The App is pretty bad in usability and a real painpoint. The reminder block everything.

Free version fully equiped, super customer care, really nice brand identity.

I would have started with a mindmap in freemind, then cut and pasted into Trello, but it's one way - changes in Trello are then not reflected in Freemind.

Zenkit is very affordable with a sleek interface that is very intuitive. There is excellent documentation for its many uses as well as video tutorials and blogs that are invaluable to new users.

Customer support is outstanding. There are also a lot of nice features, such as cross-referencing and formulas that are very handy.

User-friendly, easy to navigate, scalable. Various useful functionalities.

Love the simplicity to use and the short and easy learning curve. Every functionality is placed and working kind of intuitively.

We were a big wunderlist user and stopped as soon as we got wind that Microsoft was probably going to kill it. We tried Trello and had been using Gqueues and always been using Slack.

Some lack of proper documentation which makes it difficult to understand at first.

One obstacle I see is that every time I rolled on a new team member, I had to explain them how to do things and what are the tricks.

The ease of setting up collections for different areas of my work and life, the clean and streamlined interface, the ability for multiple collections, and the ability to assign levels of priority.

I also like that the same data can be looked as a List, Kanban Card (which is how we use it most) to making mindmaps, Calendar and Table. That helps for planning as well as looking at history.

But that's probably just my taste. Apart from this, I couldn't really find anything I disliked.

A very clean and clearly outlined project management software, that has many great features, integrations with a lot of other systems and offline access as well as apps.

Flexible customization, functional,  inventive design, friendly and helpful support and a affordable pricing.

As a student,Zenkit has the ability to organize academic projects very easy and free.

There is a lot of flexibility. It does a great job of allowing you to look at your data in different ways (e.g,, sorting, filtering, groups).

I like the ease with which we can use this software.

It's the best balanced, feature-full yet easy to use app of it's class. Usability is awesome, the level of integration is awesome.

It an excellent software for our architectural firm and we so far we have received a great service. We use bqe for timekeeping and billing.

Practical, customizable, and good value for the money.

It makes my report process much cleaner and quicker. The customer service is great and whenever we need any assistance to resolve a issue i am having they come straight to my aide.

I have been using it only for a limited time, however some of the things that I dislike are its limitations. It's lack of flexibility could cause some minor hiccups in the process.

It's a steady process but all aspects are saving our company time and money. AR is easy to see and clients have fewer questions about projects.

Digital signatures on timesheets. Report specifically by client showing their average days to pay - Using the collections report is too tedious - this should be a canned report.

It has the essential features we need to manage project time and budgets. In general, it is a solid and reliable product.

In nutshell, we are at the stage of learning  this software. There is much to offer and the user has to learn to make the best use of Core.

Customer support is great, they are able to guide us and withing seconds to minutes we are able to validate the solution provided.

There is a slight input lag in the software that is a bit annoying.

Ease of use with excellent support. We extensively use it for easy to use time tracking and robust invoicing features.

BQE Core has many features, some of which we are still learning about and how they can benefit our team. The customer service is outstanding, as are the webinars in a variety of topics.

Anytime I need any help with the software and whenever I have contacted BQE custom support team they have been very helpful.

The BQE company has been very responsive to suggestions and is making steady improvements. It is nice to use software that gets better over time.

We like that there is a lot of control over how we set up our projects and the integration options available through Core.

I especially liked liked the Link to QuickBooks.

This custom report is a great tool for us… color coded – RED, showing when over budget (time or ‘not to exceed’ contract fee).

Training has been very supportive and useful. Support has been very helpful and quick to respond and follow-up.

In the project structure, a separate tool to move a phase up or down (rather than the grab and drop). The AR invoices to automatically sort to open status only (not all invoices).

The program was often slow and sluggish between screen changes (I have very fast ethernet connection 250mbps DL speed).

Tech support is the best I've ever experienced. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

Invoicing process is a huge improvement from AA, creating/editing drafts, the ability to change invoice date & number, emailing directly through Core has saved me a huge amount of time.

Free online walkthrough with helpful staff. Visually appealing dashboards with a great variety of variations and options.

Looks beautiful and it has been a wonderful first few months in Core.

Pay a little more for the monthly charges then you won't be gouged for a couple thousand dollars of unsatisfactory  product.

Customer support is wonderful and prompt. Lots of one on one training options that will walk you through everything you need.

This software has lot of features and the best part is you can pick and choose the features that best fit your business. Although, Core is feature rich it is amazing how intuitive this software is.

The software is just fine, but the best part is the service we receive. I have had not one but many pleasant experiences of working with support.

We are benefiting from Scheduled reports, epayments, batch updates, batch everything!, ease of workflows and the tap to talk app for exceptional support. Coming from BQ, CORE is amazing.

The ease of pulling up the needed date  is definitely helpful.

I've encountered issues in the past that have affected prior year's data and researching is extremely time consuming.

No real changes to suggest as of yet. There is already a lot to absorb.

This is fairly intuitive for a non-programming type of user. Results have been good and reliable.

This is one point solution for time and expense, things are integrated and aligned well for both employees and employers to clients.

BQE has been a blessing because it is easy to use. We have access to all the company data from one software which saves us a lot of time.

We are also excited to try the CRM features of Core making sure all our business processes from prospects (earning new business) to existing clients are handled in one integrated software.
