Founder at Elxae Hub

A project management tool that offers great scalability and stability

The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement. From an improvement perspective, Bitrix24 should consider providing live and upfront support to its users, especially those who use the solution's free version. If you want someone to get on your platform for which you can't provide support, then it doesn't make that platform any different from its competitors. It would make sense to people if Bitrix24 could provide support for even their free version. It would be good if Bitrix24 added some accounting elements to the tool instead of just providing functionality related to bookkeeping alone since it can help Bitrix24 become a complete tool. During the setup phase of the solution, the tool should provide its users an option to add the accounting part, making it a complete solution.

A solution that gives you all the information you need to plan detailed projects

The initial setup was just a little complex. I rate the initial setup a seven out of ten. Deploying the solution took two weeks. While deploying the solution, we had two instances, one for the IT team and one for the business team. And we had to connect the two and explain things to the team. Only two people were needed to deploy the solution, me and another person.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It's a very easy-to-use product."

"It is easy to use and very stable."

"I am impressed with the solution's ability to customize workflows."

"Initially, Bitrix24 improved the way we operate because we were not previously using a CRM. Before Bitrix24, we tracked everything through Outlook. Now, we have a tool that will automatically put out reports for us."

"The solution's most valuable feature is its project management functionality...It is a pretty stable solution."

"The most valuable features are data entry, the pipeline view with filters, and the automation capabilities."

"Offers, a free version."

"The product is user-friendly."

More Bitrix24 pros

"We provided whatever feedback we had to the Planview team, and they went in and built those additional features that we requested. For example, they created a great way for our users to search for a specific resource, project, program, or role. We were not using some of the features, and we wanted them to not be visible, and they helped us with that. They also brought a feature to provide visibility into when a resource was never assigned to any task. There was no visibility to this before. This feature was really very good for visibility into the resource portfolio."

"We're still in an early stage. Things will change as we use it more. I did program reports that are important and that will provide us with value."

"Enterprise One provides a variety of types of resource assignments for assigning work to people. It's very easy and straightforward to configure these assignments. Planview allows us to see the entire workforce. We can see where our skill sets of people are, what they're working on, and allows us to make informed business decisions based on priority."

"We use time reporting. We convert time reporting into financial costs and do contractor and capacity planning for our resources. We track our work. So, that's the module we use extensively. As a matter of fact, we have upwards of 300 open projects at this given moment. It is pretty close to 300 open activities that are working."

"The solution is flexible. Planview is always introducing new releases and functionality, which ends up being beneficial to the company. We are able to do some customizations on our own along with our IT department, and that's very helpful."

"We do a lot of big projects which are pretty expensive to structure the product development around and see the progress. Every time we start a project, we have to expense the spends for certain amounts. We need some baselines, like predictive versus actual."

"The most valuable features are scheduling, resource management, and, from a project perspective, the functions like issues that change orders. They are valuable because, from a project management perspective, we use the workflows that we build for project management and do active risk management and issue management for the projects that we want for our agencies."

"The flexibility on offer is very helpful in meeting the organization's needs."

Cons

"I would like to see improvements with Bitrix24's marketing automation."

"It would be great if colleagues could get alerts via email when they are assigned something."

"The client interface is not very user-friendly."

"The solution’s performance could be made faster."

"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."

"The stability could be improved."

"Some functionalities of the tool required specific expertise. For example, the SIP Connector is difficult to install."

"In our organization, we feel that the UI and the functionalities for workflows in the solution need a lot of improvement."

More Bitrix24 cons

"We have required more time from our resource managers to spend time in the tool. The adoption has been slower than we would have hoped. So, I would think from a rollout perspective, if Planview could help us with material which gets non-Planview users or previously light Planview users to become more heavy users of the system, then this would help us with the rollout."

"The reporting is absolutely shocking. It's not good reporting and requires improvement."

"The reporting capability and access to the fields for our system administrators to have access to the data without having to pay Enterprise One to get the data that's needed to create custom reports for management to create reports need improvement."

"The content management definitely needs to improve. We don't really use content management for projects inside Enterprise One. We have actually switched to a SharePoint site. We have a feed from Enterprise One every night of all the projects that are created."

"The out-of-the-box reports, as far as I can tell, are weak. We've had to build a lot of reports using Power BI, which we connected to it."

"It could do with a quicker response time for some reports or portfolios."

"The solution needs to be better at accepting new ideas for upcoming releases."

"There's still a lot of reluctance within the organization. We're not using all of the capabilities that we have today. We're still doing our strategic and capital investment planning on spreadsheets rather than using the capabilities that exist within Enterprise One. I definitely need to leverage the experts here at Planview to help drive a culture change. There's just a lot of reluctance on behalf of people within the company to put data into the tool."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is quite average and not expensive."

"The product's pricing is okay for me. It is not expensive."

"Bitrix24 used to be cheaper, but now it's getting expensive."

"Bitrix24 offers an open-source option for small companies, but you can order a bigger range of services on a monthly or yearly contract."

"The cost is $2,500, which will be spread out over 18 to 24 months."

"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."

"Bitrix24 is a cheap tool. I think our costs are somewhere between $1,000 and $5,000 per month. There are no additional costs with it. We did put in some hours to clean up some project-related stuff in it, but it was not much."

"I use the free version. I sense that my company will need a license for the solution in a few months to use some features like lead management."

More Bitrix24 pricing and cost advice

"We recently did a new bundle for all of Enterprise One. It includes some of the newer pieces, like Projectplace and LeanKit. It bundled our CTM in with it as well. I think the total came out to be about $900,000 a year. This is for unlimited licenses."

"The licensing part is a bit costly in comparison with the other available PPM tools."

"I think all in we are at $33,000 a year and that includes Projectplace and Planview. We used to have the integration to JIRA, but we don't pay for that anymore."

"We have unlimited licenses for all of our functionalities. Since we went global, we went with that model."

"We have portfolio managers, resource managers, project managers, and time reporting licenses. These are the licenses that we have."

"When we went through that process, I believe it is competitive with others on the market. However, there are less expensive options available. It's a more premium offering at a higher price."

"With the costs, they were very understanding. Knowing that we were an existing customer, they were very much willing to work with us to make sure that we were able to transition to Enterprise One from PPM Pro."

"I don't know about the actual pricing. I have not come across any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
