Pros

It is a fantastic tool to utilize, particularly when managing many sites. Planview and Microsoft Project are highly similar, which makes implementation simpler. It is also useful for monitoring finances across many projects.

Cons

The interface makes it difficult to find allocated projects and line items to show expenditures and add time tracking to them. Although the portal is simple to use, new users may find the interface challenging.

Pros

There are a lot of features we love about this software. For example, allocating resources to the person per the CAPEX and OPEX budget codes and reporting capabilities such as project status, estimated vs. actual hours worked etc. It is also helpful in managing the project portfolio.

Cons

It is challenging to use due to a steep learning curve. It does regularly crash and glitch, and there is no way to quickly fix a mistake. When your business is working on many different projects, and the navigation and search features frequently dont perform properly, it can become inconvenient.

Pros

Even though it has only been a few months since we switched to Planview from another software, I wish we had done it sooner. Working with it and obtaining the information we require has been great. I particularly appreciate the opportunities for financial analysis across several projects.

Cons

The names of several of the columns in Planview dont make sense, which is what I like least about it. For instance, "Project Start Date" stops displaying the accurate project date after the project begins. Also, not all but some of the employees have found the software difficult to use.
