Easy to use with flexible reporting, excellent visibility, and solid customer support
The status reporting is the most valuable feature as it's easy to use; it's simple for project managers to enter their information, and the reporting features are very flexible. Planview PPM enables us to create reusable project templates that reflect our project management life cycle. We were able to garner some best practices by using Planview templates, but they are also flexible enough to modify without having to customize the solution. The distinction between ''customize'' and ''configure'' is important here. When it comes to viewing projects and timelines, the solution is excellent. The views are easy to access and highly configurable. The solution provides managers with the insight they need to empower decision-making and help them manage risk, as it allows them to see when projects are over budget and behind schedule. Planview helped to reduce project delays because we can see when they occur and take proactive steps to remedy the situation.

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 timesheet & staffing management function gives us clarity in terms of how capacity planning has to happen and how much actual effort is going into the programs. The risk and project status information gets captured in the project gives more clarity for stakeholders to understand how the programs are running. We have only explored a portion of the application features so far."
"PPM Pro provides us an organized view of the work that is ongoing and resources that are working on those particular projects."
"This solution is cloud-based and that is most beneficial."
"PPM Pro has improved my organization through standardization. The big thing for us is that we came from a very immature state of play. Everyone had their own risk and issue management capabilities and their own different impacts for risks. We've been able to standardize that within the program delivery arena. That for us has been a major thing. We're all speaking the same language about the same things and using the same metrics in order to capture statuses."
"It has helped us make good decisions in terms of what projects to take or how to prioritize projects when we have multiple directors from the business or product, and it has definitely helped us prioritize and work on our critical things."
"We are expecting it to connect funding and strategic outcomes with work execution."
"The solution provides managers with the insight they need to empower decision-making and help them manage risk, as it allows them to see when projects are over budget and behind schedule."
"The status reporting is the most valuable feature as it's easy to use; it's simple for project managers to enter their information, and the reporting features are very flexible."
"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 financial side of Procore Project Management is better."
"The coordination between the field and the office without the need to print or physically transport drawings is very valuable."
 

Cons

"There should be another option for capacity management, besides entering of the time sheets against the tasks."
"It's quick to use, but the performance is still sometimes slow because of the cloud or whatever the reason."
"If 'What If' planning cannot accommodate all projects, and if Predictive Portfolio Analysis cannot offer a method to adjust schedules and see the impact, the tool is not useful for resource management."
"Financial management and workflow process setup could be improved."
"Connecting funding and strategic outcomes with work execution is a challenge right now for us. Part of what we are facing is we have a couple of drivers of where projects are coming from. One of them is our innovation group. They are just sort of tangentially using PPM Pro for recording the status of projects and not really planning them within there. We need a stronger link between our current financial reporting system and Planview PPM Pro, so we can start to more easily record our external costs in the tool."
"The reporting has some areas for improvement. It is not always as simple as we would like to get the reports we want or the information that we want."
"Integrations need improvement. We have the ability now with the FLEX licensing to take advantage of the different applications. But if you want them integrated there's a really large cost associated with that. The integration should be included in the cost per license. We shouldn't have to pay these really high fees to get the systems to talk together."
"The calculated field area needs improvement. There are a lot of formulas and functions available to make a calculated field, but it is still not comprehensive. We process the data to represent it through a report or dashboard. Due to the current constraints, for complex calculations, we do the data processing outside PPM Pro."
"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 takes time to use it. It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
"It would be nice if the tool can reduce its operational cost. It would make it more competitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing was fair and I thought it was comparable to the other ones that we looked at. Other than ServiceNow, it was the most expensive, but we knew we were going to get a lot of value for that, so we went with it. We paid $40,000 for the implementation and for the workshops."
"The cost was in line."
"Because we have PPM Pro with Project place, we transitioned to the Flex model."
"$6 million has been the return on investment so far, and that was because of work intake. Now that we are scrutinizing the work intake and asking questions like, "Is there an alternative to your $10 million project?" We had one project come in for $10 million, scrutinize it through our gate review process, and wound up with the alternative, which was $3.8 million. So, a $6 million savings."
"Our current license is from 2019 to 2022. So for that three-year subscription, it was $60,000 for the subscription, users, platform, and connections. Then there were some add-ons. Connecting to some of our other systems like HR for that period cost us around $12,000."
"We have their Flex plan."
"A collaboration of all their tools truly gets the biggest bang for the buck."
"My advice is to pay attention to integration opportunities to reduce your licensing cost with Planview. There are additional costs for consulting services and advanced customer support."
"The tool is cheap and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
