"Customizable Reporting Enhances DCAA Compliance"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Deltek Costpoint?

I really appreciate the business intelligence capabilities of Deltek Costpoint, which significantly enhance our ability to track and report financial information efficiently. The software's ability to create custom reports is incredibly valuable, especially because many pre-built reports do not satisfy our specific needs. This customization feature allows us to tailor reports to meet niche or advanced reporting requirements, which is crucial for our financial analysis and decision-making processes. Additionally, I find Deltek Costpoint's adherence to DCAA compliance essential, as it offers greater assurance and compliance compared to our previous software, GCS. The initial setup was smooth and manageable, largely thanks to the support from Deltek, which made the transition easier and more straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deltek Costpoint?

I find the unbilled analysis report lacking because it needs to incorporate a project type logic, which is essential for accurate and beneficial reporting. Additionally, the Costpoint planning module did not meet our needs, which forced us to seek a third-party solution, highlighting a gap in its capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Deltek Costpoint?

I find the resource planning and forecasting capabilities in Deltek Costpoint to require a lot of work and could be significantly improved. The ability to plan by resource and have that time automatically show on their timesheet is lacking, which would greatly help each team member see what they are supposed to be working on. Additionally, the forecasting function, particularly in terms of project management, is clunky and slow, hindering efficiency. Improvements in these areas would make the experience much smoother. Also, the initial setup presented challenges, needing a team well-versed in understanding the database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
