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. ### Most mentioned cons - 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. - The interface is slow, cluttered, and difficult for non-technical users, and onboarding new employees to the system is consistently time-consuming. - Customizing reports or workflows often requires an expert or outside consultant, which adds unnecessary cost. ## Deltek Vantagepoint customer reviews Showing reviews 1-25 of 490 (page 1). ### Like if you are a user of deltek vision - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Tiffany S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Logistics and Supply Chain - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The resources for a project can shared equally to each and every task using deltek vision #### Cons Limitation of deltek vision integrating to many other apps to ease performance --- ### Great Choice! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Deltek Vision is well suited for organizations that manage complex projects and require detailed financial oversight. Although it could benefit from a more modern design, its functionality remains dependable for project-driven businesses. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Deltek Vision brings together project tracking, accounting, invoicing, and resource management within one platform. The project visibility is excellent, helping managers monitor budgets and schedules effectively. #### Cons The user interface feels somewhat dated, and first-time users may require training before becoming comfortable with the system. Performance can slow when working with particularly large databases. --- ### Very good tool, but has room for improvement - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Mechanical or Industrial Engineering - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. 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. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### 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. #### Reasons for switching to Deltek Vantagepoint I changed companies, and this is why my new employer uses. --- ### Deltek Vision is great! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Michael Q. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Design - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I rely on its simplicity to minimize time spent on my administrative tasks as well as efficient company record keeping. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It is a serious improvement from the Delek version we have previously used. Ease of use and better visuals are the highlights. #### Cons All the issues I have had up until now has been based on user familiarity. Locating project codes and assigning to the correct headings was the issue. #### Reasons for switching to Deltek Vantagepoint The improvements incorporated in Deltek Vision over the previous version. --- ### Deltek Vision is a Great Administrative Tool - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Photography - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

It is a very secured service and the customer support is great #### Cons There is noting specific that I did not like about Deltek vision. It does take a little while to learn but that's all --- ### Good but here may be better.... - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Carra-Danielle G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Oil & Energy - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My over all experience with Deltek is good. Rarely had any technical issues and it is capable of supporting a very large team and projects. It is just a bit basic for this generation. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros Deltek was great for time tracking and collaboration. Probably not my favorite time keeping application but it most definitely gets the job done. #### Cons I didn't like the interface, it was hard on the eyes and not very user friendly. It reminded me of an old school system in look and in function. --- ### Controller - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Amir N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered The overall experience with the Deltek Vsision is good. The ERP system is designed for the construction industry and progress billings. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Deltek Vision is an excellent accounting software program for the project management and collaboration. The ERP Program is capable of handling hundreds of the project accounting with ease #### Cons As the Deltek Vision is a detailed and comprehensive ERP system, it is difficult sometimes to navigate with the system. It is also time consuming to complete the progress billing requirements for a customer from the system --- ### Strong Choice for Business Resource Management - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Benjamin M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Utilities - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Very logical user interface, easy to enter time and expense reports and provide comments within the software. #### Cons Graphic user interface was outdated, software was organized like Windows 7 or XP programs which can be confusing for junior staff. --- ### Deltek Vision Review - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Connie C. - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2017 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The value for us is the information that is available. We have been using Vision for over 10 years and the future changes will make it so much more user friendly for PM's and occasional users. #### Cons PM's have been slow to adopt due to the perception that is not user friendly, with the addition of iAccess this has been eliminated. --- ### A fine option for smaller firms who are not integrating advanced CRM options - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Shawna S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. deltek vision was better than other competitors but it has a long way to go to being a user friendly and top project management/customer database organization tool. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros i liked that it integrated time tracking with project managmenet #### Cons it was not very user friendly from everything from search to the userface --- ### Deltek for Billing Timesheets - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Vicky H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros used for time reporting, able to insert different categories and sub-categories, and descriptions #### Cons difficult to fix timesheets that had already been submitted. also, a takes time to fix the time inserted on the prior day --- ### See your Vision with Deltek!!! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Tony B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. This product is specifically designed to support the complete project lifecycle of professional services firms, Deltek Vision helps measure your most critical business functions. From pipeline building and client management to project execution and financial management, Deltek Vision users can experience measurable benefits immediately, including increased employee utilization, streamlined project management, reduced DSO and increased margins and profitability. