Bridgit Bench Reviews

Pros

Ease of maintaining & reporting on my team. Forecasting bench. Pursuit team placement.

Cons

I've noticed that not all reports or graphs can be exported, particularly the bench forecast graphs and listings.

Pros

The software is very intuitive and visually conveys a lot of information. I can easily customize information fields, and many features are just a click away. It's sleek and fast!

Cons

The exported reports don't show as much detail as I'd like. Reviewing them on paper away from the computer often limits me.

Pros

It's simple to use and makes collaboration effortless.

Cons

After switching from Excel to this software, I find the latter to be significantly better.

Pros

The intuitive design lets me have better control over the manpower on a project. It's easy to use.

Cons

The software comes with a price, which might be a drawback if you're just starting out in the business.

Pros

The customizable schedule for a project has helped my company keep track of which employees are assigned to which jobs.

Cons

The main downside is the limited customization options. I'd prefer to add more phases and get more detailed project information. It would also be helpful to have a single dashboard for each project instead of multiple tabs.

Pros

Bridgit has helped my teams see the bigger picture, move people around more effectively, and communicate and collaborate on the workforce more efficiently!

Cons

They've been extremely responsive to any issues we've encountered, no complaints.

Pros

Bridgit Bench has made it really easy for my leadership team to forecast our people to projects! The tracking of project completion, the system's ease of use, and the employee profiles have been excellent tools for us!

Cons

There's nothing negative to report. The system is currently intuitive, and we're using exactly what we need.

Pros

It's simple to use, and minimal training is needed. It captures the requirements for positions.

Cons

Managing people is a bit cumbersome. I'd like it to be integrated with our HR software.

Pros

GANTT charts by people and project are very visual and so easy to use. It's very easy to navigate.

Cons

It would be great to have a few additional features, such as a weekly view of the Gantt chart.

Pros

It's easy to use and allows for modifying the information in various ways (e.g., dragging Gantt bars or manually typing the date).

Cons

The cost is high, especially considering the alternative products we might already have.

Pros

We've added fields essential to design (like sales tax rate for each project location, which corporate entity has oversight, client satisfaction ratings) that make the life of our APs much easier. The Gantt chart for each employee is very helpful for evaluating workloads and availability.

Cons

It would be beneficial to have employee linkage for generating reports on team efficiency in resolving issues and keeping job timing on track.

Pros

It makes managing our personnel easy, and I can see who is available and who is committed to jobs.

Cons

I don't have any current complaints. The issues we had before have either been resolved or we've found good workarounds.

Pros

I can see which staff will be available in the future to plan our resources for upcoming projects.

Cons

I can't customize dates for specific roles; only people in those roles can have customized dates.

Pros

BB does a great job of organizing all our projects and personnel from preconstruction through completion. Our management team uses this tool almost daily to help us be efficient and effective in running our business.

Cons

The price appears to be somewhat elevated. When considering the cost relative to similar products or services in the market, it does seem to be on the higher end. This might be a significant factor to consider, especially if budget constraints are a concern.

Pros

The product is very easy to use for anyone, and it has saved our company a lot of time aligning resources and tracking personnel as our company grows.

Cons

Initially, it was challenging to provide PDF summary reports for those without software access, but the Bridget team helped customize reports that are now very useful.

Pros

After tracking projects and people in Excel spreadsheets for years, Bridgit offers a solid platform to keep up with our employees and projects. It's easy to implement and use regularly.

Cons

A mapping page showing project locations and employee residences could help assign the right person to the right job and minimize travel time.

Pros

The product is simple to use and allows us to track individual resources easily at the Executive level. Setting up and getting operational was a easy.

Cons

Transitioning between people and projects can be tricky from one screen to another. Sometimes the apply buttons are cut off at the bottom, and you don't notice until you scroll down.

Pros

It's fantastic for storing all our project information in one place for easy reference.

Cons

I haven't encountered any complaints so far. It has met all my expectations.

Pros

The software's ease of use and intuitive nature makes implementation and support nearly hands-off!

Cons

Bridgit Bench is excellent but lacks some desired features. However, they do a great job incorporating customer feedback and addressing critical issues promptly.

Pros

Bridgit is intuitive and easy to navigate. After the initial import of people and projects, maintaining it is very simple, and the Gantt chart makes viewing commitments and availability across all resources easy.

Cons

Entering project dates for each phase is somewhat cumbersome, and the standard project colors don't include yellow, which complicates our green, yellow, and red tracking system.
