Jen H.: I'm Jen. I'm the president of the Civil Engineering Firm. I would give BigTime five stars out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Before I used BigTime, I use Deltek Vision and QuickBooks, and those are very robust programs for a lot of projects. And I didn't have that number of projects that I needed to look at. I started using BigTime because my friends recommended it to me. I have a friend who is a landscape architect who uses it every day and he was very proud of the program and thought highly of it and recommended that I take a look at it. When I looked at it, it was the perfect piece of software for what I needed at the time. I picked up BigTime when I first started my business. It was very easy to pick it up, very easy to call and ask questions of customer service. We had a two hour onboarding session that showed me all of the intricacies of BigTime. The key things are how many employees do you really want to use this? And what functions do you want them to perform? Because I had to go through a lot to figure that out as to what access to give who.
