    Raken has been an excellent partner during the entire journey. From the pitch, through proof of concept, license negotiations, implementation, and production, Raken has been very easy to deal with the entire way.

    Pros

    The struggle to produce quality daily reports at construction sites used to be real. Raken gave us an "Easy" button. It is almost hard to imagine life before Raken.

    Cons

    Raken has some extremely nice checklist features to collect data on the mobile app. The only con, is that getting to the data behind these checklists is not possible beyond the PDF report that the checklist produces.

    It’s the next step in evolution for both the construction and management whether that be from an office side or a site side

    Pros

    With very little training, anyone, and everyone can at least use some function of the app, and be useful and productive with it

    Cons

    Good is not cheap and excellent is even more expensive

    I have been utilizing this app for construction purposes for six years, and it has generally been reliable. However, following an update last summer, the app's performance on my Pixel Pro 7 has been inconsistent. Unlike other apps on my phone, this app now experiences frequent issues. Inputting notes and pictures now require multiple attempts, and the app often reboots and shuts off unexpectedly. Despite reaching out to tech support multiple times and following their suggestions, the problems persist. As a result, I have suggested to my employer that we consider transitioning to Procore.

    Pros

    The app is very easy to use when it's working properly.

    Cons

    The constant rebooting of the app while trying to utilize it on the job site.

    It's okay but unfortunately, I have worked with better systems.

    Pros

    It's an okay system for timecards, however, you have access to everyone's timecard in this system. It also doesn't allow you to sign your timecard daily.

    Cons

    I stored my signature on file however I get an email notice every week to review and sign my timecard, however, it does not allow me to just insert my stored signature so I have to write it every time. It is very annoying and time-consuming.

    The start was slow as we kept running into compatibility issues. Once connected it was a very fast transition. Team was super helpfull in trying to get the program installed and ready.

    Pros

    Once the setup was completed. the ease at which we can upload pay hours and gather reports was amazing and most workers have adjusted to it quite well.

    Cons

    Equipment tracking is currently the worst feature. you can only add equipment by hours. you can' separate it into different segments. and when you are working on and off a project each time you move the equipment it creates an entry and make it really hard to track/ has too many entires.
