Projectplace Reviews in January 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Best for complicated projects

What do you like best? It's incredibly visual and well-designed. It's user-friendly and fairly intuitive. It's easy to see who is doing what, and I love the graphics. What do you dislike? Not super into conversations - prefer G chat. It also seems like it would be the best fit for large consulting or analytics groups. Those with smaller/easier projects may not use all the features. I'll admit I'm not entirely sure how to make the best use of it right now. Recommendations to ...

A one-stop for coordination and collaboration

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? Projectplace provides a one stop shop for Kanban, Gantt, file sharing, comments, as well as a tight integration with Planview. What aspects are problematic or could work better? I had some problems with very large Excel documents not coming through properly. And having the Gantt view only available on the highest paywall is a bit of a money-grab, though only for non-corporate users. At the moment, we could not expand the use of ...

What It Does, It Does Well

What do you like best? One stop shopping for Kanban, Gantt, File Sharing, Comments, tight integration with Planview (owner of Projectplace). This was a quantum leap above the SharePoint lists and Excel project plans we were going to use before being introduced to this. What do you dislike? Had some problems with very large Excel documents (13mb) not coming through properly. Putting the Gantt view behind the highest paywall is a bit of a blatant money-grab, but that would only ...

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

Wholistic view but cluttered

What do you like best? I like that you can see across teams, and get a high level visual of what is going on, timelines, etc. I also like that you can see a summary of how many projects are in the pipeline, what is next , etc. Lastly, I like that you can easily drag products from one category to another - such as "currently working on" to "finished". What do you dislike? In general, I find the UI to be very cluttered. It's not super easy to navigate or update, and not very ...
