  ### 7. Great platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2018

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

I like the speed at which the platform loads and the ease of use

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

I can't think of anything                        

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm easily able to track both mine & my team members time

  ### 8. Great tool for a service based business.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Allen C. | Director, Operations, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

The company is a pleasure to work with and I always receive timely responses to any issues that arise.  The tool itself is very easy for our consultants to use for entering time and expenses as well as other casual users to perform basic tasks in the system with minimal training.  The other side of that is the flexibility for advanced users to configure the system to accurately record project information and financials in structured environments.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

There are still a lot of functions that require the client interface.  The majority of these are being moved to the web but until that is completed we have users frustrated that they can not exclusively use the web interface.   Areas such as managed services and work order assignation fall out of this tool's sweet spot although I am told there is new managed services functionality on the way.  

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When we started with Projector we were looking for a  tool which allowed us to track time and expenses on a project and group basis as well as allow for capacity planning.   We moved on to where our biggest challenge was ensuring we were preparing the financial information correctly for integration into other systems.   We are able to map complex contracts into Projector so they are easy for the consultants to work with and yet still transfer accurately to our other systems.  

  ### 9. Good functionality but cumpersome user interface

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 14, 2018

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Multi currency and easy to provide full supporting documentation for expenses to the client

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Inability to interface with an accounting package such as Xero. Currently expenses and sales invoices have to be loaded manually into Xero as well as into Projector

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Project management of expenses incurred on a project

  ### 10. 8 years experience with Projector PSA

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2018

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Pulling my reports, ease of time entry and approval

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

The wait for reports to populate but it is average, we have a lot of information it is parsing through but I am usually in a hurry

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Project Management; Burn rate reporting; Ease of tracking my resources time on tasks

  ### 11. Easy to work in the system and great support staff.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 08, 2018

Security of the System and using multiple rates on the project for the same consultant doing multiple tasks.

  ### 12. Solutions Delivery Manager

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 07, 2018

I like interacting with the support team. They have been VERY helpful in any support issue we have raised.

We have concerns about the inability to upgrade sandbox separately from Production.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Resource and project management, electronic timesheets.

  ### 13. More powerful than it might first seem

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steve R. | Professional Services Automation Manager, Computer Software, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

When we first looked at Projector we had a slight concern that it could be a simple, low-end solution that wouldn’t address our business needs.  But as we learnt more about it we realized that it is a powerful, practical solution that has been designed to address real-world requirements, rather than requiring us to distort our business to fit in with the tool.  Whenever we ask “can Projector handle this?”, there is normally a positive answer.
Specific “best” areas include resource management, reporting, time entry and approval, the ability to integrate with other systems, and the very responsive customer support.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

The current mix of functionality between the “desktop client” Management Portal and the “thin client” Web Portal can be a slight concern, requiring the use of different portals at different times.  But one portal can connect to the other, which simplifies this.  Project Managers won’t find full Microsoft Project task management functionality, so need to decide whether Projector task management is sufficient, or whether they should use a tool such as Microsoft Project alongside Projector.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

The product is more powerful than it might first seem – bear this in mind when comparing with other products.  But also, bear this in mind when planning an implementation – seek help and guidance from Projector to ensure you configure the system optimally for your organization.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Projector has enabled us to gain benefits in areas such as resource management, with improved visibility of past and projected resource utilization.  We have also achieved more up to date time entry due to the easy interface and the facilities for flagging missing time.  Management information has also improved by using Projector reporting.
In addition, the integration with other in-house systems means that we have gained efficiencies (and reduced errors) by avoiding duplication of data entry.

  ### 14. Valuable

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 11, 2018

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

integration between time invoicing and the various interfaces

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

not necessarily dislike - would prefer more web enabled components

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Start simple

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

eliminating efficiencies

  ### 15. If its extreme power you are looking for, thenlook no further

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Barry M. | Internal Systems Architect, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Projector is a level above any other project management system that i have encountered. Most systems can do the normal project management tasks, but its the power to be able to deep dive into your project data that makes Projector so valuable. The reporting is just amazing and I don't know any other system that has the different types of reports and the way a user can chop and change fields so easily to get very detailed reporting. 

