Just a little bit of a learning curve > > I would use this software again if i ever went to another company. Hope to continue to utilize it for the years to come. ----- ### "RAKEN-you shouldn’t be in business without it" — 5.0/5 > **Saul** | *30 July 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Did the designers creators behind it kept it for a lack of better words, looking rudimentary, like however, the functionality and what it produces is far from rudimentary very easy to maneuver. > > **Cons**: I can’t really say there’s anything I dislike about raking. With all of the new functions. Any integration with more programs nothing bad to say. > > My experience, maybe unique and the fact that I use Raken to battle with entities I have contracts with. The way the data is stored. It’s unquestionable when brought forth in arbitration or mediation. ----- ### "Use It Everyday To Make My Life Easier" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 May 2019* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's super easy to upload photos, even on my slow connection it handles them easily. I LOVE that you can roll-over previous days work load, since most days my subs are doing the same things. > > **Cons**: Too many tabs to click through. It would be better if everything was all in one location. > > Helps me a lot with my day to day daily logs, making them all in the same location, easy to find and easy to read. Everyone is able to use the software. It is very easy to pick up and go. ----- ### "Won’t Allow Custom Changes & No ADP API" — 3.0/5 > **JoAnna** | *23 May 2025* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Timecards, but needs API for ADP Integration. ADP is one of the popular payroll systems but we have to manually enter time into ADP and it’s a major pain. We previously used ADP’s Time Tracking but wanted more flexible and accurate reporting. With Raken we lost automatic feed to payroll and Raken Reporting isn’t that much better than ADP. For now, we’re staying with Raken but as we grow, we’re not feeling confident Raken will grow with us. > > **Cons**: No API for ADP, reporting is lacking \& doesn’t have Ad Hoc reporting capability. Raken doesn’t cater to individual client’s needs. You get the canned app, canned reporting and that’s it, regardless of client’s unique needs. > > Overall Raken’s a good app but Raken will not customize the app to individual client’s needs. Whatever the canned app has or doesn’t have will have to do because Raken will not cater to individual client’s needs. It’s a disappointment and for Raken to try and fit their app to everyone’s needs is extremely short minded. Also, there are instances where Raken made a significant change to the app \& didn’t notify their clients prior to change. We had to pivot quickly and get everyone trained on the change that came without notification. I understand the app needs to maintain quality assurance and altering the app is difficult. If Raken will add ADP API, Ad Hoc reporting and some minor app customizations my rating would go from 3 stars to a full 5 star rating. ----- ### "Makes job tracking a breeze" — 5.0/5 > **Austin** | *4 March 2026* | Commercial Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used Raken as a General contractor so I tracked reporting from our subcontractor who utilized the app. The amount of information and communication a single pdf could provide was incredible. The features they used kept me in the loop and allowed for update meetings to run efficiently. > > **Cons**: I didn't experience any cons as the GC who used their reports. The subcontractor appeared to utilize most of the functions on their daily reports which made my job easier. > > It was a net positive for me. The reporting for our jobsite was easy to read and simple to convey in a quick meeting. This allowed for my updates on that site to be seamless, up to date, and added with daily pictures it kept things concise in meetings. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/46317/raken?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/46317/raken) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
