Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Well Big Time definately stands out as a leading Professional Services Automation (PSA) software, offering critical advantages for businesses: >Effortless Time and Expense Management >Resource Optimization >Seamless Accounting Integration In addition to these advantages, BigTime's user-friendly design and intuitive timers set it apart from competitors. For businesses valuing comprehensive reporting, BigTime offers a rich source of data to identify growth opportunities and drive success.
  • BigTime offers a comprehensive and user-friendly platform for time tracking and project management.
  • One thing I like about BigTime is the ease of utilization. I was able to navigate the entire interface on my first day. After a few weeks - I could tutor the rest of my colleagues and other workmates at our organization.
  • BigTime has proven to be an invaluable asset to our organization. The software's time and billing features are top-notch, delivering a streamlined and intuitive user experience. The ability to effortlessly track project progress and manage our team's hours has resulted in a significant increase in our overall productivity. The expense tracking feature is also a standout, as it offers a robust platform for submitting and approving expenses.
  • - BigTime excels in providing extensive time tracking capabilities, allowing users to accurately record and monitor their time spent on tasks. - Customizable reporting and analytics - Integration and Compatibility. BigTime integrates well with various popular business tools and platforms. - Scalability and flexibility. It can adapt to changing business requirements.

Cons

  • Well Overall BigTime a healthy platform but sometimes when I Try to make some changes to our invoice format is sometimes tricky, but the support we receive from the staff has always been great and made things work the way we would like them to. And also I frequently faced trouble adding new jobs into Big Time from Quickbooks and it does require manual adjustments every time.
  • The pricing structure can be a bit steep for small businesses or freelancers.
  • The only issue I've had as a BigTime user and my organization's Chief Financial Officer is the pricing that they offer. For most organizations, it can be pricey - and they do not offer a free trial.
  • There's a bit of a learning curve when first getting started with BigTime, but the company offers plenty of resources to get you up to speed. The reporting capabilities could be a bit more customizable, but this is a minor concern when compared to the wealth of benefits the software provides.
  • Some users may find the process of configuring these customizations to be complex or time-consuming. Simplifying the customization process and providing more intuitive tools for users to personalize their experience would enhance the software's flexibility.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The due date driven nature ensures our team is focused on getting work done for clients. Having almost everything we need in one tool means we don't have to manage multiple platforms for things like time tracking or resource management. The resource and workload planning tools are key to ensuring we have the resources to support tour clients. There have been very few outages of the platform, which makes it reliable.
  • Teamwork is built for agencies that value time. Time tracking is woven through the entire system allowing agencies to plan, use, and measure time. And for agencies time is $$. Budgeting tools are flexible and you can set budgets by time, all hours, billable hours, and retainers (and fixed budgets are coming soon). This feature is great for helping workers stay on track to budgets at a glance. Client collaboration is excellent. Adding clients is free and they can gain access to as much or as little information as you choose. The project management portions are intuitive with all the foundational elements you need to organize workloads, projects, and individual tasks. The mobile app is optimized for communications that allow project team members to keep information flowing no matter where they are. The company is very receptive to community feedback.
  • Teamwork is nimble. It enables users of all types to visualize work in a number of different ways. From boards, to lists, to tables, to "My Work", users can structure what requires their focus in a way that suits them best. Every platform requires diligence to make its use, well, useful. Teamwork makes use... easy... intuitive... productive.
  • The Teamwork user interface is very responsive. Although there is some learning curve and when you learn everything it performs superbly well. Its dashboard contains a detailed project overview. Switching between different projects is easy.
  • Teamwork is for us a tool created with the exclusivity of fulfilling each commercial purpose in a transparent and responsible manner, promoting teamwork, and delicately drawing a route with which we have been able to work constantly as planned. One of the important things is time management, the evaluation of billable hours and that the time invested in work performance has real value. The assignment of tasks and the planning of these helps us to maintain an order on the delivery of projects in a timely manner, making successive progress, in addition, the creation of subtasks allows us to break down tasks and do things with much more detail. The ease of using the platform has allowed us to integrate the entire work team very well, we adapt quickly and appropriate Teamwork in our daily work without problems. The methodology to keep the team connected and active by working collaboratively that Teamwork offers is totally innovative, through comments and exchanges of ideas it has allowed us to advance by improving aspects, doing things in an integral way.

Cons

  • Reporting is improving but still limited. Customer support can be inconsistent in resolving issues. It can be cumbersome for end-users.
  • Reporting in general is lacking but I am hearing this is getting a lot of attention right now. Data views are great but need a little more finesse with sorting and collapsing abilities. I also wish 3rd party chat systems could integrate better. Their own chat system seems to work great and we would use that with clients if it was free and included in the base cost. Spaces should be a part of projects and not and independent product.
  • There isn't anything to dislike. Are there areas that can be improved? Sure. I would love some configurability to the project dashboard.
  • There is some learning curve on Teamwork platform.
  • Although Teamwork undoubtedly presents great characteristics that have allowed us to perform within the commercial management in the realization of different projects for the correct fulfillment of these, but, on the other hand, it presents gaps where I think more development is needed to exploit its potential to the maximum. , the updates have been more specific in improving different aspects of interface and quality in their reports, where the interface has aspects that are not very precise or intuitive, on the other hand, the reports, on the other hand, need more detail in the presentation of the data, That the reports have an optimal presentation is vital so that our work can be updated and maintain an adequate performance analysis. We agree that the updates would allow us to focus on appropriate improvements, however, adapting a suitable schedule for this would allow us to prevent our work within the platform so as not to lose our progress due to these updates that appear out of nowhere, a simple notice would give us more convenience in our workflow.
