BQE Core

Overall Satisfaction with BQE CORE

We use BQE for project management as well as time tracking, timekeeping and time entries. Mainly, though, we use it for project management in the accounting department. It's a great program for being able to separate projects into individual tasks and bill accordingly. The interface is easy to use and quite intuitive.
  • The dashboard is clearly laid out and easy to use
  • the interface is customizable based on preference
  • keeping track of projects/tasks easily
  • Searching for a project can be difficult, and times out quickly
  • I'd appreciate more options in terms of how to search
  • There was an update to the platform which made it easier to use and addressed any other concerns
  • no negative returns
  • good for a startup or small business
  • a company will outgrow the program fairly quickly
Deltek Vision is far more advanced, more encompassing and offers more flexibility with what you want to do. However, it's also quite difficult to use, whereas BQE CORE is intuitive and user friendly. The trade off is worth it in some arenas but overall it's not suited for a larger fast paced company. Great for smaller companies.

This program is fantastic for keeping track of time spent on projects, time worked overall, and for project management. It's a good tool to use when performing accounting tasks, although I wouldn't recommend it next to anything liker QuickBooks. But as a basic time tracker it's tops. Enjoy using it!

BQE CORE Support

I have never needed to contact support for this product. Although it is suggested I skip this question if I have no applicable experience with it, I don't have the option to skip it. So I will instead attempt to get 50 words in this box as explanation for that.

Using BQE CORE

It's very easy to use and straightforward. Everything is laid out in an easy to use pattern and can be changed, somewhat, based on user preference. The options are limited but it's a pleasant experience using the product and I can perform the tasks I need to perform quickly and without any issues.
