Provides efficiency in metadata storage and implementation
Many applications perform similarly to Hive, offering metadata implementations. I'm looking into their advancements, such as aggregated joins and MBT joins. Hive's virtual implementations are evolving, and tools like Snowflake offer specific use case advancements. In future releases, the Bloomfilter function should be a part of Hive. Windowing functions should also be there. I would also like to see AI implementation.

Useful for resource and financial management but needs to change Oracle database
The solution helps with tech management. It has a work plan similar to Microsoft Project for tracking progress anywhere. It can synchronize with Microsoft Projects for updating and rebooting tasks. They can also assign tasks to team members who can update progress using timesheets without a sheet. It includes a Project dashboard for managing multiple projects simultaneously and program management for overseeing groups of projects. It offers various data metrics. It has project entities for controlling risks, issues, and protections. It can calculate costs based on resource tasks and compare actual and planned costs. The tool has features for scenario comparison, allowing us to optimize scenarios based on various factors. Additionally, we can manually optimize by managing resource availability, creating staffing profiles, and making payments to optimize in any situation.

Pros

"It excels in handling diverse data formats and is particularly beneficial for constructing a data lake for companies with mixed data types, such as videos and structured data."
"It is a good solution for us when it comes to metadata implementation. It's beneficial to have metadata stored in Hive."
"It excels in handling diverse data formats and is particularly beneficial for constructing a data lake for companies with mixed data types, such as videos and structured data."
"Demand, Dashboard, and Reporting are the most powerful modules for our customers."
"Project management, time and resource management, demand management, and workflow automation are the most critical and important modules that can make the PPM usage successful."
"Recent Program Management lifecycle, Program Management aggregation views due to interactive UI (selection of risks, issues, and changes in Program Overview) and “flash look & feel" of this functional chunk, which is different in comparison to other parts of HPE PPM."
"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."
"The demand, project and time management parts are the most valuable features."
"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"The solution helps with tech management. It has a work plan similar to Microsoft Project for tracking progress anywhere. It can synchronize with Microsoft Projects for updating and rebooting tasks. They can also assign tasks to team members who can update progress using timesheets without a sheet."
"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."
 

Cons

"For smaller datasets, it may not be as suitable, and its performance might not be optimal."
"For smaller datasets, it may not be as suitable, and its performance might not be optimal."
"In future releases, I would also like to see AI implementation."
"We had a couple of issues with stability or performance degradation about a year ago, around the time of the initial rollout."
"Features such as the chargeback mechanism as well as managing various partners and cloud service providers needs to be improved."
"OpenText Project and Portfolio Management could improve in several areas such as portfolio planning and resource allocation."
"Portfolio scenarios: This is a very powerful feature. However, it’s limited to analyses."
"Stops is complex and configuration is always needed."
"Budget management could be provided. Reports could be enriched."
"The user experience of the product needs to be improved"
"Sometimes, yes. Especially in a Windows environment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an open-source solution."
"Now, we also received an increase in the support license prices, without any advanced notice. At this point, switching to unify all our licensing under HPE and customer support has been poor."
"HPE PPM SaaS model is comprehensive, however, the base fee component has customer resistance to its recurring setup,"
"Support and license management are two hurdles for us. Every time we purchase new licenses, it has taken us half a year to implement those."
"We have an annual license, and it is fairly priced in comparison to that of other solutions."
"A large organization will find Micro Focus PPM affordable, but it may be a bit costly for a small or medium-sized company. The license is based on the number of users."
"There is an additional cost for product support"
"It is SaaS without a base fee."
