We performed a comparison between OpenText Project and portfolio Management and Trello based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Project Portfolio Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"Scenario comparison is the feature most valuable to us and the reason why we decided to choose HPE PPM over other portfolio management products."
"Resource management: The resource management module is very complete and covers most of the time all needs of customers."
"There are so many different pieces of functionality, and we use almost every single piece from deployment to demand, project, resource, and time management."
"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."
"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."
"Micro Focus Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) has a very strong workflow engine."
"The data provided by PPM is trusted and is available almost immediately; without trusted data there is very less scope of any tool to be successful."
"Kanban is the best feature of the tool."
"The solution is very user-friendly, where you have everything you need."
"I like how user-friendly, visual, and intuitive it is. It doesn't take a lot of time to figure out how to make it work for you."
"Trello is quite easy to learn. The features that are available in the current version are enough to do your basic documentation and management."
"The user interface is great. I find it very easy to create cards."
"Another feature that impressed me is the clear Kanban board, as it provides a clear view of to-to tasks, assuring the team not to forget anything."
"I appreciate the ease of creating boards and the flexibility it offers."
"Our teams deployed Trello to gain a comprehensive overview of pre-sales activity, monitor project progress, create detailed task lists, and track action items - all critical components for streamlining our organization's operations."
"I was not involved in the initial setup. I know that the project involved a lot of consulting that took a long time."
"The user interface is very, very old and is missing some functions, such as, for example, re-do, follow, and share functions. The UI is not good."
"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 solution can sometimes be a little inflexible and a bit caustic."
"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."
"User interface continues to be poor. The product does not have a similar view in the different modules, e.g., staffing vs financial management, it looks like you are working with a different product and it is not easy to use or intuitive."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
"I would also like to see improvement in PPM's reporting and alerts. PPM has reporting capabilities, including HTML reports and portlets. But a majority of clients will build their own reporting platforms, or they will use external reporting platforms like Tableau and QlikView."
"Many more categories could be enabled."
"Reporting features could be improved."
"If there are pre-done templates or suggested templates for various fields, they would be helpful for me as a coach."
"Trello was available as a standalone version that does not allow you to collaborate with other people."
"There aren't as many tracking tools."
"Sometimes, I find it challenging to manage the checklists."
"Trello does not provide you with as many functionalities as Jira and various third-party integrations provided by these different platforms."
"Trello was a little complicated initially because we didn't know how to use it, create a product backlog, or define the work items."
