Planview Portfolios is a great tool for resource management and project planning. User adoption is our biggest challenge. Data is different in various reporting depending on which screen a user is on. We put a lot of effort into training and re-training and that helps. Time reporting is also easy. As long as assignments are done properly, resources can log their time weekly with ease.
Reporting capabilities - with an inhouse report developer we still have to reply on the expense to Plainview for a report developer because of access to the report server and data. This slows down delivery of report initiatives and can get costly.

Portfolios is best suited for situations where you have a detailed project methodology process, resource management guidelines in place and financial partners who are engaged in the process. It is a tool that requires collaboration from many areas to be able to deliver accurate reporting to help drive project/program decisions for a division or company.

It is less suited for organizations that are in the beginning stages or developing a project methodology process. There are many capabilities but without process driven goals and outcomes, the options may be overwhelming and used individually instead of together as they were intended. It is also, less suited for very high drive reporting environments who are looking for expansive reports with large amounts of data at one time. It can be done but not without some constraints and bumps along the way.

Planview has allowed us to work with teams, stakeholders and project managers to identify where issues may lie with staffing and what potential trade-offs may be required. It allows Resource Managers to manage and schedule their resources with ease. Resources are also able to review their schedule to see what the expectations and schedule are upcoming.

Well suited= for complex processes, involving many users where a process is robust and somehow stable. Also, when there is availability to have dedicated tool support.
Less appropriate= for smaller use cases (less than 200ppl) or where a process is still not mature and changing a lot. Also, for very fast / immediate needs might not be suited since it takes time to learn about the tool capabilities.

Nationwide has customized several reports so that we can see things essential to us for capacity and demand planning. There were also a lot of customizations that had to be done around approvals of resources so that we were able to distinguish what was approved by the teams vs requested by someone for the teams to do work. With the defaulting of TimeNow, we are unable to look at capacity for the entire month, since the block of time is 30 days and not the actual calendar month.

Portfolios are suited to large organizations with existing Project Management practices and processes already in place. PMOs or a similar structure are really essential to help manage and support this system. Do not try to create processes by implementing a tool, get the processes first, and then get the tool to work for those processes.

Strong in project management. Planning tasks, resources, and report timesheets are easy. The system has different planning features and a stable progress engine. Customization is not very in-depth but the system is absolutely stable.

Planview is a one-of-a-kind tool that provides everything a work team needs to organize their activities. I use it for project planning, collaborating with a team, and customizing reports. Planview is the best tool for organizations to do multiple works.

If you want to organize your projects by priority and progress, this platform is for you, it helps you to visualize directly what you still need to finish and how to improve, and it helps to improve the relationship between collaborators and to work as a team, It could improve in the sense of giving more dynamism and ease of use to its platform, it is not easy to use for everyone.

I feel the system is extremely non user friendly, clucky UI/UX, illogical logic or does not provide basic logic/functionality expected for project management as well as extremely admin heavy and difficult to learn

Probably the best tool for both PPM and APM capabilities on the market today. Well suited for companies who are ready and able to commit. This means total buy-in from the entire organization. Companies must also be strategically minded and flexible with process / organizational change management. Not well suited for organizations who are inflexible or who only think tactically. These organizations might perform very well from an operational vantage, but will struggle with Enterprise One.

We have been struggling to communicate with our delivery partners about the lack of quality when it comes to project-level information and data, when implementing an Ad-Hoc tabular model and getting a real handle of our data in Planview, our governance team was now armed with the ammunition they needed in order to face the issue head-on. using high quality dashboards and information provided by the project managers from Planview, the metrics spoke for themselves, and exposed senior stakeholders to the reality of alot of the unasked and unanswered questions across the organization, "Are these projects really Green?" "Why are these projects proceeding at Risk?" - and the conversations truly began, putting pressure on our delivery team to step it up a gear in respects to data quality, giving out governance organization the support they needed to enforce high quality policies onto our delivery organization.

Excellent tool for tracking projects that follow traditional methodologies have a defined beginning and end. Some challenges exist in leveraging the tool for Agile/persistent teams where multiple projects are being delivered on very short time cycles that don't align with how funding is approved.

With the various options Planview offers it truly is a product that could meet a wide range of needs either across different companies or across different business units within one company. If you need to do only project management, not a problem. Start with PMing and slowly introduce other aspects like Resource Management as the company can absorb it.
