"Very good option for "soup to nuts" project management software"

4/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

The multiple quick ways to search data and find your way in the software is a huge help. This software is very robust and helps everyone see whats going on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

The project scheduling is a bit clunky and the collaboration tools are not as intuitive as desired. I also find the batch invoice process to be a bit buggy from time to time. I believe this has to do with the invoice numbering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Function Point:

I would recommend to people considering this software to make a list of your top requirements and see if Function Point checks those off your list. If so, just get started with the software on those few things; eg. use it for the estimating and invoicing features and start exploring some of the added features as needed. You will stay on track that way.. This is very full featured software and can be overwhelming but don't feel like you have to use every feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

This software solves the problem of connecting my estimating and project planning work with my final invoices. The benefit of having a strong tool that allows for customization is key to my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great project management software"

5/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

At my old job, we used a paper system with folders and baskets. Things got lost, designers were confused, and it was a terrible system. When I started my job, we had Function Point, and I was amazed at how much easier it was than the folder system. It keeps everything organized and makes it so easy to use tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

The only thing I dislike is that I have more work to do since it's easier to people to assign me tasks! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We get more work done more quickly, and with fewer mistakes. It's so easy to go back and find stuff when a client asks for something from a few years ago. I love having everything in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible insight into job profitability"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

My favorite features are the profitability snapshot FP offers on a job and project level so we can better track the health of our jobs and projects. I also love the modular estimating feature because it radically streamlines the estimating process and with one click, we can generate and send an invoice to the client. And the ability for FP to seamlessly link with QuickBooks is invaluable and eliminates a lot of redundancies in our accounting department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

It took my team a while to get used to the busy interface and the many layers of information on any one job. These many layers make FP the not-ideal solution for managing everyday workflow for a high volume of jobs. It also doesn't offer a whole lot of customization in terms of how you can view information. However, overall, the switch to FP has been overwhelmingly positive after my team has gotten through the first 6 months of using it and really being able to explore and see all the reporting it provides and realizing how much it's streamlined the client billing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Function Point:

Do the on-site training even though it's more expensive because the hands-on access to the trainer proved to be imperative to our 30-person team being able to get up and running with this in under 30 days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The monthly invoicing process has become FAR more streamlined has been incredibly useful in managing client profitability. The Accounting department and the Accounts department are now able to communicate and operate within one program which has allowed us to go totally paperless with our invoicing and billing. And once we figured out the best way to structure how projects and jobs are opened, being able to print a customized project or job list is also tremendously helpful in being able to assign priority to jobs.

"As a designer, I have access to a fairly imited portion of FP but it suits my needs really well."

4/5

What do you like best about Function Point?

I like that I can see a more overarching snapshot of a project rather than just design. I also like the ease of adding and being reimbursed for expenses compared to how we used to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Function Point?

Being on the design end and not having access to everything on FP, I rely quite heavily on the to-do tasks. I feel like the t-do tasks are only used sporadically depending on the Account Manager. I guess I would like to see it be more of an integral part of creating a new project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
