We love the use of task management for staff and that our leadership can keep track of their progress and time.
I wish there was social media management as part of the software. We have a different platform for that and it would be great to have it together.
Account management was a big issue
Easy to use, reports are easy to run and manageable, love the ability to export to Excel or csv
Some reports only available in pdf format -- can't easily convert to a spreadsheet
We started with Function Point 2-1/2 years ago, and previously did not have any formal project management software. Everything from cost to time had to be entered manually, and sometimes twice. Now I can enter costs into a job and integrate with QuickBooks. Invoicing is much better, especially for multiple job invoices.
As a small agency of 8 people, making the change to a new system was a daunting task. It seemed like it would fit the bill, but I was worried about the learning curve and the what if I didn’t like it after we got into the thick of it. I knew, however, that this should be a good move, we needed to do this before we grow and add more people. The system has everything I need and much I didn’t know I’d want. Setting up was challenging but Jim our FP expert here (and the guy who discovered you) was chomping at the bit to get this going took total control of setting us up. Between the two of us we really rocked set up which means the system is very Mac minded. This year was our first full year on the system and everyone here loves it for many different reasons and we are still only scratching the surface of what it can do. Time keeping and invoicing is now a breeze, for me I have started to check everyones weekly time just to be sure everything has been entered, I caught days of missing entries, I had assumed everyone was entering time on a regular basis. Its like finding money!
I have no dislikes, the program does more that we could imagine, meaning there is lots of room to grow.
Too many reasons to say why I love this system. I know more, save time, can access anywhere-anytime. My key people can access everything if I’m not here. I especially like attaching printing invoices to the job so anyone can access it instead of me going through my files to find it.

Function Point is a one stop show for most things. We are able to manage a lot internally within this platform, and there are a lot of capabilities to it.
Tome entry within the platform can take some considerable amount of time.
Helps us organize internally
We use Function Point to organize all of our tasks, clients, vendors and billing at our company. I like that you can put the amount of time to each task that you complete, assign tasks that you can't do to other people and see a weekly view of the times. I also like that it is easy to enter client and vendor information and create expense reports and purchase orders.
I don't like that Function Point calculates time by the 15 minute mark. So if you've completed something in between, you either have to round up or down.
We are able to see how much time we put to different projects and tasks so we can appropriately bill specific clients.
The ability for me to interact with my team and keep track of project progress.
Not being able to see draft tasks on the work planning view.
Planning projects based on utilization, timesheet tracking, and tracking project progress are problems we have solved as well as benefits.

There are a lot of facets to FunctionPoint to explore and learn, making it overwhelming if you don't have the time for proper training. However, FP's representatives are wonderful and they provide a library of resources for learning.
