Planview PPM Pro - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Planview PPM Pro is cloud-based project portfolio management software that centralizes portfolios, resources, financials, and reporting for PMO teams, giving PMO leaders and resource managers a shared system of record. It supports waterfall and hybrid delivery, with governance for work intake, financial tracking, and reporting.

The Resource Workbench gives resource managers a centralized, real-time view of demand versus capacity across all open projects, with Skills Profiles for matching resources to project requirements and capacity planning for both employees and contractors. Predictive Portfolio Analysis automatically identifies the highest-value project mix given current resource and budget constraints, while What-If Analysis lets teams manually model staffing and timing changes against available capacity before committing to them.

Configurable request forms and scoring models route new work through categorization, sizing, and approval, with distinct workflows, gate owners, and approval rules by request category. Approved requests automatically generate or update projects. Financial management tracks budget, forecast, and actuals at the task, project, and portfolio level, including capitalization tracking for capex versus opex classification.

Reporting runs through PPM Pro's R2D2 engine, supporting Bubble, Pie, Spiderweb, Donut, Column, and List report types, configurable health indicators, and calculated fields that let teams derive custom metrics from existing project data for tailored KPIs without a new data model. Portfolio Financials Dashboards compare approved, forecast, and actual costs, sliceable by capex/opex or strategic objective. Reports can be published, exported, and distributed on a recurring schedule.

PPM Pro also supports new product development portfolios, with stage-gate workflows and scoring models applied to NPD pipelines the same way they apply to IT project intake. Timesheets let team members log time against project tasks, feeding actuals into project financials and resource utilization reporting. Planview.Me widgets surface timesheet approvals, request approvals, task views, and self-service data visualizations for stakeholders who don't need full application access.

Anvi, Planview's AI capability, adds an Insights Widget for AI-powered portfolio health analysis and anomaly surfacing, with an Anvi Chat conversational interface available in early access for project queries and portfolio summaries.

PPM Pro connects natively with Planview AgilePlace and ProjectPlace for hybrid delivery teams, and integrates externally with Jira, Azure DevOps, and Cherwell.
