What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

To remove a time record entry you have to move to the end of the line and then remove the entry from the dropdown, there must be some delete icon on the delete button to remove a record. You have to hit Save every time you enter anything it is frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Complete and easy-to-use solution"

4/5

What do you like best about BQE CORE?

I have been using BQE Software for over 1 year. I have been regularly logging hours and expenses as part of my daily work. I love the app version where I can take a picture of my receipt and discard it immediately, this has saved me a lot of time by passing the expenses directly to the accounting team. Tracking billable hours is also quite easy and there are a couple of options to do it, from using project timers that you can pause and resume to the old manual entry method. Overall, I am very happy with this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

The user interface, although it has improved a lot, I believe it could be more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
