I am a big fan of all the functions that this program has. It has been helpful to my company and me.

The customer service team is weak. There are also way too many bugs, and its syncing capability is almost non-existent.

Very disappointed with this program. I’ve been a long-time user of Act! but the experience it gave me over the past year has been awful. I am now looking for other software that can work the same way that Act! did.

I liked its capability to manage contact information, it keeps all the data I need in one place. However, this feature went out of the window when the entire system stopped working. I asked the support for help, but the solution they provided was useless.

The reporting sucks. As for the whole program, it used to work great but not anymore.

For our government contracts, Costpoint & T/e precisely manage project codes and timesheets, however upgrades cause a lot of issues. On-premise updates are difficult because of their complexity and user base, particularly for troublesome versions like 8.1. This reduces user confidence and lengthens the time between updates. To make matters worse, the expense reporting is cumbersome.

Our transition to COBRA has been made much smoother with the help of Costpoint's user-friendly reporting capabilities.

Running reports a breeze, and the options for report selection are impressive.

It can be a bit challenging to select a report that encompasses all the necessary information.
