Daptiv - solid tool

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Daptiv within one branch of our organization for Project and portfolio management and time tracking. We use it for project tracking and status reporting at the project and entire portfolio level, and do resource management. We have ~225 users.
Pros
  • Daptiv provides one location for consistent information about ALL our projects to support executive reporting
  • Daptiv is very customizable to support your business processes and language
  • Daptiv has improved the usability of their resource planning ability recently and this is increasingly a strength.
Cons
  • The Daptiv UI has seen some significant improvements recently that were long in coming. However I am still waiting for more that are on their plan. Lack of ability to customize what appears on specific screens or to add hover over help for less experienced users make it a difficult sell for some of our occasional users.
  • Daptiv comes with Cognos reports that does allow reporting against all the data elements. However the lack of ability to extract data in any form other than an emailed report significantly limits the ability to interface with the data.
  • Changes to many of the data elements are not tracked to who made changes and when.
  • Access to data elements is at a very broad level making it difficult to allow third party users to use the tool with limited access.
Likelihood to Recommend
Daptiv is well suited to a mid to large size relatively structured organization. It has a top down focus and flexibility that supports executive reporting well. Like most PPM tools it does require some central administration. Right now it is not highly suited to development organization that is fully agile.

Pros
  • From an administrative point of view, the platform was easy to configure for the organization we were supporting. Daptiv professional services assisted with conversion from another product and were able to match nearly all of the customized fields and security features available in the other product. This made acceptance and conversion as smooth as possible.
  • From the project manager and contributor point of view, Daptiv allowed easier access to track and monitor tasks. Portfolios were setup to oversee the work executed under each department. Time entry and approval processes allowed accurate tracking of hours spent across all lines of business.
  • From the executive reporting point of view, Cognos sits on top of the Daptiv data model, which allows report designers the capability to extract information in any format to produce reports, dashboards and ad-hoc analysis.
Cons
  • Although Daptiv professional services were helpful during our conversion efforts, the team seemed lacking in following an establish process and methodology, leaving much of the requirements gathering process up to others to produce without much in the way of advice or guidance.
  • The resource management module was not initially rolled out for our organization. The interface to those functions seemed overly complex and non-intuitive. The large learning curve, business process re-design and training effort was too costly and time consuming for the organization to absorb at the time.
Likelihood to Recommend
Daptiv is well worth a look, especially for ease of use surrounding Project and Portfolio Management.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
It supports us prioritising, managing, controlling and reporting projects/portfolios from ideas through to realisation of benefits in order to support achievement of financial objectives.
Pros
  • offers good a good user roles & rights concept
  • supports individual setup of Dynamic Applications for different purposes
  • in combination with the implemented BI software IBM Cognos you may design your individual as well as company wide template reports
Cons
  • In my opinion, APIs / integrations are sometimes coming to their limit
  • In my experience, no general archive available - therefore data sets cannot be frozen
  • Data roll-up for different hierarchy levels (program / project / sub-project) is very limited, in my opinion.
  • In my opinion, when having showing a large number projects navigation on project tab is not very handy
Likelihood to Recommend
Positive: - Easy entry of profile and status updates - Native Dynamic Applications cover basic needs - Custom DAs can be added quite easily - ... Negative: - Missing data archive to enable the review of historic data sets (Status history covers only entries of this section) - Design / Look and feel looks a little bit outdated, in my opoinion - In my experience, the Task section it is sometimes hard to find the right way to get your data into the system (especially for beginners), e.g. "Edit Task" versus "Update Task" (accessable via different ways and hard to distinguish) - ...

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Daptiv is used as our primary portfolio and project management tool. It is used to track project, task, risk, and issue progress. It is also used as the source of record for resource allocation. The tool is used throughout all locations within our organization. The reporting module is used across the enterprise for both HR and project reporting.
Pros
  • Resource allocation, when fully integrated provides a in depth view of what everyone is working on, as well as their availability.
  • Portfolio reporting provides a good view of where all projects are at in their lifecycle.
  • Time tracking is simple to use.
Cons
  • The product becomes slow when used at an enterprise level.
  • Reporting studio is cumbersome and difficult to use.
  • Standard resource management reports do not run out of the box with mid sized enterprises.
  • The product does not fit well with Agile projects out of the box.
Likelihood to Recommend
Daptiv works well with small organizations. For mid-sized organizations with a lot of data in Daptiv it becomes very slow and cumbersome to use.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Planview Daptiv is mainly used for process automation, we have over past years successfully implemented and supported the solution for a number of clients. The use of the product is from Ideation prioritisation and scoring to benefits tracking, what most clients comment the product for is the ability to scale and the IBM Cognos Analytics offered by the tool.

I recommend it for ease of use, the user interface, and how the product can be aligned to organisations maturity level.
Pros
  • Ideation
  • Capacity Planning
  • overall Task tracking
  • Timesheets
Cons
  • Project Profile Meta data fields
  • Dynamic Application Custom fields
  • multi currency
Likelihood to Recommend
We have implemented Planview Daptiv in Financial Services, the reception has been good.However, our retail client had challenges using capacity planning. Primarily because they were using multiple tools in the organisation like MS-Project and JIRA, and they had challenges on MS-Project to Planview Daptiv bi-synchronization as it captured time and not pulling through resources as is on MS-Project.
