Planview for time reporting is terrible

  • February 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There's not one thing I like about Planview. Though I only report project time in this system, and do not use any other aspect of this app, I don't like it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pages and navigation are not intuitive. The system is not easy to use when adding projects to a weekly time sheet. for each week, I have to find the jobs I've worked on to add them to the time sheet rather than for each time sheet, listing ALL recent projects, like the last 4 weeks of projects, just not last weeks projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
None using this application

Good software for project management tools

  • November 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a good tool for managing project timing and hours. It's cloud-based and available everywhere to the client. As a user and an admin, I can wholeheartedly recommend Planview.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the mobile tools are hard to work with. That's more a device-side issue, but it's there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management hours, tracking, and assignments.

Great for managing projects across multiple offices

  • July 05, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In higher education, many offices provide independent services while being housed under the same division. This tool has streamlined the process of developing a singular project to which all offices will play a role.
What do you dislike about the product?
The offices with younger staff are able to contribute their insights to each project fairly timely. Offices with individuals who do not have a natural inclination toward technology tend to go around the software and try to submit their contributions/edits through hard copies and email because they don't understand how to use it. In theory, this software works, but we're going to have to develop a live training on how to use this project for the entire division, which will cost time and money.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously, communication and strategy had been extremely disorganized and chaotic at best. Now, all offices can contribute to each project on their own time without having to schedule a slew of in-person meetings (assuming they know how to use the program).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider how comfortable you/your co-workers are with software of this nature before deciding to purchase and implement it. There are many good uses for it, but it can be a headache for those who don't have natural affinity for tech.

Splendid Experience!

  • June 19, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Projects are effortlessly shared and saw. I like the element that permits me appointing undertakings over my designers and analyzers. We are in the framework every day and people inside divisions take responsibility for individual parts while partaking in an "open" arrangement. This makes it simple to see where I've spent a considerable measure of my work week time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not having the capacity to predefine or set a default set of assignments per new client story made with predefined proprietors set. This one is not necessary feature but it is a little annoying to start from scratch every time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are utilizing Planview to deal with our activities that include numerous groups and phases of advancement.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely recommended.

Great Target achieving and resource management tool

  • May 14, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PlanView lets you manage any project and resources in a very explicit manner.
One can easily see which person is working on which project, what is the team composition, what are the goals and their deadlines.
What I liked most is that I don't have to wait for seniors to find out whom to contact to. I quickly search in planview for the particular person to contact.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting up to speed on the tool at the very beginning was a bit of a fight for us as we didn’t want to spend consulting hours on it. Hand Holding at initial stage would be beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business aspects that I am aware of are that it is being used for project management, forecasting, budgeting and it is a timesheet for every employee and contractor to be completed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Having visibility of project information from start to finish is a lot more beneficial than only a portion of it so make sure it's used by all users in change.

Project Portfolio Management

  • May 13, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a great tool for managing and analyzing our project portfolio. It tracks the project changes from ideation, through planning & approval, to its closing. We use it to apply our resources in an efficient way relative to the potential value of our projects. Also, the data stored helps in providing visibility and is later on useful for analytics and future project planning.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its definitely not user friendly for the beginners. Making customized workflows is a bit challenging and can be made more intuitive. Also, we had some issues while integrating it with the current softwares we use, mainly with Salesforce.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it for managing our project portfolio. It has eliminated the need of recreating the weekly reports for tracking and analyzing the project progress and pending work. It has helped in better allocating resources according to project requirements.

Tool for putting project dynamics at one place

  • May 09, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is a very good management tool for a tracking all the deadlines of our project. We are a big team that works on monthly product delivery. We have to release specific module every other week for the delivery. Through this tool our manager can set the tasks for a particular resource and track the current status, work done and pending activities. In this way it has become very manageable for us to log our efforts against any task and know the current status. We are always able to meet the deadlines.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using this tool to log my efforts for the tasks assigned to me weekly. The only drawback i have come across yet is that you can only put effort against your assigned activities. Any extra work that you have done will go unidentified.
