Vantagepoint is an excellent tool for marketing to keep tabs on project data.

### "Very good tool, but has room for improvement"

August 28, 2025

4.0

I'm happy to have a program that can contain all our marketing data in (mostly) one place, making it easier to look for things. However, I believe there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Pros

It is my one-stop-shop for pretty much all project data for marketing. It's well organized throughout the various tabs and hubs, and contains a good portion of what I need. Although I'm not involved with its customization, I do understand it to be customizeable, though I can't speak to how easy it is to do so.

Cons

The resume and proposal building feature is not great. Coming from Unanet CRM, I was not impressed by how marketing content is created in Deltek. I also don't like the reporting--it's very clunky and difficult to do, not intuitive at all. I wish it was better integrated with our time tracking software, because it would be nice to see schedules and hours spent directly in Deltek, rather than constantly having to open the other program.

### "Overly Complicated System That Creates More Work Than It Solves"

December 15, 2025

2.0

Overall, my experience with Deltek Vantagepoint has been frustrating. The system feels like it was built for accountants and engineers and not for the average employee or manager who needs clear, fast, accessible tools. Even after significant time spent training and configuring, the software remains cumbersome, rigid, and inefficient. It’s not a platform that adapts easily to the way modern teams work. For the price point and learning curve, I expected a much more user-friendly and intuitive solution. Instead, it has become a source of friction rather than an asset.

Pros

The reporting features are robust, and in theory the system has a lot of potential for firms that need detailed project accounting. When everything is configured correctly, it can centralize timesheets, billing, and project financials in one place. The promise of having a unified operational hub is appealing, and some of the dashboards do provide good visibility.

Cons

The platform is overwhelmingly complex and rarely intuitive. Even basic tasks require multiple steps, and the navigation feels dated and disjointed. Customizing reports or workflows often requires an expert or outside consultant, which adds unnecessary cost. The interface is slow, cluttered, and difficult for non-technical users, and onboarding new employees to the system is consistently time-consuming. Instead of streamlining processes, it often creates additional work just to maintain accuracy and keep things functioning.

### "Great evolution of product"

November 20, 2019

4.0

We've been using it since September 2019. I like it but we need to work on using it to the fullest, so that's more of a 'us' vs. the product. It's currently missing features that were native to Vision, like pinning phases and sorting timesheets.

Pros

Cross-platform functionality, look and feel, integration of hubs, more of a 'everything in one place'

Cons

Can't yet sort timesheets; missing the "pin the phases" in projects we used to have; harder to look through certain features/screens because they're all one rather than tabs

Improved interface and needed to do so at some point - why not now?

### "A good project management platform overall."

April 2, 2025

4.0

Once I understood the platform it worked pretty well for me. I was able to use it on a fairly regular basis.

Pros

It had some good functionality, depending on the specific need

Cons

It really needed to be more customized, but overall OK.

### "Clunky, Disorganized, Dated"

April 11, 2025

2.0

overall, it was not a software i'd recommend. it was not userfriendly, hard to integrate with a CRM and overall hard to manage.

Pros

It integrated project management with payroll but it wasn't user friendly

Cons

it wasn't very user friendly and it required a team of consultants to customize it. it felt very dated.

### "Deltek for Billing Timesheets"

December 16, 2024

### "Timesheet Review Process"

May 12, 2023

4.0

I've always used Deltek products for timesheet input, so no basis for comparing to other software alternatives.

Pros

The software is easy to use. Learning curve was short to get started, and does not seem to have many if any major issues.

Cons

The look and feel is a bit difficult to get used to. Timesheets do not fit in one window, having to scroll side to side to see all columns.

### "New, but good"

April 19, 2018

3.0

Pros

Reporting is great in this software, much better than in Deltek Vision. Love that I can create better dashboards too.

Cons

The software platform is new, so still learning all the whistles and bells. Has some kinks, but in time those will be resolved.

### "Not the most user friendly"

November 27, 2018

4.0

Pros

The timesheet function took a while to get the hang of per my companies set up but isn't bad once you learn it.

Cons

The billing function is not very user friendly. It is quite difficult to navigate.

### "Great Functionality"

January 31, 2024

5.0

We use it everyday to track time, expenses, projects, and associates. We are also able to use an API to incorporate data into other software as needed.

Pros

It is easy to track time, expenses, employees in one place.

Cons

There isn't really anything I don't like about it.

### "Easy to Use Software from an End-User Perspective"

March 18, 2021

4.0

It's a great tool for companies that have employees spread out across many office locations. It helps keeps information streamlined and organized.

Pros

As an end-user, I find Deltek to be a simple software to use as far as entering and submitting my timesheets and expenses.

Cons

One feature that could be improved is the layout of the expense platform. It would be nice if there was a way to upload multiple expenses at once, and on occasion, I've had difficulty uploading receipts to the platform.

### "Timesheeting tool"

December 24, 2019

4.0

This is a great tool that I have no complaint about. Proper training on how to use them can be important

Pros

Keep track of a project in every aspect, such as status, budgets, and revenue. This is a tool that synthesizes a lot of information in one place

Cons

As an endpoint user (I am not an accountant), there are just a lot sometimes too many functionalities I realize some proper training how to use them may be needed and a routine of tracking say weekly can really capitalize the benefits of the software

### "Not worth the upgrade"

May 6, 2021

2.0

I am not satisfied with the upgrade from Vison. There appear to be many bugs and workflow adjustments that did not consider the end user during development.

Pros

The ability to send hyperlinks of particular records to colleagues is easier than having them search.

Cons

The overall interface is difficult to navigate as the fields tend to blur together and nothing really stands out. Additionally, the auto-save 'feature' actually increased the amount of clicks necessary to complete my everyday workflows.

### "Cloud based tool for an insight into projects"

January 8, 2020

5.0

This software is useful to boost productivity and integrated with accounting

Pros

It offers project status analyses in terms of project financials and performance.

Cons

Nothing I have noticed so far. This is generally a powerful tool for project planning, budgeting, and management.

### "Deltek for the 21st century"

August 23, 2019

2.0

Pros

It does seem like all industry/inter-agency needs are met as far as fields of entry.

Cons

VERY un-user-friendly. Still looks like it was designed in the early 90s. Only works on PCs
