Vestd is an excellent tool for companies of all sizes - from start-up to enterprise! Vestd is used by FDs, HR managers, accountants, legal professionals, investors and company secretaries.
The technical support team is pleasure to speak with and very informative. They are able to help me understand and utilize Core better.
I find the billing process steps a bit awkward but I am used to them now. It is annoying to have to look for the most recent invoice under Invoice Review once the invoice is processed as final.
Fantastic time-billing software. The flexibility it has in generating reports and the technical support from staff was terrific.
No real changes to suggest as of yet. There is already a lot to absorb.
Key project information on reports is helping our project managers make important timely decisions in real time. Absolutely love their excellent customer service.
Our project managers thought it was hard to use, and didn't feel our data was always accurately depicted.
Amazing customer support and a great product. Glad to not be shopping for a new product for sure.
Early on we had a difficult time understanding the vendor bill workflow.
I get to do what I enjoy most - helping the clients design their schemes and spending more of my paid-time on what interests the client rather than what is interesting to lawyers.
Confusing paperwork and lots of uploads to do.
In particular was great in helping us understand how to use Vestd and the onboarding process was great. The only company we saw with a direct integration to Companies House.
Reporting to HMRC and the steps required are not intuitive and because they aren't done frequently are hard to remember.
The onboarding with fantastic customer service - caring, attentive, supportive, understanding, going at my pace, and educating all the way.
Where friction is felt is often due to government bureaucracy rather than a limitation of the software itself.
Great service, great people - [sensitive content hidden] was a great help, easy to use platform, saved me a packet on legal fees.
I think the product has a hard job to make complex products, especially because of regulatory requirements, accessible.
Cecilia T.: Hi, I'm Cecilia. I'm a financial administrator, and I give BQE Core Suite a five out of five rating. For more ratings like this, click below. We use it for maintaining costs and in invoicing our clients for the projects as they progress. We do it on a monthly basis, and it's very easy to maintain the accounts for the clients, make sure everything's up to date, and record all the payments. I like BQE because you can really customize pretty much projects, employees, all activities, the way you invoice. You can customize pretty much each process throughout the business cycle to your company's needs. You can filter and create groups and lists to meet the company's needs specifically for you. I work with architectural people who are very visual, and I think they use colors a lot and are very less wordy and more visual, I guess, is the big thing. We find Core sometimes all the screens look exactly the same, so they have to read it. And it's hard for them to say, "Okay, this is a budget screen. This is a fee schedule screen," because they all look the same. They're like blank slates. It would be great if all the budget screens were in one color and all the fee schedule screens were in another color so they know when they're keying something in at what point of the system they're in. Are they in projects? Are they in budgets? Are they in time entries? Green for time entries, yellow for budgets. That would really make, I think, just click in quicker for them. It takes longer for them to read every single screen.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
