VR
Project Manager at Taco Cabana, Inc.
Provides good visibility and clearly shows priorities; entering tasks needs an upgrade
The solution is valuable because it gives our executives a high level of understanding of what's going on. I like the portfolio aspect that shows all the projects and the budget and you can see the priorities and whether the project is on track or not. It has good visibility.

Project manager at CTS Electronic Components
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

"The timesheet & staffing management function gives us clarity in terms of how capacity planning has to happen and how much actual effort is going into the programs. The risk and project status information gets captured in the project gives more clarity for stakeholders to understand how the programs are running. We have only explored a portion of the application features so far."
"The product's deployment is straightforward."
"It is flexible, because so far we haven't been able to figure out anything that it cannot do. It's highly configurable. We've added custom field design screens to fit our needs, develop reports, and dashboards that give us the ability to deliver much better information, especially to senior IT management."
"The solution's time-tracking abilities are one of the strong points. The only challenge is enabling it to the minute-level task. It's not at a project level but it's at an organization level. If I want it to be at a higher level as compared to some of the other projects where I want it to go to the nth level of a task for the time reporting, I cannot control it at a project level but it's controllable at an organization level. That's the only big challenge that I have."
"Time tracking, portfolio management reporting, and what-if analysis create visibility into project planning, resource capacity, and demand planning."
"PPM Pro is really great at the portfolio level like seeing what projects are in flight versus complete, or maybe not started. The portfolio level view is good for stage-gate management specifically."
"The status reporting is the most valuable feature as it's easy to use; it's simple for project managers to enter their information, and the reporting features are very flexible."
"It gave us a clarity of purpose. Everybody knows what they are doing and that they are all aligned: Managers know what employees are doing. Employees know what they are doing and the managers think they should be doing. That is the clarity which really helps in efficiency."
"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."
"The financial side of Procore Project Management is better."
"Other companies have been using it for years, and it is a very stable platform."
 

Cons

"Based on my experience, the financial management screens have gone a long way, but I think there's still some room for improvement in terms of how you model them and the different version controls."
"Integrations need improvement. We have the ability now with the FLEX licensing to take advantage of the different applications. But if you want them integrated there's a really large cost associated with that. The integration should be included in the cost per license. We shouldn't have to pay these really high fees to get the systems to talk together."
"I would like to see integration with third-party applications, like the JIRA, Microsoft Project, and financial applications."
"Additional Agile capabilities, including integration with the Agile development app, would be welcome features."
"I think PPM Pro is going to release a resource self-service admin which is going to duplicate the standard groups. I think that will help us a lot because right now a standard group has their own permission and we don't know what permission is getting out to the users. After the resource self-service admin will be in place, I think we will be in a much better position in terms of the formation profile."
"The initial setup was a little complex. There is so much to customize. It'd be good to have some templates out-of-the-box."
"I would like to schedule reports. I would like to be able to schedule a report and every Monday it sends that report to these people. That circumvents having to give them a license. It's just a way of saying "Okay, this is what's going on this week," and it just happens. I don't have to worry about it."
"One thing in particular I'd suggest is that we used the fast track service to implement PPM Pro. While it had a lot of value to it, people may be expecting a different experience. An experience where maybe an entourage of consultants come onsite to help you do the implementation, as opposed to working over the phone with just one resource. This might be an option to offer later down the road where there are complex implementations."
"It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
"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

"Our current license is from 2019 to 2022. So for that three-year subscription, it was $60,000 for the subscription, users, platform, and connections. Then there were some add-ons. Connecting to some of our other systems like HR for that period cost us around $12,000."
"The pricing for me is more about understanding your own needs in the company because it is one license for one person model. So, you have to really understand how many licenses you need and what may be the influx of your staff. The good thing about Daptiv is that we just need a quick telephone call to our customer success manager if we want to increase our licensing. It takes a day or two to do. So, we can upscale very quickly. We've never downscaled, but I'm guessing if we had to, we'd have to wait till the contract completes or renegotiate a different licensing cost. So, you definitely need to understand what different types of licenses provide from a functionality point of view, and then order 10% more than you need based on the influx of staff in the company. There are costs in addition to the standard licensing fees. We have the report functionality for which we pay separately for 10 hours per month."
"My advice is to pay attention to integration opportunities to reduce your licensing cost with Planview. There are additional costs for consulting services and advanced customer support."
"A collaboration of all their tools truly gets the biggest bang for the buck."
"We have their Flex plan."
"The cost was in line."
"Bulk volume discounts are a little better. Right now we have to buy in lots of 20 at $200 a license. That's a little steep. For example, with Service Now, I pay $48 a seat for a license."
"Because we have PPM Pro with Project place, we transitioned to the Flex model."
"The tool is cheap and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
