Beebole Project Time Tracking

Vorteile

Beebole integrates with Excel, thanks to their add-in, and this makes accessing and analyzing time tracking data even easier. In general, it's super easy to create and customize the exact reports we want for managing both time and expenses. Plus their customer service is a 10. They always get back to me quickly and with a real person behind the messages.

Nachteile

There's a learning curve at the beginning, but once you understand the tool, it couldn't be easier to use.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Beebole Project Time Tracking

Vorteile

I really appreciate the great flexibility in creating custom fields, the ability to make changes at any time and the speed in processing reports

Nachteile

I think that this tool lacks nothing as a timesheet. The budget part is perhaps the least complete and flexible

Vorteile

It is simple to add specific hours to a specific project in a specific day within the month

Nachteile

Difficult to see overall personal time left within each project - instead I see everyone's time allocations

Vorteile

Beebole Project has competent cost management that allows businesses thrive.

Nachteile

Beebole Project is strategic and helps firms perfectly.

Vorteile

Ease of entering hours, creating projects and tasks.

Nachteile

Setting the filter for the report and overall look of PDF timesheet (extraction of the report).

Vorteile

Many useful features, nothing big is missed.
Many customizations are possible.
Multi-language is well done
GDPR compliant
Useful GoogleSheet extensions
Rather easy to use
Useful android app
Easy to be implemented and customized.
Rather good (in average) Support.
Honest price
In my company (5 people) we use dayly/weekly without any problem, since 5 years

Nachteile

Just minor flaws:
It seems impossible to have a direct connection to extract owned data with an automatic task / ETL (to integrate Beebole data with data from other applications), so it's not easy to directly integrate it with other tools, but we can do only passing through a "data backup" or GoogleSheet Extension
Some troubles using the "budget" feature, some confusion between "cost" budget and "income" budget.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Beebole Project Time Tracking

Vorteile

Easy to implement and straight-forward API. Support is fantastic.

Nachteile

API could be more robust and I wish there were a way to view the whole database and bulk updates (which would be useful during conversion. e.g. restarting)

Vorteile

Simple, intuitive interface that with a little work up front in getting it set up for your company will be very little administration going forward.

Nachteile

A native app mobile app rather than a web-page version would be better, sometimes a bit buggy in this view.

Warum Beebole Project Time Tracking gewählt wurde

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Beebole Project Time Tracking

Vorteile

Love that you can easily integrate beebole with sheets - makes my reporting an absolute breeze and is the reason why we stay with them - two clicks and the latest data is imported ready for interrogation, makes it a really powerful tool.

Nachteile

It is too customisable, I want to have set views for people and areas of the product rather than everyone being able to change this. It is not the most user friendly, can be a bit confusing for new users, which I think in large part is down to the ability to customise everything everywhere - hit us up if you would like us to help improve the interface :)

Vorteile

Simplicity of use for end-users and admins

Nachteile

Configuration screens are too flexible and same addon can be added twice

Vorteile

Like that it's fairly easy to use. I am not, inherently, a strong administrative person. I am the business owner, and fought entering my own time, although I required my employees to. Once I embraced it, it wasn't that hard.

Nachteile

I wish it had an easier way to add multiple lines to the same day for the same category.

Vorteile

Beebolee is an app that is easy to configure and easy to use. The creation of client companies and projects is fast, obtaining control of employee hours as well as their cost/hour.

Also the good thing it has are the reports and the export of data to process them with a simple excel

Nachteile

Beebolee may be weak in the tasks, there may be a bit of confusion and if you create sub-projects you have to be very careful in the reports, to have a clear vision.

Vorteile

Easy to configure
Easy to use
Powerful for reporting.
Stable and free of IT errors

Nachteile

Lack of functionalities:
Expenses management
Projects management

Vorteile

I love how easy and simple this time tracking program is! I was looking for something very simple for our few employees. I don't need a bunch of extra steps and features like other products offer. This is perfect!

Nachteile

There is nothing I don't like about Beebole Project Time Tracking!

Vorteile

I have tried different timetracking tools, but once i had my free introductory call with Beebole team, I knew this was the best. the support team is fantastic, the tool is easy to use, the reporting is easy. I don't understand why i used excel tracking for so long ;-)

Nachteile

i have not had the time to discover all features...

Vorteile

Globally, I love the fact that Beebole is an easy tool to use for anyone internally and to understand for anyone externally.
The 2 features I like the most are the timesheet that we are using everyday because they are well build, easy to fill in and even save our time filled while we didn't send them. Also we change the way we are using it 4 times according to our internal process and client requests, without any issue.
The 2nd feature is the reports, also easy to build, easy to personalize, we are able to add different reports in order to meet our client needs. The fact they are exportable make also the difference for us and our client as we can export then in csv to comment them for example - it's super helpful to review the time consumed with our client out of the tool.

