The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Deltek not one product but a portfolio, including Costpoint, Vantagepoint, Maconomy, Ajera, ComputerEase, GovWin IQ and Replicon, so the right choice depends on the industry before the feature set; Global Shop Solutions no price or price range is published; the pricing page collects business details and returns a quote instead
  • They diverge on capability: Deltek covers Project accounting, Global Shop Solutions covers Financial management.
