Executive SummaryUpdated on Nov 4, 2024

Planview Portfolios and Planview Daptiv compete in the project and portfolio management space. Based on the comparison, Planview Portfolios seems to have the upper hand with deeper integration and flexibility.

Features: Planview Portfolios offers comprehensive resource management, time reporting, and project execution capabilities with high configurability and flexible reporting. Integrated seamlessly with tools like Power BI, it allows easy creation of custom dashboards. Users also value its superior resource tracking and management features. Planview Daptiv, on the other hand, is celebrated for its ease and customizability in reporting, allowing business analysts to generate needed data independently. Although its project planning and resource management tools may not be as advanced, it presents a more straightforward experience for simple reporting needs.

Room for Improvement: Planview Portfolios users suggest refreshing the user interface, enhancing customization options, and improving tool integration, particularly for reporting. Challenges with the complexity of setup remain. Planview Daptiv is critiqued for its limitations in advanced capabilities and lacks depth in capacity planning. It grapples with intricate setup processes and would benefit from bolstering its project management features.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Planview Portfolios offers deployment in public and private clouds and on-premises, giving users greater flexibility. Planview Daptiv remains primarily cloud-based. Customer service reviews for both are mixed, with issues of inconsistent support and turnover among support staff. However, technical support ratings are slightly more favorable for Planview Daptiv.

Pricing and ROI: Planview Portfolios is associated with a higher price point but justifies this through significant ROI due to its advanced features and robust integration capabilities, making it ideal for organizations aiming at resource optimization. Planview Daptiv, while more cost-effective with a simpler licensing model, may not offer the same depth of functionalities, resulting in potentially limited returns despite lower initial setup costs.

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

"I like the reporting engine, IBM Cognos, especially the analytics. That's a good tool. It's quite strong on the ideation and capacity-planning side, which is a huge plus."

"The powerful collaboration is definitely the most valuable and the fact that you can adjust flexibility to almost any methodology, and the easy creation of complete new functionalities without programming code."

"Changepoint gives us a view of the project status and needs very clearly, which are things that we used to miss with MS Project and Excel."

"It's difficult to pinpoint just one most valuable feature, as there are many features that can be beneficial. For the specific use case of my client's project management office, they found the project management features of the application to be particularly valuable, such as project boards, reporting, and the ability to customize views. Additionally, task management and project scheduling were also highly utilized. However, capacity planning was not used as much as the others, as there was a lack of support from executives to invest in training and implementing it due to a lack of processes in place. The project planning features, dashboard, and reporting capabilities were considered the most valuable."

"The timekeeping features are great and very helpful."

"Its view into resource capacity and availability helps us to manage work. In reporting, we use this facility to help with resource capacity and availability. It also helps to see how much we are using. We derive that information from the work and resource management screen. That is very helpful."

"The solution view into resource capacity and availability helps us to manage work."

"When it comes to managing project plans, Enterprise One is awesome at enabling us to see what stage work is at. I've always thought it was awesome because it's good whether we're doing a traditional WBS or we're linking in epics into projects that are supporting the programs and the strategies, I've always thought it was an excellent tool."

"Enterprise One provides end-to-end work management for the full spectrum of types of work in one tool. It affects our project management because our project management uses Planview to monitor their daily work. Every night it loads our SAP system and then they monitor the daily work. They use Planview as a full planning and monitoring tool."

"I would say it works really well for forecasting remaining effort, especially in terms of forecasting the dollar amounts. We've gotten pretty good at adjusting rates because we have a lot of contract workers."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is reporting."

"The most valuable features are the resource management, the time sheet entry and usage, and the financial planning. With our projects, we primarily focus on resource assignments, as far as determining the actual forecast and actuals of our projects. A lot of it is based off of the resources utilized on those projects. The time based helps us capture the actuals. The amount of time people are spending on working on their project tasks. Because they've built this into the schedule, so we can build the forecast. With financial planning, we're able to look back on what our variance is and if there is anything between the scheduled forecasted hours, dollars against the actual hours, and the costs that they utilize."

"It gives us the vast ability to churn out-of-the-box reports and have an overview about approach rates and resource utilization."

Cons

"I find the solution has an excessive amount of features. Many aren't even kept current. Some aren't useful at all. There's an overall lack of coherence within the solution. It can make the execution difficult. Many features can easily be eliminated and it would help streamline the solution. They should get rid of 80% of the features and then really focus on the leftover 20% to make it a really great product."

"Expense management, simulation scenarios, and budget control could be great and useful features to include."

"It would also be nice to see some improvements on the IBM Cognos Analytics. There's still work to be done on the analytics side of things, like your condition formality."

"The areas that should be improved in Planview Daptiv are a subject that can be viewed differently depending on who you ask. I feel they should focus on excelling in one specific area rather than providing average capabilities in many areas. For example, their project planning software is satisfactory but not as advanced as Microsoft Projects. The same goes for the capacity planning tool and reporting capabilities, which can be improved upon by using custom Excel spreadsheets or by hiring a business analyst for additional support. In short, the biggest weakness of Daptiv is that it does not excel in any one area and only provides average performance."

"This solution needs more standard connectors to other solutions."

"The administrative tabs are very confusing, especially in terms of configuring screens and users. It's not very intuitive versus many other applications that I have worked in the past. I have to go to separate sections than I think I have to in order to get to the place that I need to adjust something."

"The solution is stable. However, it's so robust, there's so much data, that it has the tendency to lag."

"The solution out-of-the-box that we established was insufficient. We had to purchase and set up OData. I don't believe that it's a great solution out-of-the-box but eventually you can get there."

"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting is not immediately useful and although it can be configured or customized, there are still improvements that can be made."

"We have almost like a third-party group who has to do a lot of our configurations. It's a bit painful for us anytime we want to make a change. The other issue is that we have different groups all in the same instance. So, if one group wants to make a change, it impacts everyone. Then, we all have to come together, to say, "Yes, we approve this change, or no, we do not." Thus, it has not been as flexible for us."

"I think some of the administrative aspects of it could be a little easier, especially when it comes to designing reports. The reporting coming out of it could be a little bit better."

"We had issues with the data rephrasing."

"Even though Enterprise One is easy and user-friendly, it could provide better training like a demo. Providing more tutorials or sessions would really help."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is pretty complex. Each kind of user is a different price. It's approximately $300 per year. They charge additional fees for technical support and other additional services."

"It's a yearly license, but it's not an open license. It's based on users and their roles. So your administrator is priced differently from your timesheet user."

"Our licensing costs are about a quarter of a million dollars per year."

"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 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."

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

"Our licensing fees are approximately $50,000 USD annually."

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

"We are on the Flex licenses."

"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."
