We ended up transitioning over to Bamboo a couple of years ago and like it much better. Pros I liked that it was web based so it was relatively easy to access. Cons The front end web app was very outdated, clunky, and difficult to use. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.
