### 4/5 — 1 Year In

*2025-03-20, version 5.8.26*

Overall program is working well. Still having some issues with pay period cut off dates and picture upload dates. Sometimes it puts pictures into the future.

### 5/5 — Great app

### 5/5 — Raken

*2025-01-21, version 5.8.22*

This tool is most effective at making daily reports easy and allowing one to organize the activities of the day. The fact that you can upload pictures directly not having to email them to yourself, click and drag, or put them into a file saves hours of work.

Raken offers an exceptional system tailored for contractors. Their remarkable communication, outstanding customer support, and patience while working with us make them stand out. I wholeheartedly recommend Raken for all the value they bring to the table.

Unable to add photos not sure what the deal is. Seems like a good app but it’s not letting me add photos.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It freezes and crashes

*2026-07-30, version 6.1.19*

The constant issues with this app is irritating. If they don’t fix it soon, companies will drop them.

### 1/5 — Used to be decent

*2026-05-20, version 6.1.12*

The app used to work flawlessly. Now, every time they send out a new feature or update it creates multiple other issues. The new time card set up is terrible. Constant bugs. Still no QR code technology implementation. Work with the program daily and very unimpressed.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-04-21, version 6.1.11*

I've been using the app for a while now, and I have to say, I'm really disappointed. The constant issues and glitches make it nearly impossible to use smoothly. It's frustrating because I really like the concept of the app, but the technical problems just keep getting in the way every day. I hope they can address these issues soon because it's really impacting my overall experience. Be aware that there is no cancellation.

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up

*2026-03-25, version 6.1.5*

I’d love to try the app, but my US phone number is “invalid”. Not sure why, it works on every other app and I even receive about 50 phone calls a day with it. Not sure what this app considers a valid phone number.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-02-07, version 6.1.0*

This app is constantly crashing and or freezing. It’s more trouble than it’s worth.

### 1/5 — Very stingy

*2025-12-06, version 6.0.15*

I signed up for Raken and use their product for two years. I was kind of turned off after the first year with their aggressive auto renewal, and the ability to be able to turn that off in the app. I had to write several emails to the company to get my subscription canceled. 

When it was set to renew this year, I received multiple emails and invoices aggressively pushing me to sign up again. I was unsure if I wanted to continue. So I ignored it for two weeks or so. And ultimately got a subscription canceled. Email, which I expected.

I expected, I would not be able to create new projects without a subscription. I was disappointed to learn that they cut off all my access to pass given the hundreds of dollars. I spent they should give you some period of access to your old jobs without strong arming you into a new subscription

I don’t know if all the job management apps are like this, but Raken sucks in my opinion Sincerely,

Dan

### 1/5 — 40$ a month

*2024-07-24, version 5.8.8*

Trialing few apps,  as you start to understand how this one works you get prompted to subscribe,  or loose the ability to use the app any further.  And if you don’t subscribe all information you uploaded and needed get erased on you.  Lost a lot of important reports, and will not come back to the app ever again.  It’s a lifetime subscription once you start or you loose it all.  Any decent business needs to keep records of everything, for ever.

### 1/5 — 👎👎👎👎

*2024-03-14, version 5.7.17*

Trash and the app hasn’t gotten better over time but worse.  I have to use it for daily reports and procore is 20x better and has many more features. Just because something is cheaper doesn’t mean it’s cheaper.

### 1/5 — Great if you are small or big but support is non existent

*2023-01-11, version 5.5.6*

Absolutely a scam of a company for trying to delete users when a superintendent is let go. They allow you to deactivate the account but make it physically impossible to not continue getting billed $60+ a month for them

### 1/5 — Construction Manager CK

*2022-12-07, version 5.5.6*

Nothing on app works since last update. Can’t even open the app.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Foreman

*2026-07-07, version 6.1.18*

Professionalism made quick and simple

### 5/5 — Time saver

*2026-07-06, version 6.1.18*

Great app/software. We’ve been using Raken for years. The app is easy to use, helps me stay on top of projects and employees. The integrated time keeping app makes Raken even better. I would recommend Raken to anyone in the construction industry. My only gripe; they told me they were going to send me some merch for leaving great reviews and recommending and I never received anything.

### 5/5 — Saves us so much time

*2026-02-11, version 6.1.2*

Everyone at my company was able to onboard easily and get started asap. First tech we've ever adopted for payroll and reports. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — The perfect app

*2025-06-28, version 6.0.3*

Very pleased with this app. So far it has worked flawlessly.

### 5/5 — The management  software every construction company should use!

*2025-03-21, version 5.8.26*

Raken has been one of our best investments here at Grizzly Steel Services, LLC. I have personally been utilizing Raken for over 7 years and influenced several other companies to purchase the software. I can stay informed and updated on every project by simply opening the app. Raken employees are always here to help, whether it’s a simple technical issue or we are creating and personalizing the platform to suite our company. 
Our customers always inquire about our software whenever we send documents. Our percentage of paid change orders has increased dramatically with the integration of Raken. Daily reports are amazing with automatic weather reports, pictures, job safety analysis and so much more.
As the president of a steel fabrication and erection company, I am always trying to improve our business and Raken gives me the clarity and insight I need to make the decisions that matter. Do not hesitate to get a free presentation, you will be pleased with what Raken can do for your business.

### 5/5 — Great and easy app

*2025-02-11, version 5.8.23*

This is such a easy app to navigate and keep up with jobs
