It provides analysis tools invaluable to proposal development. After decades of using Excel, and spending countless nights making changes, ProPricer was a dream come true. Pros I love everything about this software. it easily exports to Excel; it easily captures Basis of Estimates (BOE); it prevented my team from working all hours of the night to make simple changes like changing the Period of Performance (POP) or scaling hours. Cons I wish you could choose to export the pricing to Excel by time period (e.g. I wish the P Sheet could by by quarter or year instead of by month). Review Source KM Koren M. Pricing Analyst V Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Professional Pricing Alternative" February 3, 2020 5.0 I have used the software since 2005 at varying points in my career from buyer/implementer/administrator to my current status of user. Pros Constant improvement and support for the packages, ease of contacting EBS for personalized telephone support, ability to customize purchase package configuration, size, and pricing depending upon functional applications and number of users. Cons Report designer is still not extremely user friendly; too many trials and errors required for the average user to set up. No clear online instruction to move, size, and change columns to be active. Alternatives considered [SEER](https://www.capterra.com/p/39429/SEER-SEM/) Reason for choosing ProPricer Conference, training, availability of support, recognition in the defense industry... Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Koren, we greatly appreciate your review, especially the mention of our technical support services and software updates! In the future, we'll do our best to improve the Report Designer feature and its help documentation. Unfortunately, we are limited on what we can change in it, because our own team uses the feature to develop new system reports, so it must remain flexible. Our recommendation for your users is to attend a PROPRICER Report Designer training or contact our technical support team for assistance in report creation. NN Nermin N. Proposal Manager Defense & Space Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Needs easier user interface " January 30, 2020 3.0 Different report options Pros Accurate results with different reporting options such as summary, monthly etc Cons Not easy to use, better user interface, constant re-saving for every iteration Alternatives considered [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Reason for choosing ProPricer Government standard Review Source Response from Deltek February 26, 2020 Nermin, we appreciate your honest review!

On the site you have the ability to review each enhancement and vote for the ones that you would like us to work on!

Principal Pricing Analyst Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ProPricer Review" December 17, 2020 5.0 Again, even with my previous statement, I would gladly recommend this tool to any Pricing Organization. Pros When I first came to this company 23 years ago, we were not using Pro-Pricer. The tool we used was cumbersome and mostly a manual effort. The actual Pricing on a single multi-million dollar proposal usually had to be left running overnight and when I got to work the next morning it would be finished. It doesn't matter how large the proposal (even up to 1B$) it always take less than a minute to price. That is from the first time I used it in 1999. Cons Year over year, ProPricer has consistently updated the tool and for the most part I have found the updates to be useful to my job. The one glaring shortfall is in material. We have looked at doing material with ProPricer with each new revision, and our existing material tool still works better. Sorry, just being honest. Switched from [MPMM Professional](https://www.capterra.com/p/69810/MPMM-Professional/) We brought together the Power Users of our Company from two different sites and overwhelmingly they agreed that ProPricer was the best tool. Review Source JD Jim D. Sr. Pricing Analyst Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ProPricer Review" December 17, 2020 4.0 It is accepted by the Government as a tool that is accurate for Government Contracting. Pros ProPricer is easy to learn and use. The support is good. We can use it over our network. Cons Too many features. It is like Excel. There are too many features that we won't ever use. Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) The system imposes more controls over the inputs and rates. Review Source BB Brian B. Pricing Manager Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Industry Standard" December 21, 2020 5.0 Pros ProPricer is designed to meet the needs of end user. The flexibility of the tools allows for ProPricer to meet the various needs of customer requirements. I have successfully utilized ProPricer for large DOD, Commercial, and International pursuits, as well as small, low dollar spare part bids. ProPricer’s sortable and reportable functionality is key to customizing Pricing activities to meet the ever changing needs of our customers. Lastly, ProPricer Customer Support is second to none when it comes to meeting customer needs. I know that I can call or email and be working directly on a question or issue within minutes. When working under strict deadlines, minutes matter, and ProPricer delivers 100% of the time. Cons There is nothing that I don’t like about the ProPricer software, it is easy to use, easy to install, and easy to maintain. For my Company specifically, the only issue that I have is that I need to utilize the IT department for updating and maintaining the server and database. Therefore, when an update is released, I need to work with another department that may have other priorities, before we can update. The updates themselves are minimally invasive and can be rolled out in less than an hour across multiple users.

