So far the day to day task management seems to be better outside of Planview Portfolios. But the big rocks, year all the major tracking and effort is great in Planview Portfolios. I think any team member needing to manage a project that spends any money or needs to track resources should use it.

Portfolios are very well suited to managing large projects or portfolios and have the reporting to support those efforts. They have a lot of functionality, but sometimes, having too much functionality makes it confusing for new users. I am looking forward to Planview to see if that will help reduce the confusion our users are experiencing.

Planview Portfolios is an excellent tool for managing your Organization's demand and resources. It gives excellent visibility of the time your organization is spending on running, growing, and transforming models, and at the same time, your resources are never over or underutilized. Projects roll up to programs and strategies, helping customers align with their company's strategic goals.

Portfolios is 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.

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 Portfolios is a powerful and highly flexible tool for managing a large and complex portfolio of projects, products, and business cases. It has the ability to manage granular permissions and finetune customization for a myriad of use cases. However, it is likely overly complex for smaller organizations that have simpler processes or structures in place and will cause more confusion if there are too many features that users will need to ignore.

I work as a Hospital Manager and in our hospital we need various equipment and advanced machines that can diagnose the best and give us the best results so that we can analyse the patient's best possible condition. Getting new machines and types of equipment is not an easy task we need so many planning the funds for the projects and implementation of those machines can become challenging part if we don't have a proper roadmap of resource management, funds, vendors suppliers, etc. Here Planview Portfolio smartly computes the all data counts all the variables and gives us the best roadmap to follow it is very useful to get crucial projects in organizations. If the organization doesn't have multiple projects or they work in a monotonous way then this tool might not be the best option for them.

Great for resource management and strategic planning. Screens are easy to read, metrics are easy to create and dashboards are easy to navigate. Using Planview Portfolios was a huge change for us. We have found it simple to use and customize and found it easy to adjust our users to adopting this platform. Standardizing our metrics has enabled consistency across our organization and impacted our productivity in such a positive way.

Keeping track of time for each project seems well suited. Creating user accounts require a lot of clicking through different sections, feel that this could be a little bit easier. However pulling user accounts are no issue, having to navigate to the different areas seems tedious as to some time having to double click just to get to one section.

It is well suited for an impressive list of scenarios, but Planview needs to develop a more scalable, reliable, and robust capability for customers to routinely extract large volumes of data for enterprise-wide Business Intelligence needs.

Planview Portfolios is well suited to organizing portfolios of programs and projects within the IT organization. It greatly aides our ability to align work (programs and projects) to strategic objectives and track progress toward benefits realization. When prioritizing these programs and projects, Planview Portfolios enables us to accurately evaluate priorities and resource capacity in order to make decisions about what projects and programs to execute

Planview Portfolios is great but it's a huge change after using SmartSheet for many years. It's pretty simple to learn but it takes the time and dedication to do so. The time tracking feature is fantastic to properly allocated resources to projects. Integrations to other tools takes time but that will definitely simplify the moving pieces.

Able to establish and execute governance of work. Resource utilization and leveraging of time reported to charge customers enables us to generate revenue to fund operations. Standardization of status reporting has enabled consistency across a large organization.

I think it's very well suited for Waterfall model projects and difficult to manage Agile projects. Please should come up with different templates for the Project creation.
