"PMO jump start"
What do you like best about Sciforma?

What I like best about the tool is the web based collaborative project and portfolio management capability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

What I dislike is the fact that creating and editing project plans initially requires additional time to understand the nuances of the tools functions (much different than Project) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sciforma: All in one"
What do you like best about Sciforma?

it allows multiple projects managers working projects all under the same roof, to know what milestones are achieved, in domino effect projects, and as well the up coming interventions for regrouped shutdowns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

tabs are not so obvious to jump from one to another and remember what are the sub-tabs . Cluttered information under some tabs. The project name under which I could be working one is not so obviously visible. Should I be interrupted and have to come back to it later, I visually have a hard time figuring out under what project I was working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic business to consult and work, the tool has transformed our PMO and projects."
What do you like best about Sciforma?

The PPM tool has fantastic and frequent upgrades, whilst we do not take each upgrade this really gives us steer and the tool is constantly enhancing. New features have really enhanced the user for those who work it and for those that read the information it produces. The tool has really advanced in the last year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

Java can at times be complex to use as I do not have a background in using this software, the guides are helpful but these are not always easy to understand or give the answer require meaning working on the back-end of the tool can take longer due to JAVA complexities.

"Sepura PM team Sciforma review"
What do you like best about Sciforma?

It's a simple and flexible tool for Project, Portfolio and Resource Management and you are quickly up to speed.

Using as a PM (mainly Gantt's and reports) is quick and easy.

Using as a Resource Manager (track people, time, holidays, training etc...) also simple.

The reports are excellent and enable Project and Resource tracking and management across the portfolio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

Still using V5 and the presentation of the reports could be better (think this has been sorted in V7 with the move to HTML). We use in conjunction with Tableau right now as the Tableau front end allows a slightly easier manipulation / presentation of data. But when we move to V7 I expect that we will simply revert to using Sciforma again.

We use this in conjunction with JIRA Agile as I feel that is simpler / easier at tracking both bugs / issues plus Agile user stories. Would have been nice to have not needed this but that ship has sailed now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Happy user of Sciforma for many years, this product has grown with us"
What do you like best about Sciforma?

You have the ability to customise virtually all aspects of Sciforma to suite the way you operate. There are also standard add ons which provide extra functionality. This mix of standard and cusomisation was important to the way we wanted to start our journey with Sciforma. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

When we started out there were not many add ons but they have come a long way since then. This has left us with a bit of a dilemma as we would like to use the add ons to replace out heavy customization. It's a lot of work but we think tis will be valuable to us.

"New User"
What do you like best about Sciforma?

Very little. I have been able to make very minor configurations and we limp along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sciforma?

The Java tool is very hard to configure. It is not intuitive. There are no user manuals. The search system for the Knowledge Base is frustrating and a waste of time. v7.0 is a vast improvement from v5.0 but compared to other tools in the market (HP, MS Server, Clarity) its not even in the same league. Top 10 dislikes: Scheduler, restricted to assigning resources to tasks instead of projects, system is total effort based instead of planned vs. actuals, un-editable dashboards, working vs. published, token system....
