Planview PPM Pro Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Planview PPM Pro in the PMO to track projects, schedules, expenses, and issues/risks.

Likelihood to Recommend

Planview is a great software program for tracking projects. It has all the functionality you need to get started and they are adding more capabilities all the time including AI functions and widgets.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Planview PPM Pro and Projectplace together to manage our New Product Projects. With 200+ new projects needed a management tool to keep track of progress of all of them.

Likelihood to Recommend

Reports and Dashboards have helped show where/how all our projects are doing, but the integration with ProjectPlace has some issues

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using PPM Pro in all our projects covering both waterfall and agile modes of fulfilling projects. The integration through Tasktop makes the integration almost seamless and we realize the results of our planing through the details of Jira or other SDLC products.

It is very easy to learn, easy to use and a record migration of projects to the system.

Likelihood to Recommend

PPM pro is an amazing fast to deploy and fast to get started in the almost all needed functionality you need to run your PMO. It is an economic and easy to learn.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Planview PPM Pro as our Project Management Tool in [...] IT. We enter project requests which are reviewed and quoted by the delivery teams and then approved by the Business Relationship Management in the workflow. Later they are turned into Projects and we manage the projects in the Tool. We are trying to have all the Projects from [...] IT in that Tool because we also do Reporting on the Projects. These reports are mostly for our VPs and Business Partners to see the overview of what is going on currently.

Likelihood to Recommend

Planview PPM Pro is for centralized project solution is good.

Maybe not so suitable for large enterprise solution.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My organization uses PPM Pro for Project and Portfolio Management. It is highly configurable, allowing us maximum flexibility in adding or removing data points and generating many reports and dashboards to monitor project progress and health.

Likelihood to Recommend

Planview is wonderful if you have a large number of projects and want to group them into portfolios. It seems less useful if you have only a handful of projects.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Planview PPM Pro for project and portfolio management as our System of Record for all projects. Planview allows for visibility across all levels of the organization of ongoing and planned projects. Using Planview allows us to have a seamless progression from demand intake to project creation. It also allows us to track project phases and process gates. Another benefit of Planview is that is allows us to manage resources with its resource capacity tracking capabilities.

Likelihood to Recommend

Planview PPM Pro has been super helpful for planning and managing projects and requests. I think the reporting has great insight to request and project management. However, it can be quite difficult to create simple reports. The report builder is not very easy to use, and is missing many capabilities seen in various other reporting tools. Being able to have visibility to all current requests and being able to easily turn it into a project is extremely useful.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Within my organization, PMO uses PPMPro in order to track action items, issues, decisions, as well as time allocations for project core team members, project priority ranking, and core team member assignments. PMO uses all of the information for our projects in PPMPro to create dashboards for senior leadership presentations and communications. PMO also uses PPMPro as a one-stop shop for all things project related and enforces its use amongst our dedicated project core teams.

Likelihood to Recommend

PPMPro is well suited for tracking new product introduction projects, as well as process changes. It serves to reliably track ongoing action items, issues, resource allocations for projects.

Areas where PPMPro is less appropriate for use: Project to project dependencies, automating action item notifications on multiple platforms, integrations of PPMPro into other platforms PMO typically uses (like MS Projects, Teams, ppt, etc)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use PPM Pro to manage projects and strategic programs. We use for the details of project and capacity management, tracking risks and issues, sharing information, and providing transparency to our portfolio of work.

Likelihood to Recommend

PPM Pro is well suited as is for customers tracking waterfall projects or managing agile tasks elsewhere and making data from that tool available for reporting. Another tool would likely be better for a team or department that is fully agile.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Planview PPM Pro serves as the source of truth with regard to Project Health, Progress, Status, and Financials. We leverage the tool for Portfolio, Project, and Resource Management. We leverage the timekeeping features. We leverage multiple categories of Request and Issue Entities,

Likelihood to Recommend

PPM Pro is not well suited for Executive Level Reporting.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Planview PPM Pro to manage our portfolio of IT projects. All projects are tracked within the system as well as time spent on each project. On a bi-weekly basis the portfolio is reviewed with the team to address any projects that require help or support. All project financials are also tracked within the system.

Likelihood to Recommend

Planview PPM Pro is a fantastic tool to manage a portfolio of projects in an easy to use and intuitive approach. The data is all integrated which allows for information coming together is various modules. In addition, all reporting is real-time which helps increase the trust in the information that is presented. I highly recommend this product.
