After research and a 60 day trial of archioffice, our 12 member firm settled on BigTime for time tracking and project management in coordination with our Qbooks Desktop. It seems as if there is not one standard in the architecture field for small offices. I came upon the BigTime reference in an architectural chat formum. Believe it or not, this is one of the cheaper options. Our office manager had some issues with it, but not as many as Archioffice. We have been using this for 6 months. We have to streamline the project management process, and it’s not perfect, because you are running two systems, QB and BigTime. So you need to ensure that both match up if any changes are made.
