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.

We use the product to design online courses. It also helps us with media production and marketing.  Teamwork has made process management easier and much better. It is very robust and improves by making a lot of changes. It is easy to use and has lots of reports. The product is expensive. It needs…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The financial management is very extensive, complete and easy to use without too much configuration."
"Overall, they have a very strong workflow management capability. That's a very strong feature because then you can model any process easily. Whether it is a demand management process, a pipeline management process, or your project delivery methodology, it is much easier because of their workflow management capability."
"At the top of my mind, I can't really tell, but functionality wise and time and effort wise it has done miracles here."
"Micro Focus Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) has a very strong workflow engine."
"It's a very detailed tool. As far as an enterprise is concerned, it gives you the flexibility to manage everything: portfolios, projects, finances, proposals, resources, and time... It takes care of even the minor details that need to be captured. The project management functionality is configured really well within the tool. That stands out."
"Recent Program Management lifecycle, Program Management aggregation views due to interactive UI (selection of risks, issues, and changes in Program Overview) and “flash look & feel" of this functional chunk, which is different in comparison to other parts of HPE PPM."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is resource planning or resource management."
"I recommend this solution; it is very good for simple projects."
"It is a very stable solution...The initial setup of Teamwork is easy."
"Teamwork has made process management easier and much better. It is very robust and improves by making a lot of changes. It is easy to use and has lots of reports."
"The setup was very easy. Deployment was very fast for us. We started using it within two weeks."
 

Cons

"The product releases after 9.3 have many bugs in the Resource Management module."
"Sometimes, yes. Especially in a Windows environment."
"Micro Focus PPM should be less dependent on coding. It could also benefit from some updates to the software architecture. These have been on the roadmap for years now, but they haven't been released."
"Budget management could be provided. Reports could be enriched."
"Better user interface. Usability in terms of better UX."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"Currently, HPE PPM does not allow “Project” approval, but only simple “Demand Request” approval (mobility)."
"We had a couple of issues with stability or performance degradation about a year ago, around the time of the initial rollout. Since then, we've only had two unexpected outages that were quickly resolved."
"The screen sharing provided by the solution can be a challenge to a user. Screen sharing is an area that needs improvement in the solution."
"The product is expensive. It needs to have a more robust and customizable calendar."
"The product could be improved with more integrations and a mobile app."
 

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."
"It is SaaS without a base fee."
"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."
"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."
"There is an additional cost for product support"
"We negotiate on pricing since we are a long-term user."
"My company makes annual payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
