Are you able to model different scenarios i.e. put a project on hold and show how resources were freed up based on resource type etc.? can you model and analyze when to start projects based on resource availability etc? Please reach out if you have practical experience in these areas. Thank you Ed Saving Changes...

Choosing the best PPM software is an important decision that depends on the specific needs of each organization. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. When selecting PPM software, it is critical to consider factors such as company size, project complexity, budget, and required functionality. Some of the most popular PPM software include Microsoft Project, Adobe Workfront, Planview Enterprise One, Asana, and Monday.com, but it is essential to evaluate each option thoroughly before making a decision. However, it is essential to evaluate each option thoroughly before making a decision. Key recommendations: Define your needs: Clearly identify what functionality you need in a PPM software. Conduct trials: Take advantage of free trials to evaluate different options. Request demos: Ask vendors to show you how the software works in practice. Read reviews: Research the opinions of other users. In summary, choosing the right PPM software is crucial to optimize project management and improve the efficiency of your organization.

I’m a late to this thread, but I think the best PPM software really depends on what you need from resource capacity planning. There is no one-size-fits-all option. Tools like Monday.com, Asana, Microsoft Project, Planview, and Celoxis can all be worth evaluating depending on the size of the team, project complexity, and how detailed the resource planning needs to be.
Monday.com and Asana are good options for straightforward team and work coordination, while Microsoft Project is well known for detailed project planning. Planview is also worth considering for broader PPM requirements.
For your use case, I would specifically test whether the tool can help you model scenarios, understand what happens to capacity when projects are delayed or put on hold, and decide when new projects can realistically start based on resource availability. Celoxis is also worth looking at if role based capacity planning is important before specific people are assigned. The best approach is to shortlist a few tools and test them with real scenarios from your environment. Saving Changes...
