One2Team

Avantages

Performance = these last years, down time has been almost non existant.
SAAS = enables us to work with other administrations and service providers without the network constraint of on-premise tools;
Customisation = the ability to shape the tool as you see fit (but some prefer to have best pratices)
Interface = it has come a long way since our first use over 8 years ago, with a cool slideboard interface and Gant type planning ability

Inconvénients

The administration interface, but the administration process is robust.

Avantages

Capacity Planning + Report Management + TimeSheets management

Inconvénients

Planning V3, the synchronization between O2T and Tempus which does not suit us

Pourquoi passer à One2Team

Avantages

- Easy to use
- Personalized views
- Possibility to have real time KPIs based on the data within the application
- Integration with third software, even if we did not implement if for now. At least we know it is there

Inconvénients

1. Administrator perspective
- Lacks a bit of automation in the configuration process
e.g: adding a new item on all slideboards has to be done manually & it is very time consuming; Plus there is a lot of place for errors in the procedure
- Lacks a bit of logic in some cases
e.g: new button at the end of the row when adding a new item, which means a lot of clicks
2. User Experience
- Gantt Planning module:
- Not synchronized with the whole user experience journey; it lacks a touch of modern
- The filters do not make sense and they lake logic as well
- I consider this as the biggest drawback for O2T; We actually do not use it at all
- Cockpits lack:
- Possibility to display the graphs with embedded explanation in the graphs; Currently we have to hover over a graph to see the data. In the case of a Print Screen, we can not see much and the graphs are not explicit
- Easier way to arrange graphs; Arranging them is really complicated

Avantages

Saas tehnology is easy to deploy over the world in different entitities (no specific internal process to organize).
One 2 Team software is not an expert software. That give opportunity to customized it easily to our needs
Esay to use. Learning curve is quik.

Inconvénients

Interaction between Planning and Slideboard should be more powerfull.

Pourquoi passer à One2Team

Avantages

I like its versatility, its ease of use and its friendly look for the final user. About the ease of use, the main points are the integration with our compagny SSO, the slideboards (global overview on projects for manager or actions for employee) and the timesheet (ARM) module.
Another big asset is the very fast reactivity of the consultants during the set up phases of the tool.

Inconvénients

The administration of the tool is not very friendly and intuitive (I have to say that I don't follow the official admin training yet).
Clearly, a better integration with Gsuite (Gdrive in particular) is critical to avoid to manage various versions of the document. Integration with sale force will be also very interesting (currently we use the copy/paste method).
The other issue is that the synchronisation is not immediate (between ARM and O2T and in a card when a date is changed for example).
Last point, it seems that the tool becomes more "complex", less readable. What is the difference between the cockpit and the report management in ARM... planning and capacity planning are closed but not so closed... it is not easy for me to have a good overview of the possibilities of the tool.

Avantages

This software is easy to implement and then to customize even if you do not have advanced skills in IT. You can grow with the solution and adapt it as you go

From a user point of view, it is also very easy to use

When we compare the uses case implement 3 years ago and where we are today, there is a huge difference, we can now use the tool for many use case and many other department takes their own use.

We are using the tool for this use cases :
The closing management
The IT problem on the critical way of clossing process
The saturday workflow process to work for employees
The continuous improvement plans for the accounts closing process
Management of the control plan for the closing of accounts

Inconvénients

Cons :
- The ability of the tool to adapt to changing uses.
- Its ease of use for users.
- The ability to take control of the configuration

Least :
- Not enought communication on the evolution's tool

Avantages

I like that the system can be configured to meet specific business requirements and the user interface is easy to navigate.

Inconvénients

The lack of ad hoc end user reporting is a drawback and the reporting functionality available is limited and somewhat difficult to set up.

Avantages

for a Global company like ours it's important to have a global view on the research labs activities in one tool. Plus, for an efficient work of a team member, managers can have full visibility on their workload now and in the following weeks. What we like is that it provides consolidates view and dashboards for managers, plus, detailed enough view form team members.
Different users profiles can use it without disturbing each other.
First version was not very easy to use, now we are adapting it based on 9 month use experience. Anyway, it's much better than exchange of excel files and numerous emails. For now we don't use integration with other apps but we plan.

Inconvénients

There are some feature that we'd like to have in the future: possibility to use Gantt chart up to Action level. That will allow us to take project management to thenext level.
From time to time there are bugs, like users create cards and the system shows the message that it was not created. Users create a new one, and at the end they have 2 or more cards. Then I have to delete them. Not critical but some users are impatient.

