AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that BQE CORE excels in expense management with features like "Employee Reimbursement" and "Digital Receipt Management," scoring 8.7 and 8.4 respectively. In contrast, Notion lacks dedicated expense management features, which may disappoint users looking for comprehensive financial tracking.
- Reviewers mention that BQE CORE's "Time Tracking" capabilities are robust, with a score of 9.1 for "Ease of Completing Timesheets" and 9.1 for "Tracking Time to Project/Task." Notion, while versatile, does not offer specialized time tracking features, which could be a drawback for users needing detailed time management.
- G2 users highlight BQE CORE's strong "Quality of Support" with a score of 9.0, indicating that users feel well-supported. In comparison, Notion's support quality, rated at 8.6, is still good but may not meet the expectations of users who prioritize responsive customer service.
- Users on G2 appreciate BQE CORE's "Project Budgeting" feature, scoring 8.8, which allows for effective financial oversight on projects. Notion's project management features, while flexible, do not provide the same level of financial tracking, which could be a limitation for users managing budgets closely.
- Reviewers mention that BQE CORE's "General Ledger" features, particularly "Journal Entries" and "Audit Trail," score 8.3 and 7.7 respectively, making it a strong choice for users needing detailed financial records. Notion, however, does not offer similar accounting functionalities, which may deter users from using it for financial management.
- Users say that Notion shines in "Task Creation & Assignment," scoring 8.9, and offers a highly customizable workspace that many find beneficial for team collaboration. BQE CORE, while effective in project management, does not provide the same level of flexibility in task management, which could be a deciding factor for teams focused on collaboration.
