Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Because it’s comprehensive, I only know that it's the best-practice solution."
"PPM being an industry, CA PPM is an industry-leading product and we certainly keep utilizing it, and we don't have a compelling reason or business case to move away from it; in fact, we want to invest in it."
"It helps with our marketing efforts, projects, timing, budgeting, and resourcing, and it also gives us a one-page overview."
"Every customer has achieved a return on investment within the first six months of implementation with Broadcom Clarity."
"It is not the cheapest option, but definitely worth the price (if properly designed and implemented)."
"Demand, Resource, Project Portfolio Management, for my business consulting services, PMO services to other clients."
"It's definitely met and exceeded all our expectations with regards to the tool."
"The near-immediate benefit was having all projects in one place."
"The product is stable."
 

Cons

"The integration needs to be improved with Jaspersoft and Microsoft Project.​"
"In the community, I do not see a lot of answers. A lot of people asking lots of questions, but I am not seeing a lot of answers come through​."
"Many of our clients were not using some of these features, because of complexity and less customization facility, and I would like to see OOTB portlets on this product."
"The Broadcom Clarity PPM dashboard needs improvement , because it's too slow. The look and feel of the platform, including its UX, also need some enhancement."
"I would like to see more features around the data warehouse analytics reporting. At the same time, I would like to see some more functionality on the UI side."
"A huge pain-point is the Jaspersoft reporting. Jaspersoft is extremely cumbersome and our end users dislike it, and are frustrated when using the criteria filter because many times the results returned do not match the results in the main system when using the inbuilt searches."
"The interface needs improvement."
"In terms of what could be improved, the end user interface could be improved to be more intuitive, because we sometimes have issues with customization. Sometimes we are not able to customize everything for the end user's interface, and they require more customization. We should be able to perform a deeper customization here."
"The platform's initial data entry process is time-consuming. It could be more streamlined."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The subscription is not that expensive."
"Cost-wise, the tool is very expensive and some tools might be able to cater to 80% of the functionality provided by Broadcom Clarity PPM but are not as expensive."
"The price point of Broadcom Clarity PPM is less than Planisware. If a customer comes to me, and the cost is the main parameter for the selection of a tool, then I'll recommend Broadcom because cost-wise, they are less than other solutions."
"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."
"For all the functionalities of the solution, the price is in the market range, since it is a product which offers governance issues and supports the digital transformation, which is where we will go in the next year."
"The licensing costs are a little bit high, and unfortunately, it has been a while since I've had that paperwork in front of me. I don't remember how much it was, but it seemed like it was fairly high. It is probably comparable to some of the other solutions because I do know that, for example, on a lot of the AWS stuff, they found that the costs wound up being higher than having some on-prem solution. Comparatively, Clarity is within the price range of other solutions."
"There are different licensing models with Broadcom Clarity PPM. With the software as a service model, you pay as you go, and if you are on-premises, you can buy a perpetual license and an annual fee for maintenance."
"We're also moving to the latest version for less than $20,000 for a major corporate system. It's just amazing."
