) must not have given the product a fair chance.

    The product is just not fitting our needs so we are looking at other alternatives. The system has gone down 3 times in the last 6 months and was down for at least half a day, timesheets have duplicate tasks, and it takes too long to save and submit. When trying to process updates it randomly changes our dates so we have to go back and fix them, sometimes tasks are lost and the system is just very confusing and hard to manipulate

    EPM was easier to use, with better and simpler UI. The product was also a great combination of price and functionality compared to other tools
