workflow streamlines processes and ensures activities are completed properly
The most valuable feature of OpenText Project and Portfolio Management is its workflow. The workflow is amazing and highly effective in streamlining processes. Additionally, it is used to ensure that activities are completed properly, as part of the typical project and portfolio management. It meets my needs as a good project and portfolio management tool.

Centralized project documents have improved remote collaboration but task workflows remain confusing
Regarding Procore Project Management's task scheduling feature for reducing project delays, I did not use the task management feature very much because it seemed difficult to set up. I did not care for the platform from a user-friendly perspective because I am more of a construction professional than a computer professional. Some of the features were hard to navigate through. I also found that true with some of the Whole Foods employees who were trying to use it. They were confused on how to approve things and get things completed in the task management. Additionally, some of the change order approval processes were unclear. They did not know how to approve them. When uploading a task, it was confusing to identify who was the approver of that document because the responsibility was doubled up. The task management section and the distribution list along with the project approval person designation were difficult and confusing to navigate through.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"With PPM allowing us to streamline processes, get them all in one place, and automate handovers and notifications, it saves us between 15 and 20 hours a week on things that we would have otherwise had to do ourselves in emails and other types of coordination."
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products."
"Micro Focus PPM is flexible and easy to use. It's simple to customize and configure workflows."
"Demand, project and time management parts of the tool are the most valuable."
"There are lots of project management tools that do a good job, but not so many that can manage portfolios and the bigger planning picture."
"Demand Management and reporting are the most valuable features."
"I like the ease of customization from an admin perspective. I'm really excited about some of the things that are coming in version 10.0.3 as far as what admins are able to do."
"The financial side of Procore Project Management is better."
"Other companies have been using it for years, and it is a very stable platform."
"What I appreciate about using Procore Project Management is the convenience of putting everything in one location, where pictures, schedules, blueprints, drawings, change orders, and all documents are accessible in one platform."
"The coordination between the field and the office without the need to print or physically transport drawings is very valuable."
 

Cons

"There are some limitations when it comes to attaching receipts. For example, if we are going to buy some non-labor-related assets such as hardware, we are not able to attach the receipts in the Financial Management module in version 9.41."
"Stops is complex and configuration is always needed."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"The product releases after 9.3 have many bugs in the Resource Management module."
"Program Management can be more functional to provide better program management."
"Portfolio scenarios: This is a very powerful feature. However, it’s limited to analyses."
"The user experience of the product needs to be improved"
"We had bad experience with technical support. They don't do their best to try to help us solve the case."
"It would be nice if the tool can reduce its operational cost. It would make it more competitive."
"I did not care for the platform from a user-friendly perspective because I am more of a construction professional than a computer professional."
"It takes time to use it. It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"HPE PPM SaaS model is comprehensive, however, the base fee component has customer resistance to its recurring setup,"
"We have an annual license, and it is fairly priced in comparison to that of other solutions."
"Now, we also received an increase in the support license prices, without any advanced notice. At this point, switching to unify all our licensing under HPE and customer support has been poor."
"Support and license management are two hurdles for us. Every time we purchase new licenses, it has taken us half a year to implement those."
"A large organization will find Micro Focus PPM affordable, but it may be a bit costly for a small or medium-sized company. The license is based on the number of users."
"It is SaaS without a base fee."
"There is an additional cost for product support"
"The tool is cheap and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
