ProjectPlace can be started in minutes and scales as new team members join. Since work types vary, ProjectPlace is flexible to fit the job at hand – traditional projects, roadmaps or unstructured work where groups just need to “get stuff done”.

ProjectPlace is a great solution for our smaller projects. They don't need the level of detail that large corporate projects require. These smaller projects are usually smaller teams and more collaborative than our larger projects. We loved the kanban board, the agility of the product, and that communication was at the forefront. Notifications, work, files, hours, everything we needed in one place.

- Smoother integration with Enterprise One

ProjectPlace for Project Team Collaboration
Score 10 out of 10
Vetted Review

Our organization implemented ProjectPlace with integration into Planview Portfolios. We've used it for project collaboration and document storage. It's ability to be the "home base" for project teams is great, and new features keep appearing that enhance the capabilities. Using PP allows us to keep the information in Portfolios fairly high-level, which eases what can be a big burden in terms of effort to manage projects in there.

- Collaboration

ProjectPlace offers a fun way to collaborate on projects

ProjectPlace offers a user friendly extremely customizable application to support collaborations among members of a project team. Kanban Boards are my favorite and being able to link my plan to my plan in Portfolios is a great help. Being able to email a board to create a card is a great time saver and so helpful for not losing track of tasks requested of you.
- Interaction with office products like Outlook and Teams
- Ability to brainstorm with other team members via white boards
- activity tracking/planning with Kanban Boards
- User management could use improvment - I wish there was an option to deactivate a user rather than completely deleting them
- the ability for users to invite external users to the platform is a concern for our Information Security team, it would be great if that feature could be turned off
- More reporting options!!!

I am currently using the platform to organize my timeline not only for my own projects , but for the projects my team is working on. It keeps us on track and motivated. I really like the board and cards as a visual checklist of who needs to be accomplishing what. We can all add to the workspace and upload documents, and leave messages about cards created.
- It is very robust and organized
- I like the integration with PPM PRO
- I am still new, but not sure what is missing yet.

- I like using the Reports feature and viewing the milestone report
- Whiteboard and Templates such as the Retrospective and SWOT Analysis
- Document Storage / Repository is easy to use and able to break down into hierarchy
- The Kanban boards and Gantt charts are well done and very useful
- Better Ad hoc reports
- Large file transfers are sometimes challenging
- There is no "undo" button in project plan

Planview Projectplace, it's another integrated planning App!
I can easily see who is working on what, when tasks are due, and who is and isn't at capacity. It's completely invaluable to me as a project/account manager and allows me and my team to just get things done. For other projects, we found this software to be as well extremely useful as it allows external companies access as easily as internal employees. Using kanban-style task cards (boards) makes tracking project activities very easy!
- Email Reminders.
- Task Tracking.
- To Do Lists.
- Under the time tracking, it would be nice to have a set template that would load each week and not have to click a button to load the previous week's template.
- Somehow making it more intuitive.
- Having to add in each service line and each detail that I cover for every service line each week is a bit ridiculous.

Projectplace for accidental project managers
Planview Projectplace is used as a standalone as well as with Planview Enterprise One in Flowserve. R&D and operational projects use the integrated method and there are other functions like legal and supply chain we use to manage patents and strategic projects. Users include people from all over the world and at all levels of employee, from associate engineers to C-level executives. Planview Projectplace has added lot of value for us, as most of our project managers fall in the "accidental project managers" category and this helped us to bring them onboard. We were very successful in delivering our organizational transformation program using these tools. It's been great asset for us!
- Manage cards and boards.
- Documentation.
- Simple plan for simple projects.
- Integration with Planview Enterprise One.
- User administration needs to be easier. Deactivation and delete always confuses.
- Custom field configuration at a higher level that can be defined to be used for a set of projects.

Easy to set up and use for all sizes of projects
We use Planview Projectplace to manage traditional waterfall and SCRUM projects. It's used throughout the organization and helps to centralize project work. Most employees are in different geographical locations, so it makes tracking project work easier. We use English language only.
- The boards are very easy to use to track project work.
- It's easy and quick to create workspaces for a team.
- Creating and managing tasks is easy.
- Bidirectional connection with PPM Pro.
- More control of font colors and the ability to bold text on cards.
- More control over email notifications.

Projectplace Elevates the Agile Workspace
Projectplace is being used across multiple divisions and global-operating companies to manage our R&D projects.
- Document storage.
- Kanban boards.
- Conversations.
- Projectplace completion of tasks has to be closed on multiple levels and don't automatically close the task in PPM Pro.
- Add a "due this month" option in Boards, sorting by the due date. I would like to see not only what is overdue and due in the next two weeks.
- Finished tasks still sort as overdue on the boards even though they are finished.

Planview Projectplace is currently in UAT and I'm learning to use it for my team and to share with other agencies. It's still very new. English is the language. My team will use Projectplace to manage tasks and deliverables for all major IT project supports. Track action items, risk, issues and create a dashboard that syncs with Planview Enterprise One.

