## About Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro is a project portfolio management (PPM) software solution that helps PMO teams centralize project portfolios, resources, financials, and reporting in one cloud-based system. It gives PMO leaders, project managers, and resource managers a shared system of record for managing project work end to end, replacing manual, spreadsheet-based tracking and fragmented reporting. Primary users include PMO directors, project managers, resource managers, and CIOs and CFOs who need portfolio-level visibility into project status, resource allocation, and financial performance. PPM Pro supports both traditional waterfall and hybrid project delivery methodologies and applies structured governance to work intake, financial tracking, and portfolio reporting. Main capabilities include: • Portfolio and project management with project templates, health scoring, and automatic status rollups across the full project inventory • Resource management through a centralized Resource Workbench that shows demand versus capacity, supports skills-based matching, and covers both employees and contractors • Financial management with budget, forecast, and actuals tracking at the task, project, and portfolio level, including capitalization (capex/opex) tracking • Structured work intake and request management, with configurable forms, approval workflows, and scoring models that route requests before work begins • Reporting and dashboards with configurable health indicators, calculated fields for custom metrics, and Predictive Portfolio Analysis and What-If Analysis tools for scenario planning PPM Pro connects with Planview AgilePlace and Planview ProjectPlace for organizations running hybrid delivery teams, and integrates with external tools including Jira, Azure DevOps, Cherwell, and Tasktop. Planview Anvi, Planview&#39;s AI capability, is being integrated into PPM Pro, including an Anvi Insights Widget for automated portfolio health analysis and an Anvi Chat interface currently available through early access.




## Planview PPM Pro Reviews
  ### 1. Fast Weekly Timesheets with Helpful Line-Item Autofill, with Easy Improvements Possible

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Arka R. | Scientist II, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 15, 2026

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

I need to submit timesheets weekly, and there is a line item autofill from previous entry function that is really good. It takes me hardly 5 minutes to fill out per week.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

If you don't fill out any hours for a certain line item, it is not automatically populated in the next timesheet. This is an issue if you have inconsistent hours allocated to certain projects.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The finance and program management teams need the data for hiring and staffing projects based on time spent and priority. PPM pro allows them to visualize this easily.

  ### 2. PPM Pro Review for IT Project Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cindy C. | Senior IT Project Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 14, 2022

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

The ease of setting up, maintaining, and tracking project activity.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

Not being able to easily compare actual and demand hours for a project or resource. It would be nice if that was more integrated throughout the product.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows us to evaluate, prioritize, plan, and track projects in our IT portfolio.

  ### 3. Complete package with expertise in implementing the solution to suit your needs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rohan S. | Business Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2021

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

I have been dabbling with several Project Management Solutions in my current organization and earlier ones; Planview came across as a complete package. One of the most crucial factors I understand now is the Consultant who works with you. Their expertise in Project Management and the in-depth knowledge of the Solution are essential for the implementation and successful adoption of the solution in the organization. While the feature list of solutions available in the market is easier to compare, such expertise cannot be gauged earlier on. The PPM Pro is a complete solution that can track a project, its status, and metrics from Initiation to Closure - Request capturing, stage gating, converting a request to project, monitoring and capturing lesson's learnt. The organization is active and hears its customers, often including features requests in their upcoming releases. The customer community is also very active and can help find answers to questions before reaching out to the Customer HelpDesk. Overall, very happy with the product.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

The Product feature list is vast, and sometimes you may have to seek help through a consultant to get something configured, which may cost money if you have exhausted your service hours.

**Recommendations to others considering Planview PPM Pro:**

Keep your objectives/goals clear, and Planview will support you with their expertise to implement best practices.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Like any large organization, our main objective was to bring visibility on projects (Requests, Ongoing, On hold, etc.) to all stakeholders. Such visibility helps the executive leadership team and any requestor plan the timelines around their projects better. With PPM Pro, we can publish the most up-to-date information about projects, the resource utilization/availability, budget to those who need to know in a straightforward, simple way.

  ### 4. Easy to use Portfolio and Project Management tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Igor S. | Director, PMO &amp; Information Systems, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2020

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

Ease of use, ease of onboarding, frequent software releases with new functionality, cloud platform SaaS very convenient, no IT support is required.
Greta product team involve customers in building product roadmaps, well moderated user community.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

Need to create and maintain interfaces to ERP, this require some development effort to link Open APIs.
Lack of team collaborative environment.

**Recommendations to others considering Planview PPM Pro:**

Highly recommended for enterprise level PMO for portfolio management and resource planning.
Should integrate with ERP financials, agile project management (such as JIRA) to achieve max value.
PPM Pro could be used as a main tool for enterprise, while  some departments and business units can continue use MS project / excel and other PPM tools

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Enterprise level project portfolio management, project/ task management, resource planning, time reporing

  ### 5. Minimalistic with depth!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2020

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

The interface is clean. For how much can possibly be managed, it's nice to navigate without being overwhelmed.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

It's a little too plain. Although the pro there is not having a display that's too busy, everything looks too similar, so it's not as quick to navigate as something that's more color coded or shaped differently.

**Recommendations to others considering Planview PPM Pro:**

Definitely utilize their support!

