Not a calendaring program . It focuses on listing tasks, simplifying collaboration, and Getting Things Done
LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general. It allows you to break down your project into multiple steps with best/worst case time scenarios and then gives you a complete picture of the project timeline and tasks in an easy to understand format. The reminders are fantastic! I have used it has a professional with a paid account, and also as a university student with a free academic account. I have used the timer function to record how much time I am spending on a task so that I can bill clients or to just to have it for future reference, it's a nice feature! Uploading documents really makes sharing and keeping things in a central location very handy.

Senior Tech Manager at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good integration with resource management and handles time management well, but the licensing is absurd
We did not purchase the agile package. I believe this relates to what we had. We had Planview and Projectplace, but not, the full agile package. We had cards in Projectplace, but we couldn't put them into Epix and then stories because they were part of the agile package. Planview turned out to be completely useless for my use cases because I needed to be able to take large, stories or large Epix and put them on a backlog and associate them with Planview work breakdown structure schedules. In Planview, we would have to migrate application A and application B, but we would be doing this for 30 different applications. In the absence of a way to represent large sub-projects in Planview and have them moveable in time, with the resources associated with them also moving as you move them, I had to work around that limitation and mostly work in Projectplace. That being said, I did not have access to the agile module, but my suspicions are that it would not have made much of a difference due to the poor integration between Projectplace and Planview. Planview is a resource management and project management system. Projectplace allows you to create boards and associate some of Planview's work breakdown structure as a top-level tree under which you can place cards, but there are many limitations because when you make a change in Planview, it is reflected in Projectplace. However, except for a few specific things, changes made in Projectplace are not ported back to Planview. At this point, they're two completely different products. The flaw is that there is very little integration between the two.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its dashboards and reports are the most valuable, and we are able to share these reports and other information with our leadership."
"The entire organisation is now on the same page, with one source of truth."
"LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general."
"Clarizen's slide publisher is one of my favorite features."
"I love the collaborative nature just from my role to help. I'm a strategist. I help manage those large strategic projects. Implementation is one significant piece of my role, but I love the collaboration that can exist within the tool."
"The workspace ease, navigation, and portfolios are the most valuable aspects of this solution. I just got access to the portfolios from my upper management, so I'm able to look at our specific SRE portfolio to see what's a priority, look at how many hours we've tracked, and things like that. I'm not so much included in the budgeting but it's important to see what projects are higher priority and so forth."
"It is a complete solution. It is very useful for the management of our internal processes."
"I would absolutely recommend the system to other users."
"From an organizational perspective, the transparency and accountability across a project and the work that needs to be done is just wonderful, and there's a ton of value as an organization for the transparency and accountability of work that needs to be done."
"The most useful features of Planview are its integration with resource management and the ability to commit and reserve various resources."
"Projectplace absolutely supports collaboration in real-time; it's probably one of the best tools out there for collaboration and it really helps to finish projects very quickly."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see more power and triggers in the iOS app."
"Perhaps my only comment is that it is not cheap but in saying that, it is worth every penny."
"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome. For example, I have a hard stop date and I would like a project to end by a specific date, but this is not how this solution works. It sorts of spits out the project date based on your resource availability, dependencies, and so on. This sort of project planning works in theory, but that's not always the case. It also relies heavily on resources entering their time into the system, that is, how much time they worked on each of the tasks so that it can sort of consistently update the project. I know that in a lot of organizations, including ours, it is almost impossible to get them to track the time. In terms of additional features, they can include more integration with Microsoft because integration is going to be a key functionality."
"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome."
"It is not easy. The deployment of the application and its functionalities are not easy. It is a complex process to create accounts, names, and catalogs."
"In terms of what could be improved in Planview Projectplace, it would depend on the purpose, because if you talk about resource planning, from my perspective, it's not the best tool. It would also depend on the company itself, for example, I've been working with another company and Planview Projectplace was needed more for workload and resource planning purposes, and I don't think the solution covered those purposes well. Its resource planning and workload functions need improvement."
"I believe that the graphs, reporting, and connection with the slides are areas that need improvement."
"We have a connection-related problem, which is impacting our daily operations, but we have had the same status for the last two months."
"We'd like to see a heartier connection between Projectplace and Enterprise One. We know that's on their roadmap, but they haven't gotten there yet. Planview could also make better use of Projectplace's template capability."
"The reporting end of it needs improvement. There should be more reporting, more data at your fingertips. It should be easier and a little more user-friendly. I know there is some there, but it's just how do you get more meat on the bones, if you will, of what's available."
"They should also improve the interface. There are other competitors like Microsoft Project for the web, Wrike, Team Gantt who have a way better, modern user interface."
"Planview turned out to be completely useless for my use cases because I needed to be able to take large stories or large Epix and put them on a backlog and associate them with Planview work breakdown structure schedules."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"In my opinion, the pricing is reasonable."
"I believe it is a good value for money for the service they provide and the tailored program. When compared to Microsoft Project."
"The cost of this product is mid-range. It's not too expensive but not the cheapest on the market."
"I think the price of Projectplace is highly reasonable for the amount of functionality that you get. We have what they call a FLEX License. That means you get Projectplace, Enterprise One, and Leankits all on the same license. That's great because then you can use the other products without any additional cost."
"I would say the licensing maturity was probably a three out of five. They have a long way to go before they can scale out and retain enterprise customers."
"It can be expensive, but if you see the functionalities and the processes, it's not as expensive as other applications. We pay about 1 million Mexican Pesos per year for all 100 licenses."
