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.

Cost is a strong advantage it has other competitor Mircosoft.

The plugin is handy and are what makes it really rich although the cost of the plugins can start to add up if they are used they are good value.

Awesome document syncing for online collaboration. Superb permission management for critical security of confidential data.

The product works, and is great for startup companies that don't want to invest in something more powerful.

Confluence is not the most intuitive program and learning to properly navigate it took a while. I also dislike that it is possible for one corrupted page to crash a whole file.

Do almost anything with the documentation by just using the internet browser is really awesome. The integration with jira is pretty good.

Customer service is always available and is super helpful.

I dislike that Confluence gets a little confusing with multiple links for the same page (a long link and a short link), but it is hard to differentiate.

You also need to make sure that obsolete information is cleaned or marked obsolete, otherwise documentation rot can make information difficult to find.

Great editor tools and easy to make my pages look content rich and informative. Good search and folder structure is great for organizing content.

Great product for sharing software creation and communications. I really enjoyed the workflow and ability to communicate with several developers.

Confluence syntax is confusing for new users, its preview function is not working well when having micro or embed script.

I integrate it with jira to show any kind of  project progress. The version control feature on confluence is excellent and the fact that multiple people can edit a page at the same time is awesome.

It happened to our team and it made using Confluence unpleasant and annoying.

Like most about it easy way to document the pages. And best way to store the important document required for business purpose.

I think that Confluene is very useful and worth the time and investment.

The one thing i dislike about it is when there are topics to click on and it jumps to that supposed topic but there's no information there. I'd guess the editor was not able to remove that section.

It features a exuberant number of plugins to construct a document , so many are advances and have to learn. One important plugin that i use is the Architecture diagram building editor.

Customer support is very easily accessible and quick resolution. The deplyomnet is also easy with option of cloud server and in-house server deployemnt.

Which is great for customer support and of course technical documentation. Did I mention that you can create as many different wikis as you like.

Confuence is very easy to use and makes documentation fun and collaboration with others a breeze. It helps us organize and document our work, from meeting notes to operational documentation.

Confluence cloud allows to make the documentation space more scalable. The solution is so popular it can be integrated with most of the solutions.

I also love the version control as that becomes increasingly important as the number of contributors or complexity of the page goes up.

I have had an overall good experience with Confluence and it is easy to create and share documents. If you are using JIRA already I would recommend this.

Confluence is a project management solution that enables organizations to create, collaborate, organize and review project documents. The system offers both cloud-based and on-premise deployment.


Confluence’s editor feature allows employees to create content such as meeting notes, product requirements and research reports. The solution enables managers to review and share feedback in documents themselves.
