Make vs. Planview Hub

Integromat is the best tool for business automation in my opinion because unlike Zapier it allows us to integrate with any API even if the app is not available which allows us to create automation even with the less known apps that we use or the ones that we built internally for our own company.

Planview TaskTop Hub is very well suited to implement the integrations to synchronise data such as requirement, task, bugs. We have very good experience with the integration between Jama and Jira as well as between two Jama instances. In the context test management, related to Test steps in a test case, it's quite complicated. Test Case synchronization between two Jama instances works with Steps. But we aren't able to implement the synchronisation of Test Cases including Steps to such Plugin of Jira like Xephyr.

• UI/UX Simplicity and Features
• Workflows are explained in details and even people without IT background can use the tool.
• Consumption is nicely tracked.
• Myriad of existing templates, solutions, and readymade connectors.

• Allows for one- vs bi-directional field flow which is useful per segment
• Allows for the relationship mapping of Parent/Child cards
• Allows for customization of mapped fields

• There are always new platforms and connections that we'd like to see
• More flexibility in paying for operations (tasks) on a sliding scale, instead of by tier
• More thorough support documentation on connecting various platforms and troubleshooting errors

• I'd like to see more robust reporting capabilities available from the UI.

At this point, it is firmly embedded in the DNA of the business and to give up the ability to automate workflows and create integrations on the fly would be a terrible idea.

Planview TaskTop Hub supports our use cases. I think its continuous development goes in the right direction.

Make's easy to understand user interface helps you to visualize what's happening at all times. Could use some tweaks around the navigation from a scenario specifically in the folders and back navigations. I can't tell you the amount of time wasted in that area. When you branch, you can't bring a branch back together in the same scenario which is kind of a bummer as well.

A great integration tool, which comes with a wide range of supported end tools. Planview TaskTop Hub works with an integration concept that maximizes the scalability and flexibility of integrations across more than just two tools. For example, from our experience, we started with the integration between Jama Connect and Jira. We were able to extend our integration concept to a new tool, Pro Cloud Server, by ourselves. The element was synced within 10 minutes.

We're hosting Planview TaskTop Hub by ourselves. The availability was good until now. A part of that, we have a strict plan for the quality control on any update of both Hub and End tools to avoid as much as possibily any disruptions.

Planview TaskTop Hub does generate traffic for some end tools. It is still in an acceptable range. For certain kind of retry to resolve issue in synchronizing relationships, an additional manual attention was required.

The pricing schema is very attractive, almost 50% lower than the competition. You could start from free and then grow. It has a pretty big library of connections to other apps and services, which really helps you when everything is a mess. Integromat has a really easy-to-use interface. You could do almost everything with fewer than 5 clicks. Scenarios (automation steps to complete a routine) have graphics so you can configure them more easily.

I was considering giving a rating between 9 and 10. Overall, the support has been very good so far. However, I have noticed that the members of the support team have varying levels of know-how about Planview TaskTop Hub. When a ticket about a complex technical issue reaches a member such as Christoph T., Sr. Customer Engineer, the analysis is done thoroughly, and a sustainable solution is provided. With other members of the support team, the experience might be different.

We've received a good, in-deep training from Christoph T. during the implementation phase.

The integration documentation was sufficient.

We had a very good collaboration with the enabling team from Tasktop in 2018. The enablement program was adequately structured, starting with building an integration concept based on use cases of the synchronized data. The training provided a good foundation for us to operate and maintain the tool. The tool administration and architecture were straightforward.

Integromat allows us to do everything we used to do on Zapier but it doesn't limit us to only the popular apps, with Integromat we're integrating custom APIs and we get data from different servers through GET requests and it's exactly what we needed and Zapier couldn't provide it.

Jira Align does not synch items outside of JIRA and Azure Dev Ops; TT Hub is specifically utilized to address connections to various other SDLC application.

We don't need to deploy Planview TaskTop Hub in other units but we could extend the integration to cover the new data, new data type and new projects.

• We used too many credits multiple times and had to buy them additionally, there are no prevention systems to setup to alert before it happens.
• Some consumption is difficult to understand and requires time and digging.
• It requires heavy internal effort to simplify things in Make in order for it to operate cheaper.
• Initial IT setup is paramount and determines a lot.

• We track monthly updates and each month there are typically over 30,000 updates being made which we know is saving time.
