5 Reasons to Switch
1. Much Lower Cost of Ownership
The only IT you need is your web browser. Any computer with a modern browser will work (IE7,8,9, Safari, Firefox, Opera.) Just the savings in electricity alone from not having to manage CRM servers will pay for 2-5 read/write seats of Cosential. There are no other server costs, no IT staff resources needed, no patches, no upgrades and no complexity. Reports can be created by ANY user so you don't have to rely on your IT staff or consultants for this task. This also dramatically lowers training, implementation, and support costs. In some cases the total cost of ownership is a tiny fraction of the cost of Deltek.
2. Cosential Integrates with Any Deltek® Financial System
Our powerful web service API automates and integrates intelligently with ANY financial system. A simple open source application is installed in your location to read data from your Deltek financial system and is sent securely through a 256 bit encrypted connection to the Cosential web service API.
3. Cosential has a clear vision for the future and a commitment to investing in innovation to benefit your business
Cosential's system integration, innovative use of technology and insider knowledge of the AEC industry help us create the most powerful tools available. Because we're a privately held company, we put our profits back into the development of faster, cutting edge products to keep our customers ahead of the curve.
4. Ease-of-use
The reason why a typical user only needs one hour of training is because we have worked very hard to make an intuitive interface. Cosential is designed for end users and not IT. Deltek recommends approximately 3 Days and 10 hours of training for a typical user. (source Deltek website).
5. More Powerful
Cosential's Integration Exchange makes integration with 3rd party services and applications a snap. There is no programming required. Deltek requires expensive and time-consuming custom programming and consultants to assist in the integration. Cosential has a larger tool set and provides more of the functionality marketers and business developers need to win business. Deltek's focus and profit come mostly from selling accounting solutions. Cosential was designed by experts in the AEC industry. We specialize in your business's complete business solution.

"At Shea Carr Jewell we utilize Deltek Vision as our accounting system and we had the Deltek CRM and Proposal modules. We decided to implement Cosential for all of our CRM and marketing needs because of the power and ease-of-use of Cosential and it integrated directly with our financial system. Cosential's ease of use and online availability make it a great match for our firm.
Cosential helps our customers avoid shelfware and ensures that staff will actually use the software."
