It can be confusing to some extent - one of our contractors, in this instance, had 2 profiles and was entering hours and expenses under the company name first instead of under his name.

The system is easy to configure, easy to use and the support has been amazing. We're very happy with the system.

This is a great mobile timesheet app. It tracks every hour spent on a project and helps to track everything that each person is doing.

Overall the experience with BigTime has been great. It will help us better manage our business.

The fact that the staff genuinely cares and believes in the product is what I like best.

I like the ease of use the most as well as the availability of the support team.

In our month of using BigTime, our experience has been wonderful. Our Customer Success Manager is AMAZING.

Great customer service and support. Very easy to implement and roll out.

Overall I have had a pretty positive experience with Bigtime and am optimistic that it will work out great for our company.

So far so good, we are already seeing an improvement in budget tracking.

We just started using the software and are impressed with the support staff at Big Time. They are helping us to set up the program and customize it for our needs.

Also, we have been very impressed with the speed of the system and the design of the user interface.

This makes it difficult to integrate BT invoicing directly into QB data. A problem made even more difficult given that all of our projects to date have been invoiced from QB.

Big huge thank you to the support staff for helping me yesterday with my sync agent for QuickBooks. He was very professional and patient.

Great features that meet our companies needs. Integration with Quickbooks works perfectly.

The service has been great. So far we're very pleased with the process.

I enjoy the ease of the software and the accessibility for our employees.

I love the ease at which you can make adjustments to submitted timesheets or expense reports. The software is very intuitive.

But Sylvia, who guided us through the Onboarding process, was able to successfully show us all the capabilities that BigTime has to offer so far.

It is good to see that bigtime integrates so directly with the quickbooks platform, since this way it works better with invoices and workflow management tools.

Ability to easily add staff, create projects and budgets. Report generation and ability to export reports to excel for pivot table analysis.

I like how clean it is - our bugdets and hours are all tracked neatly now. Before it was all done manually, with the help of a spreadsheet.

I have tried many solutions in the past and I found BT was the best fit for our organization.

Overall the fact that everything's integrated into one platform makes Bigtime a great timesaver for any organization.

We are in the process of implementing the software, but the training and support we have had so far has been fantastic. The software seems to be intuitive and is very user-friendly.

I like the ease of the integration between BigTime and Quickbooks.

Its inability to perform some task that I am used to which is to be expected in a switch form one system to the next.

My overall experience with BigTime has been great, the software is easy to use and navigate, and the customer support has been fast and helpful in answering any questions I have had.

There are a couple of features that are missing pertaining specifically to my company.

Its a software that is easy to navigate and the cost sweeps me off my feet.I recommend it for anyone.

We did it backwards which cost us about three weeks of loss time.

The customer service is shockingly amazing. I requested one payment refund after not using it in over a year and it was super quick and easy.

Great presentation aesthetics. Great tips on use and preparation.

I am very happy with this product and highly recommend to everyone to give it a try.

Live Plan was perfect for my needs - it helped me shape my strategic plan and think through my start-up capital requirements and revenue projections.

Customer service is excellent, I was able to reach someone immediately when calling.

The templates were also very helpful to show me what a plan should look like.

Integration with my online accounting software was pretty helpful too.

I recommended it it to several prospective bakery owners as a well-priced tool to start turning their dream into a viable business reality.

Easy to use online and has a very good technical support. It is great that they keep your files or give files to you if you decided to cancel the account, that made me trust LivePlan more.

I got stuck at the beginning a little bit with the various summaries.

I really like all the integrated charts and graphs to help me clearly envision the current status of my financial goals.

I really appreciated how easy it was to project the impact of the decisions we were considering. It made planning my business's growth intuitive.

I really like this software because of the features it has and it's price.

It was a great experience with LivePlan. They have a clean and attractive user interface with helpful guidance.

I loved that it gave me some industry benchmarks and suggested budget items (like employee payroll liabilities) I hadn't thought of.

It made using the review feature (to compare projections with performance) more difficult to use.

Warning, If you sign in you will not be able to cancel your service.

Unfortunately it is limited to that time frame which disappoints because other than the time frame, just about everything else is customizable.

Live Plan gives you a good look, at the viability, of a business opportunity. I have used it several different time to help make sound business decisions.

This software was amazing for my initial business planning phase.

Business plan preparation can be overwhelming; however, LivePlan made it easy to build and update our vision and communicate with relative ease.

Overall, i was able to put my business idea on paper and see exactly what the budget and funding looks like. It really helped me decide whether or not the business idea was worth pursuing.

I like the ease of use, support and the step by step process.

The experience was productive and the software is great.

Very useful in planning, pitching and eventually starting my business. It supported every element from ideation through to detailed p&l & balance sheet for presentation to investors.
