Best for agencies running estimates, projects, time and billing
Function Point puts CRM, estimating, projects, time and invoicing in one system for agencies. It costs $53 a user a month on yearly billing and has no free plan or trial.
Who Function Point is for
- Fits if you run an agency that bills for time and estimates
- Works for firms that want one system from estimate to invoice
Who Function Point is not for
- Pricey if you are small: $53 a user is about four times the dearer quarter of the category
- Not for you if you want to try before paying, as there is no trial or free plan
- Tight if you use QuickBooks or custom reports: those need Optimize at $62
- Watch out: the $58 and $68 monthly prices assume a one-year term

Keep Function Point, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Function Point you could make: tasks, Gantt & timelines, kanban boards, time tracking, invoicing, sales pipeline and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 106 of the 111 other project management tools grade higher. It costs $636 a year.
What you could make
- Tasks, Gantt & timelines, kanban boards, time tracking, invoicing, sales pipeline and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, QuickBooks Online, Asana and Zapier among them.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Function Point’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
