Deltek Vision is a versatile software that addresses various business needs, making it a valuable tool for organizations of all sizes. Users have utilized Deltek Vision to complete weekly timesheets for project accounting, streamlining the process and ensuring accurate time tracking. The seamless integration with ADP allows for easy export of timesheet data and reconciliation of hours, saving time and reducing errors.

One of the key use cases of Deltek Vision is its ability to centralize data, providing a comprehensive view of the organization. This feature has been particularly beneficial for global organizations with multiple branches, as they can track time and expenses for billing clients while also storing and retrieving corporate history, project details, and client relationships. The software's highly configurable nature enables users to customize it to meet their specific needs and internal business policies.

Deltek Vision serves as a central clearinghouse for project-related data, making billing and data manipulation easier for project managers and executives. It facilitates expense report and timesheet coordination for multiple projects, simplifying billing and reimbursement processes. Additionally, Deltek Vision provides a centralized view of project status and financial tracking, improving project management efficiency.

Architects have found value in using Deltek Vision to manage projects, track progress, and ensure profitability. By integrating directly with timesheets, the software allows architects to track time for different projects, payroll, and submit expense reports.

Overall, Deltek Vision offers a broad range of functionalities such as time tracking, reporting, employee information management, project planning, accounting, and CRM pipeline tracking. While some users may find the user interface challenging initially, they acknowledge that the software successfully centralizes project information and provides access to more project details. Whether it's improving workload management or addressing daily accounting tasks like labor charges and invoicing, Deltek Vision proves to be an essential tool for businesses across various industries.

Flexible and Convenient Time Tracking: Many users have found Deltek Vision's time tracking capabilities to be flexible and convenient.

They find it effortless to integrate and import data from their financial management system and third-party intranet tool. This seamless integration makes it easy to work with data from external systems within Deltek Vision.

Customizable Configuration Options: Users value the ability to build out user-defined fields, grids, and Info Centers within Deltek Vision. They appreciate the flexibility to configure the software according to their business model and policy without needing external consultants.

Difficulty in Generating Customized Reports: Many reviewers have expressed frustration with the reporting capabilities of Deltek Vision. The default reports provided by the software often do not meet their specific needs, requiring customization. However, generating personalized reports can be challenging due to the categorization of fields, resulting in difficulty finding and creating desired reports.

  • The ability to build out your own user-defined fields, grids, and even whole Info Centers is a huge plus. We can build out what we need in-house, without needing to engage outside consultants for most needs.
  • The ability to create both user-initiated and scheduled workflows allows us to add intelligence to our actions within the system. We have weekly scheduled reports going out to the various levels of our organization, as well as workflows to trigger multiple field updates, alerts, emails, etc. to keep necessary people on the path and informed.
  • We have had the system for several years and have modified it to fit our needs. Over the years, Deltek Vision has rolled out several updates that closely mimic our modifications. However, the testing of their new updates is not typically stellar. I have to open cases to flag inconsistencies or bugs with new items, even years after they have been released. With them focusing on getting Vantagepoint up and running, those bugs are pushed to the back burner, and they can't give me dates on when they will be fixed, so we continue to use our modifications instead of their available options.
  • Their CRM system will have improved functionality in the new Vantagepoint system. Still, it hasn't been able to interact with Outlook to utilize the contacts, clients, or activities (calendar) across networks. This has been a massive ask from our sales force. We have yet to gauge the new functions and how well they work in Vantagepoint.

  • Ease of exporting Time Sheet data to ADP.
  • There are lots of good reports available.
  • Ease of Uploading Journal Entry information from an Excel spreadsheet saved as a Tab Delimited file.

  • Deltek is a very integrated system for accounting purposes. It stores documents as support for postings (e.g. AP invoices) so you can easily access the source information.
  • Time tracking for our consultants is a must and Deltek has a good platform for tracking time and for accounting for time.
  • Deltek has the ability to run almost any kind of report that you could possibly think of! There are fields for almost everything and if there aren't specific fields you can add them.
  • The user interface of Deltek Vision is less than desirable. It is clunky, hard to learn, and cumbersome to navigate between. Deltek Vision is transitioning to a complete online platform which we have started to transition to, and they have made that "prettier" but the functionality isn't as great, so far.
  • While there are lots of reports and fields that can be run, finding how to run or create the report that you are wanting, can be very challenging. Reports are broken out into categories and sometimes you want to see 2 different fields that Deltek hasn't put in the same category, and you can't do that. So there are times where I have to run two different reports, export, and then do vlookups or other comparisons to combine the information.
  • Deltek Vision has to be run off of a PC. It does not work on a Mac OS. Some firms may not mind that but as a Mac-based firm, accounting is forced to be the only PC's.

