Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Broadcom, ServiceNow and others in Project Portfolio Management."The ability to network informally is great for communicating with colleagues."
"The ease of use is valuable."
"It helps all the portfolio managers and the program managers to take stock of the financial situation at the program and portfolio level, because it rolls up all the financials at the product level."
"It's pretty much the source of "the truth." Everything is together, everyone can see all the resources, financial projects, how long a project's going to take. Anybody can go in there and see any information they need about the organization as a whole."
"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."
"There were probably about five or six metrics that we used. As a result, the groups that I supported were consistently ranked at the absolute top of the organization, as we were leveraging these built-in tools for tracking."
"It is easier to use than most other products that are out there."
"Easy to use, visually. The new UX is intuitive."
"The product is flexible."
"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."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"I am impressed with the product's automation which makes everything easy."
"It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us."
"There's a lot of stability in QuickBase...I really appreciate the processing part of QuickBase, especially considering how we're able to get information in real time instead of having to wait."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"The product isn't easy to use. It's not very intuitive."
"Needs Gantt to MS Project link."
"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."
"The Broadcom Clarity PPM dashboard needs improvement , because it's too slow. The look and feel of the platform, including its UX, also need some enhancement."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
". For example, we need a third-party to create and save a document in PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel format. The document saving capability is probably the feature that we most often have to procure from an outside provider."
"Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