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Deltek Vision's is a software solution that allows you utilize custom proposal modules and government forms modules to cut down on hours off of proposal preparation. Because Deltek is the "source of truth" for our employee history and project history we are able to easily and quickly pull information from Vision onto proposal templates in minutes. Pulling information from a centralized archive it gives our users confidence in the data, employee updates/feedback are made one time (in Vision) instead having to always start the process over whenever a new proposal document is presented to the employee and gives our marketing professionals the extra time needed to craft the proposal to meet the RFP and client requested information. We use Deltek Vision to support our Strategic Plan goal for the company growing and win more work! #### Cons The user interface is extremely difficult to get used to. Since we started using this software my group has received a lot of calls from people in my organization who are unsure how to do basic searches and will ask us for help/assistance because they'd rather not deal with it. The main thing that is not intuitive is its search function, which is critical. --- ### Comprehensive software solution, but plan on building your processes around it - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Kevin N. - Industry: Civil Engineering - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I've been the Vision champion in our organization since 2008 when we began to use it. Vision has been steadily improving over the past 10 years and also been getting left behind in innovation. Over our time with Vision we've evaluated other software at a few points and have not found a single solution that can provide a similar integrated experienced. The power of Vision and the reporting is built on Microsoft's SQL engine, but it does require users to be invested in learning it's use to get the most out of it. Without proper time devotion, training, and some trial and error it does leave users frustrated. Along with the power of the product comes a lot of over-complication and reported amounts that often aren't as expected or isn't fully explained or clear on where the data is coming from and what it means. This is probably the primary problem with Vision in my eyes - data labeled in one area of the program isn't the same as data reported under the same or very similar label in another part of the program. The end user experiences and ease of use is greatly lacking, but should be vastly improved as Vision is (finally) becoming modern and migrating from a .NET platform to a HTML/web-based platform. This upgrade shows promise of having better end user use and intuitiveness. We are hopeful that Vision will continue to be a tool for our company for many more years. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Powerful reporting and a mostly, all-in-one solution for managing our firm and projects #### Cons Usability. The lack of a user to be able to sit down with the product and pull the data they want without significant training. Data reported is calculated differently in part of the software - revenue in one area is actual billed amount while revenue in another is hours worked times billing rates. --- ### Used Vision's General Ledger primarily in my role to produce month end and year end financial stmts. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Susan M. - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The general ledger was easy and logical for an accountant. The work breakdown structure allowed for reporting consolidated reports as well as subsidiary level, office level, and departmental reports. Vision handled large amounts of transactions and data efficiently. Vision offers functionality to do time sheets and expense reports remotely. Vision has great security features that can remove access to certain areas or information based on an employees role in the Company. It is easy to remove rights immediately when employees leave the Company. In addition, roles can control who can make changes or post transactions. Vision allows for automated reporting. For example, an Accounts Receivable report can be automatically sent to an employee's email on a scheduled basis. #### Cons The software is not logical for non-accountants. The software is primarily for A'E firms but very difficult for those users. Most of the engineers are unable to write and run project reports. When they do get a report, the report isn't easily understood. The software is difficult to support internally and requires a database specialist to get maximum value. Vision contains a massive amount of data but the canned reports do not always offer the different types of data in same report. Unless you can write custom reports, you will have to pay expensive consulting fees. --- ### A Fully Integrated Solution Software with Great Features - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Imran S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Deltek Vision has a database where I can put all my information for each assignment / project. Deltek for me is a fully integrated service product that can provide Managers, Heads and other office staff detailed information about the financial status of any department or segment in real time. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Deltek Vision has easy to use tools that allow all the operators – from high level Managers to back office staff members the ability to view and understand where the company’s resources and project budgets stand at any given time. Deltek Vision allows a lot of customization and flexibility that can be very helpful for any individual in his company. One amazing feature is that Deltek Vision provides extensive functions of project management all in one single program like expense reports, budget planning, time sheets, auditing etc. Managing work utilization is very useful for me because a lot of my team members are spread in distinct locations throughout the country who are working on the same project. #### Cons A major flaw of Deltek is that the system's outlook is very outdated. I personally felt that Deltek Vision was lacking in the expense report department. Reports are very hard to export. Even so, when I export the reports to excel, the formatting is completely undesirable, and I must spend a few minutes to format them. --- ### Could be a lot more user-friendly - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Jeff S. - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The following is my opinion and I am not speaking on behalf of my company as most of my years with Deltek were before I joined Rockwell: I have used Deltek for over 12 years and my experiences vary by the module. Newer modules such as project planning or online T&E are notorious for being excessively buggy. For many years my company avoided project planning based on reputation alone. The latest version of the planning module also was introduced with a serious lack of error prevention and trapping - such as allowing project plans to be edited in resource planning while the user is in the plan. Although some bugs are unavoidable, they are excessive and notorious in Vision which is frustrating to the user. The help documentation is serious lacking in explanative detail and the search feature is abysmal - the results are often totally unrelated to what your search phrase is - and often it locks up before you get there. It is a shame because I think there are good features in Vision that people don't get to - such as workflow - because the poor documentation requires the hiring of consultants. Maybe this is by design, but it is too costly to keep doing this. The accounting module is an example of a module that is solid as are others. And I find the people that handle the help and chat services to be dedicated and as helpful as possible. