More Basecamp Pros →

"Clarizen's strength is reporting. Aside from reporting, I also like the ability to create customized workflow and custom actions. The workflow rules are handy. For example, you can create custom fields and dependent picklists.""Clarizen Slide Publisher has helped increase transparency and communication with project stakeholders for us.""The feature that has improved our project planning the most is the ability to create custom workflows, which allows us to automate manual tasks that project managers need to perform. The collaboration feature enhances our team's productivity by allowing individuals to see the impact of their decisions on projects owned and managed by other teams.""I like the project management solution. It's really nice."

Cons
"The solution could be more user-friendly.""The product isn't easy to use. It's not very intuitive."

I think it wasn't that easy to use or to figure out because of formatting constraints, or maybe we need to get better at understanding some of its limitations.""It could be more user-friendly. I think it is too overwhelming, initially, in terms of possibilities and so on."
