Aligns with agile frameworks for streamlined project management
User experience should be more intuitive. Currently, it's not that intuitive. Additionally, a lot of querying and customization is needed for reporting. If there could be some templates out of the box, it would be helpful. Making the report creation process faster and easier with drag-and-drop features would be beneficial.

Ensures data consistency and improves stakeholder transparency while needing pricing adjustments
It is beneficial to have the schedule updated so you can have control of the cost. When you have a change in the schedule, you can also make a change in the cost. For us, it is mostly important to control dates and to be on time, but also to know the cash flow. With both of our clients, they use Power BI extensively. Though it may not be the best solution, they have all the tools connected to Power BI, which they primarily use for reporting. The integration with Unifier, which is also an Oracle tool, ensures that the data is correct and timely. The connection between Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management and Unifier is not difficult to establish, and the information obtained is really reliable.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Managing product development and managing inter-team communications are also valuable features."
"The tool helps us achieve more within the stipulated timeline and budget."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Portfolio is the visuals it provides rather than Kanban boarded tickets."
"In a PC environment, it is quite stable."
"The solution is very powerful and the underlying structure of it is well done. The company behind the solution is very open as far as their whole ecosystem is concerned. They also do a lot of work in the training area."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Portfolio's most valuable features are that it's user-friendly and customer-centric."
"Jira Portfolio is useful for tracking time and hours. It's easy to manage, create tickets, and change the status of delivery reports. It's not complicated."
"The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure."
"It is very, very good in planning for large projects."
"The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure."
"The ability to streamline the process of obtaining signatures from our contractors is valuable."

"The integration with Unifier, which is also an Oracle tool, ensures that the data is correct and timely."

Cons

"The product's initial setup phase is complex."
"It would be nice if it could provide an end-to-end solution for a project."
"The initial setup could use improvement."
"The workflow needs improvement."
"Their interface is a little unique and I think that's partly because the core of the product has morphed into several sub-products, but the underlying architecture has stayed the same on all of them in that it was originally a help desk ticketing system. It's a very tech-focused product and that's fair given its origins, but if they really want to expand their community of users, then they're going to have to move beyond that a little bit and polish it up."
"Our major team does not control or manage JIRA server well since sometimes there is trouble using the solution, which is a problem. The solution's speed needs to be improved."
"JIra is very poor at reporting."
"We had to use assistance for the initial setup."
"There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs."
"There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products."
"They should work on integrating the solution with ERP."
"For us in LATAM, the pricing is extremely high. That is why I only work with oil and gas and mining industries because they have substantial budgets."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs."
"The reporting could improve project management. We need multiple source reports. If someone is new to the support it has a steep learning curve."
"The solution's user interface is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate JIRA Portfolio a five out of ten for its pricing."
"We only have nine people using it so we have a standard cost of $150 dollar per year. There are only additional costs if you exceed the limit of users, then you start paying by user. The cost is significantly higher."
"The price could be improved."
"I do not believe that the product provides value for money since I feel that it is quite expensive."
"The solution is offered at a high cost"
"Portfolio is well-priced - a license for ten users costs $100 or $150 a month."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"The pricing continues to get higher."
"Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is an expensive solution. There is an upfront cost to purchase the solution and then there are annual fees to use the solution."
"The solution itself is cost-effective."
"The solution is highly priced compared to one of its competitors."
"My company has made an annual payment towards the costs of the solution. Price-wise, the solution is okay."
