Overall Satisfaction with Planview Portfolios

Planview Portfolios allowed us to see all of our work across a truly global, large, complex IT organization for the first time. The value it has created has been enormous so much so that we have other functions within the organization desperate to join the IT teams in using its capabilities! It's resulted in my team being very busy!
  • Visibility.
  • Persona based views - reporting and tiles.
  • Robust system.
  • There is a lot to take on - many users experience information overload.
  • UI is a bit 'old' but improvements are coming soon.
  • Resource Management.
  • Visibility of the portfolio.
  • Financial Management.
  • Soft benefits such as increased visibility and transparency of the work being done.

Would you buy Planview Portfolios again?

Yes

Portfolios are 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.