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Standardizing project management and tracking insights. Benefits have primarily been better visibility to stakeholders. Of course, in comparison to previous tools used that are stuck in, anything is better, but Planview PPM Pro really exceeds expectations. One of the best things about it is the customization. It's tricky to figure out the best approach, but once that's locked in, there is a tremendous amount of flexibility without too much complication. The interface is clean and easy to navigate. Support helps a great deal. So far, there haven't been any limitations with how much is tracked. There are also critical integrations with a number of third-party applications such as Salesforce, so Planview PPM Pro is certainly a worthy tool for project management, tracking, and reporting on those items. Lastly, the variety in which reports can be viewed is helpful. There is often more than one way to get the data you need.

  ### 6. The all in one program for project implementation.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emily J. | Account Director, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2020

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

This is an amazing project management software that creates and manages project timelines and organization. It enables us to easily track hours of project tasks and activities and time on deadlines. It greatly aligns projects and provides tools to execute each project day by day. It is easily accessible from anywhere. It is cloud-based platform, so data is being saved and secured on cloud. Their support is very helpful.  It has incredible tools for portfolio and asset management. It always focuses on project improvement. It provides the ability to customize the request workflow from submission to decision. It increases developer’s productivity.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

The details of projects, resources are sometimes problematic to manage. It takes too long the user interface should be more clearly designed to make it better for project management. The reporting engine needs proper training for report writers. It opens new window for everything which is quite confusing.  It is not that much intuitive; it needs a lot of understanding of how it works in first time. It takes time while updating project tasks.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This platform helped us a lot in managing our project for our company developers as it was way harder for them to manage multiple projects with their deadlines so we implemented this tool for our company and it helped us a lot in improving projects, technologies and developers productivity. It handled our organization really well; project managers are now designing project plans through it and all the other staffs record their time.

  ### 7. Planview is a cloud based solution that prioritizes and manages day to day project implementations.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dayton B. | Senior Subsea Intervention Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 28, 2020

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

Planview PPM Pro is a network based tenable end-to-end resolution that delivers illumination for managing the projects and portfolios. It helps keeping records of project time tracking by time-sheet means. It manages time and resources of your work in a specialized manner.  Planview project and portfolio management pro tool is immense for looking at a variety of financial views and operating expenses at diverse levels from endeavor to scheme. It provides valuable approaching and comprehensive visibility to novel projects. The portal is much straightforward and user friendly. Also it provides a free demo tape to have a look on all the accessible features for beginners. You can tailor your project lists as well.  It makes cooperation and collaboration much easy and enables use of dashboards.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

The main negative feature seen in Planview PPM pro includes not those reasonable scheduling processes. Also its interface is a little tricky to plot a course for pioneers with partial functionality. The developing reports feature is much time taking. The pin feature does not work every time. If you are new to use this application, you have to spend some time to learn the basics as well. The Gantt chart view cuts off the description of projects.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Planview PPM pro is all for one program and because of its ease of use and setup is deeply appreciated. It is loved by many users as it contains all the major elements required to manage their portfolios completely and for milestone tracking. It shows good reporting capabilities as well and works well with multiple users.

  ### 8. Efficient tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2018

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

Really easy to use interface. Able to assign tasks to project stakeholders and much better format to track in than a spreadsheet.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

Not much room for customization beyond the basics.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helps with time tracking to better understand and plan for our business needs.

  ### 9. Excellent PMO at a great price point

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Forrest S. | Principal Consultant, Staffing and Recruiting, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2016

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

Innotas provides us with the ability to manage our complete portfolio of projects using a cloud-based solution, integrating in our budgeting and actuals for projects with the interface for IT personnel to quickly enter in their hours for the week.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

It takes a decent amount of time to master the way estimated, budgeted and actual costs are calculated.  It all makes sense once you figure it out, but you really have to dig in to get to that point.

**Recommendations to others considering Planview PPM Pro:**

Don't get caught up in the dashboards at first.  Concentrate on the core data related to your key PMO processes.  Once you have a solid portfolio of project data in the system, the flashier stuff will follow.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were trying to mature our project management processes and standardize the approach to project initiation and financial management.  We have definitely taken advantage of the Innotas platform to establish a project initiation workflow and also use the tool to create dashboards for our monthly meetings to review budgets and costs with the executive team.

  ### 10. Innotas: Great Value for Portfolio Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lise L. | Senior Program Manager, Airlines/Aviation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2016

**What do you like best about Planview PPM Pro?**

Innotas is easy to use and provides all the basics (and more) for managing a portfolio of projects.  The reporting feature does not require a specific skill set (i.e. Crystal) to run.  Recently Innotas has implemented new features that allows Administrators to create different types of projects (I.e. project with various data fields) which has allowed for the solution to be extended at an entreprise level.

**What do you dislike about Planview PPM Pro?**

I would like to see a "read only" license be available that would be free.

**What problems is Planview PPM Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before Innotas we had over 60 projects that were not captured in a single repository.  Creating a single report for project status was painful and time consuming and often done in Excel, over email.  With having all our projects in Innotas, we were able to introduce reporting guidelines and  schedule and creating a consolidated view which highlights the highest risks project is extremely quick and easy.
