Performance of Clarity Across Market Features
Clarity Likes & Dislikes
Our team likes a lot of aspects related to the comprehensive portfolio and project management capabilities, specifically for planning, prioritization and complex management of multiple projects. 1. I particularly like the way this platform allows Clear Visibility into resource allocation, budget and cost per project; 2. Dashboards and Reports are highly configurable and both executives and Project Managers can easily find actionable insights that speed up projects and improve efficiency, minimizing costs; 3. Scalability is another important aspect, and I like the way it it scales easily to manage large amounts of data and users across enterprise deployments
Customizing and flexibility to implement new functions and workflows
Capacity planning has given us the ability to forecast without guesswork and allows us to scale as needed without either overcommitting resources or under committing. Combine this with the fact Clarity gives us real time reporting, we are not surprised by anything. Our process flow is smooth, consistent and predictable.
1. Clarity is very powerful, but it requires significant training and change management for business users to fully adopt. New users might find the interface overwhelming. 2. While the platform is highly configurable, we found advanced customizations to be difficult and time consuming. 3. The UI is functional, but not as sleek or intuitive as newer SaaS tools.
The solution needs lots of DB ressources and seems to be limited to Microsoft SQL. The UI is not very user-friendly, i.e. it is confusing and sometimes shows too much fields and functions within dialog steps.
There is definitely a learning curve to some of the features but Broadcom does offer training and I do with the mobile app have a little more functionality (compared to the desktop suite). Clarity is solid all around.

Clarity - a comprehensive Platform for Aligning Strategy and Execution at Scale
Clarity is an excellent platform that met and exceeded in many ways our expectations! It provides a single source of truth for project and portfolio management, allowing us to align strategy with execution. We can easily track budgets, resources, and performance across multiple projects/initiatives. While the initial implementation requires thoughtful configuration, the long term benefits in visibility, control and governance have been strong and extremely valuable! - MANAGER<50M USDTelecommunicationReview Source
Clarity Centralizes Portfolio Management With Real-Time Reporting And Capacity Planning
I think the thing that best sums up our experience is a quote from the Clarity website "Where did all the money go?". With a sales CRM, a project management tool and each department siloed, the job of managing everything either comes down to one very stressed out person with a fifty tab spreadsheet or a tool like Clarity that handles all the heavy lifting and gives you a clear idea of where everything is. Broadcom knocked it out of the park with this tool. This is the ultimate portfolio manager on the market. - Director1B-10B USDManufacturingReview Source
Clarity PPM - An unbiased review from a decision maker
Clarity PPM was the PPM solution of our choice. Given the hyper growth mode that we were on and with mixed delivery methodologies, we needed a product that suited our Waterfall, Agile and other needs. We finally landed on Clarity PPM and got a Broadcom approved implementation partner to do the implementation. The experience has been really good so far. - ENGINEER<50M USDIT ServicesReview Source
Clarity Enhances Project Oversight but Faces Usability and Performance Challenges
Clarity has been an excellent platform for managing projects and resources at scale. It stands out in helping along strategy with execution and gives leadership visibility into budgets, timelines, and team capacity. While there are a few areas that could be modernized, overall, it’s been a solid solution that has improved planning and accountability across departments. - Chief Executive Officer<50M USDServices (non-Government)Review Source
Clarity is a solid enterprise solution that connects strategy to delivery. It requires effort and investment but it pays off.
We've been using Clarity for portfolio management, and it has become the backbone of how we track strategy and allocate resources across our regions. However, it is not a plug-and-play tool; it takes time to configure.
