Chose Planview ProjectPlace
It offers a simpler alternative that's easier to manage by the less tech-savvy people. I also think that Planview Projectplace has managed to keep the product updated compared to other project management tools. Miro is perhaps the one that comes to mind, but while evaluating, …

I like both Trello and Planview Projectplace. I think that Planview Projectplace lends itself to being used for larger companies and more in-depth tasks. I like Trello more really because of its ease of use and user interface.
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
The ease of access and configuration helped us to go with Planview Projectplace.
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
Projectplace has many similar features in terms of conversations, document storage, and timesheet tracking. However, I think where it offers improved performance is in use of Kanban boards to promote more agile project environments over a waterfall type environment. I also …

I think it is fine but has been a much more difficult integration that originally anticipated.
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
I have only used Excel, Outlook Tasks and Notes. No other similar products.
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
Most of these others don't have many of the features that are available in Planview Projectplace. The agile methodology is in a true sense covered by Planview Projectplace, not by Asana nor Wrike. In Confluence, one has to link up with Jira for full functionality, but in …
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
There are not really any other products that we have tried out because this one works for us and our team, but I am not sure if other teammates have.

[In my experience] Jira is more refined, better looking, and easier to become familiar with. Also, the massive market share of Jira helps in consultancy as you can switch between clients easily. Projectplace has many powerful tools but so does Jira, and Jira integrates with our …

Microsoft Project has more features than Planview Projectplace but can be a bit difficult to get used to. I find that Projectplace is a balance between Asana and Microsoft Projects in terms of features. Projectplace shines in its ability to handle large projects better han Asana
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
It’s just ready to use and has far more possibilities.
Chose Planview ProjectPlace
The price made it impossible for us to select Projectplace as a long-term solution so it was quickly discarded. But the main issue was really the lack of support for more complex agile methodologies. We were unable to really work within a pure SAFe or Scrum framework since the …

Planview is providing better services than GanttPRO. The user feedback to improve Planview Projectplace and constantly do monthly updates is a strong benefit of the software that I felt. I also found the software more effective and efficient when it comes to the planning of …

Pros
Planview
  • As a cloud based solution, Projectplace is one of the few true multiple location, multi person project management tools available for large teams. The reliability for large projects (with teams of anywhere between 50-200+ people) was a huge selling point for this and I witnessed this first hand.
  • The Windows and Mac applications for Projectplace are well designed and work impressively well for a project management tool. I found most of the teams had either application installed on their machine and did not have any complaints about it.
  • Features like AI and project management viewing styles like Kanban, Ganntt and others make the experience customizable for each user and made them adapt it to their preferred project management style.

Cons
Planview
  • Under the time tracking, it would be nice to have a set template that would load each week and not have to click a button to load the previous week's template.
  • Somehow making it more intuitive.
  • Having to add in each service line and each detail that I cover for every service line each week is a bit ridiculous.

We this investment of time & training, the cost of maintaining Projectplace is relatively low for the benefit.

Support Rating
Planview
Planview ProjectPlace is quite complex, but it demands better engagement with various stakeholders to initiate a useful work environment. There are credible ways of establishing more live engagement, from direct chats and audio engagements. More so, Planview ProjectPlace is more formal, and this limits some users from outlining their demands or desires in matters of program performance.

Alternatives Considered
Planview
It offers a simpler alternative that's easier to manage by the less tech-savvy people. I also think that Planview Projectplace has managed to keep the product updated compared to other project management tools. Miro is perhaps the one that comes to mind, but while evaluating, we saw fewer issues with Planview Projectplace. Overall, the decision came down to the project manager, that had previous experience and recommended the product. For me, using a product from a smaller company is better because I know that there will be a focus on improving it, unlike, for example, Microsoft products that can be discontinued at any moment.
