Company crew leads can record time and materials information in the field using a laptop or mobile device. The data can then be sent directly to the office, avoiding manual double entry and errors. Users can also record diary entries and meetings, enter production quantities, and submit photos. Using these entries, job managers are able to track daily operations, time, and budget. HeavyJob is scalable to fit any size company, from a single foreman to large enterprise or joint venture operations. This allows organizations to get production information daily, and allows users to manage documents and contracts to get data needed to streamline business operations. All packages come with HCSS’s 24/7 customer service. > > Verdict: Rated **4.5/5** by 95 users.

The man hour daily log for a period of time submitted should be a product of daily logs tagged or linked with a cost code, there should be connectivity between the three > > the product has being very helpful in budget tracking to ensure the project implementation and expenses is within the budget ----- ### "Heavyjob Review" — 4.0/5 > **Kylinn** | *19 January 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: My company has only used for about 2 years. Positive on this software would be reports (job reports, cost code reports, equipment reports, etc.) and easy access. > > **Cons**: One dislike is our company could use a lot more training on the outcome of reports \& T\&M information. I think there's so much potential but have yet to see it. ----- ### "Poor quality product is only saved by spectacular customer support" — 2.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 February 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most likable thing about this software is the incredible customer support team. They're available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week; there has never been a situation where I've called and didn't have my problem solved within an hour. Over 90% of my support inquiries have been handled in less than 10 minutes. The team is truly incredible. > > **Cons**: The software is built on an outdated database with a poorly constructed user interface. The UI is probably one of the worst things I've ever seen in a project management software; it's not intuitive at all, requires a ton of clicks to get very simple things accomplished, and a multitude of options sit in places where they don't logically belong. My crews in the field do find it easy to use, which is a benefit, but from a backend perspective it's just a mess. I actually come from the user experience (UX) world, and it's clear to me that HCSS either didn't hire a UX designer/developer or the one they have hasn't learned anything new in the past decade. Basically all of the internal UI logic is just really, really bad. The reporting system is also a mess of odd questions and functions, and I've had to call several times to get customer support to explain to me how to custom make reports that should just be readily available in any PM construction software. The "takeoff" phase of this was very problematic, and we ran into multiple issues along the way. HCSS charges an exorbitant amount of money to host their own software on their servers. Choosing them over Google Cloud would have cost my company almost three times more per month, but because the software was already extremely expensive I didn't want to go over budget. So we ran into issues during implementation and the training was lackluster. > > Aside from being able to keep track of time and having an easy input for our accounting software, HJ hasn't really benefited our company at all. If we were to take it away today and simply have our employees fill out excel spreadsheets, we really wouldn't notice much of a difference. While I'm sure the software is great for large companies with employees who can dedicate many hours to the intricacies of it - this is an overall bad software for smaller to medium sized companies. Given its user interface problems and outdated database - a company will need a full time operator on this software just to get their money out of it. ----- ### "Payroll made easy" — 4.0/5 > **Alicia** | *5 June 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: HeavyJob makes payroll a breeze. From our Foreman logging ours to checking and correcting timecards all the way down to exportation of data, payroll is simplified. > > **Cons**: Our foremen sometimes have issues with their iPAD syncing up with desktop computers. They will submit time or try to approve something, and it will not show up on the administers side of the system. > > We enjoy using Heavyjob at our company. We had a great trainer come out and clarify details and teach us things we didn't know about the system and since then we have had a great experience. ----- ### "Perfectly Applicable yet underwhelming" — 4.0/5 > **J. Mickey** | *13 November 2018* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: -Allows Man hour entry on a daily basis -Allows Daily log reporting on a daily basis -Allows Equipment and Material tracking as well > > **Cons**: -Although on the whole, HeavyJob allows access to every module a construction based enterprise would need, the functionality and user interface lack for the end user. > > This product definitely supplies the needs to any Foreman / Supervisor / Project manager would need for daily time entry and notes, but is seriously lacking in user interface. Daily reports need to be more than a note log, there needs to be connections between a daily log and the Man hours being submitted. For all intents and purposes there should be a daily log that you can 'tag' with a cost code that automatically creates man hours for the time periods. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/3735/heavyjob?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/3735/heavyjob) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