Nachteile

I would say the responsive. I'm using my phone a lot, even to work with it, and when I'm opening Beebole with it, it's not as perfect as on my desktop.

Vorteile

I had experience with project management software coming into my role at a non-profit, and was looking for a way to track time spent on different tasks and multiple programs. By setting each program up as a project, this tool has worked great for us for over 5 years.

Nachteile

It was easy to make it too complex at first, because there were options for subtasks and for billing and expenses that we didn't actually need as they are taken care of in other platforms. After year 2 we were able to streamline it down into just the elements we needed, though. Some of the navigation between users and admin settings are a little confusing, there could be more contrast visually between when you're doing your own timesheet and when you are approving or making global changes.

Vorteile

I have worked with Beebole as an admin for 2 years, as well as tracking my own time. Initially I used customer support for questions. The response time and thoroughness was wonderful! It gave me context for the design and access to tools that are now second nature. Now, I keep finding more ways to obtain timesheet data quickly for specific questions that come up. I often export data to Excel which works great, use a pivot table and have the answers I need. Maybe that step isn't needed. I have done it other ways as well so I consider Beebole flexible. Also easy to use. Very rarely do I respond to a question from staff who need it to track project hours. Even new staff are immediately able to use it. I could be more specific. I need to get back to work though, and use my brain power for more precise communication on a couple other challenging issues.

Nachteile

At one point I could have answered this more clearly. Now, we have our processes nailed so that "liking least" doesn't come up. For our needs, Beebole isn't set up well for us to use the budget tracking capability. When I began using it a couple years ago, I spent some time attempting to make it work. Then I let it go, except for a couple projects. While I may have figured out how to make it work, we already had another way, and I have fine-tuned our processes.

Vorteile

Reporting features are great. Simple to use for end users (employees).

Nachteile

I wish it integrates with Quickbooks Online. I wish this tool provides more flexible timesheet period. My company's pay period is semi monthly, which means my company tracks employees' time for the periods of 1-15 and 16 - last day of the month. This is due to the invoice requirements from our customers. But currently Beebole offers weekly timesheets only.

Vorteile

This software is a very high value - it is highly customizable, which is very rare at this price point.

Nachteile

In over eleven years of use, we have no complaints with the software or customer service.

Vorteile

It took me a little bit to get to where I understand how to do the tasks we need in BeeBole. Now that I have it worked out for our system, it is smooth and straightforward. We especially like the time entry, project tracking, and weekly reporting download.

Nachteile

It is a bit frustrating to sort out how to do the various tasks. The help modules are decent, but they do not answer all of the questions. It is quite a bit of trial to see how something works.

Vorteile

The fact that it is simply laid out and that you can 'import' and 'export' the functionality you need.

Nachteile

Some of the labelling when creating reports is no very helpful and you have to use a little bit of trial and error to get what you want.

Vorteile

FlexibilityBeing able to create reports on the flyUser experience

Nachteile

User experience from an administrator standpoint : At some point administrators can be lost in navigating in the software

Vorteile

- Easy to use
- Monthly fees are very reasonable.
- Has many options such as Reports and settings.
- Can organize customers, employees, projects pretty neatly.
- Customer service is very excellent. When you email with questions, the response is very prompt.

Nachteile

- The lack of Quickbooks integration option. I use Quickbooks Online, but this took only supports the old version of Quickbooks desktop.

Vorteile

Allows you to manage your projects in a short time

Nachteile

Nothing unpleasant noticed with the features of the tool

Vorteile

I lead a project management team for a contract research organization in pharma. We use Beebole to understand time spent against individual purchase orders. Beebole offers an at-a-glance budget tracking system, timesheets, an approval workflow, and exporting for invoicing.

Nachteile

The reporting, while comprehensive, is a bit cumbersome to use at times. I would appreciate the ability to have project burndown charts available.

Vorteile

Beebole Project Time Tracking is an incredible time tracking solution.
I am impressed by the ease of use of Beebole Project Time Tracking.

Nachteile

I do not dislike the features of Beebole Project Time Tracking at all.

Vorteile

Ease in access of the product and availability of a user-friendly interface that makes it an incredible project time tracking software.

Nachteile

There is no thing to dislike. The software is up to scratch.

Vorteile

Beebole is very easy to use. The charge code selection is straight forward, corrections are simple and approving time cards is very fast and easy to do.

Nachteile

I wish the filtering and report function was easier to use for managers.

Vorteile

Beebole Project brings every time in to account, where workers ensure that they are productive and reliable.

Nachteile

Beebole Project has proper time reporting measures, where no functional challenges.

Vorteile

BeeBole is a user-friendly, intuitive, easy to use timesheet system. The initial training for a new employee takes less than 30 minutes, and we barely have any user issues (even those are resolved easily in-house). The timesheet easily works with our internal resource allocation system.

