Frequently asked questions

We've already invested in Deltek. Is it too late to switch?

We hear that a lot. The question isn't about sunk costs—it's about whether your current tool is helping or hindering your team's productivity. Most firms tell us they're only using 20% of Deltek's features because the other 80% is too complex or not relevant to their size."

Deltek is migrating users from Ajera and Vision to Vantagepoint. What should firms know before they make the move?

A platform migration is a natural moment to evaluate your options. Most firms we talk to use this window to ask whether Vantagepoint actually solves the problems they had with their current product — or whether it's time to switch to.a different firm management platform.
