Deltek Vision Review

PROS: One of the best things Deltek Vision has is its automated directory. The data is immediately stored and readily accessible once you start typing down the details and information. Another thing that I like is the customizable template for proposals that you can personalize with just a few tweaks.

CONS: A bit difficult for new users.

PROS: The aspect of this product that I liked the most is how I can customize it so that it works perfectly for the project I may be using it for. Because of how customizable it is, I don't have to work with multiple tools and can just focus on this instead.

CONS: While I really appreciate how customizable it is, it looks like multiple customizations slow down the software. I also found it tedious to have to upgrade all the customizations every time the tool had to be upgraded.

PROS: Deltek has made my life so much easier. It is where I store and organize most of the data I need for work. This is particularly helpful in my line of work where I need to access information from various terminals.

CONS: To be honest, the ease of use of this software will depend heavily on the user. Basically, you get what you input when using Deltek. So when you do give it a try, make sure that you are meticulous in putting in information as well as taking note of the fields that you input them in. Trust me, I’ve learned this the hard way. If you don’t take the time to carefully go through the information cells, then you better prepare for a long afternoon of searching for your data. Still, if Deltek could make our lives easier by improving its interface, I wouldn’t complain too.

PROS: I always deal with reports and I like how data is easily accessible for assessments and reports. It saves me a lot of time in checking & balancing records as data is automatically channeled for regular reports to your CRM and Accounting for payslips and salaries.

CONS: It took me a while to get used to navigating the program. Beginners may find it difficult at first but it's worth the effort.

PROS: The environment is fairly easy to manipulate. Everything is just within reach—from the data that I input all the way to the reports that I generate from it.

CONS: Maybe this owes to my overcrowded database, but it can be difficult to retrieve data from my earlier transactions

PROS: With Deltek Vision, I can open three databases at the same time. One can have timesheets up with projects information and employee data online simultaneously. I do not have to switch apps and log in or out. Furthermore, pulling up the information is very easy. You can also filter data. The information pulled up can have permission restrictions. It helps keep your data safe. Before switching to Vision we have used another program for our database. Good thing that Vision can access them.

CONS: If I can remember correctly, there is a steep learning curve. There are many ways to pull up information and different filters. Adequate training time is required for an individual. So, when first switching to Vision, businesses need to keep this in mind and have training sessions for users.

PROS: My business has been running smoothly since I tried Deltek Visions in our operations, its got all the modules I need for my projects, from company records to proposals, this software has it all down to the last detail. I can’t imagine doing work without this, it literally took off the load off my shoulders.

CONS: I think the software needs to get an update, there are a few glitches that require attention

PROS: What I appreciate most about this tool is how information is made easily accessible. Our company didn't have to contend with a firewall while using this so all the information we needed could be accessed really easily. Because of that, we were able to align this toll with our goals, branding, and needs.

CONS: Customer support can definitely be improved. I've found that the first level of their customer support has a hard time understanding some of my concerns. If I had not insisted on it, they would not have transferred me to a higher level.

PROS: Clear interface that can be used by everyone, those who have knowledge in technology and even those who don’t have so much experience with technology. It is very helpful tool for performing data, to get the information they need. We don’t need technical support anymore.

CONS: I don’t understand all the filters we have for data entry and data mining. Also, I have some issues when I need to copy-paste and update the data, when I do this everything moves down and I have to search for it and find where it is starting from the top of the list so I can add the information.

PROS: My favorite module is the Leads module. Before, we find it very hard to track leads as we were only using spreadsheets. Now, everything can be accessed and updated using the lead module. IT works great this way. Also, we use Vision to track other aspects such as projects and clients. The reporting generation module is the bomb. Very easy to use.

CONS: Nothing is to dislike about the solution. There are of course some learning curve about features and functions. This is not due to the system being difficult. I think it was just us. We were not used to using such software. For our leads module, we had to figure out how mandatory fields work. This helped us keep our projects running efficiently especially when updating information about leads.

PROS: Deltek Vision offers great options for project management purposes and keeps everything in one program. You can find everything in one place including timesheets, reports, budget and work planning, accounting and etc. Work management via Deltek is very useful especially if your team is from all around the world, they are able to work on same project by using this product. You can track your members and know who is assigned, how many hours they have worked or need for specific project, billing rate and many other useful information. You should use the reporting feature for checking the progress of the project, and you are even able to see how much you have spent and who spent, how many hours on which tasks. You are even able to keep records of the projects that each member has worked on, so you can easily build a resume.

CONS: They need to make the software more intuitive, if you want to use this program then you will need at least one day of training. It really has many functions, features and options and that is great but you cannot understand them on your own.

PROS: Project and back office managers will definitely appreciate how this tool makes everything transparent. Because I can immediately see how any segment is doing financially at any time, I am able to effectively plan ahead without any hesitation.

CONS: I think the scheduling of upgrades and improvements can be done more efficiently and effectively. You can't blame users if they worry about losing their back office when an upgrade is announced.

PROS: Deltek Vision is helpful in tracking various aspects of your projects from time to other resources. The information is handled well and is presented in a way that is easily understood. You can find the information very easily. The ability to copy information from prior timesheets make using the platform very useful.

CONS: The user interface is a bit old. It could use some tweaking. Also, I would love to have the ability to choose which screen or information to see first when booting up. I hope they would add this customization capability.

PROS: I use this program for just about everything! If you are looking for an all-encompassing software to help you increase efficiency and even profit, then you should try Deltek! From logging your hours to generating invoices, and even putting out reports, Deltek can do all this for you.

CONS: We need a more thorough tracker for our company’s expenditure. We know that this isn’t exactly Deltek’s stronger suit this is why we use a different solution just for this purpose.
