Changepoint PPM has revolutionized my resource management
Overall I am very happy with the product. It only took half an hour training. It is user friendly and powerful.
PROSThe Team Manager function has helped me soooo much in planning my resourcing. It has particularly helped my team with mental wellness as now I'm not overbooking them. Timesheets have been very useful as well.
CONSIt can be slow sometimes, particularly the area where you can forecast resource usage across all your projects. I also think it needs more coloring of over or under allocation.

Daptive User review
Overall I believe that we have had a positive experience with the platform. We only utilize the app for project management at this time, but I believe that we could grow with the platform and add more services as necessary.
PROSI really appreciate the ability to oversee multiple resources and project plans all within one easy to use system.
CONSI wish that it would integrate with MS Teams - or had better collaboration capabilities.
Reasons for switching to Planview Daptiv
MS Project (at the time) was a very unwieldy product to use. We needed something that could generate reports an and more of a one stop shop for PM's and the management team.

New user to daptiv
The main issue I had before using daptiv was to report numbers and progress you upper management. Daptiv provides the right tools to overcome this.
PROSIt’s a very user friendly tool and running reports is very easy to do. I have been using daptiv for just over 6 months and became an administrator in the last 2 months and I am able to upload new projects and edit with ease. I would highly recommend using daptiv for reporting to upper management and finance.
CONSThere isn’t anything I can think of to say the software does exactly what I need it to do.

Plenty of features, but with a learning curve
We could develop a method to measure portfolio alignment by registering the expected benefit of the projects / portfolio, considering the expected end date of any (using the gant , scheduling tool) which allows to understand cash flows by month, portfolio. Other software only make a SUM ALL BENEFITS feature which is un-realistic and can dangerously bias decision making.
PROS- It is built with foundations related to standard concepts of project management (PMI) tasks, profile, change management, issues, risks, capacity management, - Allows customization in almost all parts of the system - Has standard reports for analyze all parts of project - Cognos reporting is really powerful - User can request functionalities in an open board, everyone can see, vote and request
CONS- Cognos reporting has a steep learning curve if you don't know SQL - Recognition of geography of projects is not standard / native (if you need reports based on that concept) - Portfolio management although powerful still needs ease of use (expect a big upgrade on this on 2020) - It is licenced through user based and not seat based
Reason for choosing Planview Daptiv
Capability to customize and report
Vendor Response
Thanks for the feedback! We are in the middle of rolling out our new embedded analytics platform right now that is significantly more powerful and intuitive.

It will work great even without a firm control
If you want to stay on track and be aware of modern tendencies of project management techniques, for instance, Daptiv PPM is definitely a worthy solution to draw your attention to, even though this is not a sample of programs available for all the types of users.
PROSThe accurateness of results we get from Daptiv is what makes us stay with this solution so far. It is really incredible that we are able to forecast how our ideas and program’s abilities will so-called cooperate and create. What is more, flows of data with the ability of operation in the real-time mode are another powerful feature of Daptiv. All in all, the program does not require constant unfaltering control from our employees, and this allows them to distribute their efforts and powers more effectively. The main reason why we prefer Daptiv PPM is the program’s abilities for making projects and adding sense and individuality to them. We must say that a major part of Daptiv’s productivity lays in its ease of use and a customizable interface at a high level.
CONSWe think one of the main drawbacks of the service is its price. Frankly speaking, Daptiv PPM is rather a solution for big- or medium-sized businesses. Even though such a price may be explained by the high quality of the service (which is true to life), but we believe the program should be adapted and modernized a bit to justify the investments needed. Well, concerning problems with functionality or productivity, we have nothing important to share.

Bang for your buck
The ability to customize and configure data output through the use of custom fields and views, dynamic apps, and reporting provides holistic visibility to crucial performance data that can be as simple as a snapshot or as complex and detailed as an executive dashboard report.
PROSDaptiv is a highly configurable, feature-rich PPM software that provides excellent visibility to project, program, and portfolio status. It allows you to manage a multitude of simple or complex projects and programs through a single user interface making tracking, analysis, forecasting, and planning a breeze. The ability to customize data output is only limited to the boundaries of your imagination.
CONSThe downside of Daptiv is the frequency that support cases need to be submitted due to unexpected errors or known issues with the software that are yet to be resolved. Generally, you have to find a workaround until the issue is resolved. The software is not cheap and although most support cases are resolved fairly quickly (within a day or two) reoccurring or unresolved issues make the price much harder to swallow.
Reason for choosing Planview Daptiv
Changepoint PPM (Daptiv) was our choice of PPM software because it was the most robust and comprehensive software on the market with limitless possibilities for time tracking and data output.

Flexible and Adaptable PPM Solution
The most important problem that Daptiv solve was visibility to the portfolio. We could have a real status in a consolidate/unique place All document are related with task schedule as well as the issue management. Deep analysis to the availability of the resource poll
PROSIts very easy to use as well very flexible to customize, from project fields, dynamics apps and very customizable reports, can track all the project request with a specific approval policy. You can create a project from a template based on best practices, can customize different kind of web form.
CONSThe layout about how you create a project, there should be a way to group or have a matrix to type a different kind or options. You cannot manage micro-management task (task duration less than one day related with a constraint type finish to start.

PPMO Helpful
Overall, working with Daptiv PPM has helped us in several areas: recognizing resource constraints and where we need to prioritize, and also data governance - recognizing how we can clean up our data.
PROSThe Resource Allocation feature is the most likeable feature on this. I think that it helps us manage our resources and really look at the organization's project capacity. Where we need to explore for future development.
CONSThe inability to move around views/fields in the workspaces is difficult. I think that we have the ability to customize a lot of different areas, but that is one where I wish it was more available to customize. Also would really like to integrate more with Power BI.

Effective and flexible solution to PPM
The breadth of the functionality - intake management, portfolio management, financial, timekeeping, and resource management. It is easy to adapt and is flexible. There is also the ability to implement in phases or "big bang" depending on organizational needs.
CONSThe reporting tool was difficult to learn and difficult to make appealing reports. Needed a great deal of time and expertise. (They are addressing this with new ChangePoint Analytics.)
