Cloud based solution that allows to easily set up and manage larger projects. Structuring of Programs/Projects etc. is well done! Works smoothly and is always available.
The support team is great - quick replies ans always solutions on hand!

Very easy to use and once it is set-up easy to maintain. The data upload is gold and all users who were first negativ towards, yet another bureaucratic requirement understood it is making all pur lives easier.

Pros

The excellent support of the Team during set-up and during maintenance. Big shout out to all Nordantech people! Second the easy usability :-)

Cons

That you can't set-up tasks for Non-Users. Workaround possible with using the text.

As soon as the tool is set up and especially as soon as the PowerBI ins configured, the tool is key in our transformation.

Pros

The customer service is outstanding. The tool runs smoothly.

Cons

Missing automated visalizations and the effort to build up PowerBI connection to overcome this issue

Response from Nordantech Solutions

Dear Reviewer, thank you for your very kind comments! We also believe that Falcon would benefit from an analysis suite that goes beyond the available charts and reports. We will get to it!

Excellent Usability

Reviewed on 16/01/2024

Pros

The time to switch from an other tool to Falcon was quickly executed, new users get a hang of Falcon rather easily. The ability to connect Falcon to Power BI to generate custom Dashboards is brilliant. Overall, Falcon is a powerful tool, capable of generating transparency in massive projects, while setting it up requires little time to get used to it.

Cons

It would be nice if there was a way to sort Topics in the same hierarchy level by an other way than alphabetical/numerical order

Falcon is a great tool and meets most functionalities managing a PMO. Will be interesting to see further developments in the future

Pros

Easy to use and to administrate, in addition usefull slides can be generated which helps to keep all stakeholders informed

Cons

Within Falcon you cannot create your own reports to analyse a certain sample you want to look at

Response from Nordantech Solutions

Dear reviewer, thank you very much for your kind words! Indeed, Falcon does not allow for individual PowerPoint reports, but we are expanding the library of available standard options constantly. In addition, you may find that the native integration to Power BI is way to go? Let us know if we may show you what Falcon x Power BI can do :)

Great tool for turnaround professionals

Reviewed on 11/01/2024

Pros

Integrate turnaround-specific requirements (action plans & detailed financial planning and ) within one tool
Follow-up/Controlling within the same tool as in concept phase
Automated reporting

Cons

Nothing in particular, but as always, the advantages of automation come with a minor loss of flexibility (e.g., layout of reporting).

Implementation resp. customizing was quick and easy. Feedback from the users also very positive. Limited level of project tree extremely helps to keep focused without loosing essential information. The support level of Nordantech is to be mentioned as being outstanding, very quick and competent as well as very much receptive for suggestions and remarks which are being integrated in their ongoing development process.

Pros

The software has the proper level of not being too complicated and get lost, but to keep the focus on the essentials of tracking a project. It allows to be as flexible as possible, not only in the customizing process but also during the tracking process as such, in case chnages occur. Despite the focus on a minimized hierarchy of packages/activities to be covered, no necessary measure is missing (time, profitability, KPI's ...). On top of that, the desktop presentation and integrated reporting option adds to the positive components.

Cons

A more dynamic - free to be defined - time period selection would give an additional plus to the tool, whereas the constant ongoing development shows a promising direction to still cover smaller gaps going forward.

We were looking for a tool allowing for strategic intiative / measure planning and tracking. Whilst there are many project management tools available, none we found offered the high level capabilities needed for tracking a high number of iniatives throughout the entire company. Falcon is made for this case and you truly notice it. I can highly recommend giving it a try.

Pros

Falcon's key asset is the combination of strategic milestones and financial effects /KPIs. It aggregates all data from alle inaitives into a single point of truth. Falcon allows for tracking and reporting both at a click of a button and C-level ready PPTs. We do not have to relie on spreadsheets to bring both worlds together anymore. We use Falcon for all strategic initiatives. It is further extremely easily implemented.

Cons

Falcon would benefit from a simple analyses / charts. The exports allow for all kinds of analyses. But it would be better if Falcon had them in stock.

We are using the software for almost two years now and it is easy to introduce to new users. It enables us to handle big projects slim and efficient and to have always an eye on the costs.
Furthermore the chat function and support is outstanding.

Pros

To have an easy presentation of tasks, costs and responsibilities. It is perfect for cost and cash flow planning.
In addition the handling is easy and intuitive compared to other PM tools.

Cons

Although the software is not made for Gantt-Charts it would sometimes help to have such visualisation to express projects to stakeholders.

Falcon is extremly intuitive, fast, and performant. The support offered is from another world. Extremely satisfied with the speed of development and support staff going above and beyond to help us out.

Pros

Falcon is the long-awaited and much better alternative to the Excel monsters that usually accompany us in strategy projects. It brings together milestones, financial effects, and status updates. It's ideally suited to offer C-level staff to get an extremely quick overview of how the strategy implementation is going whilst offer other staff the chance to update information easily and quickly with no fuzz. All data is readily available in nifty PowerPoints. It took the team hours to prepare for steering committees before.

Cons

Falcon would benefit from a more detailed, and adaptable workflow feature. The current version offers around 80% of what we need.
