Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Broadcom, ServiceNow and others in Project Portfolio Management."Has a powerful workflow engine that allows creation of workflow complexities and processes."
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products."
"I like the automated calculations, especially on the resource side. When project managers enter their resource requirements into their staffing profiles, they are automatically translated into labor forecast calculations. PPM automates a significant portion of the forecast calculations. Timesheets are also built-in. We automatically process time sheets and bill them accordingly."
"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"Overall, they have a very strong workflow management capability. That's a very strong feature because then you can model any process easily. Whether it is a demand management process, a pipeline management process, or your project delivery methodology, it is much easier because of their workflow management capability."
"Micro Focus Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) has a very strong workflow engine."
"The data provided by PPM is trusted and is available almost immediately; without trusted data there is very less scope of any tool to be successful."
"Micro Focus PPM is flexible and easy to use. It's simple to customize and configure workflows."
"It increased productivity and timely delivery of projects within a set budget."
"The primary uses for this tool are task delegation, generating reports, and on-time invoices."
"There are some limitations when it comes to attaching receipts. For example, if we are going to buy some non-labor-related assets such as hardware, we are not able to attach the receipts in the Financial Management module in version 9.41."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"We had a couple of issues with stability or performance degradation about a year ago, around the time of the initial rollout. Since then, we've only had two unexpected outages that were quickly resolved."
"The solution can sometimes be a little inflexible and a bit caustic."
"I would also like to see improvement in PPM's reporting and alerts. PPM has reporting capabilities, including HTML reports and portlets. But a majority of clients will build their own reporting platforms, or they will use external reporting platforms like Tableau and QlikView."
"Reporting; need to be able to provide fancy reporting out of PPM, way it is done in OBIEE etc."
"We constantly put in requests for some of the things we need. One of those is being able to export just our standard request type to PDF."
"User interface continues to be poor. The product does not have a similar view in the different modules, e.g., staffing vs financial management, it looks like you are working with a different product and it is not easy to use or intuitive."
"The timely reminders could be reduced from one mail a day to three mails in a week. This tends to fill up our inboxes a lot."
