Costpoint Time and Expense 4+

There are times when I go to sign my card on the computer at work and it won’t take the signature due to a saving error. So I and others at work have to come out to our cars to sign the card—-no problem on the mobile app!

In a pinch the app works, but if at all possible use the web interface as it is a bit more usable (not great, but better). Be careful that it is on the right date before entering time as I’ve often found that it goes to the wrong date in the past instead of today’s date. For example, just today I opened the app and instead of starting off on 1/29 (Mon), it defaults to 1/20 (Sat). This behavior persists between application reloads as well. Otherwise, like the subject says, it works though it looks like something out of the late 80’s / early 90’s.

I manage a team of about 100 employees and all they really need to do is enter hours under a couple different project IDs. This app itself isn’t toooo bad, but the overall experience between their desktop program and this app is incredibly annoying. This program must have been made strictly by engineers without a single UI professional in sight. I understand that some businesses need a ton of steps available, but maybe this program could have a simplified version for people that are doing the same work each day and only need to enter a few details at most. It takes a while to get used to the interface as it’s not very intuitive. We used to have ADP, and I definitely miss it.
