Function Point Bewertungen und Produktdetails

The search tool. My best friend. I also like the forecasting feature as it's simple and easy to use.

when generating an estimate, having to select all service before they are reflected. wish there was a live chat bot for the times that i can't figure something out.

The speed at which I can input my hours for time tracking...The app is great as it allows me to input hours on my phone without having to got to my computer. What’s New with the Function Point App? Tap and Go Time Tracking. With your iPhone you can track your time to your tasks in real-time, by manual entry, or by starting a blank timesheet and filling in the details later. Our App Has You Covered. Any Time. Any Place. Even if you’re working without WiFi or data coverage, you'll never miss a billable moment. Create new timesheets or make changes to past timesheets, and they’ll be ready to sync when you have coverage.

At times the user interface seems overwhelming and a little complicated on desktop.

Tracking our employee's hours on projects. This has enabled us to plan ahead on projects and see the resources we are using. Easy to customize, it lets you quickly and accurately keep track of what matters most to your company. Need to check in on that upcoming task? Notes functionality makes it easy. Need a bird's eye view of tasks and workflow? Dynamic Gantt charts have you covered. Easy to customize, it lets you quickly and accurately keep track of what matters most to your company. Need to check in on that upcoming task? Notes functionality makes it easy. Need a bird's eye view of tasks and workflow? Dynamic Gantt charts have you covered. It’s all connected and it’s all right here.

The ease of tracking timelines and sub tasks as well as reporting at the end of a project completion. I also like that you can see all financials at a glance

make it simpler. A lot of function are hard to find within the program. Mobile is lacking a bit of functionality

Project management

My favorite feature of FunctionPoint would have to be the resource allocation report. Being able to see what is on the creative team's plate at a glance and adjust on the fly is an incredibly powerful tool that has allowed us to be able to take on a higher volume of work with the same amount of staff. It has also allowed our internal traffic to be done by more than one person without stepping on each other's toes because we can see in real time who is assigned to what. I also really like the reports where we can pull hours on clients and see how it breaks down and the calendar filters where we can see what is on the schedule overall or by client. We've been using FunctionPoint for over a year and there have been multiple updates to improve and add features to the product. I have participated in feedback groups several times and appreciate being part of the process to improve FP!

I dislike some of the system limitations. For example, tasks can be scheduled on days where there is no time available, you cannot set up dependent tasks (a task that is automatically assigned upon the completion of another task), you cannot have more than one AE (or internal contact) added to a company. The good news is, I know several of these features are in development, but I don't know when they will be deployed. I also do not like how support tickets need to be started via a form. Every time I call the support line I have to leave a message and be called back later. If I have a minor issue, I don't mind waiting, but if there is an issue that is preventing my team from working, I want an option where I can contact someone immediately to resolve the issue.

FunctionPoint combines together items that we previously used in separate tools. Integrating time tracking, project management and client management into a single tool has eliminated redundant work and improved our internal processes. With FunctionPoint we are able to see what work we have in progress and what we have done in the past for clients in a way that we were not able to before.

The multiple quick ways to search data and find your way in the software is a huge help. This software is very robust and helps everyone see whats going on.

The project scheduling is a bit clunky and the collaboration tools are not as intuitive as desired. I also find the batch invoice process to be a bit buggy from time to time. I believe this has to do with the invoice numbering.

This software solves the problem of connecting my estimating and project planning work with my final invoices. The benefit of having a strong tool that allows for customization is key to my business.

FP puts every data point of your business at your fingertips.

Not having saved reports for quick access to repeat searches for your data.

We are definitely more on top of watching our estimates and comparing our performance on the job tasks to the estimated totals.

User-friendly They appear to be really trying to improve and help customers

Timesheet functions are a bit janky and time-consuming

Helping us keep our projects organized both with internal time spent and external expenses

Ease of use - very intuitive. Time tracking is very good for the production team.

Estimating. I would like to see a better process for estimating jobs. Estimates touch a few people and there is no easy way to pass an estimate is progress to key people. Good software for a single estimator, not good for our model. Project level reporting is non-existent with regards to hours and financials. Would like to see this. Its only on the job level. Would like to see this on the project level.

Margins have increased and we have closed the gap between estimating estimating vs actuals. Accountability and transparency has also increased.

I like the amount of control you have over the task details. A lot of other Project Management tools just have the task as an editable line item within the job, without the option to add more detail or for it to live outside of a job. With Function Point, the task exists as it's own separate item. You can edit the details, change the job number, change resources and search by task number. I also prefer the Resource Allocation chart over the other PM tools' resource views. Function Point is very easy to navigate and to find what you're looking for. I prefer the layout and basic features over other Project Management tools that I've looked into.

The biggest frustration is that the resource doesn't have the option to arrange or view tasks by start date, only by due date. They need to click through to the task details to see the start date. This does cause complications on our end when working on tasks that span more than day. I haven't seen any other Project Management tool that includes this feature. You don't have the option to front-load, back-load or evenly disperse time.

Function Point allows us to have a very accurate view of what each resource is working on and when. One of my main concerns as a Studio Manager is that people are not overbooked or overwhelmed with workload. Function Point's resource view makes this much easier to assign work. When shopping around for Project Management tools, I was paying attention to the Resource view because I relied on it so heavily. Function Point's resource view was the best, by far. We're able to keep track of each job's status and the resources involved. The way jobs and tasks are built as separate items makes searching previous tasks and jobs very easy. We can look back on previous jobs/specific and see how much time was required, whether more rounds were needed and use this information to make decisions regarding new jobs.

Function Point has a lot of features that cover all departments within an agency; sales, account, creative, project management and admin. It is 1 tool that everyone can use to manage your project and gives each team the information they need. Once you get the hang of it, it is easy to use and customize. They had a great training/onboarding process!

It is not very visual...the creative team needs more gantt charts and visual ways of showing information. To them Function Point speaks in a language they are not as comfortable in.

Increase visibility on project changes, better able to track job profitability, and streamline with administrative needs.
