What DealCloud platform administration covers
DPA’s DealCloud managed services put day-to-day platform administration on a retainer. An assigned consultant handles user and access changes, configuration updates, reports and dashboards, and recurring data hygiene. Every new DealCloud and Intapp release is tested against your configuration before it reaches your users.

The impact of dedicated platform administration
Administration transferred.
Platform administration moves from your deal team and IT function to a named consultant accountable for delivery.
Continuity of knowledge.
An assigned consultant familiar with your configuration handles requests, so context does not have to be re-established each time.
Cover proportionate to your instance.
Support tiers are matched to user numbers and the rate of configuration change, so you are not paying for cover you do not require.
Data quality maintained.
Hygiene checks, duplicate monitoring and quality reporting operate on a defined cycle, so issues are identified ahead of a fundraise rather than during one.
Releases managed in advance.
New DealCloud and Intapp releases are tested and configured ahead of rollout, with changes communicated to your users.
Why choose DPA for DealCloud managed services
An assigned consultant rather than a ticket queue
The same consultant knows your configuration, workflows and history, so requests do not begin from zero.
Data hygiene included in the retainer
Administration services commonly stop at users and permissions. Ours includes recurring hygiene checks, duplicate monitoring and data quality reporting.
Releases tested before user rollout
Every DealCloud and Intapp release is tested against your configuration, with new features enabled deliberately rather than by default.
Cover that scales with the firm
Support tiers are matched to your instance, and larger projects are quoted separately so the retainer remains predictable.
DealCloud managed services: frequently asked questions

Most firms retain an internal platform owner to set priorities, while day-to-day administration sits with us. Firms with an existing administrator typically use the retainer for cover, data hygiene and release testing.
Tiers are matched to the level of cover your firm requires, based on user numbers and the frequency of configuration change. The tier is scoped with you and set out in the statement of work.
Yes. We begin by documenting your instance, its configuration, data quality and open items, then agree the run book and service cadence before assuming day-to-day administration.
We test the release against your configuration ahead of rollout, enable and configure the features suited to your workflows, communicate the change to your users, and advise on applying it effectively.
