A simple interface for ticket creation and incident management,ability to generate reports on incident tickets.We also use ticket templates which makes our life easy to clone them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing I didn't like in CA is it requires more clicks to route between multiple cases. Reports are hard to generate out of CA systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Clarity:

If your organization is moving towards self-service and automation. This product will assist in moving you in that direction.Ensure you set up the assignment groups and assigned users correctly so the tickets can be accurately assigned.Be sure to review all aspects of the system and know what customization can be completed and the complexity of completing them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All requests, changes, and incidents are tracked using the software. It allows the streamline of all IT work within the organization and assignments can be made to anyone within the organization.

What do you like best about Clarity?

with in this ticketing system, tickets can be easily assigned to other teams or other individual. History of resolutions can be seen with each incident. Screenshots can be attached which makes it easier to understand the issue. Total time spent on the incident is also easily visible on each ticket. Almost a complete service management system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clarity?

It is not user friendly to start with but it becomes easy after couple of trials. Also the fact that almost each click is a new page is little painful sometimes. Reports are little challenging too and we have to use other tools to gather more information about the team performance in managing the incidents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Clarity:

There are many other ticketing systems in market today so make sure that CA meets your specific requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clarity solving and how is that benefiting you?

User issues with applications and logged in CA service Management. It is easier to look at the issues and inputs from different teams along with any logs and screenshot of the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clarity?

The primary dislike of CA PPM has been the challenge to provide flexible reporting options. Debugging processes with Gel Scripts is a pain. Have to rely on the expertise of 3rd party teams who develop these scripts for development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Clarity?

Easy to manage financials and teams with Clarity.

Like the connection to MSP that allows to import tasks into it.

FTE management is great feature as well.

Easy way to manage project risk and issues and keep a log of them.

Status reporting is great as well. Easy to copy one status report to the other and apply updates to old one.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clarity?

Loading at times can be slow. Data export to excel can be messy at times. Also - the time scale can be messed up when looking at the detailed plans. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Clarity:

It's a great project management application. Takes a bit to get used to. Once you know what to do - it's a very powerful tool.

It's very great tool to manage FTE resources and vendors. At times the system can be slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clarity solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows us to easily manage financials. I can easily filter by project manager and pull all 30+ of my projects. Being able to see which team members are allocated vs under allocated is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Clarity?

CA PPM is an easy way for our department to track our projects. You can easily see the projects timeline and hours to complete. It was very helpful for us when changing our processes as we could easily identify tasks that we needed to streamline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clarity?

The interface is not the most user-friendly. However, we are about to upgrade to the newer version, so hopefully that will help. The biggest annoyance is the inability to easily move an entire project's timeline. Our projects are constantly changing, so our timelines move around a lot. In order to move a timeline, you have to move every single task's timeframe. It is very time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Clarity:

I wouldn't recommend for lots of small projects. Works very well for large projects with a large number of tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clarity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We look to CA PPM to identify opportunities for process improvement. By looking at reporting, we can identify a task that is bottle-necking the timeline and find ways to fix it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
