Review Summary

Raken is generally praised for its user-friendliness, streamlining daily reporting and job site documentation. Users appreciate the app's ability to capture photos, notes, and weather data, making it easy to track progress and communicate with clients. However, some users have expressed a desire for more customization options, particularly with regards to materials and equipment tracking, and a "configuration" feature to reduce repetitive data entry. While Raken has been lauded for its customer service, a few users have experienced minor technical issues, primarily related to updates and the mobile interface. Overall, Raken is considered a valuable tool for construction professionals, but further development of its features would improve the user experience.

What do you like best about Raken?

The best thing I like about Raken is the whole package. It offers field reporting, time cards, photos and much more that management can use whether your employees are halfway across the country or an hour from the home office.

What do you dislike about Raken?

We dislike nothing about Raken, from customer support to the salesperson; everyone is friendly and wants to solve any issues. You can't dislike anything when the entire project is at your fingertips.

What problems is Raken solving and how is that benefiting you?

Raken solved the problem of not getting daily reports all in one location. Before, it was an email or text message on how things went for the day. Now it is accessible on my PC, cell phone and tablet.

"Time equals money"
What do you like best about Raken?

Raken is a very diversified program. It allows you to keep track and log all aspects of your project while you are working in the field. There is no need to make notes, go back to your computer upload photos relative to your notes. Raken is an amazing time saving device ( I call it a device ) allowing me to never miss any action on the job site. As a superintendent, my job is in the field not in office, Raken allows me to do it all right out with the boys.

What do you dislike about Raken?

The only dislike is just an issue with web service, other than that no

Problems.

What problems is Raken solving and how is that benefiting you?

No problems Raken has saved me countless hours compared to how my dailies used to be put together. As soon as you use Raken for 1 day that's all it takes 1 day and you will be satisfied.
