Secret weapon for capitalisation and R&D

My team have described it as "living in the future". Our internal customers who use the data are shocked at how willing everyone is to enter time daily, something they never thought would happen. It's a huge step forward for us and we can see the next several horizons that this tiny step helps unlock.

PROS

The fact that Nikabot works in slack means we didn't need to onboard people to new software they could use it where they already were. So easy to get started and get going and all our data control issues have been solved!

CONS

As a tech company we would love an API so we could start doing more real time fancy things with the data!

Vendor Response

Hello Katherine, Thank you so much for your kind words! You'll certainly be happy to learn that we've made our open API available for all Nikabot users!

Great place to track team hours

Overall, this has been a great tool to help our organization organize and track employees time.

PROS

I like that you can organize all the projects into teams and it is easy to edit time as an admin.

CONS

Sometimes I look up a project and think the hours are less than they are because you have to change the calendar range first.

Vendor Response

Hey Krista, It was great reading your review of Nikabot, thank you! I'm so glad Nikabot was able to help you and your team organize your time! I also wanted you to know that your suggestion was taken into account and in our current Report Center, if you go to a project's page, you'll be able to see the total hours consumed! Hope that helps you and your team in the future!

Nikabot, the pros & cons

A fantastic platform for recording projects that has so much potential.

PROS

How easy it is to use! Although there are several UX issues, it was easy to figure out and sign on our teams. - The breakdown charts per role within a project is very helpful - The slack integration is perfect - Bulk editing for time off/projects is a winner for our teams so they don't need to enter daily. - Breakdown per hour for projects - Workday hour requirements - Completion reports

CONS

The UX side needs quite a bit of work & there are extensive bugs - Open API would be helpful -Import button for Team Member & Project Management - Reports from projects only show one work type - should allow the project to show as a whole with all work types included. - Tagging to be allowed in the note section. - Pagination is slow, most times doesn't load (Only loads the 'first page' stops at 20 Team Members, in alphabetical order) - When updating groups and roles, quite often the page times out - please contact me for error reports

Vendor Response

Hi Michelle, Thank you for your amazing feedback! I'm so glad Nikabot has been able to help your team! You'll be happy to know we've made our Open API available to our users, and solved our UI and slow navigation issues since your last review! And we're definitely taking into consideration your ideas when planning our next features!

A mixed bag

PROS

Good UI, generally stable, export feature is good.

Occassionally quite flakey, particularly the slack integration.

Great tool for lawyers using Slack

PROS

The reminder feature was a game changer for us. No more hours that are missed. We have been using it for over a year now and it has drastically reduced the exchange of excel sheets

CONS

The UI is a bit quirky and buggy at times

Vendor Response

Hello there, Thank you for your feedback! I'm really glad the Nikabot check-in feature has helped your team keep track of all your work hours! I hope our recent UI improvements have made your Nikabot experience more pleasant. Please let us know if you are still facing any issues!

Nikabot Review

The concept for collecting data is great, but the operation and function of this platform needs a lot of work.

PROS

The ability to view people who are working on a project as a whole.

CONS

Has so many technical problems that it has become a burden for the team to be able to input hours on their phones and through the website.

Vendor Response

Hi Daisy. Thank your for your feedback! We understand your concerns and share your frustration. In fact, we had some technical problems in the past that harmed Nikabot's performance but everything is already fixed now. Also, we're reviewing the entire product and working with all our customers to be sure nothing like this happens again. That way, please share with us your issues every time you have one! And if you have any other feedback, feel free to send it to us.

overlall positive apart from a few stability issues at times

PROS

The simplicity and ease of use is key for any time management tool

CONS

lag of tagging. In my view not being able to tag projects seriously limits the ability to get useful business intelignce out of the data

Vendor Response
