"Weekly timesheets & expenses"
5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

The ease of inputting time and expenses. I generally use the app, and inputting time and expenses is very easy to do. It is easy to modify, edit, and submit time especially when traveling for work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

The app has an issue of updating the correct project. When I add time for the whole week at once and use the 'next cell' after submitting a time for a day. The app changes the project. So I have to exit out of the menu screen and manually click on each day for the same project. It would be nice if I hit ''next cell' it would stay on the same project. This is really not a big deal but a flaw I'd like to see fixed eventually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software for tracking projects profitability & Office Accounting - Great Service Dept also!"
5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

The technical help line guys do a great job. My waits are short and the assistance is very helpful. I use software everyday - almost all day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

The software is still a bit NON uder friendly. It is geting better and moving in the right direction. There are still things about ArchiOffice that I miss and would be very helpful to the team. Some of these things keep the team (26 people) from using it more as I believe they should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Decent product, but not worth the sizeable increases year-over-year and the extra fees at the end"
0/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

More user-friendly than BQE Classic for sure Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

BQE's policies and pricing: I had a subscription with BQE Classic for seven years. The price went up 80% in 7 years, and I didn't notice any improvement. BQE Core is even more expensive. As a very small company, it's untenable. Also, there are all the extra fees and charges. BQE charges $595 to export your own data after expiration/cancellation. That's more than what it costs to renew for another year, and export it yourself. Even QuickBooks gives their users 60 days of free 'read only' access to their own data after expiration/cancellation. In addition, during my time as a BQE subscriber, I was less than impressed by how they treated me as a customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease of use and reporting"
4.5/5
What do you like best about BQE CORE?

The ease of use and ability to see all of the details for the week in one view (or month, if chosen). Reports are easy to run as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

It is probably related to our security setup for our company, but if you forget to add your receipt on expenses before you save, you are unable to edit and add it after the fact. Also, if would be great if you could copy an expense and modify it for recurring monthly expenses. I've tried the copy function and either it is not working or I just need to research a little further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great project management"

What do you like best about BQE CORE?

We use BQE Core for project management, task management, time and expense management and it's been a great tool for our business. We really like using the reporting functions to get detailed reports on where the budgets are at for projects and with the customability of the product we're able to further breakdown where our costs are and analyze the profitability of projects better.

What do you dislike about BQE CORE?

Nothing so far. BQE Core has been an amazing tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
