Considered Both Products
monday.com
Chose monday.com
It's been a while since trying Asana, so it's hard to say. I think they are very similar from what I remember, but maybe monday.com has more reporting and customization possibilities?
Chose monday.com
monday.com offer much of the standard tools and seems to be ever evolving. They seem to take feedback and constantly upgrade the tools. If all the tools are there, the differentiating factor might be the cost, any integrations you may need, and the visual "chemistry". To me, …
Chose monday.com
We chose to move from Zoho to monday.com when our company started growing exponentially. Overall, our team was thankful for the change because we were growing at far to fast of a speed for Zoho's tools to keep up with us. monday.com is a better, beefier platform with far better …
Chose monday.com
We decided to go with monday.com because they offered a free tier for nonprofits and because they are easier to use and offered additional features that we could not find on the other choices. Hands down, there was no better choice for us than monday.com.
Chose monday.com
When I arrived at my org, I was initially disappointed to hear that we used something other than Asana for project management. Fast forward just a few months, and I became a complete monday.com convert. While its organization is similar to Asana's, it's user interface, …
Chose monday.com
We use Jira, Confluence, Miro and the full Salesforce stack and it's very reliable as are the other softwares.
Chose monday.com
I would say this is one of my least favorite applications. I don't find it super user friendly due to the extreme amounts of customization. It feels like my information is in there somewhere, but I can never find it easily. I think that it looks a lot prettier than asana which …
Chose monday.com
monday.com seems to solve the issues and concerns for our marketing and graphics needs. I personally use Asana for my projects and tracking purposes and monday.com for my interations with Marketing and their needs.
Chose monday.com
monday.com is much easier to use and offers all the tools of google suite in one spot for task management. I use gsuite services still but in an entirely different way. If there is something that needs to be shared with the team or is important that I will need to refer back to …
Chose monday.com
Monday.com is the broadest scope work management software I have used. Its interface is basic and takes some getting used to, but the programming options are highly advanced and extremely effective.
Chose monday.com
I also use the other selected. But I prefer monday.com because it is more clear (visually and intuitively), and also because I have been using it for longer than the others. However, there is the price factor that must be taken into consideration
Chose monday.com
Monday.com is far more intuitive than Salesforce with it's automation features, lists are better and customizable and it makes things easier for everyone on the team.

Salesforces is a great CRM system but I feel as though it falls short as a collaborative project management …
Chose monday.com
As a developer, I have utilized the mentioned apps to integrate processes for clients, and I have found monday.com to be superior due to its abundance of features compared to others. Choosing monday.com provides enough capabilities for teams and managers to handle work in one …
Chose monday.com
monday.com is a much better tool for keeping track of tasks and assignments than MS Planner. In most situations where we used MS Planner we have switched to using monday.com instead.
Chose monday.com
The best aspect of monday.com in my opinion is the Visual Based Data Representation(s)
Chose monday.com
monday.com is so much easier to use & project-tracking is not only easy to do, but the visuals are far from complicated & make it that much easier to keep track of everything.
Chose monday.com
I feel monday.com is easier to use than the others listed. Specifically, I used to use Trello in the past and I really liked it. I even recommended others to use it but since working in monday.com, I found it has so many more features that meet our teams needs and we have found …
Chose monday.com
monday.com has the only interface that is 100% customizable, can use public and private boards, can be shared with customers, produce Gantt charts, and has THE MOST integrations "in house". The professional relationships that monday.com has established to be "on board" with …
Chose monday.com
I searched for some other alternatives like monday.com, and I also tried them. For example, I have experience with Sloneek. But monday.com just feels different. I think it beats the competition in every way. You can also use monday's free version, and it is still a good task …
Chose monday.com
I chose monday.com because of its flexibility and ability to adapt to our needs. Throughout our work, I've seen how it helps us increase productivity and efficiency, which solidified my decision.
Chose monday.com
Compared to the competition, monday.com has better control, more possibilities for use, and the price is very acceptable.
Chose monday.com
The easy of use and configuration is where monday.com has had an advantage. The ability for all our users to startup on the platform has helped to incorporate it into our enterprise environment quickly.
Chose monday.com
Actually, monday.com and Trello, although they are digital board systems, are both very different from each other. Trello is a simpler system that, although its function is also the organization of tasks, its visual system gradually overwhelms the user by "piling up" each post …
Chose monday.com
monday.com is simpler and easier to grasp, apply and navigate than Clickup, but the Clickup free version has so much more functionality available than the monday.com free / low-cost options (sorry, but it's true!).
Google tasks is really simple and I shouldn't really compare …
Planview PPM Pro
Chose Planview PPM Pro
PPM Pro is more robust than Trello or other Kanban-type software and more configurable than MS Project. However, it needs to work on making schedules from P6 and MS Project easier to import.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
PPM Pro provides and enterprise view and robust features that not all the other products have.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Other tools are much more powerful and robust in reporting but at a significantly higher price point. PPM Pro delivers a lot of bang for your buck.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Microsoft Project does not integrate the data or provide meaningful dashboards. We needed a tool that could manage a portfolio of projects versus just a single project view. In addition we needed a tool to track financials and internal effort all integrated into one product. …
Chose Planview PPM Pro
We have only used PPM PRO since we started Portfolio Management with Wake County back in 2015. The tool has served us well over the years and grown with us as we have expanded our strategic efforts. We recently implemented ProjectPlace and interfaced with PPM PRO to enhance …
Chose Planview PPM Pro
PPM Pro is easier to setup and create customer value. Easier to manage.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
I think the most winning features of Planview PPM Pro compared to other similar products is projects with strategic objectives, it can prioritize projects based on business value, helping to ensure that resources are being allocated to the most important initiatives. This can …
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro integrates all of the PM features of other applications and then adds features on top of them. Other applications tend to offer a solution around as single "need", forcing users to "build their own solution".
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Simple and easy to learn dashboards.
Reporting modules are complete and outstanding.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro is a suite of multiple products which makes it different from other tools. PMO-related features are easy to use. Time tracking is much less cumbersome as compared to other tools. Also, the interface is clean but UI looks a bit old school. Navigation within the …
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro is limited function vs clarity.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
We selected based on many reasons. Product support, custom work intake, dashboard capabilities, and project financial tracking. The support model was solid.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Not involved in selection process at my company. I have worked with other PPM tools at past companies - including an older version of Planview (back in early 2000's)
Chose Planview PPM Pro
I didn't use it as much, but PPMPro seems better organized than Atlassian Jira
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro does a better job of portfolio management.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
In addition to [Planview PPM Pro (formerly Innotas)], I have also used a variety of homegrown/custom PPM systems and Microsoft Project, Microsoft Project Server, JIra (with Confluence), and some other systems whose names I cannot remember. PPM Pro, by far, is the best of all …
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Project Place and Leankit -- Excited and happy to have access to both products. Integration is the key to both collaboration tools. Both very easy to use and leverage.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
Planview PPM Pro works well for the project defined and captures time tracking and financial metrics however I was not part of the selection of the tool
Chose Planview PPM Pro
PPM Pro is really the only portfolio management tool that I've used so it's hard to compare. MS Project doesn't really compare to the feature set that PPM Pro offers.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
On-premise only, not online. Microsoft has a stronger scheduling engine but capabilities and growth in PPM Pro is excellent.
Chose Planview PPM Pro
All have similar capabilities. The tool is only as good as the data you are putting into it. Make sure you have business buy-in and clear processes set.

