Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can find the statistics of the products, share reports, and open boxes. Additionally, its ease of use helps with project management."
"We really like being able to use the SaaS solution so that CA is managing everything except the actual data capture and generating reports."
"Visibility to where we are on projects. It tells someone where we are; if we're in trouble or not."
"It has best-in-class capacity planning and demand management, role-based, individual-based, team-based, and location-based."
"This product is good for resource management and project management, and I have managed detailed schedules with great success."
"Every customer has achieved a return on investment within the first six months of implementation with Broadcom Clarity."
"The dynamism of the application where you can modify it to fit your needs is valuable. For example, you can create fields, metrics, and measures on the fly. You don't have to be limited to what the out-of-the-box format would be. It allows you to generate fields, metrics, and reports off of that with relative ease."
"It is technically fine, is very user friendly, and is a good tool, and we get pretty good support from Broadcom as well."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that its workflows are really impressive."
 

Cons

"We just upgraded to 14.2, and when we went from 13.1 to 13.3, we were very buggy."
"In the future, I would like to see integrated Agile features and better integration with Agile tools."
"You need to get to the right person and that can be challenging."
"The support team actually broke our QA environment without telling us."
"The product's stability needs improvement."
"Tech support and customer service on the part of CA is very lacking."
"CA PPM is not easy to use. Navigating around the menus to find what you're looking for is quite difficult."
"Some people have expressed interest in how we are doing the time tracking stuff because we have a separate time tracking system, and then within TFS we also track hours and our effort levels there."
"The designs provided by Bubble Innovator have certain shortcomings that need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Better understanding of requirements and how it will be implemented (with number of licenses for a given budget) would help."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It is hard for them to say, "I have a person on my team who is going to be available, I am going to move that task to them". That requires a project management license, it doesn't require a team member license, so the licensing model does not sometimes support the way the business world is going."
"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."
"The price of Broadcom Clarity PPM is reasonable. My customers pay a license to use this solution on an annual basis."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"Since I use Bubble Innovator to create applications for my company's clients, I feel the pricing part of the product is fair."