Prin FP&A Analyst/Gov't Compliance Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "From the "Wild West" to Standardization" February 9, 2020 5.0 I have used ProPricer with several companies since about 2004. Frankly, I'm to the point where I won't work for a company that doesn't use it. Using spreadsheets all the time just isn't the way to go anymore. Pros My most favorite part of ProPricer software is the ease and speed of creating a meaningful set of reports for a cost volume. I have blown people away with reporting into Excel with formulae and creating something that can go to DCAA for audit and so they can make their own adjustments. Cons My company doesn't have a very good way to import data into ProPricer (other companies I was with did) and that is the biggest Con right now. Each person estimating uses their own spreadsheet in their own way and we need to figure out how to get what they have into ProPricer. I wish ProPricer could standardize this. Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Gary, we love that you will only work for a company that uses PROPRICER! Importing data is something we've been working on improving. We're happy to say that the latest version (9.3.107) includes our new Import/Export Tool, which allows proposal data to be easily imported and exported between Microsoft Excel and PROPRICER. We recommend upgrading to the newest version as soon as you can to get this tool; it will help tremendously! MC Michelle C. Sr. Pricing Specialist Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "User experience focused tool" January 31, 2020 5.0 Pros EBS who makes ProPricer does an excellent job with providing user support in trying to figure out solutions to both unique and not so unique situations. Their frequent enhancements and improvements in new builds are a result of user feedback which shows that they are dedicated to making the user experience optimal. Cons I know this has been a subject of discussion before, but the lack of an "undo" button for inadvertent changes or deletions could be considered a minor con. I am aware of the workaround which is to make frequent copies of proposals. The other minor nuisance is that the logon and password aren't synched with the rest of the many applications I use at work. Possibly this is due to how my company chose to set it up vs. a lack of ability for ProPricer to be tied to our password synch program. Review Source Response from Deltek March 2, 2020 Michelle, your review is greatly appreciated! As much as we would love to include an "undo" button in our software, it would require sacrificing much of PROPRICER's performance ability. As you are already aware, making copies of proposals is the safest way to adjust data in PROPRICER, and it's likely that it will continue to be into the foreseeable future. For the issue with your login credentials, we will have one of our technical support specialists contact you to set up the Windows Integrated login option, which allows you to log in to PROPRICER with your Windows credentials. AB Andreas B. Team Lead Pricing Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ProPricer Review" January 31, 2020 5.0 Pros 1\. Fast and reliable pricing 2. good tools to analyse the data Cons 1\. not good at multi currency pricing in original currencies 1.1 the whole system is designed to convert into a single currency sooner or later 1.2 Interdivisional transfer does not account for multiple currencies at all 1.3 the curreny field is not analysable in pivot grid. you have to copy your currency over to another ressource field to make in show up in pivot 2. data input is notchy 2.1 you can not easily shift single ressources on the time axis 2.2 you can not copy from one task to another and change the timeframe to match the receiving task 2.3 if the recommendation for a field value is longer than what you want to put in it is virtually impossible to get what you want 3. Changing between different algorythms is unnessesary hard Review Source Response from Deltek February 27, 2020 Andreas, thank you for your very thorough review! We admit, there are some shortcomings with how PROPRICER handles multiple currencies. However, your feedback has been noted and it will be considered while we develop future enhancements. Regarding the rest of your comments, there are some new features available in the latest version of PROPRICER that we think will address some of your concerns. A member of our technical support team will reach out to you to find some ways that PROPRICER can work more efficiently for you and your team! BL Bill L. Financial Analyst Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Daily User" January 31, 2020 5.0 I've worked with defense contractors in the past that have spent tens of thousands of dollars on estimating a single proposal only to produce results that ProPricer can produce easily. Pros The fact that it operates as a relational database. Simple math and formula errors are eliminated. Once estimates are loaded, you can easily look at it from multiple points of view to spot areas of concern. Cons I'd love to see a quick keyword search box in the Proposal field. No real cons though. Review Source Response from Deltek February 27, 2020 We appreciate your feedback, Bill! In the newest version of PROPRICER (9.3.107) we have created a keyboard shortcut, CTRL+SHIFT+F, that opens the AutoFilter Row above any grid in PROPRICER, including the Proposal List! Any keyword can be typed into the AutoFilter Row, and the grid will show only the records containing that keyword. Also, to open the Proposal List in a grid, simply double-click "Proposals" in the Navigation Pane. FC Finney C. Pricing Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Standardized Pricing Engine " December 8, 2020 5.0 Very good. Like and would recommend it to anyone in the federal space that is involved in pricing and contracts Pros The ease of use and setup. almost tailor made for you. The interoperability of the application with office suite goes beyond explaining how beneficial it is to the