Programme Excellence
Execview as a company proved to be highly responsive to the needs of the customer and continually looked to innovate and improve its product to enhance the end-user experience. It offers all of the functionality required to govern, manage and deliver complex portfolios of projects, in a highly efficient and user friendly manner.
PROSExecview provided a single source of the truth for project reporting and dispensed with outmoded Excel/PowerPoint templates. Used properly this is a go-to tool which helps the user manage their programme/project on a daily basis. The ability to structure workflow supported and reinforced the company's delivery governance, and the ability to roll-up risks and project reporting proved invaluable.
CONSNo major dislikes/issues. The look and feel of the Execview UI was ok; however, this could be improved. I understand that this point is actively being addressed by the Execview team. Would have been good to have a dedicated App for quickly accessing project status.
Reasons for switching to Execview
Extend access to all the team and improve efficiency, and look and feel, of project reporting across the business.
Vendor Response
Jason, thank you for the review. Our users often refer to us as The Single source of Truth. Our UI is currently being updated and is due to be rolled out in July. Hope you like it. Thanks for taking the time to review.

A full featured scalable P3M reporting suite
Having implemented enterprise applications of very large vendors (often USA based), working with a smaller UK focused organisation was a delight. Responses were prompt and pertinent and we often were able to have a dialogue directly with the senior architect which had excellent outcomes.
PROSEase of learning the basics. PM’s trained and proficient within 3 hours. Productivity gains for PMs and PMO. Incredible improvements in transparency. Powerful drill down reporting for senior management. Instant corporate roll-up. Powerful exception reporting. First class comprehensive risk management module. Very popular within the P3M community. Flexibility in development corporate metrics. Security model supported segregation by business unit. Ability to configure Concise Executive dashboards with real time data.
CONSAt the time of implementation, the method to dashboards replication did not use a full inheritance model. So replication across our 100+ accounts required more effort than anticipated. The part of the application has since been enhanced.
Reason for choosing Execview
Primarily for three reasons:- 1 - ease of use (a previous product deployment had failed due to usability issues in 2015) 2 - value for money 3 - the security model matched our requirements (role based access for each of our client accounts)
Vendor Response
Thank you for this review, we particularly like the ref to the first class risk management module. We recognised the dashboard replication issue and, as you say, amended this. Thanks for taking the time to review.

Honest Review
When users come with requests majority of the time EV is limiting in the options.
PROSQuick and easy set up & use for smaller portfolios
CONS1. Clunky, old fashioned UI and UX (e.g. no drag and drop function) 2. Little flexibility available functions, rigid 3. Too simple and slow for large portfolios 4. Little integrating with 3rd party solutions
Reason for choosing Execview
I was not involved during the procurement. I have been involved in a process moving away from EV to another software.
Vendor Response
Hi Arkadiy, thank you for taking the time to review for us. The new UI is going to be rolled out during July and the feedback from users is looking great. Thanks for acknowledging the Customer Support, we pride ourselves on Team Collaboration with our partner clients. Training is a good option for exploring further functionality, let's set up a complimentary session for you and your team. Thanks again for your time.

Execview Has Been A Gamechanger
Can't fault the level of support throughout the entire process, and the onboarding and training was brilliant.
PROSVisually engaging and easy to use. As a Graphic Designer this is of particular importance to me. I can access the information I need rapidly without having to hunt through reams and reams of paper.
CONSFor us no, it does everything we need and an awful lot more besides. We can see the potential to "grow in" to the product as we grow.
Reasons for switching to Execview
The other systems we looked at didn't perform well in the areas most important to us. It was also essential our data remained in the UK. We can now guarantee that to our customers many of whom are within the public sector.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review it is always great to receive feedback from our end users. We are especially grateful for the specific reference to support and onboard training. This is an area of great importance to us and we recognise the value of human to human support. This has been especially important over the last couple of years where peoples movement has been restricted. Also we are pleased to hear our solution has resolved several pain points for you. A paperless office is definitely something to strive for and by adopting an increased digitised process we can help you achieve this. Thank you again for your review, we really appreciate you taking the time tell us about your experience.

Excellent customer service team with regular contacts with their clients to build partnerships and plan together for the future.
PROSEase of use and being able to customise the product to match the client's lifecycle.
CONSThere are some things that could be added which we are currently discussing with Execview such as lessons learned functionality. Also improving usage of measures and speed of workflow.
Reason for choosing Execview
We have seen Execview being used by one of our clients and we were impressed with the reporting as well as ease of use. Also the fact that it is hosted in the UK was a key decision point for our Public Sector accounts.
