For program owners & CM firms who are frustrated by the chaos of multi-team collaboration on complex projects, and disappointed by Big Software—and who want a partner, not just a product.
BigTime is ideal for professional services firms who want to streamline project operations, maximize their resource utilization, accelerate billing and payments, and connect scattered data sources.
I have briefly used it as a CM, and I feel like the program we have is very good for what we need it for. The support team is great and they work hard to solve the issue.
Haven't found anything I would complain about. I will admit that we did not implement all features of the platform.
My experience with VPO has been great. They always are looking to make things better and make sure we are happy as a customer.
The risk to start the process and to use it for the first month.
But with understanding the product and having wonderful customer support, VPO has been a great addition to my projects.
It is a bit confusing when you first start using the software.
The entire team had access to track work and outstanding tasks which simplified ongoing team meetings. I'd be happy to be a part of another team where VPO was the chosen document control method.
Inconvenience of having to use it. Would rather send submittals, RFI's, etc in email format.
I really like the reporting it's outstanding. I can quickly and easily analyze my data, allowing me to identify areas for improvement and make informed decisions to drive growth in my business.
We purchase the data import package and that process was bad, the numbers did not match ours, he just told us the import was done and provided not reports to show the numbers matched.
The training was really amazing. And the capabilities made it well worth the switch from Productive.
We did it backwards which cost us about three weeks of loss time.
BigTime has also been responsive and helpful in helping to support us when certain custom reports were required and we needed some guidance.
When using on an airplane with weak internet, the application does not function as well as on the ground.
I have recently had wonderful customer service experience with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] at BigTime going above and beyond to make sure we were getting the best use of available services.
The only thing I can say we really dislike about BigTime is not having a "clock-in, clock-out" function. Meaning the software does not record the time of day you start and end.
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.
