Broad perspective on strategic management exists but integration challenges hinder efficiency
The product execution part, such as planning and executing, is done through Atlassian tools, specifically Jira. We wanted to upgrade our ability to understand how all these products and teams are working against strategic goals, tracking expenses and time, but the integration between Broadcom Clarity and Atlassian Jira is very cumbersome and not straightforward. Their integration, even with ConnectALL, is just adequate, but it's never going to be great because they are actively trying to sell Rally. To make Broadcom Clarity a perfect product, I think with Jira, nothing can be done. To be fair, I don't know exactly how Rally integration works as I've only read about it, but I know that in marketing papers, it seems amazing with full-on integration, whereas with Jira, it just doesn't work that effectively.

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

"Broadcom Clarity PPM is the only tool that provides that kind of capability to agile as waterfall project management."
"We have flexible scrum teams, developers that will serve on one scrum team for a few sprints or for a project. Being able to track where people go with the resource management features, and making sure that our teams are fully staffed, is important."
"Currently, it is one of the best solutions out there and it has a lot of functionality."
"Visibility to where we are on projects. It tells someone where we are; if we're in trouble or not."
"It brings visibility and one central source of truth, as opposed to a bunch of different processes and tools."
"The most valuable feature is the portfolio functionality because we have the ability to work with different scenarios and many kinds of financial management, we can integrate with ERP, and with other solutions from third-party vendors, and the financial model in Broadcom Clarity PPM is the most valuable aspect."
"This product is good for resource management and project management, and I have managed detailed schedules with great success."
"The app style of the new UI is absolutely fantastic. It's the right way to go. Our users will love it."
"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

"We have not been overwhelmingly happy with that. The documentation wasn’t always correct or thorough, or necessarily updated from version to version."
"Ease of use, the user experience has been our biggest obstacle to overcome."
"Overall portfolio management is something that we would like to improve on."
"The forms (e.g., project properties page) need to be more attractive, colorful, and field more flexibility for validations."
"Scheduling needs improvement."
"The only real improvement from my side - I'm spoiled by things like Trello, with the very easy user interface, things like Basecamp - it's very much a static software project."
"As far as a tool that communicates with resources, with individuals - what they're supposed to do next or what action items came out of what meeting - it's not really used that way. Probably I could envision a way that it would be used that way. Until it's as easy as sending an email, it probably won't be utilized by the resources in that manner."
"They need to improve its mobile compatibility."
"One feature in Celoxis that is quite hard to understand and set up is its access management part."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"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 of Broadcom Clarity PPM is reasonable. My customers pay a license to use this solution on an annual basis."
"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."
"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."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"Though I am unsure, I guess that my company pays around 20 to 25 USD every month for every user."
