From the initial sales call contact through final invoicing and integration with Quick Books Online, fp. tracks all activities involving a project. That makes figuring out where a project is in the process easy, and helps avoid forgetting crucial things like billing a completed project. **What do you dislike about Function Point?** fp. has a lot of work to do in terms of project management and time tracking. The time tracking, in particular, is fairly rudimentary compared to tools like Harvest.

Changed for the better how we do what we do. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Susan L. | President, Graphic Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2014 **What do you like best about Function Point?** As a small agency of 8 people, making the change to a new system was a daunting task. It seemed like it would fit the bill, but I was worried about the learning curve and the what if I didn’t like it after we got into the thick of it. I knew, however, that this should be a good move, we needed to do this before we grow and add more people. The system has everything I need and much I didn’t know I’d want. Setting up was challenging but Jim our FP expert here (and the guy who discovered you) was chomping at the bit to get this going took total control of setting us up. Between the two of us we really rocked set up which means the system is very Mac minded. This year was our first full year on the system and everyone here loves it for many different reasons and we are still only scratching the surface of what it can do. Time keeping and invoicing is now a breeze, for me I have started to check everyones weekly time just to be sure everything has been entered, I caught days of missing entries, I had assumed everyone was entering time on a regular basis. Its like finding money! **What do you dislike about Function Point?** I have no dislikes, the program does more that we could imagine, meaning there is lots of room to grow. **Recommendations to others considering Function Point:** Why am I writing now after 2 years? Well, as I opened the program to start my day I realized I’m really on top of this now. It isn't forced “I gotta do this", or remembered “dam-it I forgot to enter...", its habit. Took a while but seemed after so much getting used to it I should finally let you all know me and my crew love it, especially me, the one who has to access and keep track of all of this. **What problems is Function Point solving and how is that benefiting you?** Too many reasons to say why I love this system. I know more, save time, can access anywhere-anytime. My key people can access everything if I’m not here. I especially like attaching printing invoices to the job so anyone can access it instead of me going through my files to find it. ## Function Point Discussions - [What is Function Point quality metrics?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-function-point-quality-metrics) - 1 comment - [View Function Point pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/function-point/reviews?page=4&qs=pros-and-cons§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-31+19%3A19%3A12+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=0c479b0c-8409-4805-be01-088ce6b6f991&secure%5Btoken%5D=ac633dcdb6d192e8c6ccdffb93fd6e5dca5f8c6699e211ed7b504036ecbdde6b&format=llm_user) ## Function Point Integrations - [Asana](https://www.g2.com/products/asana/reviews) - [Google Calendar for Confluence](https://www.g2.com/products/google-calendar-for-confluence/reviews) - [Intuit QuickBooks](https://www.g2.com/products/intuit-quickbooks/reviews) - [Stripe](https://www.g2.com/products/stripe-agentic-workflow-stripe/reviews) - [Zapier](https://www.g2.com/products/zapier/reviews) ## Function Point Features **Tasks** - Creation & Assignment - Due Dates - To-Do Lists - Dependencies - Drag & Drop **Customer Management** - Customer Profiles - Sales - Marketing - Client Portal **Projects** - Planning - GANTT - Calendar View - Views - Project Budgeting - Templates - Time & Expense - Methodologies **Project Management** - Project Planning - Project Tracking - Resource Definition - Resource Management **Resource Management** - Resource Definiton - Capacity - Scheduling **Accounting** - Revenue Recognition - Invoice Management - Payments - Project Accounting - Budget Tracking **Project Monitoring** - Baselining / KPIs - Resource Allocation - Dashboards **Portfolio Management** - Portfolio Definition - Portfolio Performance - Risk - Portfolio Mix **Analytics** - Forecasting - Reporting - KPIs **Generative AI** - AI Text Generation - AI Text Summarization **Administration** - Standard Integrations - Workflow - Access Management **Agentic AI - Project Management** - Autonomous Task Execution - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Natural Language Interaction - Proactive Assistance - Decision Making **Platform** - APIs - Internationalization - Performance and Reliability - Mobile - Offline Access **Generative AI** - AI Text Generation - AI Text Summarization **Artificial Intelligence - Professional Services Automation** - Predictive Forecasting - Smart task suggestions - Automated workflows **Agentic AI - Professional Services Automation** - Adaptive Learning - Proactive Assistance ## Top Function Point Alternatives - [Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)](https://www.g2.com/products/kantata-professional-services-automation-formerly-mavenlink-kimble/reviews) - 4.2/5.0 (1,503 reviews) - [Accelo](https://www.g2.com/products/accelo/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (661 reviews) - [Workamajig](https://www.g2.com/products/workamajig-workamajig/reviews) - 3.9/5.0 (298 reviews)
