"The portfolio and technology management are well built.""Enterprise One has enabled us to eliminate Excel. We don't track financials anymore in an Excel format, which the company was doing before. Even now, being a new portfolio manager four months in, I'm able to just pick up my project. I'm able to see where I am right now. That improvised it to be more automated. The only missing part is the integration between tools. I'm not able to see my full schedule, but I know what are my important milestones are like watching the financials and all that stuff.""The biggest impact has been getting all these global groups into one space so we can even have intelligent conversations about what are we trying to accomplish. Before, it was just different regions doing whatever. Now, we're all talking the same language, and that's good.""Another good thing is that we can create custom reports, which is great. If I created a custom report, a tile that tells me how many people have logged in today. We currently have a little under 2000 users, and that's only users, we actually have integrations, that we created a custom form that sends hours directly to Planview. They're not using Planview directly, but they're sending their hours to Planview through an API.""The most valuable feature for me is the ease and customizability of reporting.""I would say it works really well for forecasting remaining effort, especially in terms of forecasting the dollar amounts. We've gotten pretty good at adjusting rates because we have a lot of contract workers.""In my opinion, the financial planning feature is the most valuable feature of Planview Enterprise One.""It has been effective for our delivery. It's given us much better visibility into what is being delivered and when."

Cons
"There could be an automation feature included in the product.""One area for improvement in the solution is the absence of integrated charts.""The product could be integrated with external platforms.""Adding more color options to the application would enhance its usability and flexibility, allowing users to better customize their content""There could be an automation feature included in the product.""Notion's UI needs improvement.""The linked view of database, along with the sharing and permission settings, are areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement.""It is complicated to connect Notion with external systems."

More Notion Cons →

"I think some of the administrative aspects of it could be a little easier, especially when it comes to designing reports. The reporting coming out of it could be a little bit better.""We do have some significant issues with our integrations that we're working through. Those are not as stable or reliable as what we would like.""The solution needs to be better at accepting new ideas for upcoming releases.""When it comes to reporting there are some challenges with integration.""It would be great to see Planview incorporate agile interfacing/methods in it. Like CA Clarity and other leading PPM tools – Planview should enhance or develop the interfaces to ingrate with other market leading Agile tools.""The lack of templates harden the initial learning curve.""Some of the out-of-the-box reporting is not immediately useful and although it can be configured or customized, there are still improvements that can be made.""The reporting is absolutely shocking. It's not good reporting and requires improvement."

  • "The licensing part is a bit costly in comparison with the other available PPM tools."
  • "We are on the Flex licenses."
  • "We have unlimited licenses for all of our functionalities. Since we went global, we went with that model."
  • "The cost of other pieces and integrating them in needs improvement."
  • "We have portfolio managers, resource managers, project managers, and time reporting licenses. These are the licenses that we have."
  • "I don't think we have necessarily purchased everything that I would have liked to have seen."
  • "We have several hundred licenses. It costs us several hundred thousand dollars a year."
  • "We overbought our licenses. We looked at our needs three to four years down the road and tried based our contract on that. However, we were over aggressive. We use about a third of the licenses that we have. We're looking to adjust the makeup so we can start utilizing the amount of money that we are spending. Right now, we're overspending, and my organization is not seeing the value in Planview because we are paying so much for licenses that we're not using."