I also love the easy ability to integrate with almost any system out there. For example we have Salesforce, Home grown internal systems and our our HR system are integrated into Projector for online dashboards. 

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

The entire tool needs to be ported to the web. At present it is a mix between a tool on your computer versus time sheets, dashboards etc. are on a web portal. 

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

I would strongly recommend this tool anyone who wants more than the average project management tool. 

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We originally were looking for a resourcing tool, but have since fed our sales pipe line into projector, as well as out HR leave data, expense approval data, whereby we can mange project costs by time, revenue and expenses. As well as we are able to calculate project profitability, resource utilization, by month, phase and by project. 

  ### 16. Powerful & Always Improving

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 27, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

I personally have benefited tremendously from implementing the AAM (Advanced Analytics Module).  It has provided our organization great insight into our resources, our revenue, our adherence to time entry and project management (among other items).  The set up of this module was pretty simple, and the capabilities are really powerful and have helped our organization view our data in a macro way to identify trends and impacts that were previously going unnoticed.  It has helped us manage write offs, and customer management gaps that were previously flying under the radar to ensure we capture more revenue and have happier customers.  Additionally, I've loved working with Projector, they have been a fantastic partner, anytime we have a question about the product or how to do something, they answer quickly, professionally, and it's clear that they know their product inside and out as well as have a good understanding of our ask and why it's pertinent to our business.  They really are just a great partner to work with.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Some of the functionality remains in their desktop app (manager portal), while this is powerful it is a bit dated, however, they are actively working to move, improve, and expand this functionality to the web and with each new release they are doing just that.  The nice thing is that each move/release is well thought out and communicated, and there have been no major challenges with these.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Work with their team and their consultants when implementing.  Have a clear idea of what you want to get out of the product, cast that vision of the end result with them, and they will help you get there.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Resource Forecasting, Revenue Forecasting, Revenue Recognition, Project Management, Resource Management / Planning, Time Tracking, Variance Reporting, Utilization Reporting, Project Reporting, Overall/Executive Reporting,

  ### 17. Projector PSA Software - Resource Scheduling

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Projector PSA makes it very easy for me to manage scheduling our Consulting resources across a large number of client projects.  It provides a concise way for me to see what all of our resources are working on and determine which resources are available for new projects.  It also allows the Principals to enter new projects and request the resources that they are interested in.  

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

There are a few small improvements that could be made to save me some additional time in terms of allocating the resources, but overall the program has been very effective.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Projector PSA allows me to save time in allocating resources and to have a clear and concise way to keep track of the resources.  It also allows the Principals a good view into the resources available for upcoming projects.

  ### 18. Projector does it all!!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ed M. | Vice President, Operations, Management Consulting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 23, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

I love the fact that Projector includes all of the key modules in one system - resource/project management, time and expense submission/approval, project financials, revenue recognition, invoicing, and reporting.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

I don't like the fact that the system does not have a robust team collaboration feature.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Great all-around platform at a very good price point that comes with phenomenal support.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problems we are solving as a result of using Projector - resource allocation/utilization along with visibility into project financial performance.  The benefits are that we can make resource adjustments quickly and maximize our resources.  The system also gives us the ability to track project performance and address issues as they arise.

  ### 19. Great Integration with QuickBooks

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tenilla J. | President, Accounting, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

I love the fact there is a seamless integration with QB.  I can invoice in Projector and import those invoices into QB with little difficulty.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

I do not have any dislikes.  Like with any system there is mapping issues but that is not the fault of Projector.  Our awesome training consultant Amie Bonner helped us figure out a work around.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Projector for our timekeeping system, invoicing and reporting analytics.  The main reason we moved to Projector was because of their reporting capabilities and the analytics provided to help gain better financial insight.

  ### 20. Projector PSA is a tremendous resource for our organization

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew N. | VP, Finance & Administration, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

The thing we like best is the data we now have at our fingertips to help us run the services side of our business.  Before we either didn't have the data or it took a bit of work to present the data in a useful form.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

It would be nice if Projector had more pre-built integrations with other vendors/tools.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Go for it!

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Projector PSA has greatly improved our ability to make decisions on resources and our services business.  Resource management allows us to see how many engineers we'll need in the future to fulfill our services pipeline and we have greatly improved our services revenue forecast accuracy.  We've also seen huge improvements in our KPI reporting for multiple groups which has allowed us to better manage our services business as a whole.

