Find out in this report how the two Project Management Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Clarity PPM's strongest features are project and resource 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."
"It has been able to collect all the data, and in some ways, provide dashboards of aggregated data. "
"The competency and available support are quite good, therefore we do not have any issues with support. Every time that we have a case where we need support, it is clarified right away."
"It has improved communication vertically, with some amount of data to be able to show that more resources are necessary, or why projects aren't moving as fast as management would like. That sort of communication makes my job a lot easier."
"This product is good for resource management and project management. I have managed detailed schedules with great success."
"Upgrades were pretty straightforward. CA took care of everything, we just did the testing."
"It's very good out of the box, without configurations required."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the source linking on the commit level to git."
"The links between tickets are very valuable and the boards I found to be configurable and usable. The boards allow some level of extended configuration and they can be customized according to our project needs. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"Jira has a useful user interface and overall is easy to understand and learn."
"It is very flexible, so we can do pretty much what we want with it."
"The features that we find most valuable are the Workflow, Scrum workflow, and Dashboards."
"The informatics is the most valuable feature. It captures what we need."
"Everything is tracked in one place."
"The most valuable feature of Jira is the reporting feature, which allows us to track our team's tasks."
"I wish patches would be quicker since we're a SaaS customer, and just be a non-event, so we don't have to go through a whole - essentially - upgrade cycle, just to do a patch. As a SaaS customer, I'd like the patch to just happen."
"I would like to be able to do time submission and time approvals on mobile rather than have to go in the system."
"Maybe we need to bring some financial executive reports to our directors and executives. Maybe we can improve the use of Jaspersoft."
"Build more capability and unification into the reporting."
"The Latin American support could be better due to the language barrier."
"Financials are okay, but there's a lot of room for improvement in financials.Financial plans, if those could be made so that you're not always grouping your financial data by predefined attributes, that would be helpful for us."
"Broadcom Clarity PPM should improve how the reports are being generated and contracts management."
"In terms of what could be improved, the end user interface could be improved to be more intuitive, because we sometimes have issues with customization. Sometimes we are not able to customize everything for the end user's interface, and they require more customization. We should be able to perform a deeper customization here."
"Backlog pruning and visualization are poor."
"Jira could improve by making the user interface easier to use and the functionality could be better. While we are managing multiple sprints and other elements of the projects, it's very difficult to manage the labels and other aspects."
"It can have a more high-level view of portfolios. It has quite detailed views, but I would like a high-level view of portfolios. We want to integrate Jira with Microsoft Active Directory, and I don't know how easy or hard it is going to be. I don't know if Jira supports this. We are starting that integration in the last quarter of this year. I hope to find all the required tools for this integration."
"Some of the customizations are definitely a little challenging."
"Stability is an area of concern and it needs improvement, otherwise, it's a good product."
"We'd like to see Jira have more integration with a development ID."
"Jira could be more, for example, like Micro Focus, which is what I mostly work with currently."
"I would love to have more features to make nice documents, like Release Notes or a feature overview, right from JIRA."
