Sentiment score
6.9
Users reported increased productivity, efficiency, and satisfaction with monday.com for Enterprise, noting significant intangible and tangible benefits.
Sentiment score
1.0
Planisware is highly valued in pharma for project management, though opinions differ on its financial benefits and effectiveness.
It is primarily used for the pharma vertical and related fields, and since we were running a full ERP digital transformation project in the life sciences domain, it suited that requirement very well.
Sometimes I feel that the ROI is not optimal because we are totally dependent on Planisware's system stability.

Jira's self-service support is aided by documentation and forums, though response times vary when escalations need direct contact.
Sentiment score
7.5
monday.com for Enterprise offers responsive, helpful customer service with quick resolutions, though some desire more personalized communication options.
Sentiment score
2.8
Planisware's customer service is enthusiastic yet dependent on costly advanced support, with some feedback noting varied response accuracy.
I did not face any issues with stability or upgrades.
I would rate their customer service a ten.
The support was good, but there's more space for collaboration that we can do internally through Planisware, which was not the case.
We experienced a couple of issues, and they responded and resolved the issues and bugs promptly.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score

Jira is scalable and integrates well, but flexibility and customizations can impact scalability, affecting cost-effectiveness and performance.

8.0
Monday.com for Enterprise offers scalability, customization, and flexibility, though pricing impacts smaller businesses; suitable for all company sizes.
Sentiment score
4.9
Planisware offers stable scalability on resourceful servers, with customization on-premises and strategic modifications for extensive user environments.
The scalability of Planisware is good, as when you want to implement changes, you need to manage the process with your collaborators.
We experienced crashes in the upcoming year, but these mostly occurred on weekends, which minimized the impact on our users.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
Jira is highly stable, with few issues often linked to user infrastructure, upgrades, or customizations, and cloud stability strong.
Sentiment score
7.9
monday.com for Enterprise is praised for stability and reliability, with quick resolutions to occasional bugs and minor issues.
Sentiment score
6.4
Planisware, especially in SaaS, is stable and reliable, with minor bugs, and praised by companies like Pepsico and Ford.
They have made significant improvements, but still, there is a long way to go in terms of their flexibility, adaptability, and usability.
Sometimes the ROI is affected because we are totally dependent on Planisware's system stability.
 

Room For Improvement

Jira requires improvement in customization, usability, integration, and performance, while users seek better training resources for seamless experiences.
Monday.com for Enterprise needs improvements in user experience, customization, integration, collaboration features, system reliability, and pricing flexibility.
Planisware needs enhancements in integration, UI/UX, reporting, accessibility, stability, collaboration, flexibility, and third-party system integration.
To improve Jira, maybe some AI features could be added.
The need for a stable connection is critical as there are network issues that slow our processes down.
I would like to have the ability to create more than two levels of subtasks in monday.com.
The integrations to Agile are essential; we had to do a full build to accomplish that.
We have experienced crashes in Planisware and system slowdowns.
The reports should be improved because all companies now need reporting, and with tools such as Grafana or Tableau, Planisware needs to add interfaces for data lakes since all companies require this.
 

Setup Cost

Jira pricing increases with user count and plugins, offering competitive rates but rising costs for larger enterprises.
Enterprise buyers find monday.com's competitive pricing justified by extensive features and scalability, emphasizing tailored plans for cost efficiency.
Planisware is a costly tool with licensing, setup, support, and training expenses, requiring strategic management commitment.
 

Valuable Features

Jira is praised for its user-friendly interface, customization, integrations, agile support, and features enhancing productivity and collaboration.
Monday.com for Enterprise provides customizable project management with automation, collaboration, and integration features for efficient task management and communication.
Planisware provides robust project management with resource planning, data integration, Agile support, and built-in BI tools for enhanced decision-making.
monday.com saves time and gets everyone on the same page within my team.
monday.com helps in quick decision-making by facilitating communication on the go through the comment section and email alerts when someone comments.
monday.com makes it very easy to input any information.
The tools communicate with other tools, making it effective, and when we have a new resource, we can add it and send it to the resource management team, who can view it in Planisware.

Efficient project management and resource allocation, but agile capabilities need improvement
One drawback with Planisware is that it doesn't have good features for test management or agile; it lacks many concepts in agile such as retrospective, velocity planning, and backlog view. Some features are still missing because they have introduced these agile modules only in version seven and are still improving that product, so I see a good roadmap on those modules from Planisware's end. I find Planisware's collaboration tools to be good but not great as they still have certain restrictions. It can interact with Jira, it can interact with ADO, and you can have APIs created to interact with your internal HR systems or other systems for data flow. However, the error messages or fail scenarios don't provide good visibility of what is happening, why errors occur, or why something is not working. Regarding scenario planning, I haven't explored much on that side. We have the strategic module, strategic planning module, but we haven't explored much on the other side, so I don't have much experience or exposure to scenario planning.
