What Deltek Cloud Customers Need to Know: Costpoint Is Moving to Modern Authentication
What This Means for Deltek Costpoint Cloud Users
Costpoint Cloud users, Deltek will discontinue support for password-based logins to Costpoint by July 30, 2026. That means no more logging in with Database authentication or Deltek Cloud Active Directory credentials, the kind of passwords most of us have probably reset about a hundred times by now.
This move might sound a little intimidating at first (we get it, change can be scary), but it’s actually a really exciting step forward. Deltek is steering toward modern authentication methods that are far more secure, faster to use, and much easier to manage. Think of it as moving from clunky keys and locks to sleek digital passes. No more forgotten passwords, no more juggling multiple logins, just seamless, secure access.
The best part? This gives companies a chance to clean up old login processes and get ahead of the curve before the deadline hits.
What’s Changing (and Why It Matters)
Deltek is phasing out:
X Database authentication
X Deltek Cloud Active Directory authentication
Moving to these New Methods:
This shift isn’t just about security, though that’s a big part of it. It’s also about streamlined logins, reduced friction for users, and centralized identity management for IT teams.
Imagine logging into Costpoint without having to remember yet another password and IT not having to manage them all.
Why You Should Start Preparing Now
Change takes planning. However, rushing at the last minute can create disruption, downtime, and unnecessary headaches.
Starting now means you can:
- Review your current authentication setup
- Decide which new method fits your organization best
- Coordinate with your internal IT and Deltek teams
- Migrate users gradually (or all at once if that’s your style)
- Test, validate, and train your team on the new login process
Think of it as future-proofing your Costpoint environment, before the deadline sneaks up.
