Time tracking - like several time tracking solutions, FP uses a clock that will track in real time so that you do not need to remember how long you worked on a project to input later. Dashboards - I love FP's dashboards that let me track my personal utilization, the utilization of my team members and all of my open tasks. Reporting - FP's reports provide insight organization-wide into how we are doing and where we (as an organization) are spending our time. As with any reporting, though, it is important to manage the cleanliness of your data to make the reporting useful. Read full review Ruum by SAP supports brainstorming, and in the end, there is content management. Further, Ruum by SAP helps in task and backlog management. The processes are also well mapped. Goal setting and feedback tracking are also included in the feature. Read full review Cons Function Point Productivity Software Inc.
Function Point often provided reports that were inaccurate due to bad calculations. The support team would work with us to troubleshoot these issues, but the fact remained that calculations were wrong. Function Point was purchased by a new parent company that increased prices over their nearest, superior, competitor, pricing themselves out of the market. Function Point's interface is dated, as is its code base. New features are being implemented not as software revisions or upgrades, but as new for-pay features.

Workamajig was NOT a good fit, after over a year of back-end setup.
FunctionFox didn't have the financial integration capabilities we needed, but we used it for years and were happy with the service and support. FunctionPoint brought together the 30,000-foot view of the projects and resources with a simplified process for getting day-to-day jobs into the queue, which was essential for our organization.
Read full review The starting price for Ruum by SAP is very affordable, and there is a free trial, available. Further, Ruum by SAP has all forms of training, which gives full knowledge to people who want to work with the software. Again, backlog management, where feedback is issued on the progress of every task is a major boost from the application.
