Strong financial performance underscores the demand for prioritization and productivity improvements across digitalization initiatives
Planview, the leading platform for digital connected work from portfolio planning to delivery, announced record annual recurring revenue (ARR) and bookings in Q2, continuing strong momentum and growth in 2023. ACV Bookings for Q2 and the first half of the year were at a record high approaching 30% growth year-over-year (YoY), driven by both new customer additions and customer expansions across financial services, automotive, and healthcare. At the close of H1 2023, Planview is outpacing its forecasts on several key measures, including bookings, retention, and ARR this year. These results are driven by significant demand from customers who require data-driven insights to effectively prioritize initiatives, allocate capital and utilize resources across digital transformation efforts.
