What it does
Planview ProjectAdvantage is a project and portfolio management product with Gantt and critical-path scheduling, dependencies, baselines, task breakdowns, resource planning, budgets, risks, and dashboards. The official product page describes support for Agile, Waterfall, and Stage-Gate approaches and identifies the offering as formerly Sciforma.
ProjectAdvantage targets teams that need formal project controls as well as task coordination. Its described planning tools include task breakdowns, dependencies, baselines, Gantt and critical-path schedules, while portfolio features add resource planning, budget and risk visibility, and dashboards. Support for Agile, Waterfall, and Stage-Gate methods gives program offices room to combine delivery styles. The source identifies ProjectAdvantage as formerly Sciforma, so buyers comparing legacy contracts or product names should confirm the current edition and migration path with Planview.
