## About Planview ProjectAdvantage
Planview® ProjectAdvantage (formerly Sciforma Vantage) is a project portfolio management (PPM) software solution that helps PMOs and delivery leaders plan, govern, and execute projects across the full lifecycle of portfolio management. The platform supports idea and demand intake, portfolio planning, project scheduling, resource management, team collaboration, financial tracking, and time capture within a single unified environment. ProjectAdvantage provides organizations with a structured system to manage large portfolios of concurrent initiatives while maintaining visibility into project progress, resource capacity, risks, and financial performance. By centralizing project data and standardizing delivery processes, teams can prioritize the right work, coordinate execution across projects, and deliver initiatives more predictably. The platform is designed to support organizations at different levels of PMO maturity. Smaller or developing PMOs can begin with core project planning and scheduling capabilities, while more mature organizations can leverage advanced portfolio governance, stage-gate workflows, and resource capacity planning to manage complex project portfolios at scale. Key features and capabilities include: • Idea and demand management with dynamic business case scoring, risk and benefit visualization, and budget-driven ranking tools that help teams evaluate and prioritize incoming project requests before resources are committed. • Portfolio planning and simulation including pipeline dashboards, portfolio health views, and scenario modeling capabilities that allow PMO leaders to evaluate trade-offs across competing projects, funding constraints, and resource availability. • Gantt-based project scheduling with support for critical path management, milestone tracking, work package structuring, cost and budget monitoring, and detailed project timeline control. • Resource management and capacity planning tools that provide visibility into role-based availability, team allocation across active and planned projects, and workload distribution to help organizations align delivery capacity with portfolio priorities. • Integrated time tracking that captures actual effort at the task level and feeds logged hours directly into financial tracking, project forecasting, and resource capacity planning. • AI-powered project intelligence that helps accelerate project planning and execution by suggesting deliverables during project initialization, identifying potential project risks based on project data, recommending updates to risk criticality as projects evolve, and enabling natural-language time entry directly from collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams to reduce administrative overhead. ProjectAdvantage enables organizations to improve delivery predictability, optimize resource utilization, and execute complex project portfolios with greater visibility, governance, and control.

  ### 1. New User

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 11, 2017

**What do you like best about Planview ProjectAdvantage?**

Very little.  I have been able to make very minor configurations and we limp along.

**What do you dislike about Planview ProjectAdvantage?**

The Java tool is very hard to configure.  It is not intuitive.  There are no user manuals.  The search system for the Knowledge Base is frustrating and a waste of time.  v7.0 is a vast improvement from v5.0 but compared to other tools in the market (HP, MS Server, Clarity) its not even in the same league.  Top 10 dislikes:  Scheduler, restricted to assigning resources to tasks instead of projects, system is total effort based instead of planned vs. actuals, un-editable dashboards, working vs. published, token system....

**Recommendations to others considering Planview ProjectAdvantage:**

Not recommended

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

We primarily use Sciforma for Resource Management.  We do not use the RAM work space.  We have managed to get our resources allocated and use the Resource Allocation report.  We use the time reporting extension.
