I dont have an answer
Deltek Costpoint incorporated all facets of Gov Contracting and is always looking for ways to improve their solutions.
At time, patches or fixes are released which cause secondary issues that are not identified ahead of time.
None
Costpoint is a pretty easy system to learn and use . Many users pick it up easily and when comparing to their previous systems they like it
Some issues we have that are lower priory do not get looked at ever and falls off the radar .
The updates costpoint makes for major realeases usually have updates that been for users and make life easier on workflow
My favorite part of Costpoint is the manage project userflow screen that allows me to assign employees new tasks to charge time to
My least favorite part of Costpoint is that the manage roles screen is broken
It allows our employees to successfully charge time to individual projects and synchs properly with invoicing
It has Efficient Reports to Management Team.
It has Complicated Procedure to finish the task
Efficient Financial Data to Management Team.
Costpoint has all the controls built in that are needed to be compliant with DCAA. Other products have to be modified in order to be compliant.
Deltek is not investing in the payroll module. There are many requirements for payroll and leave that have to be done manually. Their union/wage determination needs MUCH work. We evaluated their HR Module and had to say no due to the lack of functionality.
Deltek is allowing our employees to enter their time in a system that is DCAA compliant, validates overtime, calculates leave per union requirements. Deltek is handling our project costs in a DCAA compliant method.
The project reporting is very comprehansive. The cost pool structure is very pratical. The timesheet and expense module are DCAA approved application.
It need more work on the user-friendly interface.
As a federal contractor, we need Costpoint to provide us contract specific comprehensive controls and reports.
I love being able to use Costpoint for all of our government contracts in one system. Being able to track them all, individually, as well as our staffing working on each, is tremendous.
Sometimes we use it so much it needs a break! Those days are not fun, but it always bounces back. I'm not a tech expert, so I don't know specifics on how to improve performance like that, but an improvement would help.
We are able to load and track all of our government contracts from project codes to time and expense to payroll to operating year cut offs and staffing numbers.
- Upcoming Deltek Harmony will definitely going to have user friendly user interface
- DCAA compliant POOL Rate computation and Planning Module with Project, New Business Budget and Org Budget is most useful module for finance team.
- Forward rate computation in Org Budget from planning module.
- Great software for accounting and maintaining FAR compliances in Contract module.
- Direct update of GL posting to project tables, this will eliminate the waiting time.
- Should allow to integrate the Costpoint with open source tool like Power BI so that can have Top Management a dashboard which is very limited in CER
- It is great ERP system to have P2P, O2R, R2R tracking for account and finance team
- The financial capabilities at Org level, Reorg Level, Project Level, Alternate Project level make it robust and very useful for multi fold dimensional reporting
- Deltek's planning module help to do Project and Resource planning, also New business planning ahead of time. It works independently and collobrate with actual data from Costpoint. The more analysis with data possible through BI reports help to take decesion faster.
I have used Costpoint for over 25 years. It is the most robust and customizable program I've ever seen for project-based accounting and finance. No other program can compare to the Cost Pool features in Costpoint for indirect rate management, as well as having the ability to perform all other functions needed for optimum financial reporting and compliance.
Very expensive to implement and takes a while to learn.
We use Costpoint for all Accounting and Project functions, as well as T&E and Procurement.
