5pm Reviews
Pros
I like that the software is easy to use and above all, the interface upgrades are nice. The color coding and icons are It helps distinguish the areas.
5 PM has pretty robust filters and a sorting feature. Bonus perks are great pricing, easy to switch languages and an awesome app that makes on the go updates seamless.
I like the software because it helps my team to easily track our work progress, which can potentially help us to decide time and budget in the future.
The ability to monitor user activity is very helpful in our time management. The standalone time keeper is also a great solution.
Cons
It's difficult to find fings that are completed and our team all uses the system to vary degrees which makes it difficult to know where to know to look for notes, status, etc.
I have a hard time finding my tasks (completed or not) in the system. Sometimes I need to see notes/context on a task/project regardless if it's mine or not.
Some technical glitches do happen, the most annoying is when a project deletes on it's own or we can't really decipher how that happens.
The only feature that I have any problem with, is the Timeline feature.
"Excellent Software - I have been using it since its start"
Overall: Amazing on all aspects. My whole business and personal life is organized around 5pm
Pros: Ease of use. Loads everything in a new window. Time saving
Cons: At the moment there is nothing i dont like. When we have something we report it to the 5pm guys and they take care of it immediately.
"Robust Project Management "
Pros: User-friendliness is top of mind when thinking about the pros of 5 pm. Features are presented in a way that is very intuitive AND you can customize your dashboard for added personalization. 5 PM has pretty robust filters and a sorting feature. Bonus perks are great pricing, easy to switch languages and an awesome app that makes on the go updates seamless.
Cons: The search feature seems to match things that are not applicable. You might also experience some lag time and the design is not the most modern but overall I find the software to be very useful!

"It works, but I have several issues"
Overall: Eh, I does the job and since I have to use it at my work I do. It is not the best and I have used better systems.
Pros: It is available easily for everyone at work since it is we based. I wish it had a windows software alternate I could use.
Cons: If I update a task I expect the date to change and it float to the top again, not remain hidden far down because I started it 3 weeks ago. It makes it hard to track and follow my CURRENT work. I should be able to MOVE my tasks to another folder or task easily rather than have to make a new one and then delete the old one. I should be able to close a task (MARK 100%) without new emails going out
Vendor Response
"Easy for Work"
Pros: 5pm is a good communication channel for our company. We have overseas offices that we communicate with via 5pm every day, and it's a seamless and efficient process!
Cons: The search feature is difficult to use, which is quite a disadvantage because it's something that everyone uses each day. Additionally, the mobile app isn't that easy to use.
Vendor Response
"Simple and effective"
Overall: 5pm allows my marketing department to keep track of many projects of different kinds (print, web, email, and more) with many of the same assets organized in one place. Also can allow clients access so they can view projects and needs. Good product -- not super complicated and maybe doesn't have ALL the features of some others, but has all the things you need.
Pros: 5pm is a good example of a project management tool that doesn't try to do everything -- just the one thing and do it well. Learning curve is easy but it still has all the functions you need.
Cons: The project keyword search needs some advanced features.
