There would be content stored in different locations, many times with projects never being updated, which made it difficult to truly know the status of a project. We have previously used SharePoint and online storage drives for collaborative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/solutions\/work-management\/\">work management<\/a>. SharePoint was okay, but it wasn\u2019t used or updated often enough. For the online storage drives, you would run into the problem of having a self-created structure. Many sub-folders hiding more folders within folders would make it confusing and frustrating to find what you were looking for. We needed a tool that could enhance project management skills.<\/p>\n<p>We switched to ProjectPlace   and now use it daily, even more often than Outlook. It\u2019s how we get work done! It\u2019s made us more efficient by providing the ability to track our projects, assign tasks, and it has an awesome <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/projectplace\/file-sharing-document-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">documentation feature<\/a> where we can upload and review content across our global team. Anytime a new training video is released on the Planview Customer Success Center, I look at how my team and I can incorporate the new feature.<\/p>\n<p>The boards are my favorite feature. The visualization provided by the <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/projectplace\/online-kanban-board-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kanban boards<\/a>\u00a0makes it easy to identify the status of all our projects at a glance! I particularly like being able to move my cards along the different phases of the project, with no need to sort through endless emails or sticky notes to know what\u2019s going on. It\u2019s right there in front of you. I can keep my team informed on corporate projects as a site discussion and track activities for the Customer Experience team.<\/p>\n<p>My advice to departments wanting to strengthen their project management skills is to use Projectplace! It\u2019s fantastic, the best collaboration tool I have used. It\u2019s easy to get started, and there are many self-guided videos on the Customer Success Center to get you on your way. Utilize other power users to assist in the learning process. Create your team in Projectplace, and get a team champion to drive success.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Projectplace, visit the website and <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/projectplace\/enterprise-trial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">download your free trial today.<\/a>\u00a0For more information on\u00a0how ProjectPlace  can benefit each department in your organization, check out the following use-case blogs, covering: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/public-relations-project-management-turning-professional-cat-herders-efficient-project-managers\/\">Public Relations<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/human-resources-project-management\/\">Human Resources<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/marketing-project-management-content-development-delivery\/\">Blog Management<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/improving-cross-department-communications-throughout-the-business-interview\/\">Cross-Department Communication<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/project-management-in-demand-generation-marketing\/\">Demand Generation Marketing<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/event-management-are-you-managing-it-or-is-it-managing-you\/\">Event Management<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/digital-marketing-project-management-in-action\/\">Digital Marketing<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/optimizing-customer-project-management\/\">Customer Renewals<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/rfp-project-planning-doesnt-have-to-be-deadly\/\">RFP Project Planning<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/improve-sales-team-collaboration\/\">Sales Team Collaboration<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/strengthen-your-project-management-skills\/\">Customer Experience<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/dynamic-sales-and-project-management-software\/\">Solutions Marketing<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/improving-sales-project-management-using-projectplace\/\">Sales Project Management<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/products-solutions\/products\/projectplace\/enterprise-trial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5104 size-full\" style=\"max-width: 600px; display: inline-block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/projectplace-templates-free-trial-600x200.jpg\" alt=\"ProjectPlace Free Trial\" width=\"600\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/projectplace-templates-free-trial-600x200.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/projectplace-templates-free-trial-600x200-300x100.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the past, project collaboration hasn\u2019t always been easy. \u00a0We were having to use multiple sites or applications to track projects.
