Planisware Orchestra

What Planisware Orchestra is

Planisware Orchestra is a project portfolio management solution for PMOs, including teams overseeing IT, product, work-management, and creative projects. Shared dashboards and real-time views bring together project status, performance, issues, costs, and resource utilization. Teams can score projects for business alignment, compare business cases through portfolio scenario analysis, and plan resource availability, capacity, utilization, and skills. Orchestra supports waterfall, agile, hybrid, and phase-gate methods, with configurable end-to-end workflows. It also covers project intake, budget tracking, executive reporting, and cross-project dependencies. Listed integrations include Jira, Microsoft Azure DevOps, Broadcom Rally, Tableau, Power BI, SharePoint, and Microsoft Project. Orchestra is available only as SaaS, and pricing is provided on request; a company-reported approximation is about €50 per user per month, not a public product quote. A 14-day trial is available to applicants with more than 20 people involved in project planning, a dedicated contact, and time for a consultant call. Cloud operations are certified to SOC 1/2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, and the cloud infrastructure is described as single-tenant with data segregation and location controls.
