We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products.""The data provided by PPM is trusted and is available almost immediately; without trusted data there is very less scope of any tool to be successful.""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.""There are so many different pieces of functionality, and we use almost every single piece from deployment to demand, project, resource, and time management.""Overall, they have a very strong workflow management capability. That's a very strong feature because then you can model any process easily. Whether it is a demand management process, a pipeline management process, or your project delivery methodology, it is much easier because of their workflow management capability.""I like the ease of customization from an admin perspective. I'm really excited about some of the things that are coming in version 10.0.3 as far as what admins are able to do.""Has a powerful workflow engine that allows creation of workflow complexities and processes.""Micro Focus PPM is flexible and easy to use. It's simple to customize and configure workflows."

"I like Primavera's planning capabilities.""The most valuable feature of Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is accuracy.""Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a well-engineered product from an IT perspective.""The ability to streamline the process of obtaining signatures from our contractors is valuable.""The solution's tech support is good."

Cons
"Portfolio scenarios: This is a very powerful feature. However, it’s limited to analyses.""We had a couple of issues with stability or performance degradation about a year ago, around the time of the initial rollout. Since then, we've only had two unexpected outages that were quickly resolved.""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.""They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky.""Reporting; need to be able to provide fancy reporting out of PPM, way it is done in OBIEE etc.""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.""There are some limitations when it comes to attaching receipts. For example, if we are going to buy some non-labor-related assets such as hardware, we are not able to attach the receipts in the Financial Management module in version 9.41.""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."

"Primavera could be better integrated with other products, and it needs more cost management features.""The reporting could improve project management. We need multiple source reports. If someone is new to the support it has a steep learning curve.""They should work on integrating the solution with ERP.""The scalability has room for improvement.""The solution's user interface is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Support and license management are two hurdles for us. Every time we purchase new licenses, it has taken us half a year to implement those."
  • "It is SaaS without a base fee."
  • "HPE PPM SaaS model is comprehensive, however, the base fee component has customer resistance to its recurring setup,"
  • "Now, we also received an increase in the support license prices, without any advanced notice. At this point, switching to unify all our licensing under HPE and customer support has been poor."
  • "We have an annual license, and it is fairly priced in comparison to that of other solutions."
  • "A large organization will find Micro Focus PPM affordable, but it may be a bit costly for a small or medium-sized company. The license is based on the number of users."
  • More OpenText Project and portfolio Management Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The solution is highly priced compared to one of its competitors."
  • "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."
  • "My company has made an annual payment towards the costs of the solution. Price-wise, the solution is okay."
