    BusyBusy is well suited for organizations with multiple off site job locations which require tracking. Due to it's ability to setup a high volume of work locations as well as bread crumb tracking between home office and job site, I think it is best suited for the service industry including construction, plumbing, landscaping etc. It is less appropriate for organization with single office on site work

    Cons
    busybusy
    • the scheduling feature has room for improvement - the views are not condensed and cannot be viewed by all employee groups
    • during the time card review process - instead of a description - it would be nice to have a reason section when changing a time card
    • the geo fences around projects - I wish they could be linear

    • Syncing with QuickBooks could be a little better, only syncs to main customer and not projects.
    • Does not have the ability to be used in the field.
    • Cannot collect payment or invoice from the field, only office staff can do this which makes for a lot of missed money collection.

    Usability
    busybusy
    There are some upgrades and features that don’t work without a full delete (app) and reinstall and some users don’t remember their login details. Admin time spent. As well there are some edits that could be beneficial

    the switch feature and easy of use for the field employees, who are not all tech savvy, is why we chose busy busy. Other softwares only used a stop/go feature which we thought could be very confusing for employees who are just switching cost codes between jobs. Also integration was cleaner on busy busy

    Knowify does job costing which HouseCall Pro does not, it syncs with QuickBooks a little better than HouseCall Pro but does not allow our technicians to invoice from the field which is crucial.

    • Keeps good track of all bills and expenses.
    • It would be nice to be able to see a list of all bills and not have to look under each project/job.
    • Allows us to see if a job is headed south and quickly correct it.
