Efficient project management with roadmap and hierarchy features
I use Broadcom Clarity for end-to-end project and program portfolio management Every customer has achieved a return on investment within the first six months of implementation with Broadcom Clarity. The most valuable features of Broadcom Clarity are the roadmap feature and the hierarchy feature,…

A highly scalable tool that offers users the ability to use it for international projects
The most valuable feature of the solution is the functionality that it offers since the performance part is not so critical as you only use it to upload or download documents and create tasks. Celoxis is not used for very high transaction requirements. My company did not face any issues with Celoxis's performance. Celoxis was quite quick, and its functionality was rich, prompting my company to integrate it with many other project management features for which we previously used several other systems. Celoxis replaced and offered a product that was an integration of Excel and Microsoft Project into a single suite.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"From an overall perspective, we're able to help enable the business by showing where we're spending the money, how we're spending the money, how the investments are moving, what's the benefit and the value."
"It's pretty much the source of "the truth." Everything is together, everyone can see all the resources, financial projects, how long a project's going to take, and anybody can go in there and see any information they need about the organization as a whole."
"Upgrades were pretty straightforward. CA took care of everything, we just did the testing."
"The most valuable features are its compatibility with other programs, easy to use and the report generating feature."
"The ability to have all of the data in one place from risks and issues to resource capacity and actual utilization is going to be really beneficial to our users."
"Broadcom Clarity PPM is the only tool that provides that kind of capability to agile as waterfall project management."
"Since the implementation of CA PPM, we can now ad-hoc a report or dashboard that has all information (allocated project hours, resource lists, risks and issues, and other data, for example) in a matter of minutes."
"Stability is awesome."
"Celoxis is scalable in terms of the number of users or the number of projects that the product can handle. Even the storage that is available for a project is scalable in Celoxis."
 

Cons

"The install packages are the worst I’ve ever seen."
"There are some tool limitations. We had to create some of our own summary competencies to create more of an agile tool concept, or an agile team concept, that they did not really have.​"
"Make transitions easier to implement, e.g. if a new portfolio comes along, it should be easy to integrate to the existing portfolios."
"I think user-friendliness is the key. Right now it's really clunky."
"I would like to see better dashboards within the tool and better integration with SAP BusinessObjects."
"The big improvement for us would be timesheet management."
"It would be good for them to work on the user interface to make it more interactive."
"Another major concern I see is usability. Many users I've worked with, including myself, feel that the application could improve in terms of user-friendliness."
"One feature in Celoxis that is quite hard to understand and set up is its access management part."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"Better understanding of requirements and how it will be implemented (with number of licenses for a given budget) would help."
"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."
"The subscription is not that expensive."
"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."
"Though I am unsure, I guess that my company pays around 20 to 25 USD every month for every user."
