Overall Satisfaction with Deltek Costpoint

It is used by employees to complete their billing period time sheets, track billable hours, and feed into our enterprise invoicing system.
  • It's hard to tell. It's a poorly design application from a UX perspective.
  • Poor UX overall
  • not intuitive (e.g., confusing labeling and iconography)
  • too many clicks and steps to accomplish tasks
  • does not allow to delete rows that have not data at any time
  • does not appear to have been properly user-tested
  • It causes staff wasted time and frustration.
  • Filling timesheet daily or weekly is a task that organizations often have difficulty getting staff to do in a timely fashion, which causes billing and cash flow problems.

Did Deltek Costpoint live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Deltek Costpoint go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Deltek Costpoint again?

No

It's awful. Poor UX.
Alas the Help resources provided by our Service Desk group aren't good either.
In its current form, I would never recommend it. Rather I'd strongly suggest to look for another application.
