Expensive Service
What do you like best about the product?
Deltek offers a comprehensive database of federal acquisitions intelligence.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost point is quite high, with additional costs for more features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One-stop information on competitors, government acquistions
Convoluted and Complicated
What do you like best about the product?
The main screen interface is fairly easy to decipher and navigate since it has large, clear, graphical buttons taking the user to areas within the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
Most of the user experience is attempting to figure out how to find the information one needs since data is often buried behind windows and links. It is difficult to find what one is looking for, and the GUI while searching for project related information is not intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Contract management - all contract data is enetered into Costpoint, and it is the main database for contract information, including accounting/financials.
Review of Deltek Costpoint
What do you like best about the product?
Once you learn the system, it's pretty easy to put in your time for time keeping
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have to do anything beyond the normal steps of putting in your time, it can be a little difficult to work through the sub menus to access other time trees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since it's integrated into our HR software, keeps everything in one ecosystem
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a good system to use if you're looking for something that's a simple set up for your employees and not difficult to navigate. Can be helpful if you have other Deltek products that your company uses.
Costpoint is effective for the most part
What do you like best about the product?
It’s very easy to input new projects and track accounting-related issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
The system interface, although effective, seems very dated. It could certainly use an upgrade. It just doesn’t feel fresh.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We often use Costpoint to track expenditures in relation to proposals as well as expenditures related to current work. With the ability to track these items at multiple levels, Costpoint is very useful
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely learn to use and undergo as much training as possible before use.
Flexible ERP Systems
What do you like best about the product?
First of all the customer care is nothing you will find anywhere in the marketplace. The time taken for each customer to fund solutions is above and beyond. A host of options that allow any organization to customize and use the system to meet their needs. The system provides solutions out of the box. Included are tools to customize canned reports and add integrations for every module. Extensibility is something recently introduced to users that makes the system even more powerful today. The seamless integration with all products makes the entire system even more powerful using Time & Expense along with the Budgeting and Planning add-on.
What do you dislike about the product?
User interface isn't the most innovative and is under development. There is some work required upfront that requires users to answer key questions and is critical to the success of the product being used. That was unexpected, and challenging to end users trying to balance their normal duties along with providing business requirements. Adding licenses can also be an unexpected cost as they are higher than the initial purchase price and maintenance must be paid for the additional seats when obtained. Customers have no control over this and if not allocated in the budget, it can be a surprise. The in-house consulting services are excellent, however the rates charged are generally higher than 3rd party consultants they outsource to (which are former Deltek employees).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Electronic storage of critical documents supporting various needs to make quick decisions. Real time reporting allows program managers to see exactly where they are at all times. It is critical to have this information available to end users in a simple and easy to use system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are many products available in the market place. Deltek Costpoint meets and exceeds limitations of other products available. The core product allows any business to start quickly. The optional add-on modules provides flexibility to customize the system and maximize your return on investment.
The possibilities are Endless
What do you like best about the product?
I love the capability to look at my project data at specific levels or to roll it up to the top level. This allows management to see just what they need and not have a lot of extraneous data. It allows you to really personalize how you want your project information set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is closely related to what I like about Costpoint. You can easily get lost in the multitude of menus. If your are not careful you can easily mess up the whole process with one change. Although the error notifications are really good at preventing this from happening often!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The additional characters have given us more depth to grow and add new projects. We have been able to increase our report potential for project management by having a more detailed look at the project at specific times. We are working on streamlining our billing process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Deltek Costpoint is an amazing system. Make sure that you review what you need your software to do and then examine if it is the best fit for what you need. Look at your company processes to choose the best integration process. Meet with several integration consultants to find the one that understands what you company's needs during the integration and testing process. Also make sure that your staff is properly trained. Deltek provides many ways in which to gain the required training from Deltek University to webinars, white papers, and highly knowledgeable consultants.
Deltek Costpoint
What do you like best about the product?
Great way to organize information ranging from Finance to HR to even Contracting. I don't input any of the information but it is very helpful to me when pricing proposals because I get a snapshot of historical information on our contracts and can even use it as a job sheet to track how well we are doing financially on each contract.
What do you dislike about the product?
The consultants that set up our software for us did not do very well and so we have had to reach out to them constantly and they charge us each time we reach out for help. We have an experienced user that joined our team and she said the setup was done very well and it takes up a lot of our time and money to try and fix these problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking progress on our contracts by comparing how well we are doing financially with how well we planned to do. We do manual job sheets and I use Deltek to update them. We would like to eventually learn how to put budgets in if we can ever find help without having to pay a consultant thousands of dollars. It has been helpful to have an organized system to track our progress.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great, just make sure it is set up correctly so you don't run into problems while trying to use it!
Expense report is not user friendly.
What do you like best about the product?
I like Concur better than Deltek Time and Expense.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like Concur better than Deltek Time and Expense. Concur can accept different formats of receipts and can convert them into useful supporting documents. In addition, it allows users store receipts while on travel and before approval.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time sheet module works well, especially auditing features and being able to email those users who have not compliant with time sheet policy.
