Decision Stories

What drove your company to look into a PPM service? What were your motivations, and what were your business needs?

• Wanted to take the focus away from trying to manage projects and focus more on the actual business of banking.
• Planview and a home-grown tool was used prior to Daptiv PPM and required much more effort.

What process did you go through to select a PPM provider? What was your criteria in selecting a PPM provider?

Began to look into a new PPM option, but the process in choosing a tool was easy since the needs were clear:

• Clear dashboards that help drive a focus
• Simplicity. Nothing complicated, especially for end users. It had to be something that project managers could easily adopt.
• Flexibility. The tool should be customizable for YES BANK’s framework so they could map it back to Daptiv PPM without much effort.
• Commercials (cost-effective)

In addition to Daptiv, did you look into other PPM / Business software providers? Why did you choose Daptiv?

• Project.net
• @task
• Visibel

Daptiv was chosen because:

• Intuitiveness of software. The end user needs to be able to maneuver quickly.
• Distinct features that other vendors didn’t have:
  • Demand management
  • Capacity planning – scheduling work loads
  • Reporting capabilities
