Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Broadcom, ServiceNow and others in Project Portfolio Management."I like the way you can build the schedule by the Don't Start Before or Don't Start After values. You can use it to build your schedule based on how you change your dates. This is how it actually builds the schedule."
"It is well-established, reliable, and compatible."
"In the competitive landscape of project management and portfolio management solutions, Microsoft Project Server stands out significantly."
"Microsoft Project Server is simple to use."
"SharePoint site integration"
"The scheduling and the customization are very powerful."

"Resource allocation is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Project Server."
"Micro Focus Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) has a very strong workflow engine."
"Micro Focus PPM is flexible and easy to use. It's simple to customize and configure workflows."
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products."
"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."
"Has a powerful workflow engine that allows creation of workflow complexities and processes."
"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"It's a very detailed tool. As far as an enterprise is concerned, it gives you the flexibility to manage everything: portfolios, projects, finances, proposals, resources, and time... It takes care of even the minor details that need to be captured. The project management functionality is configured really well within the tool. That stands out."
"There are so many different pieces of functionality, and we use almost every single piece from deployment to demand, project, resource, and time management."
"SAP is gradually introducing more flexibility and customization options to the system, allowing users to adapt it to their specific needs."
"The integration portion with SAP models is valuable."
"The product is difficult to use for complex projects."
"EPM 2010 UI seems a bit dated now that 2016 is available."
"Improvements are needed in the technical support process, aiming for a better user experience."
"It may be considered expensive."
"The solution should be made more collaborative."
"There need to be more tutorials available to users."
"It is not updated in real-time. Sometimes it, therefore, is not accurate."
"The solution's synchronization with Jira Projects should be improved."
"I would also like to see improvement in PPM's reporting and alerts. PPM has reporting capabilities, including HTML reports and portlets. But a majority of clients will build their own reporting platforms, or they will use external reporting platforms like Tableau and QlikView."
"The user interface is very, very old and is missing some functions, such as, for example, re-do, follow, and share functions. The UI is not good."
"Micro Focus PPM should be less dependent on coding. It could also benefit from some updates to the software architecture. These have been on the roadmap for years now, but they haven't been released."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"We constantly put in requests for some of the things we need. One of those is being able to export just our standard request type to PDF."
"User interface continues to be poor. The product does not have a similar view in the different modules, e.g., staffing vs financial management, it looks like you are working with a different product and it is not easy to use or intuitive."
"The solution can sometimes be a little inflexible and a bit caustic."
"I was not involved in the initial setup. I know that the project involved a lot of consulting that took a long time."
"The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously."
"It would be valuable if SAP integrated seamlessly with some products like Jira and Bitbucket."
