I am very appreciative of the flexibility of the Shibumi product. I appreciate how quickly and easily I can enter basic information to communicate an 'idea' without getting bogged into too many details. The ease in creating dashboards is a huge plus for me as well.

Shibumi Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like that we can (and have) customized this to allow for very basic entry without requiring every nit and knock that will ever be known about the project, allowing for estimated budgets to be entered well in advance of planning. I've found the ability to add new fields to be able to reclassify projects for the current year's Strategy Focus to be extremely helpful. And the dashboards that allow updating info in bulk are great time savers .

Like

The look and feel of the interface is great.

Like

Flexible platform and highly adaptable to specific business processes

Dislike

Some of the bulk update features could be a tiny bit easier to use, but since other PPM tools have zero, I'll take these with a big smile.

Dislike

Expressions for configuring notifications and other features can be complicated. Notifications don't always work as expected, and are difficult to test/troubleshoot. User experience suffers as a result.

Dislike

UI can be more user friendly and intuitive