  • Deltek Vision does an excellent job of providing various methods to input time on various projects. It supports the web browser on the desktop and apps on various smartphones.
  • Deltek Vision accesses project data from a single database. So various project information can be recalled for review.
  • Deltek Vision can be implemented from the cloud so we don't have to spend time managing an on-premise server to maintain the software.
  • Deltek Vision's use of the desktop browser interfaces could use some major upgrades. It's not very user-friendly. When a field is left blank it would prevent the user from saving the timesheet but would not clearly inform the user where the error has occurred.
  • Deltek Vision should provide a simple method to print summaries like have its own built-in pdf export program instead of relying on a 3rd party program like Adobe.

  • Tracking detailed time that is tied to programs (we have hundreds of programs)
  • Reporting - the reporting is robust with several options
  • Access levels - certain people in the company can only access certain information so we can keep employee data confidential
  • Mac users have a different view from PC users and it is not as robust as what you can do on a PC.
  • You can only access the platform through Internet Explorer on a PC, which is an outdated browser not a lot of employees use for anything else.
  • User interface is a bit outdated, it could use a refresh.

  • Deltek vision is an excellent project cost accounting for any service industry where people are your product.
  • It was specifically designed for the A/E industry so not square pegs in round holes.
  • The implicit posting process helps when your resources may be limited to less than hard core accounting staff.
  • As DPS comes online this will be fixed but currently the reliance on Internet Explorer can be problematic.
  • Resource planning isn't as intuitive as it could be.

  • The links developed between clients, contacts, jobs, employees, and activities ... and opportunities are very nice
  • We are able to easily configure the info centers (data tables) to meet our business model and policy
  • We are integrated with systems outside of Deltek Vision. We integrate and import (nightly) with data from our financial management system. We are also integrated with a third party intranet tool. Very easily done with the right staff on hand.
  • Users complain that it is difficult to use, cumbersome
  • Reporting and query functions are powerful but not for casual users
  • The entire platform is changing over the next 18 months. Which means I will totally have to re-do all my documentation and training materials and provide enterprise re-training. This is like going from an apple to a pizza - 100% overhaul. as the administrator, not looking forward to it.

  • Deltek Vision is excellent at linking related content. You can start at a client, and jump to contacts, opportunities and projects.
  • Scheduled reporting - let Vision work FOR you. Schedule the reports and move on to other important tasks.
  • Search - Deltek Vision searches can be simple to complicated SQL statements.
  • A strength and weakness is the power of Deltek Vision. The learning curve can be steep.
  • Security - in a timeframe where ransomware is everywhere - additional security measures are essential.
  • Reporting across info centers is available yet minimal. ODBC access to the database through Excel has allowed additional reporting.

  • Deltek Vision tracks project information well and the users can easily see the project financial information.
  • Employee time and expenses are easy to enter using Deltek Vision core. Having the ability to enter and review detailed timesheets is a great feature.
  • A relatively new feature in Deltek Vision is being able to upload transaction backup documents. The transaction backup documents are also available in reporting. This feature has saved us countless hours of research.
  • Deltek Vision's CRM app definitely has room for improvement. The app is hard to use. It also doesn't include leads, which seems strange for a CRM program. We have stopped using it.
  • The Deltek Vision inventory reporting module could use some improvement. Being able to select transaction dates would be incredibly helpful.

  • The Deltek Vision Time & Expense feature is easy to teach and use and with the new iAccess feature employees can enter their time and expense reports from anywhere.
  • Deltek Vision has a ton of built-in reports and the availability to customize even more. The reporting is easily downloaded into PDF form or Excel which makes each report more versatile.
  • I would like to see more information on how to set up features in Deltek. There is quite a bit of information you can get on how to use a feature once it is up and going, but not a lot of information you can easily get on how to start from scratch.

  • The time sheet and expense entering are very detailed and users can log time from iAccess if they are out of the office as well as upload to receipts straight into vision.
  • It works great as a billing system. it's pretty straight forward and being able to run batches or also single invoices depending on your need is helpful.
  • It has a wide variety of reporting and you can also customize report to drill down and pull the info you need.
  • It can be difficult for new users and somewhat overwhelming.
  • You need to be familiar with customizing reports to be able to get what you want. The default reports don't usually provide what information is needed.
  • I really hate that we still have to use internet explorer to access vision.

  • It is a very detailed time and attendance system that works well for our engineering based business
  • It works well for our accounting department as a billing system.
  • It has many reporting functions to track our projects to let us know where we are on our budgets.
  • I understand that is it is not an HR tool but I wish it had an HR function to it so I wouldn't have to buy other software to get what I need as far as HRIS and recruiting needs.
  • While the reporting is good sometimes it takes me a time or two to run the report to get the data I want. Maybe easier reporting features.
