Our yearly LeanKit costs are at about $22,000. My advice to others would be to start by watching some of LeanKit's Planview videos. They were useful in learning about how to set up the boards. We made many changes as we went, but if we'd watched some of those intro videos first about best practices, things to do, and the things not to do, we could have skipped a couple of those headaches that we had when we were transitioning from the physical whiteboard to the LeanKit board.

I like the FLEX licensing. It's nice to have one FLEX licensing plan for all their applications and we just need to pay that upkeep. I think it's great.

We use the board and card hierarchies in terms of sprints so that we can see if we have cross-functional teams that are working on the same projects together, especially when projects have dependencies. The parent-child relationship within cards is really nice so that we can see what kind of dependencies there are when we're trying to get projects finished.
Please share with the community what you think needs improvement with Planview LeanKit. What are its weaknesses? What would you like to see changed in a future version?
I do not know what it can do in the area of scrum. Maybe it has that functionality. I have never tried to set it up. You think of LeanKit from the perspective of Kanban. I don't know if there is a template for scrum, a scaled agile framework, or any of those scaling frameworks.

Being able to determine what the Card Size feature is for, and have it be just one, standard thing instead of it being open to interpretation, would help. I have also noticed that some people want to be able to make recurring cards. If they have tasks that they do over and over again, they would like to be able to automatically duplicate cards or have them recur. Also, being able to track actual time on cards or sprints, instead of using just the planned start and stop date, would also be useful. I would like to see something like JIRA has with actual sprint starts and stops.

I don't believe there are any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees.
We pay for LeanKit on an annual level. The pricing changes but next year it will be $2 million.

We shared our experience with other PMOs within our company and it led to an Enterprise Agreement. The price was right and the setup was fairly easy.
In general, Planview's cost structure is reasonable. You get quite a lot of functionality for the license cost that you get.

I'm not familiar with the pricing but I think it has been worth what we've paid for so far.
