We performed a comparison between Broadcom Clarity and JIRA Portfolio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Within the SaaS environment (since CA is supporting it), it has been extremely stable and reliable."
"It makes the whole lifecycle of project management a lot easier than using the legacy systems, which we are retiring every few months because of PPM."
"The most valuable features of Broadcom Clarity PPM are demand, project, and product management."
"For a very long time, Broadcom Clarity had not developed the old interface that Broadcom no and we were not able to see any new features on the system because of the older UEX. We switched to the new UX at the end of March and it needs some time for the user to react to the new features. But if overall main features are being talked about, the financial part of Clarity is really appreciated."
"The interfaces for project management, portfolio management, and reporting services are always helpful."
"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. The financial model in Broadcom Clarity PPM, it's the most valuable aspect."
"Right now, it's the PPM piece of it, the scheduling, the Gantt, the task view."
"The performance is really good."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard where we can see all of our projects and apply filters to shortlist those projects."
"The most valuable features of the JIRA Portfolio are the ease of use, many developers are familiar with it."
"The workflows are the most valuable feature of the solution, whether for tasks, bugs, or chain requests from the site. I also like the solution's GUI, which is easy to navigate for everyone."
"The product's integration capabilities work pretty well, especially considering that more tools are always needed in enterprise-sized businesses."
"The documentation is very well done."
"The tool helps us achieve more within the stipulated timeline and budget."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Portfolio is the visuals it provides rather than Kanban boarded tickets."
"The customized workflows we can define are very valuable. JIRA's private projects is very useful as well. There are also a lot of plugins that they provide."
"The risks issues and changes are not in the new UX yet."
"In the timesheet UX, you can't do things like splitting time, managing overtime versus regular time, very easily. That would be helpful."
"When we upgraded to 15.1, we had some challenges around Jaspersoft, and also some issues with supporting some of the complex process work flows that we had designed internally, that were affected by some changes in the process engine."
"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."
"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 could improve the mobile app. I think right now it only offers time sheet. If they can integrate a lot of other components into it I think that would be helpful for the users."
"The integration needs to be improved with Jaspersoft and Microsoft Project."
"It should be integrated with CA Service Desk Manager so that, when you have time for a ticket or when someone gets assigned a ticket, in PPM it automatically shows that they have to account for that: that they would both enter time in the past and, also, that this is going to take them time in the future."
"The reporting and dashboard capabilities have room for improvement."
"The workflow needs improvement."
"The HR aspect of the solution could be improved."
"Jira has room for improvement in terms of managing various projects and linking requirements centrally under one project. They could include some add-ons that enable you to link all the requirements and put them into a centralized place. That central place should be restricted to a limited set of users with privileges based on user groups with those rights."
"This solution is not able to be integrated with other solutions because you have to upgrade it and pay for more licensing."
"The product could do with more flexible reporting."
"n the next version I would like to see better reporting and safer plugins, as well as easier scalability."
"Our major team does not control or manage JIRA server well since sometimes there is trouble using the solution, which is a problem. The solution's speed needs to be improved."
