Which tool is the right for me?

 

When scouting for the best Project Management Software for your company it is recommended that you review the features, costs, and other important information concerning the product and vendor. Here, we would like to introduce two well known tools used by the worlds leading companies. Jira and Planview. But what are they both capable of?

Let's have a look at the parallels and disparities between Jira and Planview:

About Planview

Planview is very good as a traditional project management solution. Which is why it is good to support bi-modal work and telling a compelling narrative around it. This helps customers transform on their own terms and timeline, which may lower the time investment of a transformation.

It has a strong financial reporting functionality → a key differentiator between Planview’s traditional approach to portfolio management and Jira Align’s agile approach leveraging Lean Portfolio Management.

But...

Planview is a traditional project management solution and therefore not a full agile solution such as Jira Align. As most companies are transforming their business into agile framework, others struggle keeping up with the change going on around them. Planview is also extremely complex and requires a dedicated team to manage the solution, which can lead to high costs. 

Customers will require two extra products to be successful in this matter. While the integration between Enterprise One and LeanKit isn't a perfect solution, Jira + Jira Align are made to work perfectly together and drive a higher user satisfaction.

Planview is a combination product of recent acquisitions. In the end, this results in different UI which leads to a not streamlined UX.

 

What about Jira Align?
