Valuable Features

  • "My organization has benefited from Clarity CA because everyone can do project staffing through it, people in the organization can staff projects by looking at the resources and skills before staffing, change requests can also be done in Clarity CA, and through it you can have an overall view of each project and how a project is doing, so it helped improve my organization."
  • "It is also really easy to use; you just schedule a job and create a package of software, and everything just works."
  • "To me, the most valuable feature of Clarity CA is the timesheet. It's the only feature I use because I just support the tool, and I just enter time on it. Others use Clarity CA for other purposes, such as resource management, project management, scheduling, and financials.The tool also has a fairly simple integration with other systems, so at the moment, it's working fine.I also like that you can write your own code in Clarity CA, and you can make changes to it based on your needs."

Room for Improvement

  • "The software also has too many functions, so it would be good if the functions or features could be split up, rather than needing to buy the whole Clarity CA package, when you'll only use a few of its functions."
  • "Technical support is good, when they get back to you. I usually have to use Google, though, because sometimes we have to meet deadlines and don't have the time to wait for them to get back to us."
  • "What could be improved in Clarity CA is its UI, but I know the Clarity team is working on a new UI, so I'm expecting its UI to get better.The software also has too many functions, so it would be good if the functions or features could be split up, rather than needing to buy the whole Clarity CA package, when you'll only use a few of its functions. This increases the cost of the software, so that's another area for improvement.How Clarity CA is marketed could also be improved."

Pricing

  • "It's fairly expensive to use Clarity CA. There's a yearly license fee for the solution based on the users, and there's a one-time implementation fee as well."
