"The Gold Standard in Project Management"
What do you like best about PMI?

I use PMI for certification in project management, and their literature, resources, and hands-on tools and templates are incredibly useful for our PMO. PMI helps us ensure standards are in place across all PMs in our organization, leading to project management synergy, and has eliminated issues we faced with a less structured PM practice in the past. Their PMP certification is something we value highly, as it ensures project managers can share effective practices within the organization. The literature and tools available through PMI membership are regular staples in our organization. PMI provides the gold standard for project management, and their library of templates like risk registers, RACI charts, and GANTT tools are particularly impactful.

"PMI= No good"
What do you like best about PMI?

I don't like it.

For some reason this is what major companies and looking at now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PMI?

Most questions I ran across on the exam had been scenario questions. With a " What is the best answer that we think it should be"

Several of the questions also were missing important details that would make a major impact on the answer.

You can retest, but its at 275$ a pop.

In total 1.5k spent and month of study so far with PMI, and nothing to show for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Customer Support is great but I have suggestions."
What do you like best about PMI?

You have a leg up against other candidates when it comes to applying for a job or asking for a raise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PMI?

Please for gosh sakes give your liscencees more than 1 day notice that they need to renew. I had a panic attack when I read this. When I called to complain, I was told that the PMI does give 1 year for licensees to pay the fee. It would have been good if the automated system told me!!!!!

"Taking away progress on courses because they are moving to a new platform"
Describe the project or task PMI helped with:

I am in the process of completing a Project Management Basics course that's required for the CAPM certification exam. It's self guided and while the course itself is fine, PMI sent out an email saying that they are changing platforms and that the entire course would need to be completed within 30 days or all current progress would be lost.

It's extremely frustrating to pay $400 for a course that they've suddenly now put a timestamp on.

I reached out to customer support, which was less than helpful and just reiterated the same warning.

I guess now I will have to rush through the remainder of the course as it is my only option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PMI?

The course material and learning platforms are designed well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Worst Customer Support System Ever"
Describe the project or task PMI helped with:

We've been requesting a quote for funding for over two weeks. First we were told we'd receive it within 2-3 days. Never arrived. Then we were told it's been prioritized and we'd get it within 24-hours. Then they said we had to complete an application first....only to complete an application you have to have sat a class. Since our request for a quote is to pay for the class, we obviously haven't sat a class yet. SO, since they've created a system that has a giant barrier, we may miss out on Covid relief funding that would have upskilled or organization during a lockdown. The worst is just the sheer inability to get any support or action from anyone that knows what they are doing and can make a decision. This is what happens, of course, when you completely outsource your customer support and you don't think through all user scenarios on your website. Like...what company doesn't allow someone to pay their bill prior to even qualifying for the exam. Don't you want the money in hand??? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PMI?

Haven't found it yet. Still looking and hoping for the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Working Title"
Describe the project or task PMI helped with:

I was looking for an inventory control process template, for implementation I was working on. I was not able to find exactly what I was looking for, however, I was able to take pieces of a couple of differrent templates and get what I needed. I have to be honest it is not the most user-friendly site when trying to search for tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PMI?

one please to search versus have to go to ten different sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
