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.

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.

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

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.
