Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The interfaces for project management, portfolio management, and reporting services are always helpful."
"The new UX is great because it has helped remove some of those barriers, so that people who are not classically trained project managers can easily get up to speed in using the tool without having to learn a whole other tool set. It's very intuitive, and very collaborative, and very easy to adapt to their existing work styles."
"We also have integration with CA Agile Central. So we get all the project-related data and the user stories-related data into it and we report on to that: How much funding is there, and how much are the actuals between these two tools?"
"It has highlighted areas in our company that were deficient in resources. It has allowed us to hire, then realize more benefits regarding the number of projects we can get done.​"
"Every customer has achieved a return on investment within the first six months of implementation with Broadcom Clarity."
"We are able to track budgets, and with timesheets, actuals against budgets."
"The most valuable features of Broadcom Clarity PPM are demand, project, and product management."
"For a very long time, Broadcom Clarity had not developed the old interface that Broadcom no and we were not able to see any new features on the system because of the older UEX. We switched to the new UX at the end of March and it needs some time for the user to react to the new features. But if overall main features are being talked about, the financial part of Clarity is really appreciated."
"The product is stable."
 

Cons

"They won't let me put a button on the UI."
"The architecture must be improved."
"Stability is fine, but it's not good."
"I am going to be maintaining both new UX screens, which the blueprints make look like it is going to be really easy, but we would still have to be maintaining new UX screens as well as classic views for those functionalities that are not yet available in the new UX."
"​​I would really like a modern UI. I do not want to get on a user interface and feel like I am in the 1990's.​"
"Financials are okay, but there's a lot of room for improvement in financials.​Financial plans, if those could be made so that you're not always grouping your financial data by predefined attributes, that would be helpful for us."
"Needs Gantt to MS Project link."
"Could be using more updated technologies."
"The platform's initial data entry process is time-consuming. It could be more streamlined."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Broadcom Clarity PPM costs us $500K, and that's only for the installation and kick off within the first year. For each succeeding year, it could cost $200K."
"It is a little bit costly compared to others, but it is mature. Customer should understand this product is geared towards project management, not financial management."
"In recent times, I have been involved in the purchase of the license for this solution. However, the process of procurement changed and the option to buy individual licenses was no more available. The new subscription model was introduced, as a followed-up trend in the industry. The subscription costs put us in shock because it was double what we paid in the past as the yearly maintenance. We negotiated and the price was dropped. But this incident made me observe a lack of transparency from Broadcom in terms of licensing expenses. This isn't unique to Broadcom but seems to be a broader industry issue."
"The subscription is not that expensive."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"We're also moving to the latest version for less than $20,000 for a major corporate system. It's just amazing."
"Better understanding of requirements and how it will be implemented (with number of licenses for a given budget) would help."
"The price of Broadcom Clarity PPM is reasonable. My customers pay a license to use this solution on an annual basis."