Nachteile

Everything we use BeeBole for, works perfectly. There are no cons to the system, only room for development. E.g. it would be great to see a function for time/resource planning, as well.

Vorteile

easy to use by all. dATA STORAGE ONLINE IS VERY PRACTICAL and Project management is well taught of.

Nachteile

Not enough functionalities. Not interractive with others apps for the price paid.

Vorteile

la implantación, sencillez y soporte en todo momento. El soporte post venta es muy bueno

Nachteile

no tenemos nada en contra ya que la aplicación funciona correctamente

Vorteile

Positive, really product concept, very suppoting support team!

Nachteile

Reporting Calendars related to subdivisions, and limitations related to differend athorozations, singe cost concept (you can not have two types of stadard cost!), too short (not so many dimencions) in audit logs!

Vorteile

I can easily log my hours for different tasks, and the real-time reports help me keep track of my billable hours, ensuring I'm always on top of my work.

Nachteile

when I try to run reports on extensive project histories, it sometimes takes a while to load, which can be frustrating when I'm in a hurry.

Vorteile

control del tiempo de los consultores
control de los proyectos em presupestos horas
facil cierre de los proyectos y asi no registran horas cuando a terminado

Nachteile

los informes, quisiera poder construirlos o deseñarlos para que se ajusten a mi necesidad

Vorteile

* Simple time entry
* Simple tool to set parameters for our company
* Simple tool to adapt to changing requirements
* Comprehensive, easy-to-configure reports

Nachteile

* A little more complex approval management in our company
* Ability to manage rows and columns in reports

Vorteile

- detailed and customizable reporting functionality - extensive functionality documentation- easy to use interface for time registration- diverse functionality

Nachteile

- group management could be improved. I would prefer to see all users of a group in one list and modify access there, instead of doing that from the user profile.

Vorteile

L'interface d'utilisation modulable aux besoins

Nachteile

la complexité d'intégration des taches personnelles

Vorteile

Very easy to work with, i can find quickly what I need

Nachteile

none that i can think of, at this moment

Vorteile

The simplicity and accuracy. Beebole is easy to use administratively and also easy to train our staff to use. We are able to keep track of time worked and also PTO very effectively.

Nachteile

Not being able to customize user permissions outside of what is built into the system.

Vorteile

Easy to use and to setup tool
Dashboard and Excel extract work as we expect
Data kept even for desactivated users

Nachteile

Not much, it answers our needs. Maybe we would love more automated process (Jira connectors ?) to ease the inputs

Vorteile

En plus d'être simple dans la gestion des projets dans le temps, Beebole dispose de plus fonctionnalités qui sont très pratique

Nachteile

Le logiciel est trop personnalisé et demande du temps au nouveau s'adapter

Vorteile

Easy to use the feature and track multiple projects. I'd also like to mention, as an aside, that we suddenly needed to increase project staff due to a SAP upgrade rollout and customer support gave us immediate access to 10 additional licenses before the PO for payment was live. Now that's excellent customer service!

Nachteile

It is best to make use of the training tools, and speak to customer service, to fully understand how Beebole works initially.

Vorteile

Esta genial que me permite gestionar el tiempo que dedico a mis proyectos, con lo cual logro ser mas productivo.

Nachteile

Es tedioso e incomodo que tenga que arrastrar y soltar las funciones hasta la pantalla principal.

Vorteile

Beebole's API allowed us to integrate time tracking with our engagement management, invoicing and HR services. It does what it does well, and that's all we need from it!

Nachteile

As an admin user, it takes some time to understand the options for customising reports so that I can effectively monitor time against engagements across our team.

Vorteile

From my own experience i liked how you can customize the platform the way you want it to be, especially for financial reports, you get all your data extracted and prepared in an excel sheet which is perfect.Also you can do massive mass uploads from the templates that are prepared by just uploading an excel sheet with the data you want to import .

Nachteile

From the feedback that i have gotten from a lot of people criticized the UI of the platform.Also they want a new feature that allows everyone to automate fulfillement of their timesheets so they do not have to do it daily or weekly, if that's possible to add that it would be perfect

Vorteile

The ease of quickly saving time by doing a maximum of work in a short time

Nachteile

Currently I have not had any problem with the software at first

Vorteile

The use is easily in any platform like iOS, Windows, OS X, etc.

Nachteile

The documentation is not in our idiom and not have Hardware certicate integrated to enroll card or biometric characters.

Vorteile

It is very user friendly, easy to set up and understand. We had to do minimal training with our team on how to use it as it is quite intuitive as long as you have done a timesheet before. Pulling reports is also incredible simple that our team was able to figure them out without any training. We get eactly what we need from Beebole in a user-friendly first interface.

Nachteile

We are always looking for ways to make approval processes easier for our team. Our only feedback so far with Beebole would be absence approval specific module where Team Leaders could quickly see submitted requests, absence status and approve.
