"One of the major pain points for me when it comes to Broadcom Clarity PPM is the new UI. The new UI is very good in terms of functionality and the drag and draw features, but it's not very responsive. When I say that it's not very responsive, what I mean is that sometimes, the tool is not very user-friendly. For example, a user saves a value on the form, but the tool doesn't give any indication to the user that the value has been saved. Some users are moving from the classic UI to the new UI, and end up getting confused because on the classic UI, when you click "Save", it'll save the information and you'll get an indication that it was saved. With the new UI, it auto saves the information, but it doesn't give an indication in the form of a popup box that "this form has been saved", or any type of message indicating that the information was successfully saved. It's been confusing for users who move to the new UI because of that. The users don't understand when the values are being saved or not being saved, even if there's an auto-save feature in the new UI."
"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. If I was to focus on something it would be that user interface; making that something that is a joy to use, instead of something that feels like data entry."
"I am going to be maintaining both new UX screens, which the blueprints make look like it is going to be really easy, but we would still have to be maintaining new UX screens as well as classic views for those functionalities that are not yet available in the new UX."
"A little bit better financial management. Right now it is more accountant-related, the financial management - of course, it's finance, it has to be financial. But it should be a little bit easier for project managers."
"I would really like a modern UI. I do not want to get on a user interface and feel like I am in the 1990's."
"CA Communities need a lot of improvement."
"Their online documentation is okay. It is not great. It is hard to get to some of the answers to the things that we may be running into, such as use cases that we are trying to fix. So, frequently we have to put in tickets."
"The forms (e.g., project properties page) need to be more attractive, colorful, and field more flexibility for validations."
"The timely reminders could be reduced from one mail a day to three mails in a week. This tends to fill up our inboxes a lot."
"Asana has a modern look and feel, particularly its agile project management interface featuring movable cards between columns."
"The product must include more modules for project management."
"Smartsheet could be improved to be a ticketing system. It would be nice to have a system to do everything."
"You were forced to create a new tab rather than add another sheet."
"They should improve the solution's integration with API."
"If there was some way to store more complex files in the system, or if there was a back-end structure where you could store files, that would be ideal."
"The long-term timelines could be improved, especially the visuals on the projection Gantt chart."
"With a large quantity of data, the solution lags a bit."
