Deltek Vantagepoint vs. Salesforce Data Cloud

I have used Vision/Vantagepoint with 5 different companies. Where the business model is project-based it works very well. This is the rule for most AEC companies. My current organization does not really have a project-based business model as they have many, many small "projects" that never get entered into Vantagepoint as it would be time prohibitive to do so. This makes the use of the system very limited for all employees outside of accounting and unreliable for reporting pipeline and historical revenue data. This is not the fault of Deltek, however, just an observation of how it is used with my current company.

I would recommend Salesforce Data Cloud as an 8 because it is great for keeping track of customer and sale information, it is easy to use, it is easy to generate reports and it is user friendly. However, it is very expensive and does not integrate with other CRMs well

• Integration with other systems is really working for us. Also having models developed in Data Cloud and then use for servers, Salesforce sales and for Marketing Cloud.

• Customer Service
• Fraudulent Charges
• Listening to their clients

• Sometimes it can be very fidgety and you need a team of salesforce developers in order to implement the solution
• Can be expensive, but so are other providers

It is ok to use; it is not the easiest to use in terms of usability and user-friendliness but it is not the worst. It still feels somewhat outdated. Many cloud options are cleaner or look more modern. But it is good enough and you should be able to get the hang of it.

Because it is worth this, the analytics, reporting, CRM, security parameters, mobile support all make it this worth. Also, I personally believe it has high potential to grab customers attention and increase sales.

I would rate Deltek VantagePoint highly in terms of the overall support. You can receive support any time you need it and there is a representative from Deltek assigned to your account so that you can always get the help when you need it. Sometimes, they want to go more in-depth than I would like, however.

BQE Core. I think that BQE Core is definitely harder to use, and has a lot of features atleast from the users perspective that dont seem entirely neccesary. Deltek is very straight forward and easy to use.

I like Salesforce Data Cloud because like mentioned before, it is easy to use, easy to generate reports, create workflows, keep track of customer data, sales data, house data, etc. You can also import excel sheets with customer data as well and it will create the fields for you which is nice

• Provides a customizable option for many current and to-be-determined use cases.

• It's been really good because for example, now we can use some of the segmentation of our clients. We have all the models running in that cloud, so it's been easier for us having this information built and having the calculation of the segments that we want to use with clients.
