Birdview

Fantastic product with lots of additions

Kommentare: Overall Birdview is nice, a lot comes down to how your organization has it set up and what level of user you are.

Vorteile:

Birdview (Avian Perspective as we affectionately call it) is fairly easy to use and is improving constantly. My favorite part of Birdview is the extensive learning suite that comes with it. If you need guidance, there are webinars and help sections, further supported by live Chat support. Most actions are easy to understand and follow. It is scalable and flexible adding to it's useability. There's many additional modules, we even use it for some of our Dev requests (forms in BV).

Nachteile:

There is some frustration with the way Activity Est. Hours roll up to a Project total. Not sure if this is a setting issue on our end or just the way it's meant to be. We often set a total # of Est. Hours then break down the activities. It tends to Add any Activity hours to the Est total, instead of considering it part of that total. Again, this may be a setting our BV Admin may need to look at.

Nice transition to a new project management platform

Kommentare: We recently transitionned to BirdView. It's been pretty intuitive to start with the platform and I thank my employer for the guides they built for it.

Vorteile:

It's pretty easy to enter your time sheets in the right projects. The amount of customization of your personnal space makes it adaptable to many styles of work

Nachteile:

I'd really like for the numpad period to work for my time entries

Excel migration feedback

Vorteile:

Easy to digest dropdowns. Visual appearance is pleasant. UI to mark PTO is simple to use.

Nachteile:

Since my team moved our project trackers from Excel to Birdview, it feels like there are a lot of settings that are dependent on other things that make it hard to know if I'm able to change something or if something is a permanent deletion. This product is hard to adopt with customers as it has not been as easy process to grant guest access. Some of the features like the multiselect is not very user friendly/transferrable, like I can't use shift on my keyboard to multiselect line items, but instead I need to click the toggle on the dropdown every time.

Project Manager's Thoughts on Birdview from and Entry Level

Kommentare: I am using Birdview for project and resource management. This is the platform for creating projects, assigning team members, forecasting hours, and managing time and budget.

Vorteile:

Intuitive data entry process. Great sorting and reporting features. Seems to have all that I need.

Nachteile:

I am learning without the benefit of official training. Despite the very good data entry process, there is some fumbling on my part to find my way around.

Nice new tool, flexible and user-friendly

Kommentare: pretty easy to navigate, I just started using it and it feels and looks nice

Vorteile:

Flexibility, nice UI, easy to use, has mobile client.

Nachteile:

A little too complicated at times, but that's just the other side of flexibility, I guess. Navigation could be better. Android applicaion doesn't work for some reason. infinite login screen loop.

Great tool for project management

Vorteile:

Resources allocation, deadlines coordination

Nachteile:

While Birdview PSA’s interface is functional and supports the wide range of features it offers, its design could benefit from greater attention to usability and aesthetic appeal. Some users may find the current layout overly dense, which can lead to an initial sense of overwhelm, especially for those new to PSA tools.

Birdview wins the organizing game

Kommentare: As a part of a production team I can see clearly where an individual project is at regarding completion.

Vorteile:

The platform is very easy to scale to our needs.

Nachteile:

It took me a while to learn all the icons.

Good project management

Kommentare: Great, but I think the name "Easy projects" is better.

Vorteile:

Good project management website. I enjoy the comments and file sharing you can do on projects

Nachteile:

I get a lot of emails whenever tasks are made, feels a little excessive.

Excellent work interface.

Kommentare: As a new user of Birdview- I found super simple to acclimate to. It's super straight-forward and easy to use. I really enjoy this and even prefer it over Slack.

Vorteile:

User-friendly design and user experience. Clean, easy-to read layout. Very Organized.

Nachteile:

having to tag specific users in messages under projects in order for them to be notified of changes.

Easy to Use. Highly recommend

Kommentare: Easy adaptability with the team, functionality with cross functional teams.

Vorteile:

the easy of use. And the ability to have many cross functional teams be part of it and have access to eyes on projects

Nachteile:

Not being able to add a template checklist and get notified when someone checks it or adds to it.

All projects in one place

Kommentare: I do not have to move between several applications to advance in the creation of projects and my work is more organized having all the information in one place

Vorteile:

This platform makes performance more effective by having visibility of all projects in one place and seeing their progress in real time. It made me replace several applications because Birdview had everything I needed. It makes me focus all the information on the same platform, having a more effective exchange of knowledge with my work team.

Nachteile:

I approve that the entire operation of Birdview is effective and of great value for performance and teamwork

Really Great Software

Kommentare: Overall, this tool is exactly what we need. I love that it integrates with our other softwares seamlessly.

Vorteile:

Birdview is easy ti learn, and easy to collaborate on across teams. It is an integral part of our project management system.

