We performed a comparison between Planview ProjectPlace and Trello based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Project Management Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Right from the initial steps, we found this product easy to use."
"Projectplace has excellent collaboration features, including some nice kanban boards. We use DocuSign, and Planview just integrated it into Projectplace, so that was helpful. And I like the fact that it links to Enterprise One, the other Planview tool that we use to manage our capital portfolio."
"The workspace ease, navigation, and portfolios are the most valuable aspects of this solution. I just got access to the portfolios from my upper management, so I'm able to look at our specific SRE portfolio to see what's a priority, look at how many hours we've tracked, and things like that. I'm not so much included in the budgeting but it's important to see what projects are higher priority and so forth."
"I love the collaborative nature just from my role to help. I'm a strategist. I help manage those large strategic projects. Implementation is one significant piece of my role, but I love the collaboration that can exist within the tool."
"It is a complete solution. It is very useful for the management of our internal processes."
"The most useful features of Planview are its integration with resource management and the ability to commit and reserve various resources."
"It simplifies the management of our day-to-day work and brings all our processes into a single place where we can plan our activities, monitor them, and take any actions accordingly."
"Clarizen's slide publisher is one of my favorite features."
"We found that the solution was available on multiple devices, has a great user experience, is simple to use, and it is available on multiple channels."
"There is a huge community to help us with the issues we face while using the product."
"It offers a very solid service alongside its innovative features and capabilities."
"I think task management, prioritization, rankings, and collaboration features are useful."
"I like the user interface's graphics and the general features and functionalities."
"Trello's user interface is really good, making it easy for us to maintain and monitor."
"Trello is quite easy to learn. The features that are available in the current version are enough to do your basic documentation and management."
"Kanban is the best feature of the tool."
"Planview is a resource management and project management system. Projectplace allows you to create boards and associate some of Planview's work breakdown structure as a top-level tree under which you can place cards, but there are many limitations because when you make a change in Planview, it is reflected in Projectplace. However, except for a few specific things, changes made in Projectplace are not ported back to Planview. At this point, they're two completely different products. The flaw is that there is very little integration between the two."
"It is not easy. The deployment of the application and its functionalities are not easy. It is a complex process to create accounts, names, and catalogs."
"It needs some improvement in the project planning reports, ad hoc reports, and some big file transfers are a challenge. If you were going to transfer some 10 MB or 12 MB document with your team members, then it might have some problems in uploading and sharing those files. The overall dashboard view needs some advancement in its visualizations and uploading a large file size is a challenge."
"We'd like to see a heartier connection between Projectplace and Enterprise One. We know that's on their roadmap, but they haven't gotten there yet. Planview could also make better use of Projectplace's template capability."
"If the mobile app were improved to show more information then it would be good."
"In terms of what could be improved in Planview Projectplace, it would depend on the purpose, because if you talk about resource planning, from my perspective, it's not the best tool. It would also depend on the company itself, for example, I've been working with another company and Planview Projectplace was needed more for workload and resource planning purposes, and I don't think the solution covered those purposes well. Its resource planning and workload functions need improvement."
"The reporting end of it needs improvement. There should be more reporting, more data at your fingertips. It should be easier and a little more user-friendly. I know there is some there, but it's just how do you get more meat on the bones, if you will, of what's available."
"They should also improve the interface. There are other competitors like Microsoft Project for the web, Wrike, Team Gantt who have a way better, modern user interface."
"It is not a scalable product."
"It would be great if there was a tour for new users to explain how this solution works. Using this solution for the first time can feel complicated."
"Trello does not provide you with as many functionalities as Jira and various third-party integrations provided by these different platforms."
"In the card area, you should not be able to modify so easily what is already written, as this can cause loss of information."
"Pricing can be improved."
"We don't really have any automated features. If they had more automated options, that would be helpful."
"The dashboards and flexibility to adjust the timeline view for each task are areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"Trello has become complex over the years."
