Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Robust Software with lots of capabilities. One stop shop for billing payments and project management.
  • We are a little over four months in Core and the ease of use of Core has helped us understand the software quickly. We are really benefitting from invoicing and CRM features in Core. The customer service team is great and has helped us get acquainted with the product tremendously.
  • Integrated systems, CRM - Project Management - Billing to Financials. No need to transfer information from various systems to produce financial statements. Good, what I like is that the product continues to improve, especially on the accounting end. Adding the contract balance to time entry screen would be most beneficial to us. Importing data to CRM is another feature that would make things more efficient.
  • We were among the first few BQ customers who upgraded to Core, and we like the flexibility of data entry from anywhere using the browser and mobile phone. With Core, we also started using the built-in accounting, and it has helped us tremendously see the connection between project management, billing, and accounts payable. In addition to resources available in the Core help center, we do take full advantage of a quick and always available support team.
  • After upgrading from BillQuick to Core our billing department has been extremely happy with the move. We like the easy workflows in Core and this has helped us reduce the billing time greatly. Reporting in Core is easy too and with report scheduler we can now deliver reports through automation to our managers and clients.

Cons

  • Slow sluggish performance, downtime, slow support fixes, not user friendly, time consuming to use.
  • It is too early to say as we are still trying to learn the software.
  • It would be nice to see amount spent in time card to have a greater visibility in amount spent versus contract amount.
  • After our switch to Core accounting, we had some issues with bank reconciliation, and as always, BQE's helpful support team listened and solved the problem.
  • So far so good. Anything we experience that is not desirable is submitted to support staff. Monthly updates from Core have been very helpful.