Planview Projectplace - Multipurpose project management tool
Planview is used to manage projects, documents, persons working, and to interact with each other.
With the help of Planview Projectplace my organization is working efficiently by managing all things in one place. It is also accessible by every device, whether it be a laptop, mobile phone, or tablet. In the past, it was used on a trial basis by a few teams. Gradually it has been put into use by the whole organization. Also, teams located in different nations interact on it. In my organization, it is used in the English language.

- It manages teams very well. Teamwork is the key to success and with the help of [Planview Projectplace], the job is done easily, without any hassle.
- Everyone involved in a project can very efficiently view the progress or what's next in the pipeline.
- The most enjoyable feature is the charts. With the help of charts, projects/teams become easy to manage.
- Another particular feature worth receiving acknowledgment is kanban boards. With the help of it, visualization becomes so simple.
- Sharing documents, because interacting with teammates is efficient with the help of it.
- The most important thing is pricing. Big organizations can still afford to use it, but small startups or mid-level companies will have to think twice before choosing it.
- User Interface (UI) is not as crispy as compared to other tools in the market. The UI can definitely be improved.
- Slow internet ruins this software usage completely. A lighter version should be available to use when your network is slow.
- Without proper training, it would be messy to understand and use the software at its full potential. So good training should exist.

An overall solid project management tool for larger teams
Really liked the Kanban board and Gantt chart features. I have a team of 4 from 4 different locations and them being able to see real-time status updates and be able to collaborate right away saves so much time. We hardly have to meet on Zoom anymore! Document management is another great built-in feature—so useful!
- Kanban boards - visual and no brainer to use, it's easy to the "do, doing, done" overall view of things.
- Document management - really like that this is in-built.
- Time-tracking - great to keep an eye on how much time is spent on what.
- The user interface could be definitely be upgraded and streamlined. It's just not that pleasing to look at compared to other similar software out there.
- It's not easy to link and manage different projects that fall under an overall umbrella.
- No proper offline solution. You need to be always connected to a good, strong internet to use it properly.
Planview Projectplace is a Project Management Software which has agile tracking and standup meetings for accelerating software development and increasing agile methods. Overall, Planview Projectplace is a place where me and my team can plan and get everyone aligned. We can also share a timeline with the team then work towards the main and ultimate goal. Other than that, Planview Projectplace is also used by various other groups throughout my organization and even some departments use it for single projects.
- Planview Projectplace streamlines interaction between activities within and outside the organization.
- Planview Projectplace helps in reducing meetings because we are able to collaborate within the tool.
- I am greatly satisfied with Planview Projectplace as the document management in Planview Projectplace is of top-notch quality.
- When it comes to Planview Projectplace then there is training required as you will be learning how to manage everybody with one tool.
- The ‘download’ option for documents is somewhat hidden and it would be nice if the ‘download’ option is next to the file or at least present at a more visible spot. I feel like pictures help a lot when explaining any information so pictorial representation is one thing that is missing in this software that requires attention.

Useful tool for remote teams!
We use Projectplace as a way to manage workflows and projects within our Marketing organization. We use the workspace function to organize teams within our group (digital, creative, different business units), and then the boards within the workspaces to organize the different projects within that group. We also use the documents function as a repository for our files during each project. Our main team is based here in Silicon Valley, but we have team members in The Netherlands and Scotland as well.
- Setting up workflows - it's great to see the status of other team members on projects
- Locking files - I like how when a file is checked out in a workflow, others can't access it to make edits until it is unlocked
- Organization of groups/boards
- A lot of our work is dependent on others - content needs to be created before it is laid out on a page, etc - so I wish we could set up email alerts so that cards that are linked to each other can automatically trigger an email informing that a certain task is done so another team member can start their card.
- Bulk assignment of cards in a project would be useful. In addition, when we duplicate projects, it would be great to have the option to push over the card assignments as well, so we don't have to assign one-by-one.
I was first introduced to Planview Projectplace while working with a client in construction during the pandemic. The client runs multiple projects at a time that need several teams to work together and Planview Projectplace was their solution of choice as it was reliable enough to handle their multi-team projects. It was chosen primarily because it could connect teams of 50+ in different departments working in multiple locations on construction projects together. The ability to work together in real time improved their productivity and also helped them adapt to working through a pandemic. They primarily use English as the default language for Planview Projectplace.
- As a cloud based solution, Projectplace is one of the few true multiple location, multi person project management tools available for large teams. The reliability for large projects (with teams of anywhere between 50-200+ people) was a huge selling point for this and I witnessed this first hand.
- The Windows and Mac applications for Projectplace are well designed and work impressively well for a project management tool. I found most of the teams had either application installed on their machine and did not have any complaints about it.
- Features like AI and project management viewing styles like Kanban, Ganntt and others make the experience customizable for each user and made them adapt it to their preferred project management style.
- It is quite pricey for smaller organizations when you compare the annual cost, there are many other solutions that can get the job done for less. In this regard, it is viewed more as an enterprise solution than a solution for any business of any size.
- While it is a good project management tool, it can be overwhelming to use if you have a lot of tasks and project info to sort through since it is not as intuitive as other project management tools. You may need to have a dedicated person to keeping bigger projects organized.
[Planview Projetplace is used for] different kinds of R&D projects.
Small and big projects that are handled in 3 different countries. Different project leaders and teams. German and English is used. Access to project documentation in different departments can be granted and and all stakeholders are informed live about current project status. Engineering projects have been addressed in the past, but we’re not continued with the system.

