BigTime Reviews & Product Details

BigTime has made a noticeable difference in several areas. Invoicing is much easier to manage, and time tracking has become simpler for the team, which also makes running payroll smoother. Project management has improved with better analytics, giving more visibility into performance. I also find the AI chatbot useful - it often helps me quickly find the right settings or configurations without needing to dig around too much. Overall, the platform brings together a strong set of features that support day-to-day operations effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The rollout could have been smoother, especially in the early stages. It would have been helpful to have employees tracking time sooner to identify potential issues earlier. The interface could also be more user-friendly in some areas, as there is quite a bit of back-and-forth clicking and some actions feel less intuitive than they should be. Additionally, some of the help videos are still based on the old UI, which makes it harder to follow along when trying to make changes in the current version.

BigTime offers a very structured and intuitive approach to time tracking, which makes logging hours

straightforward and efficient. The way Projects, Tasks, and Categories are organized provides clear visibility into

how time is allocated. Using Projects as client names also simplifies tracking and keeps everything well organized.

The Task Dashboard is especially useful, giving a clear view of task status across different stages. I also find the

Analytics section valuable, particularly the Timesheet Details and Expense Sheet reports, which make it easy to

review and analyze data for any period. Overall, the ease of use, strong reporting capabilities, and depth of

features make it a reliable tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing specific stands out as a major issue based on my experience. Overall, the platform works well and

supports my needs consistently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simple design of the platform, especially when it comes to entering time. Everything is easy to find and

clearly visible, which makes the process quick and straightforward. It doesn’t feel complicated, and that helps a

lot when using it regularly. Overall, the ease of use and clarity of the interface make it easy to stay consistent with

time tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The expense upload process could be simpler, as there are quite a few categories that need to be filled out and

they’re not always clear. I’ve also noticed that if you forget to select a location when entering time and try to save,

the system can delete the entire entry, which means having to retype everything. Small improvements in these

areas would make the experience smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BigTime helps keep time tracking structured and organized across projects. It provides a clear way to log work

and manage entries, which is important for staying consistent. The overall system supports regular use, and the

core functionality around tracking time makes it useful in day-to-day work. The ease of use and available

features make it a solid tool to rely on Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see a clearer way to view a summary of time spent across projects, as it’s not easy to find right

now. It would also be helpful if the system could automatically correct typos when entering timesheet comments.

The UI could be improved to make things more intuitive, and I personally don’t find the timer feature very useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how straightforward it is to use, especially for tracking time against specific deliverables. Being able to organize work by engagements makes it much easier to stay accurate and structured.

Running detailed timesheets each month as backup for invoicing is also very helpful.

Overall, the ease of use, strong reporting capabilities, and solid feature set make it a great fit for an independent consultant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I did run into an issue when trying to connect BigTime with QuickBooks, which made the setup a bit more difficult

than expected. Once resolved, things worked better, but smoother integration would improve the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cannot stress how little I like BigTime. It's a better question to ask what I hate most. But then again it would be hard to pick. Probably what I hate most is how I cannot get in touch with anyone from BigTime to address seriously problems. Or maybe it's how there are problems with the software altogether- it shows payments having been made that weren't made- things just straight up don't make sense and no one cares.

Reports are terrible. Serious problems with the software altogether. Instead of it making life easy to bill, and giving us good insights, we cannot tell what is happening with bills, and we have no insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. I like the easy and multiple ways I can enter and submit time. I can use the web version or the iPhone app. I can work in a weekly view or in a daily view.

2. I love how easy it is to add/remove SOW and Tasks. I prefer to only see what I am working on in a particular week, so adding all the tasks for this week make it super clean to work with.

3. The screen/page layout is very concise and easy to understand. Icons (like locked or timer) are clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4. I would like access/permission to some canned reports based on my ability/permission to enter time. This could be a decision by my organization, as I am not an admin, but other than printing my timecard to a pdf, I can’t report on SOWs or tasks.

5. I think there is benefit to submitting a specific day’s hours. I plan out my time for the week by SOW/task and adjust as the time is worked. I would like to be able to submit time for a day completed, but not the rest of the week, since it is not yet worked. Perhaps this could be accomplished with a daily submit option in the Day view of the timesheet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What stands out most is how easy the system is to use across the different dashboards. Navigation feels consistent and logical, which makes it simple to move between financial and project views. The integration with QuickBooks is also a major benefit and helps keep accounting aligned without extra steps. I also appreciate the project dashboards, which make it easier to monitor progress and manage projects effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no major issues that impact daily use. At times, it can take some trial and error to fully customize dashboards or reports exactly the way we want them. However, once everything is set up properly, the system

works reliably and supports our needs well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BigTime provides structured access to financial and project data within a centralized system. The platform offers

a comprehensive set of features that allow tracking time, reviewing financials, and managing projects in one

place. Overall, the system’s functionality and breadth of features support operational visibility and project

oversight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are several areas where usability could be improved. It is not currently possible to filter by labour code

under financials to see total hours spent, which would enhance reporting flexibility. Some navigation elements

feel unintuitive, such as not being able to click “project list” to return easily. Instructions referencing tabs like

“task” or “budget” do not always match visible page options, and adding or enabling columns is not clearly

guided. Overall, improving clarity, navigation, and alignment between instructions and interface would make the

system more user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
