Overall Satisfaction with Projectplace
- Introduced a common tool and language
- Made everyone a “PM”
- Universally adopted across IT for all projects > 100 hours
- Portfolio views enable cross-departmental project visibility
- Teams now organize and collaborate on “non-projects” such as event management, personnel recruiting, operational maintenance, personal “to do” lists, etc.
- It's flexible. Can be used effectively for such things as simple as a personal to-do list, to a complex, multi-phased project, be it waterfall or agile.
- It's easy. Minimal training is required to get users up to speed and using it.
- It's mobile and social. The mobile apps are very good and work seamlessly with the social collaboration features inherent to the tool.
- Account administration could use some work. Does not afford the detailed data or knobs and levers to manage the account at a granular level. For example, the inability to assign departments to external (non-account) project members.
- New features get rolled out fairly frequently, but sometimes with only partial functionality and with little fanfare or supporting documentation.
- It is mobile, social, intuitive and has an engaging experience
- It has the flexibility to track all projects, strategic to operational
- It has eliminated email for project related activities and status reporting
- It is cloud based, and deployed out of the box with no customization