Here, I will suggest that it is best to create employees, clients, or project reports. Easy to track with the dashboards. I did many integrations and developments. I can not list each of them here. I will say the best tool for management. I couldn't see criteria of unsuitable. But yes It will depend on the client's requirements. I will suggest it as very user-friendly tool for CEOs, CTOs, Managers, and company owners also for team.

PPMPro is well suited for tracking new product introduction projects, as well as process changes. It serves to reliably track ongoing action items, issues, resource allocations for projects. Areas where PPMPro is less appropriate for use: Project to project dependencies, automating action item notifications on multiple platforms, integrations of PPMPro into other platforms PMO typically uses (like MS Projects, Teams, ppt, etc)

Pros
  • Set stages for each task and assign people to those stages to move projects along
  • Set up automated tasks to get assigned to people and to send out notifications to Slack as well as emails to contractors to work on a project
  • Create multiple boards for projects and the ability to review tasks by date to make sure no project slips through the cracks
Read full review
  • New request workflow/kanban board helps visualize where new requests are in the process of the quote to cash/request to completion
  • The time tracking tool is tied directly to project tasks for seamless integration of time tracking, estimates, and actuals
  • The reporting capabilities and ease of use has allowed us visibility to data that we never had before
  • The tool is easily configurable by Administrators. We can add fields, change reports, add new dashboards within hours vs. days of trying to track things manually
Read full review
Cons
  • Ensuring I have set up a Private board vs public board is not clear - it would be useful to have an additional alert when creating a board as I work with sensitive information. It will eventually be used in a team based environment but while I test the boards, they needs to be private.
  • Time tracking is clumsy, could be easier to record
Read full review
  • The base API is not a REST based interface and is difficult to use for integration with other systems in the enterprise.
  • The UI for the maintenance of the task schedule for projects can be a bit cumbersome , although the spreadsheet style editor helps somewhat. The Gantt view is not interactive.
  • The workflow engine is designed only for initial project intake, and does not allow for an integration of the work flow with the project from start to end, so it can't be used for routing artifacts like change requests, ancillary project approvals, etc.

Teams involved in content creation, such as marketing or editorial teams, could use monday.com to manage the entire content lifecycle. Boards might track content ideas, assignments, drafts, reviews, approvals, and publication schedules, helping teams collaborate and keep content production on track.

Usability
It's straightforward to use and simple to understand. They have tutorials on different elements of the system that you can learn. The workflow there is very intuitive, drag and drop, which doesn't require a learning curve for most people. Templates that also make things more accessible can be found.

PPM Pro has very effective process capabilities around Project, Demand, and Resource Management as well as Reporting/Dashboards. Very stable platform, never any downtime. We now also have PPM Pro Sandbox which we have leveraged for any new major developments such as Request Management.

Everything performs fairly well. Every now and then there are user errors where an employee will not click "ok" on a note they've created and simply exit out (I do wish that something was in place to prevent this, such as a pop "are you finished?")

monday.com only really care about accounts that have 20 seats or more. While this is great for monday.com, it pushes smaller organisations to evaluate alternatives. We rate monday.com highly in our organisation because key staff have already got good experience with the application and we know we will get to 20+ seats one day. But, till then the billing model and lack of permanent enterprise features is a dread.

Their ability to assist and answer questions when needed is incredible. They create innovative ways to share information and help customers trouble shoot. I didn't give it a ten because I believe they could do a better job of personally reaching out to customers and providing improvement guidance based on where the customer is at and their needs at the time

We signed up for the accounts. Created the accounts. Ran the trial version and tested it live while we were running multiple projects and found that it was fitting our needs perfectly. When the trial ended and we were asked to purchase the full version, we did. We have found other ways to use it and it's a breeze.
