Featured Reviews

Delivery Transformation Lead at Banca Transilvania
Broad perspective on strategic management exists but integration challenges hinder efficiency
The product execution part, such as planning and executing, is done through Atlassian tools, specifically Jira. We wanted to upgrade our ability to understand how all these products and teams are working against strategic goals, tracking expenses and time, but the integration between Broadcom Clarity and Atlassian Jira is very cumbersome and not straightforward. Their integration, even with ConnectALL, is just adequate, but it's never going to be great because they are actively trying to sell Rally. To make Broadcom Clarity a perfect product, I think with Jira, nothing can be done. To be fair, I don't know exactly how Rally integration works as I've only read about it, but I know that in marketing papers, it seems amazing with full-on integration, whereas with Jira, it just doesn't work that effectively.

Automation Engineer at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
Minimal workspace has organized policies and student records and improves team collaboration
One of the main frustrations I have is the pricing of Notion. It is really pricey; we even used to call it pretty pricey for an expensive notepad. Notion has a per-user pricing model, but I think if it was per-organization pricing with a flat rate for the whole organization regardless of how many new people join, that would be really awesome. But with their current pricing models, especially for a growing organization when scaling from ten to one hundred employees, it is going to cost a lot of money. It is ten dollars as I remember, but that is a lot because you have to pay it per person. Another issue is that sometimes their markdown editor has a great many features, but sometimes the markdown editor breaks. When I copy something from ChatGPT and paste it there, sometimes the content gets messy. Only sometimes, but when it gets messy, it is really hard to fix things up. I might have to delete the entire thing and do everything by hand. So there are some bugs related to the markdown editor, but that is not always the case. The main pain point I would say is the pricing model. I do not have more needed improvements to add regarding integrations, performance, or mobile experience. Those areas are good in my mind. I have not actually used the mobile app a lot, but from other sides that is all good. The main two needed improvements I would suggest are a better pricing model and fixes for some bugs in the markdown editor.