finance and accounting teams. Cons the report writing should be made more user friendly. Reason for choosing ProPricer Did not look into alternatives Review Source LF Leslie F. PROPRICER Administrator Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "PROPRICER Review" December 14, 2020 5.0 The tool has allowed the business to quickly and accurately price multiple proposals over billions of dollars. Pros Ease of use. Intuitive user interface. Extensive "What-if" capability. Batch reporting. Cons Difficult to use the "fully-priced" Excel report option by end customers. Review Source KA Kenji A. Independent Cost Analyst Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good Solid Tool" February 5, 2020 4.0 Good solid tool with a bit of a learning curve. Once you get used to it, it's fantastic. Pros It's a huge step up from the tool we were using prior to bringing PP onboard. As an administrator and user I'm able to get all the necessary data to support everything from proposals to audits. Cons Report writer's still a little cumbersome. Not real pretty either. Reason for choosing ProPricer Tool had all the features we were looking for and we had an opportunity to see it in action while working on a proposal. Review Source SM Scott M. Lead Pricing Professional Airlines/Aviation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Aerospace Industry" December 8, 2020 5.0 I like ProPricer. It makes my job much easier than a home grown solution like Excel files. Pros It is effective in completing my pricing with ease and speed Cons The GUI isn't the most pleasing, rather boring Review Source JA Jenna A. Pricing Manager Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Reliable" December 8, 2020 4.0 Great overall. Pros It's reliable. I can always count on the tool to produce accurate data. Cons Could be more user friendly. Especially creating reports. Review Source KJ Kevin J. VP of IT Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Propricer for Pricing Contracts" February 11, 2020 4.0 Allows us to price contracts with multiple versions in a quick manner Pros Ability to price to the PWS level of government contracts Cons Custom reports are a liitle difficult to create. Reason for choosing ProPricer Company already had Propricer when I arrived Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Kevin, thank you for your feedback. We're more than happy to provide assistance on the creation of custom reports. Our technical support department is available 24/7, for your convenience: Toll Free: (800) 507-9980, or email support@propricer.com. JS Jason S. Director of Operations Defense & Space Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Solid Costing Tool" January 30, 2020 5.0 Pros The software is well-thought-out and set up for government contractors. Cons Customization of reports is a little challenging for entry-level packages. Review Source Response from Deltek February 26, 2020 Jason, thank you for your feedback! We understand that the reporting feature can be a bit overwhelming when users are first introduced to it. Our technical support team would be more than happy to consult with you and set up some custom reports and batch reports for your system. One of our technicians will be reaching out to you regarding this. Also, if you are interested, we offer a PROPRICER Report Designer Training, which provides in-depth instruction on how to become an expert with PROPRICER reports. More information on this training can be found here: https://www.propricer.com/training. JR Jason R. Pricing Analyst Defense & Space Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Software" December 8, 2020 5.0 Pros I love the ease of use and functionality of propricer Cons Nothing to think of it runs great and functions well. Review Source OI Olumide I. Managing Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Proposal Management Just Got Easier" February 8, 2020 5.0 Pros User friendly,great GUI & functionalities Cons Too much functionalities and non availability of other languages Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Olumide, thank you for your feedback. We're glad that you found PROPRICER to be a user friendly software, despite its extensive functionalities. If you find yourself needing to use PROPRICER again in the future, we think that perhaps a scaled-down version of the software may be a better fit for you. For example, Small Business Edition comes with less features, but keeps the same core components that allow you to quickly and efficiently price a proposal. If you would like to discuss the best options for you, please do not hesitate to contact us either by phone at (951) 693-0440, or by email at CustomerSuccess@PROPRICER.com! KL Ki L. Pricing Analyst Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ProPricer" January 30, 2020 5.0 Pros I like the reports that come out of ProPricer. It is very easy to manipulate data to show what you want to the customer Cons Sometimes the interface looks a bit cumbersome. The layout looks a little old as well Review Source Response from Deltek February 26, 2020 Ki, thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you find reporting on specific data in PROPRICER to be easy! It's also just as easy to customize the user interface layout to fit your preferences. Here is an episode from our popular PROPRICER Tips & Tricks video series about customizing the user interface: https://youtu.be/gToMjhEMXF0. We also have an episode that covers a feature called "Skins," which can be used to customize the look and feel of PROPRICER. This video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPVbAmyCGaE&t=3s. Something else that may interest you is our new internet-based product, which will be released soon, called PROPRICER EstimatorFLEX. This product uses cloud-computing technology to offer many of the same features as the main PROPRICER software. Also, this product can be used in any internet browser at any time! We'll have one of our representatives follow up with you to see if this information has been helpful. MC Mac C. Pricing