Monabi Kingsley - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Manager at 3M
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.

Sales Manager at Storageone
Helps organize information and streamline client communication
My primary use case for the platform is to manage opportunities, company names, contacts, and meeting details. I use it to keep a detailed diary of customer interactions and plan the next steps. Our company is small, with five salespeople, and we rely on the CRM to track and manage our sales…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A lot of of the value is around the project metrics so far but as I get more plugged into the strategic management, it's strategic planning and programs and then tying that into outcomes. I work with executive leadership and that's really what they're looking for, to say, "Okay, what outcomes do we want to achieve and how are we going to get there, plan that out, sequence that out, and then get the work to do that? And then track the work back to where we're headed with our outcomes.""
"Planview Portfolios helped me generate $90 million in annual revenue through better resource allocation and accurate billing."
"The resource capacity planning is the most valuable feature because you can evaluate your team's capacity by team and what projects they're working on and you can forecast easily by team."
"Knowing that any changes that are made are instant, and we have one true source of this visibility is very helpful."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is reporting."
"We have a fairly good picture of time tracking."
"The flexibility allows it to become more self-service, and we can on-board users that do not have an IT or enterprise role, but more like an add-on list or even a business user."
"The solution’s integrated product portfolio has transformed our organization’s strategy because previously we didn't have a specific tool which was being used for project management, people were using different sets of tools for managing their projects, and there was no centralized tool where the organization knew what people were working on, and this tool gives them that visibility on all projects."
"The product is stable."
 

Cons

"When it comes to reporting there are some challenges with integration."
"So far, it has been good, but we've been in conversation with the vendor product team to improve the performance of the Work and Assignments module, because right now it is a bit slower."
"We had issues with the data rephrasing."
"The content management definitely needs to improve. We don't really use content management for projects inside Enterprise One. We have actually switched to a SharePoint site. We have a feed from Enterprise One every night of all the projects that are created."
"It would be great to see Planview incorporate agile interfacing/methods in it. Like CA Clarity and other leading PPM tools – Planview should enhance or develop the interfaces to ingrate with other market leading Agile tools."
"There's still a lot of reluctance within the organization. We're not using all of the capabilities that we have today."
"Allowing users to have a link that opens a specific sub-tab or folder is a challenge."
"I think that the stability of this solution is below average. With every new update, I find bugs."
"The platform's initial data entry process is time-consuming. It could be more streamlined."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Planview is a little pricey. From a licensing perspective, for just a simple timesheet user who does nothing in the system but reports time, the licensing is a little pricey, but you have to look at it from what it is that you get. We have 6,000 users, and I don't manage the system at all. I just have to do add them to the system. The servers, maintenance, OS levels, security patching for the OS, and all other things are not something that we maintain. So, you have to look at it from an operational perspective. It is not just the product itself. A holistic view has to be taken when you look at the product and how you're going to support it. I would have to hire an entire operation staff to bring it in-house, and at the end of the day, that might cost me more."
"I don't know about the actual pricing. I have not come across any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"We have portfolio managers, resource managers, project managers, and time reporting licenses. These are the licenses that we have."
"We are on the Flex licenses."
"With the costs, they were very understanding. Knowing that we were an existing customer, they were very much willing to work with us to make sure that we were able to transition to Enterprise One from PPM Pro."
"We overbought our licenses. We looked at our needs three to four years down the road and tried based our contract on that. However, we were over aggressive. We use about a third of the licenses that we have. We're looking to adjust the makeup so we can start utilizing the amount of money that we are spending. 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."
"Our licensing costs are probably $150,000 to $180,000 a year with 270 licenses total."
"In the time that I've used it, we've doubled up the amount of dollars on our intended projects."
