Provides efficiency in metadata storage and implementation
Many applications perform similarly to Hive, offering metadata implementations. I'm looking into their advancements, such as aggregated joins and MBT joins. Hive's virtual implementations are evolving, and tools like Snowflake offer specific use case advancements. In future releases, the Bloomfilter function should be a part of Hive. Windowing functions should also be there. I would also like to see AI implementation.

Centralized planning has improved resource visibility and supports data‑driven financial decisions
The best features Planview Portfolios offers are visibility enhancement, robust system performance, and comprehensive resource management. This enhanced visibility in Planview Portfolios ensures that all users can easily track progress, identify bottlenecks, and make informed decisions to optimize workflow efficiency. When discussing robust system performance, the system's robust performance in meeting our various work requirements effectively and efficiently stands out. It is very stable and reliable, contributing to a seamless user experience, which enables users to focus on their tasks without disruptions. I also love the financial breakdown, planning and prioritization, and attribute collection on projects in Planview Portfolios. Planview Portfolios has positively impacted my organization since I started using it. It has enabled me to gain insights into the full scope of work consuming resources. I am able to know where the resources are being consumed more, especially which resources are consuming the most. I have been able to leverage resources management and resource time reporting, which enabled the generation of $90 million in annual revenue through labor billing to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It excels in handling diverse data formats and is particularly beneficial for constructing a data lake for companies with mixed data types, such as videos and structured data."
"It is a good solution for us when it comes to metadata implementation. It's beneficial to have metadata stored in Hive."
"People are happy using the tool."
"We have a fairly good picture of time tracking."
"We are able to see where everyone in the team is in terms of hours, where there is capacity, and where we can actually add them, e.g., other projects that they're not currently staffed to."
"The biggest benefit that we have seen is that it's increased visibility across the board and given us a lot of data to actually make data-driven decisions, whereas before this product we didn't have the level of detail to make informed decisions around a lot of trade-offs with our strategic portfolio."
"We are able to take up the right work and invest in the highest value ideas."
"The dashboards and reports that we provide out of Planview are priceless when compared to any other tool."
"Planview Portfolios offers us a single source of truth and enables a faster, more reliable decision-making tool."
"Our reporting is much better, there is much more visibility on projects, schedules, tasks, and in our milestones, and now we have a consistent way of reporting out to the committees and getting all of our schedules and milestones."
 

Cons

"For smaller datasets, it may not be as suitable, and its performance might not be optimal."
"In future releases, I would also like to see AI implementation."
"The technical support seems strong. I know they've started doing some more off-shore support, and that space still needs some growth."
"Right now, we're overspending, and my organization is not seeing the value in Planview because we are paying so much for licenses that we're not using."
"I would rate the technical support just slightly below poor."
"We had issues with the data rephrasing."
"Although Enterprise One is easy and user-friendly, currently the learnings have been more via trial and error, I think if Planview could provide better consistent training like a tool demo, structured training, how-tos that would help tremendously."
"I would like to be able to integrate with Oracle to supplement what we're currently doing with reporting."
"The administrative tabs are very confusing, especially in terms of configuring screens and users. It's not very intuitive versus many other applications that I have worked in the past. I have to go to separate sections than I think I have to in order to get to the place that I need to adjust something."
"The solution needs to be better at accepting new ideas for upcoming releases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an open-source solution."
"Our licensing costs are about a quarter of a million dollars per year."
"We have portfolio managers, resource managers, project managers, and time reporting licenses. These are the licenses that we have."
"We recently did a new bundle for all of Enterprise One. It includes some of the newer pieces, like Projectplace and LeanKit. It bundled our CTM in with it as well. I think the total came out to be about $900,000 a year. This is for unlimited licenses."
"Our licensing fees are approximately $50,000 USD annually."
"I don't know about the actual pricing. I have not come across any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"When we went through that process, I believe it is competitive with others on the market. However, there are less expensive options available. It's a more premium offering at a higher price."
"The cost of other pieces and integrating them in needs improvement."
"I don't think we have necessarily purchased everything that I would have liked to have seen."
