I like how CMiC Platform has a lot of different ways to perform tasks. I particularly appreciate the BI Analytics ability to create reports and how the workflow processes streamline approvals and communication. BI Analytics allows us to create useful reports for our team members to make processes and information more efficient. The workflow processes reduce the need for email or Teams communications and allow for historical traceability of tasks required. We did quite an accelerated setup and, for the most part, the integration was done very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For BI Analytics, unless you have an extremely smart and educated report writer in your team, it's incredibly difficult to create. There's also still fields that we are often contacting CMiC about because we don't have access to them in BI to bring into reports. Requests for those fields or access often take months to obtain, making this extremely inefficient. The Bank Reconciliation program is extremely inefficient and could use some major upgrades. Not being able to see what was reconciled in that period and being able to unreconcile within the bank rec is something that is urgently needed. We had this ability in our previous platform. The Job Billing platform also needs work when it comes to report outputs. There are no good report outputs currently in CMiC related to self-performed work. There's a big issue in the Job Billings transaction screens where we can't get proper information. Creating a billing in CMiC and sending it through communications to the client is not possible and must be compiled outside of CMiC due to the inability to attach documents and send it through communications within the job billing platgorm. The PO module is missing proper logic for closing POs. Currently, the options are to close POs manually after checking invoicing or automatically when received, but there's no check to ensure invoices are received, creating a lot of manual extra work. There should be an option to have a PO automatically close once billed in full. The PO program being in Enterprise and under Asset Management also doesn't make sense and causes us to have to use more expensive licenses just to give project employees the ability to create PO's. The LEMS program in CMiC is unusable for us as it requires daily postings of equipment and labour which are not possible. The construct CT program is disliked due to inefficiences, slowness and it's more difficult to use than our current 3rd party software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
