Sr. Compensation Analyst

David M.: Hi, I'm David. I'm a consultant for a firm that specializes in human resources. I give LiquidPlanner a four out of five. We tried to use a product with Atlassian. We tried to use the planner feature in Microsoft as well. But ultimately, we've hit upon LiquidPlanner as the best project management solution for our business. We really like LiquidPlanner at my firm because we engage in multiple projects at the same time with different clients. But those projects have a similar structure. So, there's a template within LiquidPlanner where you actually build out the basic steps of your project, and then every time we engage a new client, we're able to just deploy that template. As opposed to have to setting up every client engagement from scratch, we're able to use the template and get started in a matter of minutes. Another feature of LiquidPlanner that we really value is the way the handoffs work between project steps. What we found with a lot of project management software is you set your timeframe and it's based upon dates. So, if there's a handoff involved, most project management software would trigger the handoff based off of the date, not whether the handoff had actually occurred. But in LiquidPlanner, it doesn't actually notify the individual who's responsible for the next step until you actually indicate that you've completed that step and then initiate the handoff. So, it's very easy as an employee, particularly if you're involved in multiple projects as we are, that you really can just look at LiquidPlanner and it tells you exactly what steps you need to be doing. You don't have to interface with your colleagues and figure out where they are. If it's in your inbox in LiquidPlanner, then that means you need to be doing it. It's very easy. It's a pretty intuitive interface. It does take a little bit of time to build up the project template that I talked about earlier, but again, once you've taken the time to build that, you can then leverage that over and over again very easily. I would highly recommend LiquidPlanner for anybody who engages in multiple projects that have a similar structure, where you're deploying the same project steps or similar project steps over and over. I don't think it's probably the best project managing software if you are dealing with a new project every single time, but if like a lot of companies out there, you're doing the same things over and over again with different clients or different customers, LiquidPlanner is, in my opinion and experience, definitely the easiest project management software to use.

Brent J
Head Of Product Management
5.0

Brent J.: Hey, I'm Brent, Director of Product, and I give Roadmunk a five out of five. For more reviews, click here. For roadmapping and product management, it goes hand in hand. And we tried a tool called Aha!, and we also tried a simple tool called Trello. And both of the tools didn't work out for us. Trello was a little bit too simple. We needed something a little bit more powerful to connect to our Jira system, so that we could track projects a bit better. And Aha! was just way too complex. You needed to set up tons and tons of stuff. So on the implementation and on the tracking, and moving roadmap items around was just way too complex for us. Yeah. So we ended up picking Roadmunk, and I've actually used this tool at several different companies now. And, we all love it. It's extremely easy to set up. Any team member from your product group can jump in there, and it's super flexible, drag and drop interface. It's easy to move items around. And what probably was the main reason that I like it in a director role was that you can customize the view of your roadmap for any audience. So, if you're talking to your CEO or C-suite or VPs, you can give a specific view for them. And then you can tweak that view and change it for your development team, or maybe one of your development squads, same thing for your UX group. And so, it's super powerful to kind of slice and dice the different view that you want to give all your different stakeholders. Getting started with Roadmunk was really simple. We just signed up online. We got it in our account. Yeah, essentially, no training was needed. I mean, we followed a couple of their little tutorials to get set up, but essentially, the user interface is so simple that pretty much anyone working in software or development will be able to pick it up really easy. You can also import your items. So if you have a spreadsheet or some other tool that you're tracking already, you can quickly import it. But yeah, extremely easy to set up and get going. So anyone that's looking for a really simple, easy, flexible roadmapping tool, Roadmunk would be my first recommendation. The only thing that I'd caution you on, when thinking about Roadmunk, would be, it's not the best tool for prioritization techniques. So if you want a tool to do both, you could look at something else. But if you're good with your prioritization techniques using a whiteboarding tool or Excel or some other tool, Roadmunk is the perfect thing to fit in, in your product organization.
