Overall Satisfaction with Beebole

We use Beebole primary as time tracking and project
management software. Beebole allows us to collect data effectively which helps
us to control / forecast our project deliverables, support billing process and
as a result to take management decision on time. It allows us to have clear
tracking of spent hours per Employee or Contractor, Vendor within each
individual project, help us to set teams under the project, set deliveries, see
& control budgets (time spend, billing actual vs set budgets), collect cost
per project team member or individual, analyse project marginality. It helps us
to collect and control the cost of the resources, i.e. to plan our cost and
forecast our payments to our employees, vendors, or contractors.

Pros

  • Time Tracking
  • Project Budget control
  • Billing process
  • Cost control
  • Magin analisys

Cons

  • Some lack of administration options for user accesses
  • Single Standard cost alternative, for example, it would be nice to have at least two alternative at the same time (with overheads and not!)
  • Positive. Easy to control project budgets (in hours, in money)
  • Positive. Easy Billing process based on the data from the system
  • Positive. Easy to understand & analyse expenses per project
  • Negative. Not so easy to expand or limit acesses to the project data / or reporting
  • Negative. Having standard cost alternatives
It is subjective. Sometimes you need to experiment to understand some futures functionality or its activation.
  • Harvest
Functionality both system are +- the same, Harvest has some screen which looks to be more modern as web based, some modern screen for time tracking of the individuals (which can be more convenient) but the price is higher near in two times!

Do you think Beebole delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Beebole's feature set?

Yes

Did Beebole live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Beebole go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Beebole again?

Yes

It is not so complicated product (apps) but holding a perfect balance of the functionality and the cost of the subscription. The rest is too subjective (screens, inside search optimizations, etc.).

Using Beebole

100 - Developers and Project managers
1 - Basic project management knowledge.
  • Consider billability and profitability per employee, contractor, vendor in cases of the price / rate revisions!
  • Project cost improvements via change of the used resources
It has been proving its functionality since 2018!

Evaluating Beebole and Competitors

  • Cloud Solutions
  • Scalability
  • Ease of Use
Product based. Comparably good functional option for the price!
It is hard to say. I would pay attention to the price vs values and pay attention to the resource planning functionalities. I mean, if we are able to see not only facts predict nearest future or long term for the specific project but also wee our resource demand scenarios for the mixture of the projects with some time horizon!

Beebole Implementation

Change management was a big part of the implementation and was well-handled - Improved of transparency of the resources and the results!

Yes - I thought that it was a bug, but It was explained why it did not work as expected. It was related to main screen tracking report where you can not see public holidays signals overall for all your locations, but you can see them digging in the data.
When we struggled with users accesses, we needed a "limited administrator". The difference between a "limited" and full was to see a Standard cost value, the rest of the authorization was equal!
