"A bit clunky to use and the standard reports aren't helpful for our specific use-case"
0.5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

The help desk is great! Easily accessible and employees are based in the U.S. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

A bit clunky to use and the standard reports aren't helpful for our specific use case. I'm not too fond of the fact that many of the standard reports don't allow for showing hours only, they automatically include dollar amounts. This is challenging because I need many employees to see the hours spent vs. actuals on the reports but I don't want them to see actual costs because you can deduce employee salaries from the report.

Also, the system has gone down a few times, which is really a problem when you need to make financial-related decisions quickly.

The dashboard functionality also doesn't show the items that I would want to see. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

The software customisation options, we find specific areas where customisation is limited. We have encountered instances where the software's default settings or predefined workflows could be more flexible depending on the particular business needs and workflows. This issue can be a minor inconvenience, but it's worth considering improving in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"BQE CORE for Engineering, RECOMMEND!"
5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

The platform is organized and very easy to use. Several modules available. Input of data is one time, and then can be pulled for use among all modules. The support staff is knowledgeable and resolves issues quickly. M Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

The cost can be quite high, depending on what staff members need what access, because it's priced per module per user. Would be great if they came up with tiered packages with different module bundles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Power software to scale your firm!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

Core keeps all of your project details talking to each other - clients are linked to project, projects to fees, fees to invoices, etc. Once you really invest the up front time to get the information in, you'll be set up to keep track of current projects and staffing, and as you grow or take on larger projects, Core is ready to keep everything organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

Core demands a lot of attention to detail, and is pretty "all or nothing" in terms of the information it provides. If you don't or can't put in the effort to ensure every detail is lined up, you won't get useful information back from Core. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
