My Hours vs Planview: at a glance
What is My Hours?
My Hours 10.3 makes invoice dates editable and lets invoices carry a Detailed report.
10.3 makes the issue date editable on draft invoices, adds account and per-client default due dates, and lets users edit the email subject, preview the email and attach a Detailed report when sending. Daily Track gets a cleaner layout and filters get a redesign. It follows 10.2's lifetime project profitability, 10.1's audit log and 10.0's timesheet periods and locking.
What is Planview?
Planview's feed is strategy thought-leadership, not a product changelog.
The tracked Planview feed is its corporate blog, publishing strategic-portfolio-management essays about the gap between strategy and execution, scenario planning, and AI's effect on delivery visibility. There is no release-note content here: these are marketing and point-of-view pieces, not shipped product changes.
My Hours vs Planview: editorial side-by-side
My Hours
5.0PM
My Hours 10.3 makes invoice dates editable and lets invoices carry a Detailed report.
◆ Current state
10.3 makes the issue date editable on draft invoices, adds account and per-client default due dates, and lets users edit the email subject, preview the email and attach a Detailed report when sending. Daily Track gets a cleaner layout and filters get a redesign. It follows 10.2's lifetime project profitability, 10.1's audit log and 10.0's timesheet periods and locking.
◆ Where it's heading
My Hours keeps shipping every one to three weeks, and the work is concentrated on the billing end: invoices, profitability and approval controls. It is moving from a time tracker toward the system agencies use to bill clients.
◆ Prediction
Expect more invoicing controls, such as recurring invoices or payment tracking, given four straight releases touching billing. The September MCP server has had no follow-up in these entries.
Planview
5.0PM
Planview's feed is strategy thought-leadership, not a product changelog.
◆ Current state
The tracked Planview feed is its corporate blog, publishing strategic-portfolio-management essays about the gap between strategy and execution, scenario planning, and AI's effect on delivery visibility. There is no release-note content here: these are marketing and point-of-view pieces, not shipped product changes.
◆ Where it's heading
The messaging is converging on a single argument, that enterprises have plenty of dashboards but too little decision-ready insight, and positioning Planview as the connective tissue between strategic intent and outcomes. This is narrative direction, not product direction; the feed reveals go-to-market emphasis, not capability changes.
◆ Prediction
Expect more of the same SPM thought-leadership cadence; product trajectory can't be inferred from this feed, which would need an actual changelog or release source to assess.
