Pros
"The stability of the solution is fine."

More Deltek CostPoint Pros →

"The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments.""The fixed assets, payroll, the data module, and user-friendliness are most valuable.""The system is easy to customize and has user-friendly access. ​""We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively.""It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company.""It is strong in integration.""I haven't used it a lot, but the best thing is that the processes are very detailed.""It's enhanced by a subscription billing add-on, to efficiently automate billing and invoicing, particularly due to our substantial customer database."

Cons
"Overall, the solution is very difficult to use and learn. The learning curve is difficult. Also, the GUI and user interface are not intuitive."

More Deltek CostPoint Cons →

"What could be improved is the functionality of Dynamics GP because it requires a lot of development by the programmers and the company in order to integrate into a solution.""As technology changes, I would say probably in the area of chart up account needs improvement because chart up account is a string. So if they make it more flexible.""Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises.""As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten.""Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications.""It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. ​""It requires a lot of expertise to implement.""The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved."
