Chose Rocketlane
The older one was no as good as Rocketlane because the User interface and UI are most important to use any software for the end user. Because more easy to understand, and easier to adapt the software. Thanks, Rocketplane I really like rocketplane because of its features and …
Chose Rocketlane
Rocketlane was extremely easy to stand up and get running. Both our internal teams and customers have been fans of the process so far. We had our first projects set up, with our Salesforce sync and white-labeled branding all live within the first week.
Chose Rocketlane
For our specific needs, Rocketlane fits the bill perfectly. It had just the right amount of features without it being overly complicated to teach the client. The pricing also worked out well: just pay monthly licenses per user.
Chose Rocketlane
Rocketlane is more robust for onboarding than monday.com with better customer interface. However, Rocketlane does not have some of the advanced features of ChurnZero or GUIDEcx. However, Rocketlane's pricing is aligned well with the features they offer.

User Testimonials
RocketlaneWorkOtter PPM
Likelihood to Recommend
There is project management tracking from the start till the end (onboarding till hypercare). The bifurcation of project stages and pre-built templates is good; you can assign client tasks. Less appropriate: Raising tickets for developers because there is no escalation management option. Let’s say the developer didn’t reply in 24 hours for a high-priority task; this should be automatically escalated to their senior.

I know it works well for IT but not sure how it would work for construction. I think construction has a different set of needs.

  • I can't think of anything major that is missing. I understand it was challenging to integrate it with our commercial banking application but I wasn't involved in that process.

Return on Investment
  • As an admin and end-user, Rocketlane has saved me at least four hours of work every week. Multiply that across the entire team, and we're saving two full days of work by removing all the manual tasks.
Read full review
  • I think it has really helped us make sure we are using resources effectively but I think it is hard to prove. Although we don't have hard ROI numbers, I believe the general feeling is that you really need a good PPM tool or will waste a lot of time and money.
  • It helps with communication since we have a standard process.
