What is Planview ProjectPlace?

Planview ProjectPlace is a collaborative work management product for PMOs. It covers the full project delivery lifecycle, from structured intake and governance through execution, team collaboration, and portfolio reporting, in a single workspace. It is designed for project managers and teams across any business function, not exclusively IT.


Single Workspace for Project Delivery

  • All business requests, active projects, and completed delivery live in one repository, so project managers and stakeholders work from the same data
  • Gantt-based project plans, Kanban boards, documents, and communication are housed together in the same workspace
  • Portfolio connection provides real-time visibility to leadership without a separate reporting exercise
  • Connects to Planview Portfolios and Planview PPM Pro; as of April 2026, durations and dates match across ProjectPlace and Portfolios with high fidelity


Governance from Intake to Delivery

  • A structured intake process categorizes, sizes, and routes every business request for approval before work starts
  • Financial plans, including cost and benefit estimates, are baselined and tracked against commitments
  • Change requests, risks, and issues consolidate automatically into project status reports
  • A full audit trail covers every review and approval


AI-Powered Risk Detection (Planview Anvi)

  • The Activity Risk Summarizer analyzes cards for schedule, assignee, status, and activity signals, producing structured summaries of risks, causes, and suggested mitigation
  • Sentiment analysis automatically reviews card comments and project status updates, surfacing positive, neutral, or negative trends
  • Anvi Chat generates status updates, timeline risk assessments, and resource sufficiency checks from live workspace data, and provides natural-language help and guidance
  • Anvi Agents run pre-built, multi-prompt workflows manually or on a schedule, including Summarize Plan and Execution, Review Work Progress, and Determine Portfolio Health
  • Anvi operates strictly within the logged-in user's permissions and cannot access data the user cannot access


Team Collaboration and Delivery

  • Kanban boards support card-level task management, linked directly to plan activities
  • Document management includes version control, review workflows, DocuSign integration, and data loss prevention
  • In-workspace collaboration includes panels, whiteboards, @mentions, and real-time notifications
  • External members, such as vendors, contractors, and partners, can be invited to individual workspaces with scoped access
  • Workspace templates support faster project startup
  • iOS and Android mobile apps include offline access for updating card status, reviewing documents, and managing tasks


Reporting and Visibility

  • Project, portfolio, and personal dashboards provide visibility at multiple levels
  • The workload view shows capacity and assignments across all account members and workspaces
  • Burn-up, cumulative flow, and cycle time charts support delivery analysis
  • Time tracking compares actual effort against estimates


Integrations and Security

  • Integrates with Microsoft Teams, Slack, Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Box, Microsoft SharePoint, Google Workspace, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Power BI, Microsoft Power Automate, Zapier, and DocuSign
  • ISO-27001 certified, with 256-bit AES encryption of files in transit and at rest
  • Single sign-on, two-step verification, and role-based access controls support enterprise security requirements
  • Rated Enterprise-Ready by Skyhigh Networks and a Cloud Security Alliance STAR participant
