Raken Construction Management

As third-party inspector’s for municipalities on street/asphalt renovation projects, our inspectors sometimes up to 8 projects in a given day. Using this app helps them to easily keep track of the data & the photos from project to project and saves time and energy they would normally spend trying to sort through dozens of pictures that actually all look alike. Additionally, our clients were impressed by the look and feel of our inspection reports. They look like something that would’ve been put together by a marketing team when they are really done a couple of guys driving around in a truck. I’m giving it four stars because I would like to see an efficient way to track equipment on site.

I found this app by trying different ones out there, this program I hope is here to stay. It’s easy, and once your job and sub contractors are input in, the quick fill in the blanks for the remainder of the job makes it great because I just don’t have a lot of time to be stuck doing daily reports. Thanks Raken, keep it up!

I’ve used the app for almost a year. It was better before some of the recent updates. It doesn’t separate pictures by date on Apple products and now with the recent update, the pictures are of all your photos, sort of in the order of time/date taken, as well as any photo you looked at recently, which they are randomly inserted, even if they’re from a year ago. It messes up the time sequence and it’s not as easy to select the photos for the current report. It has also had some glitches over the last few updates that haven’t been corrected that make it not as user friendly. Customer service has been responsive and said they’re trying to work through things with Apple, but it’s still a pain to deal with some of the issues.

Raken is one of the best decisions we took in our company. By creating professional daily reports and just seconds, it saves more than 30% of time on our project Coordinators. And Customer Service is the best, they are always available and always follow up to make sure you are clear. Specially Ivan does an excellent job. Thanks Raken Team.

Recent updates have been easy for our Field staff to navigate, and it has made review of Enterprise reporting far more efficient. Time reporting has been integrated into our daily operations on focused beta testing projects with minimal training of Field staff due to the intuitive nature of the app. Looking forward to the Labor Productivity analytics that are coming.
