"Functionally Uninspiring "

3/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

Time keeping validates how I spend my time researching and working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

Timekeeping :-( it's always going to take time so it feels tedious... Not in sync with the creative process and flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Function Point:

Better understanding of creative studios to integrate software with the way we work. So it's not an additional 'job' to track time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Function Point solving and how is that benefiting you?

The creative department tracks time for billing/estimating purposes. management uses it to see if we are efficient - read: actually working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent experience with software and reps"

5/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

FP allows me to be easily organized with all my clients- from proposals to invoicing, everything is there under their name. I can easily refer back to the net cost in the proposal and calculate our PNL quicker than ever. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

The last project management software that this company used was fully customizable so that it fit our brand and look. Although our company name is at the top of FP, I miss the additional customizable options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Much easier to use than others"

4/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

I like the control you have of a team and their tasks - you can plan their day and know when do get in extra resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

I really dislike how you can't copy information from an email and put straight into a FP task. so time consuming and un necessary :(

I find the financials not clear i.e. maybe Im missing something but the graphs are easy but the figure are not easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Robust and Thorough, but Needs Better UI and More Functionality"

4/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

My favorite part about FP is how thorough it is in addressing all activities of my agency, my employees and my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

The user experience can be significantly improved. Sometimes things take 4-5 clicks when they should take 1-2. The time tracking for example is very clumsy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Out of the Box Marketing Agency Tool"

4/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

My favorite feature of FunctionPoint would have to be the resource allocation report. Being able to see what is on the creative team's plate at a glance and adjust on the fly is an incredibly powerful tool that has allowed us to be able to take on a higher volume of work with the same amount of staff. It has also allowed our internal traffic to be done by more than one person without stepping on each other's toes because we can see in real time who is assigned to what.

I also really like the reports where we can pull hours on clients and see how it breaks down and the calendar filters where we can see what is on the schedule overall or by client.

We've been using FunctionPoint for over a year and there have been multiple updates to improve and add features to the product. I have participated in feedback groups several times and appreciate being part of the process to improve FP!

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

I dislike some of the system limitations. For example, tasks can be scheduled on days where there is no time available, you cannot set up dependent tasks (a task that is automatically assigned upon the completion of another task), you cannot have more than one AE (or internal contact) added to a company. The good news is, I know several of these features are in development, but I don't know when they will be deployed.

I also do not like how support tickets need to be started via a form. Every time I call the support line I have to leave a message and be called back later. If I have a minor issue, I don't mind waiting, but if there is an issue that is preventing my team from working, I want an option where I can contact someone immediately to resolve the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Function Point:

FunctionPoint is relatively easy to set up and implement. There is a bit of a learning curve to get your team up to speed on how to properly use all system features. I started basic and trained everyone on job entry and time tracking and then emphasized other features later (reporting, notes, calendar filters, etc.). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Function Point solving and how is that benefiting you?

FunctionPoint combines together items that we previously used in separate tools. Integrating time tracking, project management and client management into a single tool has eliminated redundant work and improved our internal processes.

With FunctionPoint we are able to see what work we have in progress and what we have done in the past for clients in a way that we were not able to before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Agile to a fault"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

Function Point is great for managing your team. Estimated hours, deadlines and billable vs non-billable time are incredibly easy to track and manage. Assigning tasks and new projects is a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

It is really designed for creative or professional (office) service industries. Actual hour billing equipment expenses and other heavy industrial applications are quite challenging to capture and track within the FP platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Function Point:

Understand how your projects are billed, invoiced and tasks are handed out so that when you create roles and rates it can all feed into each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Function Point solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need to keep my team on schedule, this helps immensely. It really becomes even a self motivator for your team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
