Overall Satisfaction with BQE CORE
We use BQE Core as our Project Management, Time / Expense Tracker, Billing / Invoicing, and for Accounting. Every new project we receive to work on, goes into Core. We have been expanding our uses into dashboard usage to share with our team, Monthly automatically reporting, and KPI tracking. We are able to understand our financial metrics as well as our means of cash with reconciling from our bank as well. The only thing we aren't using or probably don't have a huge interest in yet is the CRM / Sales tools. We have been told multiple times by CORE employees, for a small company, we are pretty robust in our use of CORE and the project management tools. Something incredibly important to a small design studio is making sure we are managing the resources given to us effectively on the said project. Keeping budgets, allocations of hours, and our expenses in line for our projects is so key. Being able to filter through projects and understand how we are doing from a macro scale to a micro scale of a certain phase has been a big focus as of late.
