  • Provides an enterprise-level solution that offers scalability like no other tool
  • Clearly defines permissions and individual workspaces that can be custom-tailored to the work style of different departments and team members
  • Provides flexibility in the organization of data and the ability to access it
  • Supplies us with exceptional reporting capabilities that give us the power to look at projects from the highest to the lowest levels of granularity
  • Planview AdaptiveWork's ability to create relations between work estimates, resources, and time is one of its strengths but also one of its drawbacks. The average user is a little less considerate of the way these things interact with each and the automatic way in which Planview AdaptiveWork will affect one or the other can occasionally create a confusing scenario if the user is unaware of how changing one will affect the other

  • Has a visually appealing UI that is easy to learn and navigate
  • Allows for deep customization, enabling organizations to modify it for their own unique needs
  • Integrates well with third party tools (ie. Jira) as well as other Planview products
  • Project ownership is difficult to manage when it is split between multiple teams/users
  • Resource management modules are difficult to utilize due to relatively limited functionality.
  • When multiple users are editing the same project, it can sometimes be difficult to not overwrite one another

  • robust product that seems to be all inclusive
  • enhancing the platform
  • keeping up with technology
  • advanced integration with several partners
  • In the hybrid cards version there is not a way to use the resource filed as a sort/card lane, it would be nice to be able to use this field to view tasks assigned to a resource all in one column/lane.
  • I haven't used the Risk and Issues portion much, but plan to. It seems odd to me that I have to click out to a new section to track these items for a project.
  • I'd like to see the meeting notes enhanced a bit so that you can copy the last agenda forward with unfinished tasks and or action items

  • Resource Capacity Planning has been a game changer for us to forecast resource availability as new priorities arise
  • Roadmaps are very easy to create at the project, program, or portfolio level
  • Customization has allowed us to create unique items for teams and align the system with our brand
  • Dashboards are cumbersome to build because you have to build reports for each widget and they are visually very limited (you can't choose colors, layouts are limited, etc.)
  • Out of box features better support bottom up resource planning rather than top down (allocations at the project level)
  • You need a fair amount of technical knowledge to customize the system via configurations

  • Time tracking
  • I believe the Field title is not always the data/info of which they are labeled. Extremely, admin & click heavy.
  • Logic - I believe the logic in many areas is not correct/effective, or efficient.
  • Consistent Functionality - matching functionality approach. In my opinion, different areas have different functionality for the same functions.

  • Simpler and more intuitive to use than other big name products.
  • Provides the ability to easily use templates, and cuts down on building projects.
  • Being different than say, MS Project, if you have a lot of seasoned staff, may be frustrating for those users.
  • Some of the automated features are too automated, and not always desirable.

  • Real time updates: as a web based solution when I update a timeline my manager and team can see the updates as soon as they refresh their view
  • Highlighting what changes and the critical path: I can set up a view that marks items on the critical path and I can set up a view to highlight any dates that change based on a change I make earlier in the plan. This makes slashing timelines much much easier than most programs.
  • Collaborative notes: you can @ team members when adding notes. This is a great way to share project specific comments and also the system keeps a record of these conversations which can be useful for post mortems.
  • Reports: You can create custom reports and share them with your team so they can pull similar reports for their own projects
  • Export: I'm not wild about the export options. We created a custom project plan formatter to turn the ugly export in CSV to a customer facing color coded PDF. It's not super easy to give your customers something pretty to look at (although they do offer PPTs)
  • Gantt Charts: All I want in life is a nice little high level set of milestones to pop into a slide I'm showing to a steering committee. It's just not something the system does. I've just had to screen shot a hard to read gantt from the system or recreate in PPT or Visio. No fun
  • Speed: I am not sure what's going on here but Clarizen can be pretty slow to update small changes to project plans. It's rough when you have a laundry list of changes to make but the system is waiting

  • Clarizen has flexibility to be collaborated with Salesforce and other existing tools.
  • Clarizen is very customization friendly to meet user needs.
  • It has easily available inbuilt syntax, which helps the user to create the logic by its own to meet their desired need.
  • Clarizen does not have feature to management request tracking on hourly basis.
  • It does not have functionality to track or allocate requests automatically on the basis of FIFO.
  • The reports dashboard cannot be transformed into the PPT.

  • User-friendly interface. This allowed us to implement Clarizen with very minimal training. The system has six to a dozen ways of doing the same thing which allows flexibility. Also, the mobile app is fully functional and just as friendly to use.
  • Workflow. The workflow was easy to configure and setup.
  • Auditing. Although we needed the audit features that out-of-the-box provided. The configuration and set up allowed for quick and maintainable auditing as needed. Clarizen PS provided insight and support as we set up 90% of our environment configuration.
  • Integrations: How you set up your environment (configuration) and added features or proprietary fields could adjust your integration needs. Therefore, specific integrations between 3rd party systems can be "proprietary" to your company. The API calls and rest service out of the box work well, on the other hand.
  • Building the Clarizen Marketplace applications
