We performed a comparison between monday.com and OpenText Project and portfolio Management 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."From the user's perspective, and even for me as an implementation consultant, one of the most valuable features is the integration of different platforms with monday.com. In addition to that, the real-time reporting from the dashboards is also valuable, as is the ability to customize it."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"We are a lot more organized, and have transparency throughout key areas of our business thanks to this solution."
"We use also integration with Jira, to see the updates so the CSM team can see the update from Jira."
"We have many different automations set up for different use cases."
"My Work helps us really, truly see what is on our plate for a given day in a task list form - we did not have this capability before."
"Being able to add comments to line items makes it easier to provide updates on tasks and flag if there are delays or issues in completing something."
"The scalability is unlimited."
"I like the automated calculations, especially on the resource side. When project managers enter their resource requirements into their staffing profiles, they are automatically translated into labor forecast calculations. PPM automates a significant portion of the forecast calculations. Timesheets are also built-in. We automatically process time sheets and bill them accordingly."
"Micro Focus PPM is flexible and easy to use. It's simple to customize and configure workflows."
"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."
"Has a powerful workflow engine that allows creation of workflow complexities and processes."
"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."
"There are so many different pieces of functionality, and we use almost every single piece from deployment to demand, project, resource, and time management."
"It is very important that the platform gives us a single place where we can measure progress toward goals, as we have weekly meetings with the CTO. We present these consolidated overviews and dashboards to him so that he has an overview of all the projects and can see the status of all the problems that we have and we are working on."
"The product can be improved by allowing for some sort of autonomous deadline creation."
"Subitems could be reworked a little so that they’re more helpful."
"The docs feature seems like it could be a little more user-friendly."
"Monday.com has tons of features and capabilities. However, you’ll need to upgrade your plan to actually benefit the most from these tools."
"Timetracking should be a little more powerful."
"Automation is often glitchy for us. Maybe we have too many automations set up?"
"The feature which needs more improvement or development is the dashboard."
"Perhaps a nice Outlook plugin to copy tasks from Outlook would be beneficial. The same could work on Gmail."
"Currently, HPE PPM does not allow “Project” approval, but only simple “Demand Request” approval (mobility)."
"Reporting; need to be able to provide fancy reporting out of PPM, way it is done in OBIEE etc."
"I was not involved in the initial setup. I know that the project involved a lot of consulting that took a long time."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"They can make its UI better. Currently, the UI is a bit clunky."