Nachteile:

We use Birdview primarily for Time Logs, and a change to UX recently made Time Logs harder to get to. That would be my main complaint.

Strucural engineer - Honest opinion

Vorteile:

It's cool and user-friendly. I would say the USER INTERFACE or I think its called CSS. Keep in mind this review is done by someone who used to code back in 2016 but took engineering as Plan B.

Nachteile:

The tracking of projects is limited to time/ cash. We need AI to help us find more money to make from clients aka marketing or outreach companies. I DONT MAKE MONEY on projects - full-time person making less than 70k before tax lol. Dont sue me bro.

Birdview is a useful tool for time tracking and reporting.

Vorteile:

Ease of time tracking, ability to copy over tasks from week to week, different available views for reporting.

Nachteile:

Sometimes tricky to navigate the user interface. I wish it was less redundant to add team members to a project each time.

Birdview Review Higher Education Use Case

Vorteile:

I like being able to add in tasks and projects and see everything in an organized manner. I like being able to enter data and information to keep the owners and stakeholders aware of what is going on with the projects and tasks.

Nachteile:

I think the entering of tasks/projects hours is a little cumbersome and could use some tweaking to help make that entering a faster experience. Also I think the reports and data could also be enhanced to be able to manipulate the reports and information in ways we need to share out to stakeholders and team leads.

Birdview Efficiency

Kommentare: Birdview has been a great time management resource and gives me a great view of my weekly time usage.

Vorteile:

Birdview is user friendly and efficient. The ease of being able to repeat time each week and add new time categories makes Birdview a great option.

Nachteile:

As year to year turns over, it can be somewhat cumbersome to exchange years in Birdview.

Nice tool to manage projects and tasks

Vorteile:

It is a very convenient, flexible, and user-friendly tool with a nice UI. I like especially ability to copy tasks from a previous week

Nachteile:

I like everything I use, nothing that I can frame as "like at least".

Easy to Use

Vorteile:

Birdview is easy to use and I like the structure it provides. It's very nice to be able to leave comments for other employees direclty within tasks and keep track of everything in one place without the need for external communication in many situations.

Nachteile:

Navigating between different tasks and projects can sometimes be confusing. It takes time to customize and set up the view in the way that works best for you.

Experience with Birdview

Kommentare: I think that this is a very easy to use time tracking tool for organizations. It is visually appealing, and light makes it nice.

Vorteile:

I enjoy how easy it is to track my time. Also, how I can carry over my previous weeks timesheets. The layout is clean and appealing too.,

Nachteile:

I do not really have anything I dislike about Birdview. It serves it purpose for me.

Use of Birdview as a Project Manager

Vorteile:

What I liked most about Birdview are its comprehensive project management features, which include task tracking, resource allocation, and timeline management. The user-friendly interface makes it easy to navigate without a steep learning curve. Additionally, the advanced analytics and reporting tools are powerful, helping to track progress and make data-driven decisions. I also appreciate the collaboration tools that support real-time updates, shared workspaces, and communication, enhancing teamwork and productivity. The customization options allow for tailored dashboards, workflows, and reporting. Finally, its integration capabilities with other commonly used tools and software make it even more functional and easy to use. Overall, Birdview significantly improves project visibility, efficiency, and collaboration.

Nachteile:

What I liked least about Birdview is that its extensive features can sometimes be overwhelming for new users, requiring a bit of time to get fully acquainted with the platform. Additionally, while the customization options are great, setting them up initially can be time-consuming. There were occasional performance issues when handling very large projects, which could slow down the workflow. Also, the integration with some less common tools wasn’t as seamless as with the more popular ones, which required additional workarounds. Finally, although the analytics and reporting tools are powerful, they can be complex to configure correctly without some initial training.

A fast and effective tool for project management

Vorteile:

Enjoyed the ease of input of project information and the tracking elements.

Some areas could be more effectively designed for browser use especially the time log area.

Project management incredible easy with Birdview!

Vorteile:

Birdview is extremely easy to use. It is one of the best ways to organize your work.

There should be more types of reports to be produced.

Birdview for PM/Tasks

Vorteile:

Easy to use, customizable format that accommodates a wide variety of needs

Nachteile:

Learning curve was steep; different from other products

Simple to use

Vorteile:

I really like the time tracking features and the enablement of carrying over repeatable tasks week after week. The resource management pages are also easy to see team allocations week over week.

Nachteile:

I wish there was an easier way to remove time tracked that was accidentally entered into the wrong field.

New to Birdview

Kommentare: I am a novice at Birdwiew, but I think that in a short period of time, I will become proficient at it.

Vorteile:

It is very easy to use once the tasks are assigned to you. I love the timer feature--it helps me keep track of all of the individual assignments.

Nachteile:

The time log view is not always the easiest to use, but I think I just need to get used to the program.
