"Great tool to really enable 360 degree visibility into your project portfolio"
5/5
What do you like best about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

PPM has a very strong and flexible workflow engine that could be used to run all kinds of IT service processes apart from doing a great job in project and portfolio management. Very easy to use with little effort and quick win implementations.

HP PPM integrates easily with other tools you might have in your landscape (for example tools for test management: HP ALM/QC or the HP Service Manager).

HP PPM has a very scalable architecture able to support more than 1000 users easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

Nothing that I really dislike. But on my wishlist I have quicker official support for current browser versions and the replacement of the Java configuration applet with a web interface (at least for the functions that are often used by administrators like user administration).

"HP PPM goes beyond Project and Portfolio Management"
5/5
What do you like best about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

HP PPM is a very strong Project and Portfolio Management tool that is proprietary but runs on open source programming standards meaning there is less 'vendor lockin' resulting in lower support and development costs compared to competing products like CA Clarity PPM (overly proprietary leveraging proprietary programming standards). Demand Management over HP PPM gives the product the flexibility to build and accomodate robust, rapidly tailored, client centric processes over a centralized platform that support parallel project management extensions, as well as Change and Release Management for complex Enterprise applications. It is the only HP software product that I consider 'BYOP' enabled (Build your own process - my own acronym) and over the last 12 years I have worked with numerous clients that have transformed the nature of what the application does for them.

What do you dislike about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

I feel the foundation license cost is high for instances with > 25 users. This limits, doesn't promote, adoption in a competitive market. I also feel that HP needs to take on more specialized vendors as opposed to vendors that have to look up 'HP PPM' on the Web when they receive an client inquiry. For example, I recently told a HP vendor that a potential client would like to buy HP PPM for Deployment Management of Oracle E-business Suite and they felt other HP products we're better suited for the task at hand ?? There is also a therefore a major disconnect between sales and delivery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5
What do you like best about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

Our cloud-implementation of HP PPM is running a 99.99 availability which is crucial for our business. That alongside the options for tailoring the setup to fit our needs, makes it on of the very top applications in our stack. Kudos! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

The interface could be a bit more up-to-date and responsive. For example a simple thing like scaling a portlet by dragging the mouse, would be nice. And of course I would like it if screens changed the second I made som input. Just 1 or 2 seconds of hang time, gets noticed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

I evaluated and ran a trial of this software a few years ago and it basically was a good tool for large IT shops that need to keep track of all their projects in one central repository. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Project and Portfolio Management (PPM)?

It was quite pricey and a little cumbersome to use. Your IT shop needs to be set up a certain way for it to really be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