Avantages

We liked:
- The administration/configuration flexibility: we have complete autonomy to customize One2Team and make it fit our needs.
- Powerful and intuitive management features: cockpit for KPI tracking, slideboard / gridboard for advanced data visualisation..
- Document versioning system and notifications features are really helping us in terms of project accountancy and traceability
- One common, shared space: no reporting required, the information is shared in real time
- One2Team's support team reactivity / Frequent product updates and new functionalities releases

Inconvénients

A new tool means a change of habits for any employee.
One2Team is easy to install (Actually no installation is required), intuitive, and quick to appropriate. Once each employee understand the strengths of One2Team, and everyone starts to work in a collaborative way, there is no way back! Even employees who are not IT-friendly can manage to adopt One2Team without reluctance. And One2Team team helped us prepare training session and quickly deploy One2Team through our organization

Avantages

- Intuitive
- Ergomic
- Customizable easily

Inconvénients

-Cost if you want to extend to all employees if front of solution like Office 365 with Planner for the action

Avantages

ease of use w/ one main module
visual display
"kanban" boards for task management on top of project mgmt
stage gate process management
resource management module

Inconvénients

absence of multiple currencies management (only 1 currency possible) limiting the added value for worldwide usage
complexity of consolidation of projects: graphs & analysis in the dedicated consolidation module are complex to configure, not easily adaptable and limited in terms of diplay (graphs, legends...)
configuration complexity: overall for admins
low condifentiality management: possible but increasing admin workload

Avantages

The product is easy to use and can evolve as we grow. User friendly.

Inconvénients

The planning function is very unsatisfactory. The functionnalities are too limited (no customisation of color, shape, ...)) and the vizualisation result is quite short of what our users are used to. In our company, to be able to present a concise / visual roadmap is key and O2T doesn't enable us to meet that requirement.
And too expensive to have for all our employees (we can only afford to have a few selected teams equiped with the solution), which would have considerably boosted the interest and ROI.
And the fact that there are no "view only" licences doesn't help

Avantages

It's flexibility. During the initial implementation phase, we were able to customize the tool to fit our specific program management needs.
Slideboard views are really useful.

Inconvénients

Navigation between cards within the same project could be improved.
The Gantt Diagram functionality could be slightly improved.
In the dashboards, color coding is not optimal (if you have many items, the same color might be used twice).

Inconvénients

Administration management not very modern
business portfolio management is not very user friendly and we don't have as smooth a management as on excel / google sheet

The user adoption was positive for all the categories of users: both experts and operations. Particularly for people having to log and report their activity on a daily basis.
Among others, we appreciate: fast implementation (few weeks) / flexibility of the platform fitting with lots of specific requirements / the multi-site mode - our programs are all across the EU / excellent user adoption from both regular and occasional users / data consistency and dashboards
Overall- One2team has a first class customer support and a great professional services/cost ratio.

Inconvénients

You may have to invest in communication/training sessions to shorten the learning curve (we did short videos to help people handle things specific to our business - this was more than welcomed by our users)

Avantages

The tool is rich and robust. The possibilities of customization are numerous. Reports and boards are very usefull.

Inconvénients

Timesheets Integration and notifications

Avantages

Many interesting features included in the application. Well made to have a team contributiong to a project.
From request to overall portfolio management.

Inconvénients

Very nice and polished user interface but too many space are useless.
They should have put more data and text in the same GUI.

Avantages

All new functionalities we ask to put in place:
- cockpit view
- local P&L
- Portfolio KPIs

Inconvénients

- low support from O2t in case of problems
- ressources management module very difficult to implement
- simple requests always seem very difficult to put in place, no agility & solution-oriented mindset

Avantages

One2Team pays attention to feed back and is solution oriented. They adapt the tool functionalities to your specific needs.
Their mission is aligned with companies' issues: we waste time gathering all actions taken in different meetings => such a promising tool !

Inconvénients

The app is easy to use but you need a preliminary explanation.

Avantages

At first, I thought that One2Team was a simple tool to break internal silos between functions, countries or brands. Then I thought it was a big data solution enabling to vizualize a very diverse set of data in a simple and actionable way. Finally, I thought it was an End-to-End decision making tool for operations and top managment.

In fact, I discovered this combines the 3 and actually more.

Inconvénients

Unable to answer in details on this question, as I was receiving the outcome from the users.

Avantages

Dashboard.
Collaborative work in a project

Inconvénients

First step to understand the product nos so easy
Bad implementation can be done for this product if customer do not understand aim of this product.

Avantages

I can't say enough about how One2Team has impacted our PM team. We love the ease of use, integration with our business and how efficient it has made our project management.

Inconvénients

I appreciate how often they improve/update the software, not stark improvements but they certainly listen to their customers, on the whole no major complaints.

Avantages

We manage successfully different types of project (growth strategies performance project, sales operations (dealership new identities, Digital & CRM roll-out)
We wanted a tool that could help us synchronize corporate and regional direction with local teams, share the plan, empower the people and track the Renault's strategic plan impact and very quick to set-up allowing implementation from simple to complex

Inconvénients

As all software, there are some features that could be improved or added. They improve it on regular basis with no regression. There are more pro's that con's for the type of project we are running
As a Company, no issue, they listen their customer and are proactive.
