Overall Satisfaction with Planview Projectplace
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.

Would you buy Planview ProjectPlace again?
Yes
It offers a simpler alternative that's easier to manage by the less tech-savvy people. I also think that Planview Projectplace has managed to keep the product updated compared to other project management tools. Miro is perhaps the one that comes to mind, but while evaluating, we saw fewer issues with Planview Projectplace. Overall, the decision came down to the project manager, that had previous experience and recommended the product.
For me, using a product from a smaller company is better because I know that there will be a focus on improving it, unlike, for example, Microsoft products that can be discontinued at any moment.

Planview ProjectPlace Feature Ratings
Evaluating Planview Projectplace and Competitors
- Product Reputation
- Prior Experience with the Product
Prior experience was the most important for the decision because the project manager had used the product before. However, it also lined up well against the alternatives we had been considering. Overall, the project manager felt that Planview Projectplace would be the right tool for the team to get back on track with their efficiency, and it has worked out as expected.
If it were up to me to decide, I'd ask for demos of the products. For this software, we did not really need the training for the team, as the learning curve was quite quick. However, I'd consider we were lucky with regards to this, and I'd rather receive a full demo and training promise from the vendor.

No, because we never felt like we needed it. The team was confident in the use of software, and all we really need to reach out to the company is the additional licenses.
No, I have not had a lot of interaction with the support.