  ### 21. Capable system, good service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Capable and robust system with rich functionality. The developers clearly understand the professional service workflow. Support and account management from the developers is excellent, with quick response times and careful attention to detail. Training is also very good. The system takes a little while to get used to, and the back-end appears complex and a little clunky, but the workflow is well thought out and it is simple enough to use. There is a new web interface for timesheets and other user functions, and this is excellent. 

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Transition to web interface has been very slow. The existing back end is very robust, but a little clunky. Vendor invoice functionality seems overly complex.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Try it and don't be put off because the back end does not look quite as slick as others. Many others look better but the functionality is not as capable and they are not as robust.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Control of resource usage and cost expenditure on professional service engagements. Visibility of resource utilisation

  ### 22. COO

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Ability to customize the solution with UDF functionality.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Lack of UDF history ability within the solution

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Projector PSA allows our organization to stay organized in both a billing and delivery capacity. 

  ### 23. Projector PSA - Comprehensive Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

A comprehensive solution for managing all aspects of a Services operation that does not get in the way of getting business done. Great insights into resource utilization, project profitability, work pipeline and skills . 
Very easy time sheeting and expense management

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Would like to see integration with Xero Accounting

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Well worth evaluating

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing a distributed workforce who spend little time in the office. Consultants know where they need to be, when  they need to be there and what they are supposed to deliver.

  ### 24. Projector PSA - Best in Class

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Molly C. | Manager, Business Operations, Management Consulting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 27, 2016

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

I have implemented Projector at multiple companies, replacing other PSA's.  The main reasons I recommend it are the ease of use, intuitiveness and ability to manage the entire life cycle of complex projects, starting with integration with our CRM all the way through to revenue recognition and invoicing that integrates with our general ledger.   Projector allows consultants the ability to easily enter their time and expenses, see their upcoming schedules and request time off.  It allows project managers to manage project budgets, timelines and resource management, and it allows management to easily report on KPIs and metrics.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Feedback from our consultants and sales reps who travel frequently suggest that the mobile app could improve.  The company is very good at listening to feedback and in a lot of cases, making changes in the next release based on that feedback.  

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

I would recommend Projector PSA to any company who wants visibility into their projects, resources and financials.  

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

At my current company we were looking for an easier time sheet solution, a better way to manage projects (with up to date actual hours/revenue and forecast) and invoicing.  Projector has solved all of these, as well as allow us to improve project margins since we have much better visibility and control.  

  ### 25. Projector Review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

The staff at Projector PSA probably the best I have ever worked with any company. Quick with resolutions and send you to the correct people the first time. 

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

At this moment, I do not find anything i dislike. 

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Time tracking was a main issue for us but with Projector we get more than we asked for. 

  ### 26. Time/Expense tracking

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mike N. | Account Manager, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 03, 2016

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

They have made a very strong effort to make sure that the platform is migrated to all web based. I've been very pleased with the pace of their progress. (the platform was built with as PC only desktop management portal). The web based tools are user friendly and increasingly powerful for reporting and analytics. 

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

The mobile capabilities for expense tracking are only through a mobile browser based app and that workflow is not all that great. As a traveling sales person I'd much prefer a native app with really quick capture for photos of receipts and expense tracking. Works in a pinch, but not ideal. 

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Make sure you have someone who will really learn it's ins and outs to make sure that your organization will get the most out of it. There really a lot of powerful features that I'm sure we don't get all we could out it. 

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have much more granular tracking of time and expenses and it makes it easy for us to report key metrics out to our clients on our project.  We are able to easily capture, approve, and run reports on time logged against projects. 

  ### 27. Brief Projector review by Jurate Baubliene, Financial Controller

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jurate B. | Financial Controller, Management Consulting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2017

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Good for tracking time worked/utilization rate for specific projects

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Creating new reports is not user intuitive

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Great for tracking time/utilization rate for specific projects;
Not so great for building customized reports

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We need to find the way to track simultaneously budgeted and actual hours worked by project so we gain more insight into the profitability of the projects...haven't find the way to run report which would show both dimensions 

**Official Response from Gregory Smith:**

> Hi Jurate, 

Thank you for sharing some thoughts on Projector. I'm glad to hear you are getting good use out of Projector's time and utilization reporting capabilities. 

