B2W Track

Great for instant project costs

Pros

I love how I can get project costs immediately after submitting a field log. This is the quickest and most precise field tracking software I've ever used. We can easily monitor a project's daily performance without any hassle. The reporting features are fantastic as well. B2W provides plenty of reports to use, and if none suit your needs, they'll definitely find you a workaround.

Cons

I think some of the standard reports could use an update for Excel exports.

B2W Track

Pros

The simplicity and the variety of functional reports for job progress, employee hours, and payroll are great.

Cons

It doesn't sync with our accounting program, and there is not any training provided for field users.

Track

Pros

It's incredibly simple to navigate, making it accessible even for those who are not tech-savvy, and it seamlessly integrates with electronic field logs. This integration ensures that all data is consistently updated and easily accessible, streamlining our workflow and enhancing overall efficiency.

Cons

I encounter minor issues syncing with accounting and payroll software.

B2W Track

Pros

Custom Properties and the add-in to export out the field logs are very useful.

Cons

I can't customize the reports, and the future employee timecard app does not integrate into the daily field log.

Track Review

Pros

It's easy to navigate. It also resembles our old time sheet, which helped with the initial integration.

Cons

True-Up is a bit more challenging to use than I anticipated (though it might be due to my own actions). I wish there were a better way to view cost versus revenue.

Cougar Companies Review of B2W Track

Pros

Our PMs, Superintendents, and Foremen use this product daily. At the end of each week, I review projects, and with the correct information entered, this is a simple way to track work in progress (WIP) for our accountants.

Cons

Training is a bit more difficult, and setting up Track took a lot of time. It would be great if I could enter a laborer or equipment in Estimate and not have to duplicate that in Track.

B2W Helps Family Company Grow

Pros

It's easy to use, the products are mobile, and supervisors can manage their time better using mobile devices in the field.

Cons

Without support, the program won't get any updates, which will eventually make the mobile program outdated and unable to communicate with the home server.

Success with Track!

Pros

Track allowed for customization to fit our specific trade and our unique company setup with multiple divisions, each handling daily operations slightly differently. We eliminated paper and spreadsheet data and created a one-stop shop for our foremen. Custom properties were crucial in our development. From the foreman's perspective, the interface is easy to navigate and provides access to more project information.

Cons

Right now, the biggest issue is that the app is not finished, and I haven't seen a timeline for when a one-off crew person can submit time. Once that's done, automating payroll will save a lot of time and benefit both users and the company. Specifically, there are still problems with start/stop times and inaccuracies when copying logs. I reported it as a support issue and was told it's a known problem, but it's a frequent complaint from our foremen. Another issue they have is with photos on field logs and the inability to select multiple pictures at once. That would save them a lot of time. (I'd be happy to discuss the start/stop and picture issues with someone if they want to reach out!)

B2W Track - Production and Time Tracking

Pros

Track is an intuitive system that lets us capture more information from the field more easily than our previous system. The software is easy to navigate. When training users, the biggest challenges are defining internal terms, but the software itself is easy to teach. The custom properties offer flexibility in capturing information.

Cons

I don't have any major issues with the software. I'd prefer to use it on a computer rather than the mobile app, but many of my users really like the app. The software relies heavily on network connectivity.

Function Product That Can Be Tailored To Your Needs

Pros

The easy-to-navigate aspect of this program was the selling point for our company. Even someone who doesn't use the program daily can grasp the major functions without needing extensive training refreshers. Beyond this, the programs can be customized to gather information important to your company. The customer service is great, and I've yet to meet an unfriendly person in their company. We're very happy with their product, though there's always room for improvement.

Cons

I genuinely feel that our problems with this program are largely our own fault. We have not taken the steps needed to integrate our accounting software. One reason we switched from our previous software was the True-Up function. I think different security settings could allow more tailored user access, like letting foremen enter material costs without seeing equipment and labor costs. I've sent all my concerns to the Idea center, and I believe they're working on adding these features to the program.