- Task assigning to single persons and self driven feedback about status
- Document distribution with rights, versions and integration into tasks
- Classical gang view together with task boards
- Report about project status
- Gantt planning needs improvement to assign “pre-activities
- Clarification on how best combination of boards and activities work together. Boards are linked to activities restrictively, if you don’t know, you have to set up everything new. E.g. making department boards that cannot be linked to general project phases when different departments work on
- Roadmap planning is confusing and doesn’t being added value. Needs improvement and clear guideline on how to use
- Project portfolio management is too low level. Should be expanded to handle multiple projects overview

Easy-to-deploy solution with a very high price tag
Planview Projectplace is specifically designed for Portfolio and Resource management, as opposed to only manage single projects, so it mostly makes sense if you are a company with enough programs running in parallel. It was used as part of our selection process to update our project methodology and better serve multiple customers. Because multiple offices over the world and various languages are used, as well as significant differences in project sizes, we needed to have a very simple yet effective solution to manage it all.
- It has every basic feature you'd expect from a portfolio solution
- Strong document management (tracking, security, collaboration, etc.)
- Easy drilldown and dependencies analysis across projects
- Pricing - the PPM market is saturated at a bargain price, and Projectplace does not offer anything unique
- In the end, it was too simple for us and did not fit with agile frameworks such SAFe
- Very limited API capabilities makes it difficult to integrate the tool with your technology stack, and even standard 3rd-party solutions such as Zoom took months before getting released

A Great Project Management Software
Planview Projectplace is a work management software that has been developed to offer project management software with work collaboration solutions. Planview Projectplace features tasks like Kanban boards, Gantt charts, Document Management, To-Do Lists, and much more. This software has made life easier because it thoroughly keeps a check and track on the progress of the work happening within an organization.
- The first and foremost benefit of Planview Projectplace is that it is a web-based application that is easy to use and has a mobile application that works pretty good too.
- Planview Projectplace is also used to view our documents in a chronological way.
- I have been using this software and from my experience, I feel that this software is great for every type of resource and portfolio management.
- It is also a reasonable platform.
- While there are many pros of Planview Projectplace, there are certain cons to consider as well. Firstly, updating cards on this particular software takes a lot of time. Also, I personally think that reports and dashboards can be made much better and improvised for the end audience.
- Moreover, its video conferencing tool is also a bit unstable and poor as compared to other features that are being offered by Planview Projectplace.
- Additionally, Planview Projectplace has many chances to stimulate their existing tools so that organizations can get help in automating their processes.

Unique project management platform
Regardless of whether groups are based inside or outside the organization, we have had the option to eventually accomplish project objectives by utilizing Plainview Project place. Groups are enabled to make plans and put out objectives and work together utilizing the Kanban sheets. Each individual from the group can assume responsibility for their undertakings and responsibilities utilizing individual to-do lists. My department is having excellent experience in project management with this tool and I am a satisfied user.
- Planview Projectplace is a dependable task at the board stage that permits associations to follow and deal with their ventures naturally and guarantee their consummation on schedule.
- We use Planview Project place in our all offices to execute and deal with the entirety of our tasks within the specified time. It gives reliable services.
- I like that it offers archive the executives and report stockpiling, and so on It simplifies convoluted activities by separating what undertakings need to complete and when.
- It is an easy to use platform.
- It's natural and fits entirely in all associations including even the little and fair-sized ones. At times helpless web associations upset the appropriate working of the product looming its usage. The stage is influenced by helpless web associations deferring the entrance of different undertaking points of interest and tasks. I was exceptionally amazed when I was first acquainted with Project place that there is no monetary following segment in the application. On the off chance that somebody is dealing with an undertaking, they need an approach to deal with the spending plan.

Make project planning easy
We use this software as an online collaborative platform to manage our projects that need to be completed. We use the Kanban boards and Gantt charts to display this information in a way that makes it easy for our team to interact with.
- This tool has helped us keep track of milestones in an organized way.
- Creates and keeps track of budgeting, etc.
- Interface is extremely easy to use.
- My only complaint about it is that it is higher in terms of cost than other platforms that are out there.
- The integrations are not as various as other platforms out there that do similar things.
