We performed a comparison between Bitrix24 and OpenText Project and portfolio Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Project Management Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I believe that having one system that handles all of the functions that we need in a business, such as marketing, sales, pipeline management, project management, meetings, customer contact, customer feedback, social media integrations, and connections to our cloud data storage, Google, and Microsoft, is a good idea."
"Bitrix24 is ideal for creating a CRM platform. It can integrate some third-party solutions, and it's highly flexible."
"Offers, a free version."
"It's a very easy-to-use product."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its project management functionality...It is a pretty stable solution."
"I am impressed with the solution's ability to customize workflows."
"It is easy to use and very stable."
"We use many of this solution's features for communication and for process automation. It offers more functionality than a regular CRM."
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products."
"The portfolio management and the resource management are the key features."
"Has a powerful workflow engine that allows creation of workflow complexities and processes."
"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."
"I like the ease of customization from an admin perspective. I'm really excited about some of the things that are coming in version 10.0.3 as far as what admins are able to do."
"It is very important that the platform gives us a single place where we can measure progress toward goals, as we have weekly meetings with the CTO. We present these consolidated overviews and dashboards to him so that he has an overview of all the projects and can see the status of all the problems that we have and we are working on."
"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"It's a very detailed tool. As far as an enterprise is concerned, it gives you the flexibility to manage everything: portfolios, projects, finances, proposals, resources, and time... It takes care of even the minor details that need to be captured. The project management functionality is configured really well within the tool. That stands out."
"The client interface is not very user-friendly."
"This solution was built using old technology which is now mixed with new technologies. This can make it challenging to get new features live."
"In my opinion, everything needs improvement. It all starts with the user experience. It's extremely difficult to use, it's always lagging, It doesn't look particularly appealing, in terms of how it looks, and it is extremely difficult to locate the stages."
"We didn't have the ability to customize the solution."
"Some functionalities of the tool required specific expertise. For example, the SIP Connector is difficult to install."
"The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"It would be great if colleagues could get alerts via email when they are assigned something."
"The solution’s performance could be made faster."
"Currently, HPE PPM does not allow “Project” approval, but only simple “Demand Request” approval (mobility)."
"Reporting; need to be able to provide fancy reporting out of PPM, way it is done in OBIEE etc."
"The user interface is very, very old and is missing some functions, such as, for example, re-do, follow, and share functions. The UI is not good."
"Sometimes features in PPM don't work as expected, or our users request a new feature. Typically, our partner vendor can deploy those changes. But there have been a few instances when we had to raise it with Micro Focus because it's beyond the ability of our partner vendor. When we raise the issue with Micro Focus, it sometimes takes time because it needs support from other customers using PPM, not just our bank. It goes through a voting system. Other customers need to vote for the feature. The features that get the most votes will possibly be added."
"I was not involved in the initial setup. I know that the project involved a lot of consulting that took a long time."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"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."
"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."
