Function Point Reviews & Product Details

We like that it seems to be designed by people who understand our business and what we need to get our jobs completed. I've used other software such as Clients and Profits, Advantage, Workamajig but those seem to be designed with the agency's finance department primarily in mind (guessing because the office manager is often the decision maker in purchasing these software) with project management very secondary. This is the opposite....the project management is very intuitive and easy to use and with still robust financial insight into the health of your projects and campaign. The integration with Quickbooks Online is great, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the notifications are robust, they're almost so robust that we end up getting several emails for one thing. We've learned to live with this, though, to ensure everyone who needs to know is in the know. Also wish it had an integrated media planning/buying component.

The logical structure of projects, jobs, and tasks, helps my team keep track of the many moving parts required to deliver campaigns over several weeks or months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is a little clunky and it's difficult to use this tool for communication between team members. Better used for project management overall than also a communication tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's an easy to use dashboard, with shortcuts that are extremely convenient Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy it is to communicate with my team members and keep track of projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be difficult to search for certain jobs, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Solid platform, never hangs up or runs slow; easy to use multiple time sheets simultaneously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Almost too many features, sometimes multiple paths to the same destination - this can be confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've used a lot of the project management tools on the market, but FunctionPoint has by far the best support team. They also release frequent updates that actually incorporate feedback from their users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FunctionPoint offers very robust features, which can be overwhelming to some at first. The workflow is not always intuitive, but I also don't think it's prohibitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the dashboard and how you can personalize it with features you use most, such as pinned notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that you can only input timesheets for the past 2 weeks using the dashboard's timesheet functionality, so I usually have to go into Weekly View. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Function Point has changed the way our agency manages projects, estimates, budgets, timesheets, and internal tasks. The dashboard feature is great for having all your info in one place. The tasking feature has streamlined our workflow and has made it easier for our designers to manage their workload and due dates.

The estimate and budget system is great and has helped manage, track, and forecast financials.

The support we received from FP experts when we first started using it was excellent. They were always willing to hop on the phone to answer any questions or to help us troubleshoot. Customer service is amazing.

User experience is great as well. being able to drag and drop files, quickly export PDFs, integrate with Quickbooks is great.

Coming from what we used in the past, Function Point is everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The on-boarding process was long and required one person on our team to be the expert in order to teach the rest of the team how to use. It took a while to learn how to use it and to change current processes to fit in with FP. And there are a lot of features that we don't use, but think may be beneficial if we had to time to review.

I love the notifications that let me know what is due today, along with the reports letting us know what's coming in the next week. This tool allowed us to get a better handle on the workload on each person's plate for any coming week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd love to see more customizable notifications for each step of the task management process that we are using. If there could be some kind of checklist functionalities connected to a task, that would be super helpful as well. We turn to an external tool for this piece - a place to store all of the tiny details that are needed to communicate between team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to customize everyone's dashboards. The Files system is also very nice in that I've never had an upload problem with it and it's also a great way of finding old files from previous projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The inability to customize task statuses and interdependencies of tasks, for example if Person 1 doesn't complete Task A, then Person 2 can't begin Task B. Task B should be assigned and available for review by Person 2, but it should be in some kind of "Holding" or "Waiting" status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
