BQE Core

Overall Satisfaction with BQE CORE

I use BQE CORE to enter my daily time spent working on projects for different clients. The system is used to report and track employees' time so that our company can invoice/bill our clients for the work performed. A feature that we are excited about using is the ability to enter available hours on specific activities for clients before entering our time to ensure that we do not bill for hours over what is available.
  • Tracks available time for each client
  • Organizes my time by project and activity
  • Allows me to report expenses
  • When I add time, the user functionality could be improved by removing the content bubble after entering the hours. It forces me to select "Done" again after I've already entered my hours and moved out of the cell and sort of follows my mouse around the screen.
  • Easier to bill/invoice clients with organized project time
  • Ability to add available hours before entering time so we don't go over our hours
  • Good user functionality for more accurate time keeping
I didn't take part in selecting BQE CORE; however, our CEO chose it because of its ability to help with invoicing and incorporating other software into the program such as Gantt charts. I like BQE CORE better than BillQuick because it is more user friendly and also displays the workflow at the bottom of the screen to know if my time is submitted or approved. BillQuick did not have this feature and usually required me to select submit more than once to ensure my time submitted.

Do you think BQE CORE delivers good value for the price?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of BQE CORE go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy BQE CORE again?

Yes

BQE CORE is great for reporting and tracking time specific to projects/clients. It organizes the projects well. I'm not sure if the site would be useful for companies that are only adding hours and not descriptions of daily time.