With regard to getting visibility into budgeted and actual hours worked, have you tried using a Project Portfolio report? There are quite a few ways to access this information depending on how your firm uses Projector, but the Project Portfolio report provides a nice roll up. Alternatively, you could use the Project Dashboard to view this information without needing to run a report. 

We hosted a reporting webinar in our Projector e3 Community a little while ago that covered, among other things, this report. If you'd like to watch it you can access the recording here: https://e3.projectorpsa.com/topic-of-the-day-reporting-overview/ 

If you’d prefer to simply talk through some of these approaches please feel free to reach out to either our support team (support@projectorpsa.com) or myself directly. We’d be happy to walk through your use case or make some suggestions. 

Thanks, 
Greg

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Projector knows the ins and outs of a professional services business. It was clear from the beginning that this company had developed a tool that can handle any situation in the consulting business. From billing to all the way to complex analytics, Projector provides value to our business. What we like best about Projector isike how the tool can evolve and handle the high growth of our business while continuing to evolve and add new features.  

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Nothing particular. I would love to see what they come out with next. 

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our business focuses on high complex software implementations. Projector allows our consultants to run efficient projects and leverage the reporting functions in order to run a sucessesful project within budget.

  ### 31. Projector provides accurate, real-time information for our professional services management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2016

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

Very easy to use, intuitive, efficient web portal for users to put in time and expenses.  User friendly product and customizable for our business needs. Great project management and project accounting tool. Accounting interface with QuickBooks is easy. Plus data can be exported to Excel or other formats so you can create your own reports.

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

The application is currently split into two: the web portal (which users record time and expenses), and the management console (PC only). Works really well, but it would be nice to have it all in one place. While the reporting modules are is great, creating reports can be complex and required a fairly deep knowledge of the product. Needs improvement with GL integration. Budget in Projector PSA sometimes does not tie to actual budget due to the timing of billing. Projector should include an option to account for the time billed and un-billed.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Since implementing Projector we have increased the amount of billable time available for our consultants, we have reduced the amount of time spent on administrative tasks and have better management of projects which contributes to improved profitability

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Projector is a time saver for employee time/expense submission and invoicing.  The ability to create invoices and capture all pertinent information that a client requires saves so much time.  For Project Mgmt, resource scheduling and reporting, Mgmt can truly ensure that our projects are profitable and resources are utilized.

  ### 33. Great tool from a front end perspective, clearly need user experience assistance on the back-end.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 09, 2015

**What do you like best about BigTime Projector?**

This tool is a really solid time tracking tool for front-end users. (meaning those who are entering time, not managing the projects themselves)

**What do you dislike about BigTime Projector?**

Even though it doesn't affect me personally, this tool has real struggles in ease-of-use for project managers. The UI can be very unclear, and non-intuitive. It could really use re-thinking in that regard, and redesigning. It looks more like a Windows 95 program than a windows 10 one.

**Recommendations to others considering BigTime Projector:**

Look into tools that are easier for project managers to use. Front-end ease may not be worth the trouble.

**What problems is BigTime Projector solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This tool is great for time-tracking, and is a solid benefit for front-end ease of use. Sadly, if you are looking at the back end, it can be very confusing and frustrating.

**Official Response from Gregory Smith:**

> Hi there, 

We wanted to take a moment to respond to your review of Projector because, quite frankly, we couldn't agree with you more. We are really glad to hear that you enjoy using Projector's time and expense tracking interface, and we wanted to let you know that a full redesign of Projector's project and resource management features is currently underway. 

If you, or your coworkers, wanted to get an idea for what those new interfaces will look like I would encourage you to join our Projector e3 Community. We have been doing quite a few design reviews and feedback sessions as part of that community to include organizations in the redesign process. In addition to these forward-looking sessions, the e3 Community also has a library of content focused on helping organizations get the most out of their use of Projector. You can learn more about the Projector e3 Community here: http://portal.projectorpsa.com/blog/projector-e3-overview 

Thanks again for your feedback, 
The Projector Team
