We performed a comparison between Asana and Broadcom Clarity 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."Asana allows you to create your own project with sub sections with subtasks that can be assigned. The feature I really love is that you can tag people to notify them that there has been progress on a project as well as add attachments."
"It is stable and easy to set up."
"The solution's user interface is very good."
"Asana has a wonderful user experience that is very easy to interact with and has tons of integrations with other products and tools."
"What I like most about Asana is its simplicity. For example: we're not the only ones using it, and we onboard our customers to it, and normally, they have no questions."
"The solution scales well."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It was just a few clicks to get started and to integrate Asana into our existing business system. It took 15 days to fully implement our projects using Asana."
"The solution appears to be quite stable."
"The reporting tools are superior to what was there before, which was someone crunching through an Excel spreadsheet. I've been able to do status reports through the projects, which has given visibility to my manager, and that's an improvement."
"We are able to track budgets, and with timesheets, actuals against budgets."
"You can identify resources by roles."
"It's very good out of the box, without configurations required."
"What has been valuable are the workflows that are there today in order to keep our executive staff informed as well as our program managers and department managers."
"It's definitely improving our ability to make better decisions, and improving the quality of data that we have, to make the decisions for the strategic good of the company."
"It has highlighted areas in our company that were deficient in resources. It has allowed us to hire, then realize more benefits regarding the number of projects we can get done."
"It is easier to use than most other products that are out there."
"The product must reduce the information on the interface."
"Some customizations and functions are still not available, however, so far, they haven't been a deal killer."
"We tried, but we haven't been successful with it. If people don't have the training, it is not easy to use. You need to make sure that the people are trained to use the system. They can provide more resources in the form of webcasts and videos that people can use to train themselves and understand how to use it."
"The documentation for integration could be improved. We require more information to facilitate the integrations."
"The calendar view in Asana has shortcomings and can be improved."
"It would be great if Asana could create a library for each project within the interface."
"You need to have an action plan, otherwise, it won't be as effective."
"Having a quick way to do video inside the platform or video communication could be very handy."
"I think user-friendliness is the key. Right now it's really clunky. We're also looking to upgrade, but an upgrade is not going to fix everything. The new UX is good, but there are still a lot of limitations. Once they work through those kinks and get those limitations removed, we'll be able to upgrade."
"One of the limitations would be mapping our current agile processes in the same tool set without obviously integrating to a different type of tool set within the same portfolio."
"I would like to see more team-based management, and less people-based management; as far as the resource management goes, to do it per team and not per person."
"The Latin American support could be better due to the language barrier."
"Look and feel of the user experience."
"I'd like to see blueprints. I'd also like to see the user interface simplified, and to have a lot of templates available on each blueprint."
"We see it as overhead. Let us collect all the data in one place. Which, it is always nice to have everything in one place, but it does cause that overhead."
"One of the things that have always been a bit painful is the integration with reporting utilities. The current integration is with Jaspersoft, and there are a number of difficulties with that. If you're using out-of-the-box fields and everything, it is a bit slow and clunky. It has a drag-and-drop interface for the users. On the backend side, there is a report designer. They haven't given or allowed me any training on it yet. So, it has been a bit limited in its features. On one of the earlier report utilities, they had one called Actuate, which had VBA as its base programming language, and you could do quite dynamic things behind the scenes, whereas the Jaspersoft interface seems rather locked. So, you're limited in your options. Being a programmer, you like to have room to be able to invent and create rather than just being limited to a few selection boxes."
