Question 2

How much does PMPeople cost?

Accepted Answer

PMPeople can be used for free, with no time limit and no restrictions on the number of users. In premium organizations, only managers incur a cost. Each premium seat is priced at $25 USD per month in the Standard Plan. Users with multiple premium roles are counted as one seat. Organization owners are billed either monthly or annually (annual payments save the cost of two months). Organization owners can adjust the number of premium seats based on their organization's needs. Some roles are always free: stakeholders, team members, sponsors, and resource managers. For example, in the Standard Plan, the cost for an organization with 5 managers, 50 team members, and 100 stakeholders would be $125 USD per month or $1,260 USD annually.

Question 3

What if I want to stop paying?

Any time, in one click, the organization owner can revert to free. This gets all project data moved from the premium organization to the free organization PMPeople. No project data are lost and people can continue collaborating on project management. In the free organization PMPeople, PMO role is not available, users do not have their projects in a separate environment, they are shown ads, and no live chat for support is provided.

Question 4

How is the upgrading process?

Accepted Answer

Any user can move the projects belonging to his or her business units from the free organization PMPeople to a separate premium organization. In one click, a new organization is created, containing all his or her business units –no longer being at free organization PMPeople– including all the projects and users accessing with their respective roles. The user who creates the premium organization is appointed as the organization owner. A trial period of 20 days is then started. During the trial, the owner should decide if upgrading or reverting back to the free organization PMPeople. When upgrade is started, the organization owner is billed just for the premium seats, that is, only for those users who use one or more of the following roles: requester, PMO, project manager assistant, portfolio manager, program manager, project manager, or functional manager.

Question 6

How is PMPeople tool compared with competitors?

Accepted Answer

Our competitors are other PPM tools such as Microsoft Project Server, Sciforma, Clarity, SAP PPM, Planview, ProjectManager.com, SmartSheet, etc. All these products are not free, they are not designed as mobile applications, and they do not integrate easily with other products. PMPeople is integrated with task management tools like Asana, Jira, Wrike, Basecamp, Monday, ClickUP, Trello, etc. We are also integrated with scheduling tools like Primavera, Microsoft Project, ProjectLibre, etc. PMPeople can be used for free forever and, in premium mode, only managers count for payment –e.g. stakeholders and team members do not count–. For instance, if your organization has only 2 project managers, 20 team members and 50 stakeholders, you would pay only 40€/month!

Question 7

Can PMPeople be used in agile organizations?

Accepted Answer

Organizations are getting projectified. Along with predictive projects, they have more and more agile or hybrid projects. Professional project management is needed in agile projects to ensure they deliver the value and meet the management goals. The PMO can help people collaborate online using different roles, be them team members in an agile team, or top managers in the board of directors. PMPeople can support self-organizing teams avoiding waste and impediments. PMPeople can support top managers in agile governance, since they still have the right to get good estimates about schedule, cost, scope, quality, etc. They also need to be informed continuously on value delivery and benefit realization, so that they can take corrective actions when it is not too late. With PMPeople, people can collaborate professionally to turn ideas into reality.
