Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"They should look at the tool itself because it's a powerful tool, it can do a lot of things, cover a lot of ground quickly, and it can easily be picked up as far as skill sets go."
"As a Project and Portfolio management tool, it allows the company to allocate costs based on projects, goals, or strategies, and you can break down costs a lot easier because of the amount of detail you can put into the project."
"Perfect for centralized planning and viewing the capacity of work of each group which is developing applications"
"The financial portfolio management portion is valuable, and it's really valuable for our executive leadership in order to make decisions on projects and portfolio funding."
"Visibility is the number one feature, as they can see where the bottlenecks are, they can see what their project statuses are, why things are being held up, and have tangible financial specifics for accurate cost recovery and client billing."
"Demand, Resource, Project Portfolio Management, for my business consulting services, PMO services to other clients."
"Currently, it is one of the best solutions out there and it has a lot of functionality."
"The most valuable features are the project, resource, and portfolio management processes are combined in one solution. The data is possible to use either in the one or the other process, and we do not need to enter the data multiple times."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that its workflows are really impressive."
 

Cons

"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."
"​Maybe we need to bring some financial executive reports to our directors and executives. Maybe we can improve the use of Jaspersoft.​"
"The solution is limited in terms of project management, collaboration, and things like connectivity to other applications."
"We're looking at adding the Agile piece to it. I want to make sure that that integration is very smooth."
"The user interface is a little outdated."
"We could use expanded reporting capabilities because right now that is fairly limited in what it does."
"The solution could improve the way the workflow is developed. I think they could be more dynamic because they are in a way static. They're very powerful, but they don't have any interaction with end-users."
"One of the areas that we would improve upon is not necessarily with the tool, but having more tips/tricks on adoption. How to get people outside of the PMO to use the tool and get the information."
"The designs provided by Bubble Innovator have certain shortcomings that need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is hard for them to say, "I have a person on my team who is going to be available, I am going to move that task to them". That requires a project management license, it doesn't require a team member license, so the licensing model does not sometimes support the way the business world is going."
"In recent times, I have been involved in the purchase of the license for this solution. However, the process of procurement changed and the option to buy individual licenses was no more available. The new subscription model was introduced, as a followed-up trend in the industry. The subscription costs put us in shock because it was double what we paid in the past as the yearly maintenance. We negotiated and the price was dropped. But this incident made me observe a lack of transparency from Broadcom in terms of licensing expenses. This isn't unique to Broadcom but seems to be a broader industry issue."
"The price of Broadcom Clarity PPM is reasonable. My customers pay a license to use this solution on an annual basis."
"The price point of Broadcom Clarity PPM is less than Planisware. If a customer comes to me, and the cost is the main parameter for the selection of a tool, then I'll recommend Broadcom because cost-wise, they are less than other solutions."
"Pricing is flexible, depending on the customer and the region."
"Better understanding of requirements and how it will be implemented (with number of licenses for a given budget) would help."
"Cost-wise, the tool is very expensive and some tools might be able to cater to 80% of the functionality provided by Broadcom Clarity PPM but are not as expensive."
"We're also moving to the latest version for less than $20,000 for a major corporate system. It's just amazing."
"Since I use Bubble Innovator to create applications for my company's clients, I feel the pricing part of the product is fair."
