Highly robust tool enhances project management for large-scale programs
The tool can be improved with integrations to Agile tools. We used Azure DevOps, which I dislike. Better integrations to JIRAs and perhaps open APIs for task management would be super beneficial. As a project management tool, it is perfect, but the ability to be agile with task management could improve it. There is always an opportunity for more flexibility regarding integrated reporting. The project dashboard feature worked perfectly for small to small-medium projects, but on a large scale, it was not flexible enough to handle a program-level dashboard. However, that is probably a nice-to-have rather than a need-to-have. The integrations to Agile are essential; we had to do a full build to accomplish that.

Centralized project documents have improved remote collaboration but task workflows remain confusing
Regarding Procore Project Management's task scheduling feature for reducing project delays, I did not use the task management feature very much because it seemed difficult to set up. I did not care for the platform from a user-friendly perspective because I am more of a construction professional than a computer professional. Some of the features were hard to navigate through. I also found that true with some of the Whole Foods employees who were trying to use it. They were confused on how to approve things and get things completed in the task management. Additionally, some of the change order approval processes were unclear. They did not know how to approve them. When uploading a task, it was confusing to identify who was the approver of that document because the responsibility was doubled up. The task management section and the distribution list along with the project approval person designation were difficult and confusing to navigate through.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is performance-oriented and easily customized accordingly to many areas, such as performance KPI."
"It stands out by automating the intricate mechanics of project execution, eliminating the need for highly technical individuals to manage and reconfigure models."
"Planisware has introduced Agile concepts, making it capable of Agile management similar to Jira and other Agile tools."
"There are two things in particular that I enjoy. The first is the portfolio planning section. Another advantage is that it is highly customizable."
"I found Planisware really effective, and I appreciate it."
"Planisware has improved our project visibility, resource utilization, decision-making, and cost control, leading to higher efficiency and better alignment between business strategy and project execution."
"Planisware is a beautiful tool that is very efficient, clear, well-designed, and more robust than any I have used."
"Planisware offers integration with multiple tools and provides a good level of customization."
"The financial side of Procore Project Management is better."
"What I appreciate about using Procore Project Management is the convenience of putting everything in one location, where pictures, schedules, blueprints, drawings, change orders, and all documents are accessible in one platform."
"Other companies have been using it for years, and it is a very stable platform."
"The coordination between the field and the office without the need to print or physically transport drawings is very valuable."
 

Cons

"The solution's user experience and user interface need improvement because they are not that great and intuitive."
"The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."
"The biggest con for Planisware is that if you are not a Planisware partner, you don't have access to their functions, making it difficult for beginners and new team members."
"The UI and UX of Planisware are not that advanced."
"The reports should be improved because all companies now need reporting, and with tools such as Grafana or Tableau, Planisware needs to add interfaces for data lakes since all companies require this."
"Its stability should be improved. Its stability is the main issue, but we sometimes also have issues with calculations."
"More integration is needed with other kinds of products for better collaboration."
"I have experienced some issues, and that’s okay. It tends to be stable when the server's processing power and memory are adequate."
"It would be nice if the tool can reduce its operational cost. It would make it more competitive."
"I did not care for the platform from a user-friendly perspective because I am more of a construction professional than a computer professional."
"It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
"It takes time to use it. It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution could be less expensive and the cost of scaling is expensive too."
"The solution is expensive and support is an extra cost. There are three license types to choose from, and we only pay for support and cloud services depending on our needs."
"It comes with a high cost."
"There are training and certification costs."
"The tool is cheap and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
