"Lack of out of the box basic functionality."
1.5/5
What do you like best about Planview AdaptiveWork?

The tool is very customizable, and most people with little coding experience will be able to build custom workflows and processes. The views are easily changed with no coding needed, and the hybrid Jira board views are excellent for scum-style projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planview AdaptiveWork?

Almost nothing works well out of the box; many processes are completed outside of the tool and then entered into the tool. The support for the product is lacking; with Clarizen being bought by Plainview, there are different growing pains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Why we changed from Clarizen (Planview Adaptive Work) to Smartsheet"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Planview AdaptiveWork?

I really like the dashboards and the system to register the hours spent in tasks, inside each project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planview AdaptiveWork?

The problem with Clarizen (Planview AdaptiveWork) is the price, and it is also not so easy to configure. There is not much material to learn how to use Clarizen, so we had to learn by ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You have to understand what it is you need and want, which is much harder than it sounds. Very iterative process. It is a complex beast, you really need someone to be an expert in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clarizen One user since 2016"
4/5
What do you like best about Planview AdaptiveWork?

I really enjoy that Clarizen One is very customizable. Another great benefit is that our Customer Success Manager, Andrzej Lechowicz, is phenomenal and always attentive no matter how busy he is. Dashboards and reports are pretty easy to create especially if you are someone in IT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planview AdaptiveWork?

One of the disadvantages at this time of the product is that it is not very friendly for the agile methodology. In order to get it to report out in a way to eliminate double-entry in other systems such as Azure DevOps or Jira, you need 3rd party integrations. We are working through figuring out how to best continue to utilize Clarizen One instead of a new product. We've invested a lot in Clarizen and prefer to stay with their solutions.

It is also resource intensive if your project plans are detailed. It can lock up or slow to a crawl. I believe Clarizen is working on this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clarizen is a great project management tool with plenty of useful features. It takes a little to of getting used to but it makes tracking projects and tasks very easy after that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's not much to dislike about Clarizen. The initial learning curve of using the tool is quite steep as it's packed with features but it's all worth it after wrapping your head around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
