Executive SummaryUpdated on Nov 4, 2024

Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management and Planview Daptiv are competing products in the project portfolio management category. Research indicates that Planview Daptiv holds a notable edge due to its superior suite of features, despite Oracle Primavera's favorable pricing and support.

Features: Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management includes comprehensive project planning, advanced resource management capabilities, and risk analysis tools. Planview Daptiv focuses on flexibility with customizable workflows and strong integration capabilities. Primavera offers depth in project analytics, while Daptiv provides broader integration options, which makes it more adaptable to diverse organizational needs.

Room for Improvement: Oracle Primavera could enhance its user interface for a more intuitive experience and reduce deployment complexity. It would benefit from improving integration capabilities with other third-party applications. Planview Daptiv could enhance its project analytics for deeper insights, expand its out-of-the-box reporting templates, and improve training documentation for onboarding users more effectively.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Oracle Primavera requires more time for deployment due to its complexity but offers solid customer support once implemented. Planview Daptiv has a more intuitive deployment process, reducing the time to productivity and is backed by responsive customer service. Daptiv's ease of deployment and strong support network is an advantage.

Pricing and ROI: Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management has a higher setup cost, which can affect initial ROI but is seen as cost-effective in the long term due to its robust features. Planview Daptiv, despite a somewhat higher price tag, shows better ROI attributed to its quick deployment and flexible structures. Daptiv's pricing aligns well with its benefits, leading to quicker returns on investment.

Ensures data consistency and improves stakeholder transparency while needing pricing adjustments

It is beneficial to have the schedule updated so you can have control of the cost. When you have a change in the schedule, you can also make a change in the cost. For us, it is mostly important to control dates and to be on time, but also to know the cash flow. With both of our clients, they use Power BI extensively. Though it may not be the best solution, they have all the tools connected to Power BI, which they primarily use for reporting. The integration with Unifier, which is also an Oracle tool, ensures that the data is correct and timely. The connection between Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management and Unifier is not difficult to establish, and the information obtained is really reliable.

reviewer2068344

Director of Operations at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Useful project management capabilities, beneficial dashboards, but project planning could improve

The areas that should be improved in Planview Daptiv are a subject that can be viewed differently depending on who you ask. I feel they should focus on excelling in one specific area rather than providing average capabilities in many areas. For example, their project planning software is satisfactory but not as advanced as Microsoft Projects. The same goes for the capacity planning tool and reporting capabilities, which can be improved upon by using custom Excel spreadsheets or by hiring a business analyst for additional support. In short, the biggest weakness of Daptiv is that it does not excel in any one area and only provides average performance. In a future release, it would be beneficial to have a undo button.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Delay analysis and extension of time claims are some of the key features."

"The ability to streamline the process of obtaining signatures from our contractors is valuable."

"The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure."

"It is very, very good in planning for large projects."

"The solution's tech support is good."

"I like Primavera's planning capabilities."

"The integration with Unifier, which is also an Oracle tool, ensures that the data is correct and timely."

More Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management pros

"The powerful collaboration is definitely the most valuable and the fact that you can adjust flexibility to almost any methodology, and the easy creation of complete new functionalities without programming code."

"Changepoint gives us a view of the project status and needs very clearly, which are things that we used to miss with MS Project and Excel."

"It's difficult to pinpoint just one most valuable feature, as there are many features that can be beneficial. For the specific use case of my client's project management office, they found the project management features of the application to be particularly valuable, such as project boards, reporting, and the ability to customize views. Additionally, task management and project scheduling were also highly utilized. However, capacity planning was not used as much as the others, as there was a lack of support from executives to invest in training and implementing it due to a lack of processes in place. The project planning features, dashboard, and reporting capabilities were considered the most valuable."

"I like the reporting engine, IBM Cognos, especially the analytics. That's a good tool. It's quite strong on the ideation and capacity-planning side, which is a huge plus."

"The timekeeping features are great and very helpful."

Cons

"There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products."

"The scalability has room for improvement."

"They should work on integrating the solution with ERP."

"There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products."

"There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs."

"The reporting could improve project management. We need multiple source reports. If someone is new to the support it has a steep learning curve."

"For us in LATAM, the pricing is extremely high. That is why I only work with oil and gas and mining industries because they have substantial budgets."

"There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs."

More Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management cons

"It would also be nice to see some improvements on the IBM Cognos Analytics. There's still work to be done on the analytics side of things, like your condition formality."

"I find the solution has an excessive amount of features. Many aren't even kept current. Some aren't useful at all. There's an overall lack of coherence within the solution. It can make the execution difficult. Many features can easily be eliminated and it would help streamline the solution. They should get rid of 80% of the features and then really focus on the leftover 20% to make it a really great product."

"Expense management, simulation scenarios, and budget control could be great and useful features to include."

"This solution needs more standard connectors to other solutions."

"The areas that should be improved in Planview Daptiv are a subject that can be viewed differently depending on who you ask. I feel they should focus on excelling in one specific area rather than providing average capabilities in many areas. For example, their project planning software is satisfactory but not as advanced as Microsoft Projects. The same goes for the capacity planning tool and reporting capabilities, which can be improved upon by using custom Excel spreadsheets or by hiring a business analyst for additional support. In short, the biggest weakness of Daptiv is that it does not excel in any one area and only provides average performance."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"My company has made an annual payment towards the costs of the solution. Price-wise, the solution is okay."

"The solution itself is cost-effective."

"The solution is highly priced compared to one of its competitors."

"The licensing is pretty complex. Each kind of user is a different price. It's approximately $300 per year. They charge additional fees for technical support and other additional services."

"It's a yearly license, but it's not an open license. It's based on users and their roles. So your administrator is priced differently from your timesheet user."