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros Reliable for accounting and basic functions #### Cons Not user-friendly and requires a consultant to get into more complex areas unless you have someone on staff that has sufficient experience. --- ### Vision Essentials review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: bob a. - Industry: Medical Devices - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We purchased deltk vision module to help us do project and resource planning of our critical engineering resources. We are medical supplier and using deltek to help us align project planning functions to resource draw. Our business is very dynamic due to customer, regulatory and market dynamics. Needless to say what starts out as a plan can change many times over. The linkages between the planning and the resource capacity assesments and reports are great. The Planning portion of deltek seems underdeveloped. Simple functions like a undo button dont exist. Comparisons of users who lived in a MS Project environment prior to deltek complain about simple functionality. I know there are upgrades coming throughout the year and we are anticipating some of our frustrations might be resolved.. Will wait and see. We are on the last year of our contract and love the resource feedback that the deltek system gives us. The cost to doing that is too much time in the planning module required to get that output. When initially selecting deltek it was obvious to us that it was geared to more service industry sectors then to a R&D and manufacturing company like ours. Using it going on 3 years we have enough frustrations with the planning side that we are researching other options to understand if something better exists. Really hope the planning side improves and makes our project managers more efficient. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros See previous comments #### Cons See previous comments --- ### Deltek Vision REview - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Jagruti P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered i like working with Vision, once you get use to it it is very user freindly #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros i found it easy to use. even though this software was way too complex for our company . i found if you use it to the max ,its a great product #### Cons help desk is quite complex. and having a third party for training became quite costly #### Reasons for choosing Deltek Vantagepoint i believe that is was a software which was suitable for our company and had time and expense, accounting and CRM all in one --- ### I have used this software to report time and expenses for many years. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. It captures time and expense data very thoroughly. I like that there is a field for every detail you would need to enter. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros When configured properly this software is very user friendly and intuitive. There are a lot of features that not everyone will need but certainly useful if you take the time to learn it. #### Cons I can't think of anything I don't like about this software. The insert function inserts a new line item below instead of above the line selected but that is just a tiny bit annoying. I'm over it. --- ### Could build an aircraft carrier with this software or use it to run a small destroyer, depending on your needs. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Rob W. - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2017 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall as compared to the other 5 ERP systems I have used over the years I have to say Vision is one of the best out there, especially for project oriented tracking. Deltek is also a company looking for improvement and advancement within their programs. The new generation they are working on to Vision takes the program to a very modern and more robust place. Great things are coming! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Has the ability to be customized in many ways to improve functionality and process routine tasks behind the scenes with workflows. Great when you want scheduled reports to be pushed out to staff on a regular basis, can be either be emailed or sent to a dashboard. System is fairly easy to use and navigate once you get the hang of it. However, the size and capability can be off putting if you give too much access to none power users. #### Cons Although there are many reports and lots of options within each report they can also be limiting. For example if you wanted to run an A/R graph for aging you can only choose three options (Current, 30, & 60 days). Therefore if you have five options (Current, 30+, 60+, 90+, 120+) you will need to run two graphs to see all the info. However, if you have someone who know SQL you can design and write your own reports which is a plus. --- ### Deltek Vision ERP Implementation needs an onsite professional - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Katherine N. - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered The controller left December 31st. The company went live February 1st. I began February 6th and I had never seen Deltek Vision before that day. Deltek Vision is a powerful, project management software which can help you have almost real-time visibility into all aspects of your business. Hi, my name is Kathy Nixon and I am a CPA, a PMP, and a professional coach. Post-acquisition mergers of systems, processes, and teams is my niche. This assignment had me serving as interim corporate controller of a $130M+ Revenue company who was merging its three companies currently on Quickbooks all into one system, Deltek Vision. Greatest take-aways: 1. Designate a Subject Matter Expert. It can be a Deltek Vision consultant or a third-party consultant with heavy Deltek Vision experience. 2. Develop a Steering Committee across all company disciplines and meet weekly. Decision making and joint buy-in is important. 3. Communicate, Communicate, Communicate. Communication to all areas of your organization is imperative to the success of the implementation. 4. Train, review, test, train some more. It takes a village to raise this child. 5. Designate or hire a project manager. For success, you need someone focused on all areas of this software's implementation. Setup, testing of setup, training, input, verify input accuracy, invoicing, collections, accounting and financial reporting. 6. Expect 6 months (to a year) before everyone is onboard. 7. Develop a budget which includes 5 times the software's cost. Yes, five times. It is a pay me now or pay to correct it later proposition. Good luck! Wishing you success. Let me know how I can help. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 --- ### Customizable and Functional - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Isaac R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Civil Engineering - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

The way we can organize our pursuits, projects, and clients is streamlined. #### Cons I think there are some classifications and fields that we could use that speak to other databases within Vision. Being able to link certain items easier would be nice. --- ### Deltek Vision works when you need it too. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

They understand the importance of their software running efficiently for customers to have success. #### Cons What I like least is that we have to go through a reseller to renew each year instead of direct. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/reporting-tools/deltek-vantagepoint-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Deltek Vantagepoint Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
