Productfolio is product management software designed to enable teams to focus on building products. The software gives end-to-end workflow tools to empower teams and to align the workflow. Users can define 'what' and ‘why’ so that the teams can work in the same direction. Productfolio also lets users prioritize opportunities to help create a roadmap. The drag and drop of the visual roadmap will help others know what…
Gemini is well suited to help track issues and change requests, projects, bugs, time logs, etc. It is less appropriate for reporting needs or general office management needs.
This platform is a product managers dream! If you are meeting with your team a lot for brains storming sessions, this is a great tool as it has an ideas list (my favorite aspect of the platform) where you can write in any ideas you have then task them to certain topics and tag people in the task! You can also move these ideas over to a "to-do's" list and then a "in progress" and "completed" list respectively. This has greatly helped our team take our ideas from just an idea to actually fulfilling it! This may not be helpful if your focuses are only on one idea or topics but this does help you bring your project along with a timeline so you can complete your work in a timely manner!

Gemini offers flexible framework that allowed IT to build a workflow based process. IT change requests were divided into several buckets: New Change Requests group for business units to submit requests for enhancements and new project ideas, Pending Change Requests for approved projects that are waiting for IT resources, Application Development where we track active projects, Defect Tracking where bugs are tracked during testing and finally Release Management where requests for deployment are tracked.
Gemini allows to create custom fields and add them to View, Edit and Add screens. This flexible model allowed us to track additional information on the project such as IT Point of Contact, System Name, Team Name, Testing dates, etc.
Gemini has flexible email notification model that allows to keep business customers informed on the project progress. Whenever comment is added by project manager email alerts goes out anyone that is set to watch project progress.

I would like to see more color coding options - this is minor but when we have many different projects/clients/tasks, it would help to have more variation for differentiation!
Better price point may help this product get into more offices!

Gemini's development team continues to improve the product and provides a comprehensive roadmap of upcoming features that makes you want to upgrade as soon as a new version comes out.
The similarity of Asana and Productfolio is task management but Productfolio exceeds it tenfolds as there are timeline trackers, to-do list organizers, ideas list, etc. The UI/UX is cleaner on Productfolio and easier to digest which is helpful when training new employees. I would highly recommend Productfolio over Asana!
