Product Details

What is Planview ProjectPlace?

ProjectPlace is the collaborative work management solution from Planview that brings teams together to get work done. Whether a team is down the hall or on the other side of the globe, ProjectPlace aims to provide everything needed to set direction, communicate, execute tasks, track progress, and ultimately achieve goals. A key value proposition is to be one tool designed to work together rather than a collection of point solutions.

The vendor says the the product is built with teams of all size and complexity in mind, from virtual teams of five to entire global enterprises with tens of thousands of active users. 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”.

Very easy to implement and train. Very simplistic project/task management toolset that anyone can use.
  • Easy to implement.
  • Easy to train.
  • Easy to use.
  • Streamlined document management linkage to SharePoint online
  • Out of the box reporting
Suited for 'accidental project manager' where high level project management training is limited.

Not appropriate for full financial tracking of the project expenses.

We use ProjectPlace along with PPM Pro as our project management of all our new product development projects as well as a few other places we are starting to use it as well.
  • Provides a place for all team members to collaborate in one place for each project.
  • Provides a good view of team members work that is ready to be worked on
  • Ability to customize each workspace home overview page
  • Ability to add attachments to multiple cards all at the same time
  • On team page be able to view by the new sorting option of with done dependencies
  • When adding teams to a workspace, being able to add more than one at a time
  • Have a pop up if someone completes a card before prior dependencies are complete, asking if sure should be done?
  • Ability to chose and add multiple documents to multiple cards at same time
Like any thing, there are some great things and some things that could be improved upon.
The workspaces are a great way to keep all the project documents, conversations, and tasks visible to all
We have a few issues with some of the interaction between PPM Pro & ProjectPlace, but have seen some improvements in the last 2 years as well.
It would be great to have someone available to answer more questions when come across something that doesn't seem to be working quite right

We use ProjectPlace as our Client Facing Project Management tool for our implementation projects.
  • Communication. Love the ability to message teams and groups
  • Document Sharing
  • Planning & Task Management
  • I would like the ability to create a level of security for the main documents screen. If docs are placed there accidentally, it can be seen by all.
  • I would like the ability to put in an hour's capacity by week for a resource and be able to be flagged when an assignee has maximized their capacity
  • I would love for the plan view to show in a calendar view - not just a gantt chart where we can determine the items being added to the calendar
I love the ease and use of ProjectPlace in communicating with team members and clients. We encourage our users to utilize the messaging features rather than email. Then use search to track down a thread. All in one place rather than searching thru emails when incidents occur, I wish the Roadmap tool was available in ProjectPlace as our organization is moving to Agile. I wish ProjectPlace allowed a few more of the features from AgilePlace or that the two were integrated directly

Easy to use roadmapping tool that we were quickly able to deploy within our governance, change management, and Agile teams. Extremely user-friendly and intuitive to utilize.
  • Easy to use without detailed training
  • Tracking plans
  • Creating tasks / cards - like a kanban board
  • Ability to delete the activities and cards faster by highlighting item to delete quicker
-Roadmapping
-Project planning
-Sharing project schedule with project stakeholders with a URL

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.
  • Document storage
  • Collaboration
  • Kanban boards
  • Notifications
Well-suited for project team collaboration. Less well-suited for operational teams and sharing information that needs to be accessible to a broad audience, due to the need to invite individual users to each workspace.

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!!!
Projectplace is great for casual projects that don't need all of the financials and reporting options. For our governed projects we use Portfolios or a combination of ProjectPlace and Portfolios

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.
It is easy to use with co-workers who have also used ProjectPlace. When someone new joins, it does take a little longer to explain the functionality because it is so robust. But overall, the help functions and help resources are very thorough even if you are not completely tech savvy.

ProjectPlace is our official repository for all project documentation that we use/create as we go through our projects. It is very intuitive and doesn't take a genius to operate.
  • 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 is well suited for housing important documents.

It was being used by the design department for everyday work. Their projects were being done slowly, so they hired a project manager, who preferred to use Planview Projectplace. We have been supporting the product and assigning licenses. Only English is the language for the software, and it is being used only in one location.

The main problem it has been addressing is the communication between team members and work prioritization. Instead of the work being sent to them by email, they are now planning the most important tasks ahead.
  • Demand management
  • Reporting
  • Security
  • User management
  • Reporting
  • Integrations (with Salesforce)
  • Program/portfolio management
  • Ticketing
It is best suited for smaller teams that want to organize their work into projects. I now realize why the new project manager for the team chose this software over others. It allows for collaboration and work prioritization. Time management has improved significantly, and its UI is quite easy to understand for the users that don't spend a lot of time on software. Training new users in the team is also quite easy, and it gets coworkers out of their emails to focus on projects.

For teams that need to deliver projects urgently because of current events, the software works especially well. It allows concentration on a specific topic as well as teamwork, where many different individuals need to contribute in a short period of time.

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.
It works well for a supervisor to keep an eye on their underlings. I think this is a great idea and a nice app for keeping projects in one place and able to create plans, get projects organized, set goals and so much more. I love that it is all in one place and can be worked on by the whole team. It is very convenient. I am able to organize my projects and complete them before a deadline.

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.
Planview Projectplace is best suited for managing smaller/simpler projects and definitely for "accidental project managers," who do not know all the elements of project management. Using cards and boards helps any user/engineer to manage their projects. In my opinion, this might not be appropriate for complex projects which might have very complex plans--lots of task relationships or interdependencies--and track the progress in terms of schedule and financials against baselines. That is where E1 integration helps!

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.
It has been great for managing traditional projects and sprints. Once the pandemic started, we started it using it much more.

We implemented Projectplace and integrated it with PPM PRO this year. We are long time users of PPM PRO and are currently piloting Projectplace within the Information Services Department. The application is being used by a variety of users both experiences and inexperienced project managers in order to gain perspective of how we can best utilize the functionality within our organization. We are primarily English speaking and located in Raleigh, NC.
  • Team collaboration.
  • Roadmapping.
  • Task management.
  • Reporting would be nice.
  • Ability to use MS Teams instead of Zoom for quick face to face meetings.
So far we have found that its simplicity in functionality works well with departments that do not have trained PMs managing projects. Not sure it would be the best fit for all projects in the organization, but others can use PPM PRO where more robust reporting and metrics are needed.

[Planview Projectplace] is being used to streamline our Project Management approach across our global business. We are implementing across functions one by one to centralize our reporting. While there has been a learning curve, it has created endless opportunities for advancement.
  • Notification management.
  • User permissions.
  • Gantt charts.
  • Reporting extracts.
  • Linkage between workspaces in one portfolio.
  • More viewing/editing options for users.
It is great for global projects and for unique projects that require customization. It is not great for non-PMs to manage alone as there is so much opportunity for customization that it can be underutilized.