Specialist Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Propricer is my friend" January 30, 2020 4.0 I have gotten very used to the interface and I trust it. So when I have to be confident in my work, i trust propricer. When i need to doublecheck my other work I use propricer. Pros The way I'm able to modify my reports is especially nice. The ability to use many categories to sort by, and especially being able to use many characters in the categories is great. Cons i just wish there was an easier way to copy and paste redundant information. Review Source Response from Deltek May 7, 2020 Thank you for your review, Mac. We're happy you trust PROPRICER enough to check all of your work to ensure accurate calculations! There are a few ways PROPRICER allows you to avoid having to copy and paste redundant information. Here is an episode from our popular PROPRICER Tips & Tricks video series, about the Add Copy and Copy Task Data functions: https://youtu.be/FSVpp8iFc7o. These features allow you to quickly expand a proposal by copying different tasks, making adjustments on the go and move tasks from one proposal to another, without having to create new items from scratch. We're going to have one of our representatives reach out to you to discuss other potential options as well. JR Jim R. Pricing Manager Defense & Space Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "ProPricer Works Great" January 30, 2020 5.0 Experience with ProPricer has been great. It is great that we can send an auditor files that have formulas active so that they can see how the estimate is put together and that they can manipulate it for their purposes so that we can come to an agreement on contract pricing. Pros I like that it interfaces with popular software for importing estimates (Microsoft Project is what we use). It is flexible so that you can set up standard burdening structures, but individual proposals can specifically modified by using overrides. Being able to export reports out to excel and having the reports formulas being active so that you can run different scenarios is a great feature. Cons I wish that the reports that were sent out to excel had a better formatting. It is cumbersome when data in different columns that should have the same formating and/or formulas are acutally different due to the software needing to merge columns together. In order to make some of the reports "presentable" a lot of formatting needs to be done. Review Source EH Eric H. Cost Estimating & Pricing Manager Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "PROPRICER is a great tool for cost/price estimating!" February 11, 2020 5.0 We needed a product that would streamline cost estimating and pricing functions and ensure estimates are reliable and consistent with company estimating/accounting system(s), and PROPRICER has helped with this goal. Pros PROPRICER and the Executive Business Services (EBS) team provide a great product and support. Their team seems to truly listen to industry professionals and is constantly updating its products to better serve both Government and Industry users. Cons For the most part I can't really think of any cons that I'm sure couldn't be resolved from more training and/or customization on my part. Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Eric, thank you so much for your feedback. It's been a pleasure working with you! If you ever get the opportunity to refer a government agency or contractor to PROPRICER, we would love to thank you with some of our referral program perks! LC Laurie C. Sr. Finance Manager Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ProPricer Works Well for Large and Complex Proposals" December 9, 2020 5.0 We really like the ProPricer tool and use it for all of our major proposals. It's nice to know that once you have the tool properly set up you don't have to worry about math errors, copy-paste errors etc. Our government customers like proposals done in ProPricer and often ask for the working excel files as part of proposal submission. Pros ProPricer setup at new sites is fairly easy to do especially if you are an experienced user but do allow plenty of time to do the setup. I love the pivot grids feature allowing easy data manipulation. Also like the flexibility to set up a proposal and slice and dice the output it many ways. Love the ability to generate several of the reports in working excel format! Cons I find the report customization feature challenging and cumbersome. It would be nice if ProPricer was a bit more compatible with Excel. If/when Tech Support is needed it can be challenging to communicate issues due to the fact that we cannot send files with company private information outside our walls. Review Source AN Andrew N. Lead Pricing Analyst Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "ProPricer Daily User" February 5, 2020 4.0 ProPricer is USG recognized tool for pricing our USG customer proposals - the accuracy and reliability are a welcome part of the new business development lifecycle. The auditable nature of ProPricer makes it a strong tool for USG business. Pros ProPricer is a powerful s/w tool for pricing USG proposals, with numerous reports available, reliable calculations, and a solid feature set. Cons Large scale data entry -- ProPricer tools for large data set entry are extremely unreliable and overly complicated to use quickly and efficiently. Also, the inability to copy/ paste entries further delays data entry activities, and report generation (mods, new styles, updated formats) is also overly complicated, which is not a time-savings for the user. Review Source Response from Deltek March 10, 2020 Thank you for your feedback, Andrew! If you upgrade to PROPRICER version 9.3 build 107, you will be able to take advantage of the new Import/Export Tool, which allows you to import a large amount of entries from Excel into PROPRICER. Also, you will be able to use our new Access Tags feature which can be used to easily organize your data. One of our team members will follow up with you, so we can set you up for success!
