Amdocs CES vs. Deltek Vantagepoint

Amdocs CES is well suited for organizations looking for robust and highly integrated CES tools, I would definitely recommend it for medium or large sized enterprises. Is less appropiate for small business that do not have a skilled team in place to operate it and doing maintenance.

It is well suited to connecting customer relationship databases and a project lifecycle. Business development people and other personnel should be able to get good use out of it in their daily jobs and functions. It is helpful to keep a record of ongoing projects and new pursuits among the team.

• Is a very robust service, but it could be more economically accessible
• It could have more features powered by AI, Auto-Typing, etc for data input into the platform
• Could improve Amdocs delivery center

• Reporting is very clunky and anything but intuitive.
• Compared to Vision, Vantagepoint layouts are very cookie-cutter. The latest release allows you to create up to 5 columns, still, it is so much less customizable than Vision in look and feel.
• Customer service is poor. If you have a question or issue you can expect it to be addressed in 2-4 weeks, minimum.
• Software testing has been poor in the past. Too many bugs have made it through to release on things that should have easily been caught, such as certain workflows not working, etc.

The most robust tool available on market, highly intuitive, scalable. But the process to start operations and customization is quite hard/complicated.

It is ok to use; it is not the easiest to use in terms of usability and user-friendliness but it is not the worst. It still feels somewhat outdated. Many cloud options are cleaner or look more modern. But it is good enough and you should be able to get the hang of it.

Support is centralized in Israel, sometimes the time when we get answers are considered delayed compared with the price you are paying.

I would rate Deltek VantagePoint highly in terms of the overall support. You can receive support any time you need it and there is a representative from Deltek assigned to your account so that you can always get the help when you need it. Sometimes, they want to go more in-depth than I would like, however.

Amdocs CES is more robust, scalable and powerful. Although the project delivery method and high customizations / development to reach the final problemas are points of attention

Incentivized

The one-stop-shop of CRM, accounting, reporting, and planning is the biggest appeal for Vantagepoint. When you set up your system to provide a "single source of truth" it makes use of other systems impractical and obsolete. Other systems can provide a portion (CRM, accounting, planning, etc.) of what Vantagepoint offers in a single package, but very few provide the one-stop-shop Vantagepoint provides.

• It has empowered our organization to handle our customer requests without services interruption.
• The customization required to put the service operational, at the beginning, delayed some processes.
• Amdocs CES has helped driving innovation and aligns with our digital transformation objectives.

Incentivized

• It had no ROI for us
