Planisware, Inc. Announces Planisware Version 5.2 Release

Planisware, a leading global provider of world-class project and portfolio management (PPM) solutions recently announced the release of Planisware 5.2. Available immediately, Planisware 5.2 is the organization’s most ambitious release to date and features more enhancements and upgrades than any previous Planisware version.

Showcased in this release is a comprehensive Product Portfolio Management module that enables Planisware users to actively manage the full product lifecycle. Planisware’s Product Portfolio Management module encompasses functionality that goes beyond that offered by standard Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools which focus solely on processes and data; it is the first of its kind to target business strategy decision by decision. Utilizing this new module, users can manage their product pipeline lifecycles, monitor strategy alignment, control resource allocations, continually monitor product health and adjust priorities based on market, regulatory and business changes.

“Our new Product Portfolio Management module provides something completely new to the market by addressing the need to integrate Business Intelligence and Decision Support into Product Lifecycle Management,” said Planisware CEO and co-founder Pierre Demonsant. “We have already received an enthusiastic response from our customers and prospects who desire a system that can help them better manage and streamline the product development process. Planisware is thrilled to present an innovation that marks an evolution in our industry.”

Customers can also benefit from a host of other system enhancements which includes new interfaces to Microsoft SharePoint® and Oracle® Primavera, a new configurable dashboard, an augmented Idea Management module and several upgrades to the system’s spreadsheet capabilities. The solution’s Microsoft Office® integration features also come with several enhancements, such as improved Excel® exchange, PowerPoint® generation and structured Word® document import.

Planisware will feature its product at a number of venues and tradeshows, and is available for viewing through one-on-one demonstrations. For more information, please visit http://www.planisware.com or call 1-888-752-6479 to reach a member of their global team.
