Deltek Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Deltek Talent Management to manage artist allocations and team building. From the allocation standpoint, I used it to manage how long a particular artist is on a job or across multiple jobs. From team buildings, I use it to add artists to any incoming or ongoing jobs that are currently active.

Pros

  • Allocations
  • Timesheets
  • Tasks

Cons

  • Filters
  • Job list can get a bit confusing
  • Adding people to jobs have been somewhat difficult

Return on Investment

  • One instance made it hard to track an artist's time on a project
  • Easy to adjust allocations
  • Timesheets easy to fill out

Compensation for our most outstanding employees.

Pros

  • It is very easy to know which employees have a detachment in the activities they carry out. What I like the most about Deltek is that it allows me to visualize in real time, the performance that each employee has had depending on the assignments fulfilled in the labor sector. The real-time reports are very detailed, it offers information on work time, the activities carried out, assignments fulfilled and not fulfilled, and it also performs an automated process to know how effective each of the assignments fulfilled has brought to the company.
  • It has excellent integration with our workforce management software. This integration is what has allowed us to obtain these great results, since it allows us to transfer all the data collected about the work of each employee, and automates the analysis of the data collected, providing us with a detailed report on the performance and prominence of the various employees.
  • The support and technical assistance Deltek provides is second to none. When I started using this software in my Marketing sector, I had several questions about the compensation system and how I could apply it to my employees. The doubts were answered in a live chat, with precise answers.

Cons

  • One of the main missing functions or feature that is not present in Deltek is the fact that I can manage all the talent of my employees from my cell phone. Currently, the Deltek Talent Management platform operates in the cloud, there is no application with which I can access my talent data in my sector without using my computer. The development of an application is very necessary, you could have detailed reports on the performance of the employees from anywhere if there was an application for mobile phones.
  • Regarding the functionality of Deltek, I have no complaints whatsoever. This service has allowed me to know what performance my new employees are having within my work sector and has allowed me to know which employees are standing out, to be able to carry out retention actions and to be able to provide special comfort to those employees. It's great not having any kind of complaint from Deltek.

Return on Investment

  • We managed to improve the efficiency of our workers. Deltek provided us with real performance results, enabling us to apply strategies and various methods to make our employees more efficient.
  • It allowed to know the effectiveness of each one of the new employees integrated to our Marketing area. Recruiting new employees was fairly straightforward, as we were able to screen out employees who were not delivering the required performance thanks to Deltek.
  • We managed to improve the satisfaction of our most outstanding employees thanks to the compensation system.

Would Recommend HR Smart as an ATS

Pros

  • The ATS made managing the sourcing process easy from posting open positions to different sites, managing the resumes and resume flow to managers and making sure the candidate has completed all the necessary steps (completed application, completed background screen, etc.)
  • The ATS was user friendly and didn't involve a lot of training to get comfortable using the system
  • The support/assistance provided was generally very timely if we encountered an issue that needed to be resolved.

Cons

  • I can't remember if the system has the functionality to actually board the candidate into the HRIS system or if we just didn't use that, but it would have been helpful to have candidates to be seamlessly boarded upon hire.

Return on Investment

  • Simplified/streamlined the sourcing process which shortened the length of time a position was open.

HRSmart - not so smart!

Pros

  • Not much - a very limited, ineffective tool. However, it is a very low-cost solution.

Cons

  • Consultative support - it doesn't exist!
  • Timely response to service requests (some requests have taken MONTHS to get resolved).
  • More robust reporting.
  • More transparency with system upgrades without blaming the client for making changes to the back-end when the upgrade has adversely altered the current functionality.

Return on Investment

  • Low-cost solution - reduced operating expenses.
  • Horrible customer service.
  • Limited efficiencies.
  • Not a competitive ATS solution.
